Homes & Villas by Marriott Bonvoy Promotion: Earn 40,000 Bonus Points

If you hold Marriott Bonvoy elite status and have a vacation rental on your radar, this week's flash promotion through Homes & Villas by Marriott Bonvoy is worth a look.

From now through April 26, 2026, Marriott Bonvoy elite members (Silver and above) can register to earn 40,000 bonus Bonvoy points on a qualifying stay booked through Homes & Villas by Marriott Bonvoy.

To qualify, you'll need to register by April 26, 2026, book during the April 20–26, 2026 window, and complete a paid stay of at least two consecutive nights between April 27, 2026 and January 3, 2027. There's also a minimum spend of US$2,000 (excluding taxes, fees, and deposits).

For Marriott Bonvoy elite members planning a longer trip or a group getaway, this flat bonus can stack nicely on top of your regular earning.

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

This promotion is exclusively for Marriott Bonvoy elite members holding Silver, Gold, Platinum, Titanium, or Ambassador status. You'll need to register for the promotion by April 26, 2026, then book a paid stay of at least two consecutive nights through the official Homes & Villas by Marriott Bonvoy website during the April 20–26, 2026 booking window.

Your stay must be completed between April 27, 2026 and January 3, 2027, with a minimum qualifying spend of US$2,000. Taxes, booking fees, cleaning fees, security deposits, and add-on services don't count towards that minimum.

A few other things to note. You can only earn one promotional 40,000-point award across all April 2026 Homes & Villas promotions. Members who've opted to earn airline miles instead of Bonvoy points are not eligible, and neither are Free Night or Award redemption stays. Payment must be made by debit or credit card, and points will appear in your account within 72 hours of completing your stay.

How to Maximize the Homes & Villas by Marriott Bonvoy Promotion

The 40,000-point bonus is a flat award on top of your regular earning, so it pairs well with a Marriott Bonvoy co-branded credit card. Canadian cardholders earn 5x points on Marriott stays, while US-issued cards earn 6x.

Combined with your base earn, elite bonuses, and the promotional 40,000 points, a single qualifying stay can generate a substantial Bonvoy haul.

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

Let's say you book a 2-night stay worth exactly $2,000 USD as a Titanium Elite member using a US Marriott Bonvoy card. You'd earn:

• 5x base points = 10,000 points
• 75% elite bonus = 7,500 points
• 6x card bonus = 12,000 points
• 40,000 promotional bonus
  → Total: 69,500 Bonvoy points

That's a significant return from a single stay, and the earning only goes up with a higher booking total. Even at the minimum $2,000 spend, you're walking away with close to 70,000 Bonvoy points when all the bonuses stack together.

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 40,000 bonus Bonvoy points on qualifying stays for elite members, with bookings made between April 20 and 26, 2026, for stays completed by January 3, 2027.

With a minimum spend of US$2,000 and at least two nights required, this promotion is best suited for elite members who already have a trip in mind. The booking window is just one week, so if you're interested, register and book before April 26.
