I have started compiling list of Indian hotels and (general) points requirement.

Can you please tell about the guest policy for reservation by MB points..
As when I try to search for reservation they show availability for 1 adult and 1 child but when I search for 2 adult and 2 child ( age 3 & 5 yrs) they show no availability.. why is it so ?? Did they accommodate only 2 person per room ??

2 adults and 1 child will work. 3 adults will also be acceptable. You can call the property for more information. Ask them how much will it cost extra.

The same rule applies for Accor. They won't allow you to book(depends on the property. some do allow) deluxe rooms (the first category) for more than 3 adults or 2 adults and 2 children. Sometimes, they show you to a higher-category suite room, which could be more expensive than booking 2 separate rooms.

For some properties, it is a rule set by the property and for others it is a rule set by government

I recently had the pleasure of staying at the Abalone Hotel in South Africa, and it was an absolute gem! While it may not be directly associated with Marriott Bonvoy, I highly recommend considering it for your next international adventure. With its breathtaking ocean views, luxurious amenities, and outstanding service, it's a memorable experience worth exploring.
