It has been exactly 3 months since the previous PointBreaks list was out, which also means my blog has existed in the webosphere for 3 months. Been really caught up with school and have not had the opportunity to travel much, but rest assure come December I will be focusing all my time and energy here.
As you can probably figure out from the title, IHG Rewards Club just released the preview for the latest PointBreaks list for stays during the period of 31 October 2016 – 31 January 2017
You can access the offer here.
PointBreaks is probably the most value for money promotion in the entire hospitality industry where hotels are bookable for just 5000 points per night. Right now IHG is having a 100% bonus for points purchased, so by purchasing points, one can get a room for USD$28.75 ~ SGD$40 a night. This is extremely value for money considering there is an Intercontinental and a few Crowne Plazas on the list.
In this edition of PointBreaks there are more than 127 hotels that cover the entire world. The popular hotels on the list are usually sold out extremely fast, within hours after it is made available for booking.
To be honest, none of the hotels this time caught my eyes. In fact I find the offerings this time to be especially uninspiring and lame. Most hotels are on highways and nowhere near cities, but of course YMMV, so judge yourself:
