Remember when planning a summer beach trip meant balancing a mountain of school schedules, camp calendars and peak-season flight prices? By the time you paid for three meals a day, pool drinks and keeping everyone entertained, the final bill—and the sheer noise level around the main pool—could be a total shock. But once you’re finally free from the strict school calendar, late August and September open up a brilliant window to take advantage of the shoulder season, letting you experience some of the world’s best coastal spots when they are at their absolute quietest. If you have been waiting to sneak away for a peaceful, uncrowded getaway, Marriott Bonvoy just dropped a major promotion to make it happen.
The global travel program officially unveiled its Summer All-Inclusive Vacation Deals, slashing rates by up to 20% for Marriott Bonvoy members and up to 15% for non-members on bookings of three nights or more.
The limited-time promotion spans an impressive roster of sun-and-sand destinations across Mexico, the Dominican Republic, Jamaica, Costa Rica and Brazil. Bookings are officially live now through August 27, 2026, covering tropical stays between June 11 and September 30, 2026. Travelers just need to use the promotional code S6058 when checking availability, though actual savings will vary slightly depending on the specific property and season.
While the sale is framed around family travel, the late-summer timing is an absolute goldmine if you’re looking for a more serene, grown-up atmosphere. As the back-to-school rush clears out the summer crowds, these massive resorts transition into incredibly peaceful waterfront sanctuaries.
I actually got to stay at the newly reimagined Marriott Cancun All-Inclusive Resort, right in the heart of the hotel zone, and I was absolutely blown away by the experience. The property sits on a stunningly pristine stretch of beach, with beautiful pools and outdoor lounges positioned perfectly along some of the most scenic spots on the shoreline. What really sets it apart is the incredible variety-packed dining scene. Instead of the repetitive, predictable buffets you find at older all-inclusive properties, guests can experience Kasai Izakaya’s refined Japanese plates, vibrant Yucatan-forward à la carte dining at Casa Madre, and the wood-fired, island-inspired flavors of Hana Polynesian Grill. Even casual cravings are elevated, from gourmet nostalgic bites at Mo’s Burgers & Shakes to an array of upscale, open-air beachside spots perfect for a relaxed bite by the water.

Even at standard rates, the pricing for the Cancun property is surprisingly affordable for the level of premium service you receive, which makes a 20% discount an absolute steal. Every baseline worry is completely handled on-property, covering all your gourmet meals, unlimited premium cocktails, non-motorized water sports and tranquil beachfront access.
Of course, traveling to the Caribbean or Mexico during the late summer means navigating the peak of hurricane season. While the quiet beaches and lowered rates are well worth the trip, it is smart to invest in a comprehensive travel insurance policy when booking. Protecting your investment ensures that even if nature throws a curveball at your itinerary, you can rebook without losing a dime.

If you are a serious points chaser, the math on this promotion gets even better. When you book one of these participating all-inclusive stays using a co-branded Marriott Bonvoy credit card, you can seamlessly stack your rewards. Cardholders automatically earn up to an extra 6X points per dollar on eligible purchases spent directly at participating Marriott properties, which layers right on top of the standard 10X points you earn just for being a Bonvoy member. Between the upfront 20% discount and the massive points multiplier hitting your account after checkout, it is a brilliant window to maximize your travel budget.
Whether you want to park yourself under a quiet beach canopy in Cancun, explore the extraordinary biodiversity of Costa Rica, or check out the crystal-clear waters of Antigua, the portfolio expansion proves that you don’t have to sacrifice upscale dining or premium service to get a worry-free rate.
