IHG Rewards Club has announced that their winter 2015 PointBreaks list will go live tomorrow, Monday, October 26, 2015.
For those of you not familiar, IHG Rewards Club’s PointBreaks promotion is one of the best promotions in the hotel industry. Through this promotion, select hotels are available for just 5,000 points per night. That compares quite favorably to the standard cost of 10,000-50,000 points per night, depending on the type of property.
Furthermore, keep in mind that if you have the IHG® Rewards Club Select Credit Card you receive a 10% refund on award nights, which could lower the cost to 4,500 IHG Rewards Club points per night.
Also, since IHG Rewards Club points can be indirectly purchased for 0.7 cents each, that’s like booking stays at certain hotels for just $35 per night.
Anyway, while the fall 2015 IHG Rewards Club PointBreaks list is live for stays through October 31, 2015, IHG has just published their winter 2015 PointBreaks list. The new PointBreaks list will be valid for bookings and stays between October 26 and January 31, 2016.
The new list should become bookable sometime around mid-morning east coast time on Monday, October 26, 2015. The better hotels tend to sell out pretty quickly, so it pays to be quick. Also keep in mind that last year IHG Rewards Club updated the terms of PointBreaks bookings, and you can only book two stays per hotel per promotion:
Due to the limited availability, each member may only book two PointBreaks® Reward Nights reservations per hotel during the special offer time period.

Bottom line
With ~190 properties participating in this round of PointBreaks, it’s one of the more extensive lists out there. That being said, there aren’t many properties on the list which strike me as especially aspirational. The only InterContinental on the list is one in Egypt, which is also quite inexpensive when paying cash (not surprisingly).
Still, if you happen to be traveling to a destination with a hotel on the list, it is seriously worth considering taking advantage of this offer, as 5,000 points per night is tough to beat.
Do you plan on making a booking at any of the winter 2015 PointBreaks properties?
