There are many ways to redeem points for hotel stays. For example, you can stretch your points for many nights at good-value properties that cost a relatively low number of points. You can also use points to unlock stays at spectacular properties that you couldn’t — or, at least, wouldn’t — book without points.
There are many wonderful hotels and resorts that you can book with points, but this article focuses on points properties that are truly exceptional and next-level special. As such, properties like Japan's Park Hyatt Kyoto, which is amazing but features essentially no award availability, are excluded from the list.
