Hi
I wanted to book the 30K points room in 2022, but unable to find any 2 consecutive days. Has anything seen any 30K points standard room availability in 2022 at all? I searched day by day from Jan-Nov and only saw 2 or 3 30K points standard room on non consecutive days. Did the hotel lock all 30K points standard room? or are all the 30K points room all booked for the entire year in 2022 (is that possible)?
If I wanted to use suite upgrade certificate and 48K points room is available, can I ask my concierge or the hotel to book the 48K points room and pay only 30K points? Or does the 30K points standard room need to be available to book first then apply the suite upgrade certificate?
Thanks!

I just cancelled two standard (30k) rooms checking in Nov 12, checking out Nov 14. Was excited to go with family but alas work commitments have prevailed.

In "normal" years in Big Sur, December is cool, gloomy, and wet. Average high temps are 57°F (about 14°C) and lows are 47°F (about 8°C). It rains frequently and is often cloudy and overcast. It may be a good time to enjoy the solitude and hang out in your room in front of the fireplace but personally I'd be seeking somewhere a little more festive for the holidays.

Shifting around my 2022 plans and was able to get 3 nights next year at 30k in early November. Similar to the previous question, how is this property in early November? I’m weighing between this and the Alila in Napa although that one I have for 4th of July weekend.

Napa will be one big traffic jam during the Fourth of July holiday weekend.
