Hilton Salalah can now be more than 35k. 40k looks pretty normal. From 5-40 in a few years…..savage 800%!
Would love to hear of lower points redemptions near good scuba diving.
Don’t need to be luxury properties, just lower end of the points scale and have decent scuba nearby.
Most of the Red Sea 5k properties (there were a few in Sharm) have been dropped completely from the portfolio. Hurghada is also 20k+ for hotels which were 5k a few years back.
The Hilton Sharks Bay near Sharm is very nice but is a pain for scuba diving as it’s a long drive each way to the boats / naama bay.
There might be other countries which have good diving and a lower points Hilton nearby but I haven’t spotted any.
Thanks for your articles 👍
