- This replaces the flat 10,000-point offer that ran in August 2026, and the structure is now per night.
What changed from the last Homes & Villas promotion?
Homes & Villas by Marriott Bonvoy ran a different offer in August 2026, paying a flat 10,000 bonus points on a qualifying stay above $1,500. The new offer pays per night instead, at 3,000 points a night up to 12,000, and it adds a requirement the earlier one did not have: you need elite status. Marriott’s terms state the offer is open to “Silver Elite Members or above.” The $1,500 spend floor carried over unchanged.
Per-night structures reward longer trips and punish short ones. Under the old flat offer, a two-night rental at $1,500 earned 10,000 points. The same booking now earns 6,000.
Is 12,000 Marriott points worth $1,500 of spend?
Homes & Villas by Marriott Bonvoy caps this offer at 12,000 bonus points, which is worth roughly $84 at a common 0.7-cent Bonvoy valuation. Against the $1,500 minimum, a four-night stay priced at exactly the floor returns about 5.6% in bonus points on top of whatever your card earns. A two-night stay at the same $1,500 returns 6,000 points, or about 2.8%. The offer pays nearly double for the same money if you stretch to four nights.
That is the whole optimization. Four nights, close to $1,500, book it. Anything shorter and you are leaving half the bonus behind while still clearing the spend requirement.
Who should skip this?
Anyone without Bonvoy Silver Elite status is ineligible for the Homes & Villas offer, and Silver is a low bar that most cardholders already clear. Marriott Bonvoy co-brand cards grant Silver or better, and 10 elite nights earns it outright. Check your tier before you plan around the offer.
The bigger reason to pass is price. Homes & Villas properties are not cheap, and $84 of points does not fix a rental that costs $300 more than the equivalent listing elsewhere. Compare the same dates on other platforms first. Capital One miles cover vacation rental bookings at 1 cent each through its travel eraser, which is a cleaner 1% back with no status requirement and no spend floor.
How do you register for the Marriott Homes & Villas offer?
Registration for the Homes & Villas by Marriott Bonvoy promotion happens on the offer page and must happen before you book. Both the registration and the booking need to be complete by November 13, 2026. Marriott defines the qualifying unit plainly in the terms: a “stay” is “two (2) or more consecutive nights spent at the same property.” Splitting four nights across two homes earns you two separate two-night stays rather than one four-night stay.
What this means for you
Book four nights, not two, and aim to land near the $1,500 floor rather than well above it.
Confirm your Bonvoy tier today. Silver is the gate and a Marriott co-brand card clears it, so this is a quick check rather than a project.
Price the same dates on a competing platform before committing. A 5.6% points return is real and it is also smaller than the gap between two listings for the same house.
The registration deadline and the booking deadline are the same day, November 13. Do both in one sitting.

FAQ
Who qualifies for the Homes & Villas 3,000-point bonus?
Homes & Villas by Marriott Bonvoy limits this offer to Marriott Bonvoy Silver Elite members and above. Members with no elite status do not qualify, regardless of spend.
What is the registration deadline?
Registration and booking must both be completed by November 13, 2026. Registration has to come before the booking, so a stay booked first does not count retroactively.
How many nights do I need to earn the full 12,000 points?
Four nights at the same Homes & Villas property earns the full 12,000 bonus points, since the offer pays 3,000 per night and caps there. A two-night minimum applies to qualify at all.
Does the $1,500 minimum include taxes and fees?
No. The $1,500 spend requirement on Homes & Villas by Marriott Bonvoy is measured before taxes and fees, so the total you pay at checkout will be higher than the qualifying amount.
When is the travel window?
Stays must fall between October 7, 2026 and March 31, 2027. Booking by November 13 is required even for travel late in that window.
Can I split the stay across two properties?
No. Marriott defines a qualifying stay as two or more consecutive nights at the same property, so two nights at each of two homes counts as two separate stays rather than one four-night stay.
The bottom line
A per-night bonus rewards the long booking, and this one tops out at four nights for 12,000 points. Elites planning a week in a rental this winter should register, book four nights near the $1,500 line, and check a competing listing before they do.
