Hyatt Miraval resorts are highly rated all inclusive destination resorts and spas.
They offer all meals, snacks, smoothies, coffee, and non-alcoholic drinks included for free.
Kosher meals are available for free as well, be sure to contact the hotel to order from a kosher menu in advance of your stay! According to commenter Ee from last year, “They offer kosher food from a menu from Fresko. All the food has both the Star K and Tartikov hashgachos. There is no extra charge for the kosher food and they allow you to order as much as you want. The kosher food needs to be ordered at least 2 days in advance.”
Wellness and exercise classes are also included, valet parking, and transfers from local airports are free. There is no tipping at any Miraval resort.
You must be at least 18 to stay at a Miraval resort.
There are currently 3 Miraval resorts:
You can call Miraval at 866-792-3395 and ask for the Hyatt Member Free Night promotion. You can’t book this deal online. You can get BOGO nights on awards booked starting today for stays from 11/1/21-1/31/22. You’ll get 1 free night for every award night that you pay for to be used during your stay, so 2 night will cost the price of 1, 4 nights will cost the price of 2, etc.
The BOGO offer is not valid on Fridays and Saturdays and is not valid from December 24 to December 31, 2021.
For example, if you want to spend November 1-3 at the Miraval Berkshires the regular cost would be $2,361 for one adult or $4,446 for 2 adults after hefty taxes and resort fees.
The normal points rate for a standard room is 45K Hyatt points per night for 1 person or 65K Hyatt points per night for 2 people. With the BOGO promotion you’ll pay 45K points for 2 nights for 1 person or 65K points for 2 nights for 2 people. Plus resort fees and taxes are not charged on Hyatt award stays. That’s a value of 6.84 cents per point for 2 adults or 5.25 cents per point for 1 adult.
Guests also get free transfers from Hartford/Bradley airport.
Additionally, when redeeming points you’ll get a $175 resort credit per person per night, though not for the bonus BOGO free night. With a 2 night stay you can use the $350 resort credit to use on activities, premium classes, the spa, alcoholic drinks, etc.
You can also normally redeem 75K points/night for a junior suite (95K with 2 adults) or 105K/night points for a full suite (125K with 2 adults). Those also qualify for the BOGO promotion.
The World of Hyatt credit card is an excellent card and comes with up to 60,000 bonus points in addition to annual free nights, elite status, and promotions. You can read more about the World of Hyatt card here.

In other Hyatt news, you can earn triple points for dining at Hyatt hotels, even when not staying there, from now through 2/10/22.
Hyatt has also announced that their 24 month point expiration policy will go forward as planned starting on 1/1/22, so if you haven’t had activity in 2020 or 2021, you will lose your points on 1/1/22. You can book an award stay, transfer points from Chase, or even just transfer points between members to keep your points active!
Will you take advantage of this deal?
cancellation policy with this offer?
Same as regular award nights. Call and ask about the policy for your dates.
Thanks! I believe you can cancel up until date of stay for full refund of points back under regular award nights?
also don’t you have family in Tucson are you coming on this offer?
Depends on the hotel and dates.
I do, but coming without the kids would be odd indeed.
dw and husband also need time alone this would be a great getaway
Do you know if the “Day of Gratitude” 500pt bonus counts as activity?
It should.
I’m assuming you need to find Hyatt availability with points first which is impossible for the Arizona location
Left a message yesterday and Hyatt called me back. Booked a 4 nite stay BOGO in Tucson Nov 1-Nov 5. Transferred Chase points while on the phone with agent.
Hi Sam, I did the same for the same exact dates. I guess I’ll see you there.
cant reach them such long hold times!
why did you guys choose Tucson location? any particular reason?
I live in San Diego (and actually went to college in Tucson), but getting to Austin is actually a little bit easier (more nonstop flights). Ultimately, I chose Tucson because (i) the reviews on TripAdvisor for Austin of people who had been to Tucson first preferred Tucson over Austin, and (ii) the weather is more likely to be better in Tucson that time of year. I was in Austin in October two years ago for ACL and it was in the 40s and 50s.
let me know what your plans are regarding kosher food and minyanim or if you found anything?
which location is the most scenic or breathtaking?
We recently stayed at the Austin property. The staff is very friendly and helpful. I reached out to them before regarding kosher food options. The resorts chef, Ben personally called me and was very helpful. He ordered food from ‘The Kosher Store’ had it stored in his freezer and had it warmed up as we requested. They also delivered a brand new microwave to my room.
If you are planning a stay, make sure to reach out to them prior and they will work with you to give you an enjoyable experience.
do the suites have a private pool?
which of these cities is my best bet for daily minyan?
I stayed at both Miraval Arizona and Berkshires last year. Arizona had free meal mart meals. Berkshires had a kosher menu from a small New Jersey caterer that was an extra $150 a day. Either way, both properties were very accommodating and the executive chefs took an active interest in making sure I ate well.
Interesting, is the Berkshires upsell an option in addition to the reported free meals from Fresko?
How was the Berkshires food?
I was not offered a Fresko option. Just the $150/day upsell. I opted not to pay the premium for kosher and just had fresh fruits and vegetables and beverages. Kept some cold cuts in the in room fridge and ate those for protein.
Suite upgrades can be used with this promotion?
Globalist upgrades should work.
