Club Resort, Club Connections & Member Special Point Charts

3 Must-Visit Destinations in Early 2016

After the excitement of the holidays, why not consider enjoying a getaway between March and May? It's a great time of year to visit a variety of Asia-Pacific destinations, including these three enticing countries:

Australia
As a Member, you can use Club Points to stay at four great properties, including the Sydney Harbour Marriott® Hotel at Circular Quay, where you can enjoy a special offer, Brisbane Marriott® Hotel and Surfers Paradise Marriott® Resort and Spa . When you visit between March and May, the weather is generally still warm enough for the beach, but cool enough to explore outdoors without breaking a sweat.

To best experience the colorful foliage during the autumn season, plan a stay at the Melbourne Marriott® Hotel and take a day trip to the Yarra Valley. Here you can soak in the fall colors while treating yourself to a tasting at one of the area’s many wineries.

Thailand
You can also use your Club Points to enjoy a relaxing stay by the Andaman Sea at one of two Club Resort properties, Marriott's Phuket Beach Club or Marriott's Mai Khao Beach – Phuket. Or you may want to combine a Phuket holiday with a stay on an island along the opposite coast, at the Club Connections location Renaissance® Koh Samui Resort and Spa.

In any of these destinations, you can join in the celebration of the Thai New Year during the traditional Songkran Festival from 13 – 15 April 2016. This annual event features parades, games and water fights meant to symbolically wash off the past year's misfortunes.

Japan
The months of March through May are prime cherry blossom season in Japan, making it an enchanting time to enjoy a stay at Club Connections locations in Tokyo and Okinawa. Before you go, make sure you research the peak viewing season in each destination, as well as the best hanami (cherry blossom viewing) spots, such as the Chidorigafuchi Moat in Tokyo.

Maximize Your Gold Coast Getaway.

Here are a few tips to help you make the most of your Gold Coast holiday:
  • You can fly into Gold Coast via the Gold Coast airport at Coolangatta, or the Brisbane airport (which is a 60 – 90 minute drive away).
  • If you rent a car, be prepared to drive on the left side of the road, in the right side of the car.
  • To travel within the region, you can also use the Gold Coast light rail system.
  • Bring your sunscreen, especially if you're planning to spend time on the area’s beautiful beaches.
  • If you're hoping to visit multiple theme parks, combo tickets may be available for parks owned by the same company.
  • For a change of pace, go inland to the Gold Coast Hinterland, where you'll find 3 national parks featuring sub-tropical rainforest, mountains, waterfalls and rock formations.
  • Australia is home to fascinating wildlife, but even cute animals like koalas and kangaroos can be dangerous, so take care when you encounter them.

To reserve your holiday contact Member Services.
