The 500 weekend points are for all cards, not just AMEX. T&C states to allow 6 weeks from end of promo, which leads me to believe it'll be a sweep.

i'll leave it to the lurkers to chime in whether i was correct or not but it seems like you got lucky with the cash & points stay....while there is always a first time, cash & points stays have not counted in the past & i would be surprised to learn that they count here for this promo....

Depends on what type of cash&points the poster is talking about. True C&P (the type that now is rarely seen) doesn’t count for the promo. Cash+Points (i.e. in the same booking alternating nights that are fully paid with points with nights that are fully paid with cash) is eligible for the promo, but only the cash paid nights earn base points (and promo double points).

I was talking about some nights paid with point and some nights paid with cash (when you do a book with points, you have the cash and points option at the bottom of the search result to let you pay for some nights with cash). I'm not award Marriott has other type of cash and points.

The poster said “some nights paid with cash some nights paid with points”! How hard is it to understand that s/he did not luck out, and everything worked as it should?

I'm not award Marriott has other type of cash and points.
to remove any doubt, the poster can confirm if the booking was under a single reservation number or did he/she make a separate points & separate cash booking on consecutive nights....

how hard is it to understand that the poster also says the following????
the poster also states:
so i'm not quite sure what type of booking the poster made....the fact that he/she claims that the cash & points option is available on the same page as the book with points result & the fact that the poster also claims that he/she is not aware of any other cash & points option leads me to believe that the the booking was a traditional cash & points booking & should therefore have not been eligible for this promo....

That’s precisely how one books Cash+Points with Bonvoy, exactly on the same page as a regular award booking.

Since a picture is worth 1000 words, pretty sure we're talking about this:
which I think is a Marriott thing when doing points bookings -- you can choose to use points on some nights and cash for the others.
And while I never used it, I believe what Keyser may be thinking of and is getting this confused with, is on the SPG side besides a straight cash rate and a straight points rate there was also a "cash & points" rate so (just making numbers up for an example) the cash rate might've been $200/night, the points rate 15k/night, or you could do C+P for $100-plus-5k-points per night, but whichever of the 3 you chose, it would apply to all the nights.
If this isn't what you were thinking, then I've just muddied the waters even more and apologize
