Wyndham Reduces Award Rates for Select Condos [Just 7.5k Points!]

Wyndham Rewards has made a customer-friendly change for its members.

Certain Club Wyndham properties are available for booking at just 7,500 Wyndham Rewards points per night — a 50% savings over the previous Go Free Condo Award rates, as first reported by AwardWallet.

The catch is that these rates — at least for now — only apply to a dozen properties. On the other hand, many of these are in popular destinations and create compelling opportunities for travelers.

Here’s a look at the details.

Wyndham Adds Lower Redemption Tier at Select Condo Properties

Several years ago, the Wyndham Rewards program charged 15,000 Wyndham Rewards points per night at any property in its portfolio that had award availability.

Then, the program nixed the single-rate system and moved to one with 3 different rates — properties can cost 7,500, 15,000, or 30,000 Wyndham Rewards points per night.

These rates even apply for several thousand Vacasa Vacation Rentals and Club Wyndham properties, though these properties were restricted to the 15,000- and 30,000-point-per-night rates, priced per bedroom as opposed to per unit.

However, Wyndham has recently added a new, lower-priced tier for some Club Wyndham properties, and this means members can book 1-bedroom condo units for just 7,500 points per night. This makes for a new sweet spot in the Wyndham loyalty program!

Hot Tip: You can earn Wyndham Rewards points with ease, as points can be transferred at a 1:1 ratio from Capital One Miles and, for Citi ThankYou Rewards, at a 1:1 rate for premium cards and 1:0.7 for no-annual-fee cards.

According to AwardWallet, the following properties have 1-bedroom condo units available at 7,500 Wyndham Rewards points per night:

Several of the properties above, especially those in Kissimmee and Anaheim, boast close proximity to Walt Disney World and Disneyland, respectively.

But even better, you can score these 1-bedroom condo units for even fewer points. Wyndham co-branded cardholders receive a 10% discount on award bookings, which means if you hold one or more of these cards, you’ll be able to book nights in spacious condo accommodations for just 6,750 points per night.

Final Thoughts

This is a great development for Wyndham Rewards members. The ability to book an entire condo — many of them in very desirable locations — for just 7,500 points per night (or even fewer if you hold a Wyndham co-branded credit card!) is a great perk of the program.

And if you have cards in your wallet that earn Capital One Miles or Citi ThankYou Points, it’s easy to earn the points required to book these properties!
