Earning Coast Rewards Points

Earn Coast Rewards points on every pre-tax dollar you spend at Coast Hotels. Plus, rack up even more points when you dine in a Coast hotel restaurant and charge the balance to your room.

Unlike Marriott Bonvoy, Hilton Honors and other hotel loyalty programs, Coast Rewards does not have a co-branded card, dining program or other additional ways to earn reward points.

Redeeming Coast Rewards Points

Although Coast Rewards doesn’t give you a whole lot of ways to earn points, they offer plenty of options when it comes time for redemption. Use your Coast Rewards points for:

Coast Hotels room vouchers (point value depends on accommodation)
Coast Hotels virtual gift cards ($0.025/point value)
Coast Hotels upgrades (point value depends on accommodation)
Coast Hotels vacation packages (point value depends on accommodation)
Coast Hotels dining vouchers (Canada only, CAD$0.04/point value)
Aeroplan points (1:1 ratio)
Alaska Airlines Mileage Plan miles (1:1 ratio)
Amazon, Best Buy, Gap, Macy’s, Old Navy gift cards ($0.025/point value)
Charitable donations ($0.025/point value)

For most Coast Rewards redemptions, you’ll get at least a $0.025 value per point.

Coast Rewards Tips & Tricks

Choose what kind of points you want to earn. Update your earning preference via your online Coast Rewards account to automatically receive Aeroplan Points, Alaska Airlines Mileage or More Rewards, instead of Coast Rewards points.

Don’t forget to check Member Offers. Save money with exclusive deals and rates, such as free nights at a Coast hotel and gift cards to popular retailers.

Keep your Coast Rewards account active. Simply stay with Coast Hotels at least one night within 24 months, otherwise your points will expire. There is no way to reinstate them.

Bottom Line

Being one of America’s biggest hotel chains, Coast Rewards can be a very valuable tool, especially if you tend to travel a low. With an average value of $0.006 per point, you will get less value than Marriott Bonvoy or World of Hyatt. However, if you just want a simple room without all the amenities, then this loyalty program is a good fit for you.
