I won't be able to return to this resort until after the promo period, but the deal gets even better for the Globalist with a Citi Prestige card who can take advantage of this deal.
The total cost for 4 night stay (Oct 8 - 12 for instance) confirmed in an Ocean Suite would be $1200 (after paying the Ocean Studio rate, confirming upgrade within 24 hours to Ocean Suite, waived resort fees, and $100 resort credit).
That's $300/n all-in for the suite you really want to be in at this resort.
Add in the F&B discount and wow!

To my knowledge - it can no longer be combined. However this particular Andaz and some of the others typically often offer a 4th night free promo through Prive or Virtuoso (however that promotion is currently not available as of right now at Mayakoba - but they have several other Prive promos that are ongoing).

I confirmed this afternoon that Citi has changed it's policy and is no longer allowing 4th night free bookings to be combined with Hyatt Prive - existing reservations before the change are being honored.

Olle Ceviche has been closed, thus making Olle Taco the solo restaurant at the beach pool. Ceviche is being used almost like an overflow of sorts if you want to eat outside. So, if you eat at the pool during the day, well, expect to see much of the same at dinner at Olle Taco.
Casa Amate bar, albeit tiny, is excellent. The ‘house’ itself is very well decorated. The lighting and overall acoustics need a second look. Dinner? Nothing inspiring, food was ok, and unlikely to return on a future stay.

Just tried to call and apply suite upgrade to my existing points reservation, was told this is one of 6 or so properties in the Hyatt system that do not accept suite upgrades for points reservations, one must redeem additional points for suite. Since we don't spend much time in the room, didn't spend the extra points for a suite. (Globalist)

The fact that your in a points reservation should make zero difference to the hotel.
I’d call back and try again or better yet send a message through twitter.
Let us know what happens? I’m highly suspicious that some meaningful devaluations are coming and properties opting out of TSU (especially corporate run properties) could be real evidence of this...

The suites here are fantastic, one of the nicest rooms I've ever had. I would definitely pay up for one.

I was there two weeks ago and used a TSU on an all points stay for 4 nights and received a two category upgrade to a beachfront suite. I found the hotel to be excellent and managed very well. The only issue was the sea weed which the hotel did it’s best to clean up every day and for me was a not a huge problem.
