Hyatt: 2,000 Bonus Points per 2 Nights — July 1–September 7, 2026

Here's the useful part of Hyatt's summer promo: award nights count, so a free-night redemption you've already booked can earn bonus points on top. The catch to know before you plan around it: earning doesn't start until your second Eligible Stay, so a single Hyatt trip this summer, however long, earns nothing on its own.

What qualifies:

• Registration: required between June 22 and September 1, 2026 (register before your stay; stays completed before registration don't count)
• Stay window: July 1 to September 7, 2026 (stays must be completed by March 7, 2027)
• Eligible stays: a paid Eligible Rate or a redeemed free-night award at participating Hyatt hotels, Mr & Mrs Smith properties, The Venetian Resort, and Homes & Hideaways (award stays count)
• Bonus structure: 2,000 points for every 2 Eligible Nights, beginning with your second Eligible Stay (nights don't need to be consecutive)
• Maximum bonus: 8,000 points (four earning increments of 2,000)
• Posting timeline: 2 to 3 weeks after checkout

If you're already booking summer Hyatt stays, there's no reason to skip registration; the bonus is free on top. Just don't book a throwaway stay only to unlock it, since your first stay earns nothing anyway. One thing to keep separate: Hyatt's buy-points promo (20% bonus, ends July 27) is its own tool, not a combination play with this one.
