I see this change in rate type on my reservation as well (different than the email confirmation I have), but I was able to get the Club Access Award added by Tweeting the Hyatt team. They did it and then also confirmed it was valid for all registered guests in the room. Worth a shot.

I know a couple of people had asked this previously, We are two adults and two kids, age 6 and age 2. When I tried booking with points it would come back and not give me any options, when I changed the selection to just 2 adults, I get the Grand King as an option, so I've booked that, I do have globalist status, while I dont need a roll-away bed, I will be asking them for a crib. Has anyone else ran into this issue and was a it a problem at time of check and during stay or its not something to worry about ?
I am traveling there in Feb, I did go ahead and book my room for three night using points, and I wanted to get some info on the kid situation before I apply my suite upgrade. Thanks in advance for your thoughts.

I also booked a stay during the Jan sale (booked 2 bedroom ocean view residence) for 4 adults. I also noticed it changed to manager rate special, though I assume it shouldn't be issues to get the stay credit. I'll just have to tweet the Hyatt team.
Has anyone figured out lounge access for globalists on these stays (for the 3rd and onwards adult)? I know the Hyatt rules state 2 adults are included but I wonder if there a way to get the other guests in.

I tend to agree. While they do ask for room# and count guests during breakfast and evening offering, it is likely they don't do much analysis beyond that. Not sure if they even differentiate between adults and children during the guest count.

I will be there this Friday to Monday.
As I posted earlier in this thread, they changed my reservation to a "managers" rate, thus not allowing to add my Exploritst club award certificate. After calling Hyatt a long while back, they spoke to the hotel manager and added it but would not send an email confirmation. I saw some others said they tweeted and had no problem adding this (they may have been Globs) but now I'm getting nervous and will call again today to try and get some written proof. Tweeting as an Explorist may not help but if I do, not sure how to phrase it. I just don't want to get there and have them deny me access. Any advise? I do have the name of the manager who spoke to the Hyatt CSR.
Thanks!

Anyone else gets points denied for alcohol charges to our room? It was nearly half my total bill so a big chunk and I know this has been “subject to local laws” but looking for other data points of people who did get awarded at Baha Mar to try and get a reversal.
