One question that gets everyone excited – would you stay in an overwater villa in the Maldives? We are sure hoping that answer is a heck yes!
Now, most of us wonder how people can afford a hotel accomodation such as this. They can be thousands of dollars a night and some of us just don’t have that kind of travel budget to spend on lodging. Well, insert travel credit cards to the rescue. These cards allow you to earn and spend points and miles on your favorite travel purchases (such as an overwater villa) without having to spend thousands of dollars a night.
My husband and I got into travel points and miles a few years ago and at the top of my bucket list was an overwater villa in the Maldives. Knowing how spendy these accomodations can be, I wondered if using our points and miles would work! And guess what, it did!
Earlier this year, this amazing credit card – Marriott Bonvoy Boundless® Credit Card had an increased welcome offer of 5 (you heard me) FREE nights when spending the minimum amount required on the card. They don’t run this offer all of the time but when they do, we reccomend you JUMP on it! This is really one of the best offers out there when it comes around. Hopefully, we will see it come around again!
These 5 Free Night Awards allowed us to stay in an overwater villa in the Maldives (Le Meridien Maldives Resort) for nearly FREE! (You will have to flexible on your dates in order to find qualifying nights).
This took a HUGE chunk out of our budget for this trip and allowed us to visit normally very expensive islands for a fraction of the price, all thanks to points and miles. This card (and many others) are extremely valuable in being able to exchange everyday purchases for not so everyday experiences!
