Hyatt question

[elit]

1) Can I combine a anniversary night, together with additional points, to use the certificate at a higher category then just four ? 2) Anybody have suggestions where I can get a good value from the category 1-4 certificate ?

1) don't think so
2) how about at least narrowing down to which hemisphere you ate looking for

They say Andaz Papagayo in Costa Rica is a nice category 4.

Looking at that one, although I'm reluctant to go to Costa Rica weather wise in the summer.

I'm leaving from NYC, and willing to do up to 4-5 hours of flying. Looking for either beach-island, ( without the humidity )or scenic mountains.

Another good tip is to google/use Hyatt's website to see where the Cat 1-4s are. If you're limiting yourself to 4-5 hours, then you're basically saying North/Central America, which should knock out many of the 1-4s to begin with. Find some that are in locations that interest you and then ask/research to see if the properties are actually nice/near activities in those cities.

Good idea. Thanx.

Does the cash part of c+p reservations need to be paid at the hotel, or can it be paid on the phone while making the reservation?

I think at the hotel.

[AJK]

Correct.

[D93]

How long after checkout does the night get credited to my HGP account?

[AJK]

Up to a week.

Is there any way to book a room with points, when online it tells me the hotel is sold out ?
