I'm sure suites are available for booking, so if the price isn't too high then maybe just save your points and pay for the suite. You could also call the hotel, tell them you've got two standard rooms booked on points, and see if they could move you into a suite instead (for the same number of points).
As to whether or not there is plenty to do "there" for eight nights, if you mean at the resort then no, but if you mean on Maui then absolutely yes.

Can you squeeze all of you in one with a rollaway - and then hope for any sort of upgrade when you arrive (even if you have to pay the difference)? I did 5 in a double queen at the Marco Island Marriott - 2 teens, 1 kid and two adults...that was fun!

The rates there are HIGH. For my 6 night stay in March, it would've cost me $3600 US (not including the resort fee, which I need to pay regardless). That's like $4500+ CAD. In points it cost me 200K. That's great value for a hotel award!

Pardon me yes you’re right. For some reason Alan Wong was on my mind...
First stay as Plat please go easy on me 😌. I thought other then the 500 points the other choice varies depending on property? Like you get a bottle of something

My reservation for February (made last summer) now shows a $42 increase as a result of the new fee. On my reservation page, it says, "USD 35 daily resort fee added to room rate includes Internet/bike rentals/intro scuba/Mai Tai drinks/discounts and more!"

if one of the included activities (such as intro to scuba or photo session) was not available during the stay because they were booked out (due to high season high occupancy), would it be easy to get the resort fees waived ?
