Marriott and MGM Resorts® announced the details of their partnership last month. With it, Marriott Bonvoy® members can earn and redeem points at MGM’s 17 resorts. We did not have a firm date when these properties would be bookable, but the New York-New York Hotel & Casino, MGM Collection showed up earlier this month. Now, three more resorts have popped up on Marriott.com (which brings the total to five when you also include The Cosmopolitan Las Vegas, Autograph Collection, which has been aligned with Marriott for years).
The MGM Grand Hotel & Casino, Excalibur Hotel & Casino, and The Signature at MGM Grand are all now live and bookable through Marriott. Hopefully, we’ll see the other resorts like the Bellagio Hotel & Casino and Aria Resort & Casino added this month. Marriott Bonvoy® awards at these resorts start at 5,000 points per night.

Anthony’s Take: Marriott is continuing to add properties this month and they’ll all hopefully be bookable by March. Some of the points redemption rates seem reasonable.
