Another bonus: These stays will count toward the <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"\/hotels\/world-of-hyatt\/hyatt-brand-explorer\/\" rel=\"noopener\">Hyatt Brand Explorer perk<\/a>, helping you earn free night awards along the way.<\/p>\n<h3><span id=\"Hyatt_Vacation_Club\">Hyatt Vacation Club<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>While typically known as a &#8220;flexible vacation ownership&#8221; program, or a timeshare for short, Hyatt Vacation Club properties are also bookable with Hyatt points, and they carry no long-term contract.<\/p>\n<p>Depending on the property you book, it may or may not give you the vibe of a vacation rental home. In certain instances, the room you book at a property may very well look like a hotel room. In other instances, it may look like an apartment. Your mileage may vary, so it's important to pick and choose based on the space you're after.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_140071\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img data-aspectratio=\"600\/338\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-140071 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/awardwallet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Hyatt-VC-KW.webp\" alt=\"Living room in a unit at the Hyatt Vacation Club at Beach House, Key West.\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/awardwallet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Hyatt-VC-KW.webp 960w, https:\/\/awardwallet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Hyatt-VC-KW-300x169.webp 300w, https:\/\/awardwallet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Hyatt-VC-KW-768x432.webp 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><center><em>Hyatt Vacation Club at Beach House, Key West.

This isn't the best use of Chase points, but it's still a convenient one. Plus, there's always the option of cashing out points at 1\u00a2 apiece as a statement credit or booking a vacation rental property through the <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"\/credit-cards\/chase-ultimate-rewards\/chase-travel-portal\/\" rel=\"noopener\">Chase travel portal<\/a>, using points at up to 2\u00a2 each, depending on which cards you have.<\/p>\n<h3><span id=\"Capital_One_Miles\">Capital One Miles<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>There are two ways you can use Capital One Miles to cover the cost of a vacation rental.<\/p>\n<p>First, you can <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"\/credit-cards\/capital-one-rewards\/book-capital-one-vacation-rentals\/\" rel=\"noopener\">book a vacation rental through Capital One Travel<\/a> and pay with Miles. On these redemptions, your Miles will be worth 1\u00a2 apiece. Given that <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"\/en\/point-mile-values\/capital\" rel=\"noopener\">AwardWallet users typically redeem Capital One Miles for 2.04\u00a2 each<\/a>, this isn't the best value redemption out there. However, it's an easily accessible way to book a vacation rental.

Once you make a reservation, you'll have 90 days to apply miles to the charge \u2014 at a rate of 1\u00a2 each.<\/p>\n<p>However, not all vacation rentals will code as travel, so your mileage may vary. Ultimately, this depends on who owns or manages the property you rent, so bear this in mind before you splurge on a property, assuming you're covered with your miles and then getting disappointed later on.<\/p>\n<h3><span id=\"Bank_of_America_Travel_Rewards_points\">Bank of America Travel Rewards points<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"\/blog\/bank-of-america-credit-cards\/\" rel=\"noopener\">Bank of America credit cards<\/a> that earn Travel Rewards also present the opportunity to redeem points for travel bookings. When redeemed for travel, the redemption value of your points is 1\u00a2 each. You need to have at least 2,500 points to redeem, which equates to a minimum $25 travel credit.<\/p>\n<p>Again, this isn't the best way to get outsized value from your points, but it's still an easy way to offset the cost of a vacation rental and make a family vacation more affordable if you don't have points you can use through one of the direct booking methods above.<\/p>\n<h2><span id=\"Final_Thoughts\">Final Thoughts<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Using points and miles to reserve vacation rental properties is a creative way to avoid the status quo of a hotel on your next family vacation.
