You Can Now Cash In on Over-the-top Celebrity Hangouts for Just One Marriott Bonvoy Point

One Marriott Bonvoy point can take you to the stars.

When it comes to loyalty programs, points matter. But with Marriott Bonvoy, quality matters just as much. The hotel group is offering a variety of top-notch celebrity experiences to its members for just one point in its new program: One Point Moment Drops.

Marriott Bonvoy members have the chance to sip unreleased Dos Hombres mezcal with founders (and Breaking Bad co-stars) Aaron Paul and Bryan Cranston, hang out with U.S. women’s soccer sensation Trinity Rodman, uncover a mystery with Ashley Flowers and Brit Prawat of the “Crime Junkie” podcast, and sit in the celebrity Hot Ones seat with host Sean Evans.

“One Point Moment Drops was born from a mission of giving members more access than ever before to coveted experiences,” Jackie McAllister, vice president of Marriott Bonvoy brand and moments marketing, told Travel + Leisure. “We’re always looking at ways to evolve our Moments platform, whether it’s with new collaborations, categories, and more, to give members even more access to amazing once-in-a-lifetime experiences.”

Each of the special experiences will be revealed on the Marriott Bonvoy Moments website, as well as on Instagram and TikTok. The drop dates will be revealed in advance so members have time to prep to redeem them on a first-come, first-served basis. If the timing doesn’t fall on your side, some will also be available to bid on through the auction site, where you can use your points to bid for certain packages. (For example, 10 packages of the Dos Hombres experience will drop on June 14 at noon EDT, while five packages will be auctioned.)

“Here’s a hot tip: make sure you’re logged on to the Marriott Bonvoy Moments site before the drop so you’re ready to roll when the experiences go live,” McAllister said.

Those who aren’t yet members also still have time to join for free — and it doesn’t take much to earn that single point. Points can be earned by staying at one of Marriott Bonvoy’s more than 30 hotel brands, making a single purchase on a Marriott Bonvoy credit card, dining once at one of the Eat Around Town restaurants, or even just taking one qualifying Uber ride or making a qualifying order on Uber Eats.

And these all-star experiences will truly be worth fighting for. For the Dos Hombres experience, members will join Paul and Cranston at Downtown Los Angeles Proper Hotel, a Member of Design Hotels for a mezcal tasting and cocktail demonstration. This includes trying a new award-winning product from Oaxaca, Mexico, that won’t launch to the public until the fall.

For members who score the “Crime Junkie” package, Flowers told T+L, “You'll get to deep dive into a story with Brit and me and uncover the ins and outs of a winding case. This experience promises to take Crime Junkies behind the scenes and keep them on the edge of their seat!”

True-crime fans will also get a behind-the-scenes experience. “We’re pulling back the curtain to show how we obsess over every case,” she added. “For years, people have said they feel like our third best friend when listening to 'Crime Junkie.' This is your chance to be that third best friend and ask all the questions and explore every theory with the OG Crime Junkies. Brit and I can't wait!”

Combined with the soccer and Hot Ones offerings, this collection is one of the most coveted to date. “It’s impossible to pick one I’m most excited about when there are such incredible experiences being offered,” McAllister said. “They each satisfy a different passion point and are equally brag-worthy.”

Marriott Bonvoy Moments has been offering its members exclusive access to packages like these spanning the food, art, sports, and entertainment worlds since 2018.

"Through these unique collaborations we are able to curate experiences that are inspired by and align with our members' passions,” McAllister added. “Members should keep their eyes peeled on our social channels because One Point Moments will drop throughout the year ... which means more unforgettable Moments for just one Marriott Bonvoy point are on tap."
