Hyatt Extends Loyalty Program to Include Its Luxury Oasis Rentals

When Hyatt announced its investment in Oasis in August, one of the first questions centered on loyalty: Would World of Hyatt members be able to earn and redeem their points by using the Oasis platform? In October, Hyatt seemed to suggest that possibility was close to becoming a reality, as Skift reported. Today, on the one-year anniversary of the debut of the World of Hyatt loyalty program, Hyatt announced that it added Oasis, a serviced home rentals platform, to the program. Now, more than 10 million active World of Hyatt members have the ability to both earn and redeem points at more than 2,000 homes spread out over 20 destinations worldwide on Oasis. That makes Hyatt and its hotel peer, Wyndham, the only two major hotel companies that allow their respective loyalty members to earn and burn points on vacation rentals. AccorHotels, which bought luxury alternative accommodations platform Onefinestay in 2016, has yet to incorporate it into its own LeClub AccorHotels program.
