About Award Escape

Tell us how many Marriott Bonvoy points you have, and we show you the stays they cover, rated against what the same stay costs in cash. When points are poor value, we say so.

Who’s behind it

Award Escape is run by Jonathan Kennedy.

I’m a longtime Marriott Bonvoy member with Platinum Elite status. I’ve lived and worked in seven countries, and I’m a father of three. My favorite places to stay are in Thailand.

I started Award Escape to help other travelers make sense of Marriott Bonvoy: what your points can book, and where they go furthest.

How we stay independent

Award Escape is not affiliated with Marriott International. Every booking happens on marriott.com, and our ratings come from the same scoring for every hotel. Read how we make money and how the ratings work, or see what your points cover.
