Amex Offer: Spend $1,000, Get $250 Back from Homes & Villas by Marriott Bonvoy®

Terms apply to American Express benefits and offers. Enrollment may be required for select American Express benefits and offers. Visit americanexpress.com to learn more.

I’ve written many times about Amex Offers and how much money you can save by redeeming them. Amex offers are one of my favorite things about holding multiple American Express cards. I have saved thousands of dollars on clothing, dining, hotels, airfare, and more. These can be found on any American Express card simply by navigating to the offers section on the site or app.

I don’t normally use The Platinum® Card from American Express for hotel stays (other than those booked in the Fine Hotels & Resorts program), but this offer just popped up again and I might take advantage of it if I can find a property that works.

Spend $1,000, Get $250 Back

This is equivalent to a 25% rebate. Get a one-time $250 statement credit by using your enrolled eligible Card to spend a minimum of $1,000 USD in one or more purchases on property rate and charges incurred at time of reservation at participating Homes &Villas by Marriott Bonvoy® properties from 1/2/2024 to 4/15/2024. Valid only on USD purchases. See terms.

• Offer not valid for stays that are paid for before the promotion start date or after the promotion end date (for example, if the final payment that occurs 30 days before your stay falls outside of the promotion dates, it will not count towards qualification).
• Offer is non-transferable.
• Valid only on purchases made in US dollars.
• Limit of 1 statement credit per Card Member.
• You may not receive the statement credit if we receive inaccurate information or are otherwise unable to identify your purchase as qualifying for the offer. For example, you may not receive the statement credit if (a) the merchant uses a third-party to sell their products or services; or (b) the merchant uses a third-party to process or submit your transaction to us (e.g., using mobile or wireless card readers); or (c) you choose to make a purchase using a third-party payment account or make a purchase using a mobile or digital wallet.
• Purchases may fall outside of the offer period in some cases due to a delay in merchants submitting transactions to us or if the purchase date differs from the date you made the transaction (for example, the purchase date for online orders may be the shipping date). Statement credit will appear on your billing statement within 90 days after 4/15/2024, provided that American Express receives information from the merchant about your qualifying purchase.
• Note that American Express may not receive information about your qualifying purchase from merchant until all items/services from your qualifying purchase have been provided by merchant. Statement credit may be reversed if qualifying purchase is cancelled.
• If American Express does not receive information that identifies your purchase as qualifying for the offer, you will not receive the statement credit.
• Limit 1 enrolled Card per American Express Card online account.
• The enrolled Card account must be active, not past due, canceled, or have a returned payment outstanding to receive the statement credit.
• Any benefit earned from this offer is in addition to the rewards (i.e. Membership Rewards or cash back) earned as part of your existing Card benefits, but your ability to earn spend-based rewards for the purchase will be based on the amount after any statement credit or other discount is applied.
• Amex Offers are available for varying and limited periods of time and are dynamic and personalized.
• If you navigate away from the Amex Offers page, you may see different offers when you return.
• For questions regarding your Card Account, please call the number on the back of your Card.
• By adding an offer to a Card, you agree that American Express may send you communications about the offer.

Anthony’s Take: I am generally not a fan of vacation home rentals like Airbnb or VRBO. If you find something that meets the offer criteria and works for you, this is a good way to save 25% on a $1,000 purchase.

Anthony’s Credit Card Pick: I love many of the benefits of the The Platinum Card® from American Express. I particularly like that it grants me access to many lounges. It has had a prominent place in my wallet for many years now. While it does have an annual fee of $695, it provides many travel benefits and will always be my go-to for lounge access (both Delta Sky Clubs® and Centurion Lounges) and booking airfare from the airlines to earn 5x points (up to $500,000 per calendar year).
