Chase is once again offering five free night certificates that can be used on properties costing up to 50,000 points per night when you spend $5,000 within the first three months of account opening on the Chase Marriott Bonvoy Boundless card.
They ran this promo back in May and I missed the offer. I believe this is the one of the best, if not the best bonus offer for this specific card.

It's hard to get a room at a decent property domestically for 50k. Handful of real options.
A typical free night certificate from most credit cards is only 35K pts/night. 50K/night certificates, and they give you five is pretty amazing...

It's hard to get a room at a decent property domestically for 50k. Handful of real options.
If anyone is looking for a full breakdown of the best Euro properties for this 50k (+15k) bandwidth for redemption. I have done a full spreadsheet on 20 major euro cities and your best bet.
Ended up keeping the cards as the free night they give is worth the annual fee to me.
From my personal experience, I met the spend requirement around 9/20/23, but didn't see the free nights in my Marriott account until 8/3/23. The expiration date on those free night certificates is 8/3/24.
If you don't want to cancel the card, you can call customer service and see if they will downgrade you to a free card with no annual fee. I've done this often, but then I never use the card again after getting the bonus, so usually, the bank cancels it for me and closes the account after about a year due to inactivity. So I'm not really sure if it's worth doing since the impact to credit score seems to be a wash.
For the record, I've churned at least a dozen cards in the past 10 years, pay off everything in full on time, and my credit is at 820 and increasing.
Applying is a hard pull with chase not a soft one.

However, anybody who gets travel rewards from any airline, any hotel, or generally any kind of travel reward, the problem will arise with any of them. If you book last minute, or if you can only use it when prices are at a max, then any program will not seem as valuable as what others may view it as. This will be true for everything from airline programs to hotel programs...
The Sheraton next to the Royal Hawaiian is not an older hotel in terms of the rooms are more updated and more recently renovated. When I went, in Spring Break with a couple of kids, both Sheraton and Royal Hawaiian were available (I booked months in advance). Sheraton's cash and point price were cheaper (marginally) than the Royal Hawaiian most of the time right up until the very end and then the Sheraton's cash price was actually more than the Royal Hawaiian. However, in general.. don't expect to do the Royal Hawaiian on only the 50K certificate... My booking is more of an exception rather than the norm. However, I know I would of been able to get a decent hotel regardless with the certificates, just depending on which hotel I wanted...
The fanboys keep challenging people who said they couldn't find rooms in certain locations for 50K or even 65K, as if that's somehow subject to opinion. Haven't seen any threadcrapping though.
Not a fanboy... actually bigger fan of Hilton but Marriott has a bigger footprint. People are not challenging the fact you can't get rooms for 50 or 65K for any given point in time. I mean, most people that are even remotely familar with any reward travel for anything would probably know this. The way the posts are worded, they make it seem like this promotion sucks and it is of little value because you can't get rooms for 50 or 65K points which is simply untrue. The truth is that there are very little promotions for ANY hotel program that is better than this one.. right now or even historically... so this promotion is very very good.
Nobody likes bonvoy cause of constant devaluations and poor treatment (relatively) of their elite status members. I'm only gold elite, which is basically nothing in the bonvoy world, but doesn't seem like platinum or even titanium members get great treatment relative to Hyatt or Hilton programs. However, that doesn't take away from the fact that five 50K nights is still a really good deal and probably one of the best hotel bonuses there are...
What value does this card have then?
I think part of the issue is people are not searching correctly? I looked for the entire month of September and almost every day (with points top off) is available at W Hollywood which sounds like a pretty nice hotel except for 2 days of the entire month. I looked at some other property called Westin Bonaventure and all days are available too.. not sure if that's a correct location. The point is if W is available, there will be many many other hotels that are available too.
When possible, I like to search using the monthly calendar view. You can search 1 day flexible dates and it will show the entire month pricing in either points or cash. It doesn't always work though, for some reason, some hotels require specific dates or else it won't show availability.
Other posters agree the way to get max value out of these certs is to have flexibility in location and/or scheduling. My main point is people should look into the points required for the stay they have in mind before jumping on this deal. Not sure why you seem to have a beef with that.
I completely agree with the fact that to get any value out of any travel reward program (except fixed like cashback redemptions) is that you must be flexible. However because of the fact that 50K is actually really high for Marriott free night certificates (most are only 35K) that it's actually very easy for people to use that do their share of travelling. For people who do not travel much and are only looking to do that 1 trip next year and ONLY 1 trip next year, then yes, I concede and I do agree with you that they should look ahead to see if it's available. For everybody else, I don't think it would matter much.
What I mean is that these certificates are very easy to use... most of the time for most people.
