Whether you’re planning a short summer escape or a longer stay in a home-away-from-home, now’s a good time to consider booking through Homes & Villas by Marriott Bonvoy.
For a limited time, Marriott Bonvoy Elite members can earn 26,000 bonus points on stays of two or more nights booked through Homes & Villas by Marriott Bonvoy when spending at least $2,000 (USD).
You’ll need to register by November 16, 2025, and book between November 10–16, 2025, for stays taking place from November 11, 2025, through December 31, 2026. This promotion applies globally and is valid on paid stays made directly through the Homes & Villas platform.
For Marriott Bonvoy members, especially those chasing elite status or looking to top up their balance, this offer could be useful.
What Is Homes & Villas by Marriott Bonvoy?
The Marriott International hotel chain offers a curated selection of over 100,000 vacation rentals around the globe, in addition to its portfolio of hotel properties.
Homes & Villas by Marriott Bonvoy, which is Marriott’s answer to compete with Airbnb, launched in 2019, and tends to focus on higher-end rentals in each regional market.
The home rental program allows Marriott loyalists to experience unique accommodations with an elevated travel experience as an alternative to the traditional portfolio of Marriott hotels. At the same time, you still have the opportunity to earn and redeem Marriott Bonvoy points.
Staying with Homes & Villas by Marriott Bonvoy earns elite qualifying nights towards your Marriott Bonvoy status, so it’s always worth checking the Homes & Villas platform if you’re in the mood to book a vacation rental instead of a hotel for an upcoming trip.
Just like Airbnbs, the Homes & Villas properties are run by individual owners or management companies and not by Marriott; instead, the rentals are simply stamped with the promise to deliver the same standards you can expect while staying at a Marriott property.
How The Promotion Works
To qualify, you need to register for the promotion and book a paid stay of at least two consecutive nights, with a minimum spend of $2,000 (USD) before taxes and fees, between November 11, 2025, and December 31, 2026.
You can book anywhere in the world, as there are no geographic restrictions. Just make sure your stay falls within the eligible travel window and is booked by the deadline.
Elite members will see even more upside. For example, Platinum Elites will earn a 50% bonus on the base points, and they’ll also receive a 1,000-point welcome gift.
How to Maximize the Homes & Villas by Marriott Bonvoy Promotion
To really stretch this promotion, booking with a Marriott Bonvoy co-branded credit card is a no-brainer. Canadian cardholders earn 5x points on Marriott stays, while US-issued cards earn 6x.
A single booking can easily generate tens of thousands of Bonvoy points when combined with the 26,000 bonus, elite bonuses, and welcome gift.
As per usual, you’ll still earn base points on your stay, as well as elite qualifying nights and bonus points as a Marriott Bonvoy elite member.
If you pay for the transaction with a Marriott Bonvoy co-branded credit card, you’ll also earn points for your Homes & Villas booking.
For example, if you book at a Marriott Homes & Villas property, for every US dollar spent, you can earn:
- 5 base points as a Marriott Bonvoy member
- Bonus points for having Marriott Bonvoy Elite status:
- 10% bonus with Silver status
- 25% bonus with Gold status, which comes as a perk on the Canadian-issued American Express Platinum Card and the Business Platinum Card from American Express
- 50% bonus with Platinum status, which comes as a perk on the US-issued Marriott Bonvoy Brilliant American Express Card
- 75% bonus with Titanium & Ambassador status
- Points earned for using a Marriott Bonvoy credit card:
- 5 points for using a Canadian-issued Marriott Bonvoy American Express Card or Marriott Bonvoy Business American Express Card
- 6 points for using most US-issued Marriott Bonvoy co-branded credit cards from American Express and Chase
For a stay of exactly $2,000 (USD) as a Titanium Elite member, you could earn up to 14.75 points per dollar spent, or a total of 55,500 Marriott Bonvoy points: 5 base points, 3.75 elite bonus points, and 6 points by paying with an eligible US-issued co-branded credit card.
When combined with the 1,000-point welcome gift for Titanium Elite members, you’d be looking at up to 56,500 points for a $2,000 (USD) stay.
Of course, this number would vary if the total cost of your stay is greater than $2,000 (USD). However, it goes to show the amount of value you can extract from this promotion when combined with elevated earning rates through status and credit cards.
Again, while it’s not worthwhile to pursue this promotion solely for the bonus points, if you were going to otherwise make a booking for a home rental, at least you’d end up with a tidy sum of points for your efforts.
Also, keep an eye on Aeroplan eStore, AAdvantage eShopping, or British Airways Avios eStore. Homes & Villas by Marriott frequently shows up on these portals, letting you earn extra airline miles on top of your Bonvoy haul.
And for those with US credit cards, Amex and Chase Offers occasionally dish out sizable rebates on Homes & Villas bookings—just make sure you check your dashboards before you book.
Conclusion
Marriott’s latest Homes & Villas by Marriott Bonvoy promotion offers 26,000 bonus points on paid stays of two nights or more with $2,000 USD minimum booking, booked between November 10 and 16, 2025, for travel through December 31, 2026.
It’s one of the platform’s recurring seasonal promos—and while not as eye-catching as other promotions we’ve seen in the past, it’s easy to access and valuable for anyone planning a summer vacation rental.
If you’ve got a stay coming up, this is an excellent time to lock it in and earn a healthy stash of Bonvoy points along the way.
