As frequent travelers, we sometimes like to splurge into Luxury Travel mode. Being an SPG Loyal, these travelogues are loaded with SPG properties, possibly rightfully so. The goal of this section is to indicate the available properties at various exotic locations and how to get the most out of your travel bucks. And while we are at it, don’t forget to check out our section on how to best gather miles and points to maximize the return for those travel dollars in Frequent Traveler Resources.
