Transfering out of Elevate: Possible?

Sorry if this has been covered before, which I’m sure that it has, but nothing came up on my search…

I got the Virgin Barclays card a little while back because I was going to do a PCH trip with the Mrs. flying into SFO and out of LAX. We decided to nix that trip in favor of going to Hawaii instead. So, I really don’t need my Elevate points. Since my home airport is DFW, and using the miles on Virgin Atlantic would be too costly, I really don’t need them as I’m limited to where I could travel. I have plenty of miles on AA, so Hawaiian Airlines doesn't interest me.

Are there any good hotel point conversions out there for my Elevate miles? I know that I can do an exchange for other airlines with a ridiculous devaluation on Points.com, but they don’t have a straight conversion with hotels that I would use. (Hyatt, Marriott, maybe Hilton, etc.) I know about the conversion tool on Webflyer, but a lot of that info is horribly out of date. Plus, they don’t have a conversion for Elevate miles, only VX Atlantic. I’m hoping that this isn’t an indicator that I’m stuck with Points.com, but it is what it is.

Thanks

Nope, it's VX or points.com mostly bust. That being said, a redemption with SQ might not be the worst thing you could do with your points...
