Use Vacation Club Points for Hotels
Vacations don’t always need to take place in faraway destinations. Sometimes, the most sought-after travel locales are closer than you think. Instead of packing for a long-distance vacation, consider nearby options with just as much to see. As an Owner, you can use your Vacation Club Points to reserve a stay at Marriott-branded hotels in Europe via the Explorer Collection.
