Miles & points can let you have some pretty incredible experiences for pennies on the dollar. With airline miles you can fly almost any first or business class product in the world, as there are very few aspirational products that aren’t bookable with miles.
Hotels are a different story, though. There are a lot of great points hotels, though the reality is that many boutique and high end brands don’t belong to any of the major hotel groups with loyalty programs. That means there’s no way to redeem points for stays there, short of earning cash back through credit cards and then redeeming that toward a stay.
As you’ll see, these aren’t exclusively intended to be the “best” points hotels that I could possibly stay at, but rather, they also overlap with the places that I hope to visit.
A great solo travel tip spotted this week on One Mile at a Time.
