If there's not a bonus or discount, then you're better off waiting for one or accruing points through other methods.<\/p>\n<p>But there are several situations that could make it worth buying Hilton Honors points. First, buying points can be the easiest (and fastest) way to top off your account if you only need a few more points for a specific award stay. Second, buying enough points for an award stay is sometimes cheaper than paying the cash rate for the same hotel room.<\/p>\n<p>However, if you don't need the points urgently, you could get a <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"\/credit-cards\/hilton-honors\/earn-points-you-can-transfer-to-hilton\/\" rel=\"noopener\">credit card that earns Hilton points<\/a>.

That\u2019s savings you can use for the rest of your Hawaiian vacation.<\/p>\n<h3><span id=\"Waldorf_Astoria_Maldives_Ithaafushi\">Waldorf Astoria Maldives Ithaafushi<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>By now, you probably understand that there are plenty of situations where it\u2019s more cost-effective to buy Hilton points than to pay the cash rate. But here\u2019s one more example, and we saved the best for last. It\u2019s the <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"\/hotels\/hilton-honors\/waldorf-astoria-maldives\/\" rel=\"noopener\">Waldorf Astoria Maldives Ithaafushi<\/a>, one of the most aspirational Hilton properties you can book.<\/p>\n<p>Award rates here are, to put it bluntly, expensive. And they\u2019ve gotten even more expensive now that <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"\/news\/hilton-honors\/250k-standard-night-cap\/\" rel=\"noopener\">Hilton increased the standard room award night cap from 150,000 to 250,000 points<\/a>. If you want to stay at the Waldorf Astoria Maldives Ithaafushi, the lowest award rate you\u2019ll find is 250,000 points per night.<\/p>\n<p>However, if you strategically purchase 250,000 Hilton points for $1,250 or use the 100% bonus promotion to top off your account &#8212; you can save a substantial amount compared to the cash rate. This property, with rare exception, will cost you over $2,000 per night, and sometimes a lot more than that. In this case, buying points easily takes the cake.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_213230\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img data-aspectratio=\"750\/200\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-213230 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/awardwallet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Hilton-Waldorf-1-scaled.png\" alt=\"Waldorf Astoria Maldives Ithaafushi cash rate.\" width=\"750\" height=\"200\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/awardwallet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Hilton-Waldorf-1-scaled.png 2560w, https:\/\/awardwallet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Hilton-Waldorf-1-300x80.png 300w, https:\/\/awardwallet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Hilton-Waldorf-1-1024x274.png 1024w, https:\/\/awardwallet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Hilton-Waldorf-1-768x205.png 768w, https:\/\/awardwallet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Hilton-Waldorf-1-1536x410.png 1536w, https:\/\/awardwallet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Hilton-Waldorf-1-2048x547.png 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><center><em>Credit: Hilton<\/em><\/enter><\/figure>\n<p><strong>Related: <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"\/hotels\/hilton-honors\/do-hilton-points-expire\/\" rel=\"noopener\">Do Hilton Points Expire?<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<h3><span id=\"Buy_Hilton_Honors_points_to_get_a_fifth_night_free\">Buy Hilton Honors points to get a fifth night free<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Another thing to <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"\/hotels\/hilton-honors\/hilton-benefits-we-love\/\" rel=\"noopener\">love about the Hilton Honors program<\/a> is that members with <em><strong>any<\/strong><\/em> status are entitled to the <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"\/hotels\/hilton-honors\/hilton-5th-night-free\/\" rel=\"noopener\">Hilton fifth-night-free benefit<\/a> on award stays.
