Omni reserves the right at any time, in its sole discretion, to terminate the membership of any inactive member account. A member’s account is deemed inactive if such member has not had a Qualifying Stay or redeemed a Free Night Award at a participating Omni Hotel or Resort during the previous twenty-four (24) months.

DEFINED TERMS
QUALIFYING STAYS
A Qualifying Stay is a stay of one or more consecutive nights spent at the same hotel by the member (whether or not a member checks out and checks back in again), during which a Qualifying Member pays a Qualifying Rate during the stay. If a Select Guest member is not named on the reservation prior to departing the hotel, the stay is not a Qualifying Stay. Villas of Amelia Island, The Lodge at Bretton Woods, and Townhomes at Bretton Woods do not participate in Select Guest, therefore stays at these brands are not considered a Qualifying Stay. Stays not eligible to receive Select Guest benefits include, without limitation, any stays booked through an online travel website (e.g. Hotwire, Priceline, Expedia, Booking.com, Hotels.com, Travelocity, and Orbitz), traditional wholesale distributor, or airline.
QUALIFYING RATES
A Qualifying Rate is a rate available to the general public for such night, but specifically does not include the following rates: (1) tours series rates and charter rates; (2) room rates for airline staff and crew where rooms are pre-booked and paid for by the airline or directly; (3) travel-industry staff rates; (4) any employee rates, employee family or employee friends discount rates; (5) other discounted rates; (6) any complimentary, free, traded or bartered night stays, or any stays in connection with gift certificates or other awards or vouchers; and (7) bookings made through an online travel website (e.g. Hotwire, Priceline, Expedia, Booking.com, Hotels.com, Travelocity, and Orbitz). Omni shall determine if a rate is a Qualifying Rate in its sole discretion.
MEMBER
A member is a registered Select Guest member whose name appears on the room reservation and is the overnight guest staying on property. Associations, corporations, and groups are not members. If a member reserves and pays for more than one room, Tier and Award Credits are earned on a maximum of two rooms during such stay. Free night awards may not be transferred from one member to another. Only one member per room, per stay may receive Tier and Award Credits. If two or more members occupy the same room, Tier and Award Credits are awarded only to the member whose name appears on the room reservation. If more than one name is on a single room reservation, Tier and Award Credits are awarded to the member whose name appears first. Members who have any past due balance owing to Omni forfeit any awards earned.
AWARD CREDITS
Twenty (20) award credits are required to redeem for each Free Night Award. Award credit continue to accumulate with each qualified night. Award credits towards a free night become available 5-7 days after check-out. Award credits expire thirty-six (36) months from issue date.
TIER CREDITS
Tier Credits are accumulated on a calendar year basis and used to determine the member tier level. All members will see their Tier Credit balance reset to zero at the beginning of each calendar year.
TIER QUALIFICATION
Tier status is achieved or renewed annually by earning Tier Credits. Tier Credits are earned for qualifying stays. Select Guest members earn One Tier Credit for each night stayed when a qualifying rate is paid during a qualifying stay. (January 1 through December 31):
Gold Level: 0-9 Tier Credits
Platinum Level: 10-29 Tier Credits
Black Level: 30+ Tier Credits
At the end of each year, every member’s Tier Credit accrual is reviewed and their Select Guest membership level is adjusted based upon the ability to meet the specified Tier Credits required of each tier level. Should a member not earn the required number of Tier Credits for each level within a given year, the respective tier status will change.
For example, if a member achieves Platinum Level in August 2023, that level is maintained through December 31, 2024, and is only lost should the member not earn the minimum Tier Credits (10) required for Platinum Level in 2024.
GUARANTEED ROOM AVAILABILITY FOR PLATINUM AND BLACK LEVEL MEMBERS
Omni will guarantee room availability for Platinum Level members who call up to 24 hours prior to the arrival date and for Black Level members who call before 4:00 p.m. on the day of arrival. In order to ensure that the member benefits accordingly from the room availability guarantee, the member must always explicitly request the guarantee at the time of reservation. Limit one room per member. Room type availability and room rates are not guaranteed. If a rate for which you are normally eligible is not available, your reservation is subject to the prevailing rate for the accommodations available. Certain blackout dates will apply for special events; to review the blackout dates, click here.
FREE NIGHTS
Members will earn free night awards as a benefit of our loyalty program.
FREE NIGHT AWARD
One free night award is earned by Qualifying Members for every twenty (20) Award Credits earned. Award Credits are earned by staying Qualifying Nights at a Qualifying Rate at Omni Hotels & Resorts. If a member notices that a Qualifying Stay has not been properly credited to their account, then they may request, within twelve (12) months of such stay (based on the check-out date), an adjustment to their membership account balance. Tier and Award Credits for Qualified Stays are applied 5-7 business days from departure. If there is an error in crediting a member’s membership account for Qualifying Stays, the sole remedy available to such member is the crediting or re-crediting of such member’s membership account in an amount no greater than the number of Qualifying Stays at issue. Omni shall have no other liability for any delay, error or failure in the crediting of Qualifying Stays to a member’s membership account, and in no event shall Omni be responsible or liable for special, consequential, extraordinary or indirect losses or damages, including any lost profits.
Award credits expire thirty-six (36) months from the issue date. Platinum and Black Level members earn double Award Credits on Qualified Stays. Free night benefits are intended for use by the member only. All accommodations are subject to availability at the time reservations are made. When redeeming free night awards, certain blackout dates will apply for special events, to review the blackout dates, click here. Black Level members have access to additional availability. Free night redemption includes taxes and resort fees, if applicable, for a single or double-occupancy room. Other charges may apply and are charged and due upon check-out.
Any "no show" or cancellation made outside the cancellation policy window will result in the member forfeiting their Free Night Award. Omni reserves the right to modify any Tier or Award Credits or Free Night Award postings made in error.
