What happened
Marriott International signed an agreement with ResortPass, a US-based day-access booking platform, to bring day-use access to a selection of Marriott properties around the globe. The announcement, made on May 27, 2026, covers pool sessions, spa visits, wellness experiences, and lounge passes, with optional add-ons like massages and food and beverage offerings. While the agreement is framed as global, no specific brands or properties have been named yet. Pricing, rollout timing, and any Marriott Bonvoy integration are being withheld. ResortPass currently has over 2,700 partners across the US, Mexico, and the Caribbean, with limited Canadian presence including JW Marriott Parq Vancouver and Sheraton Centre Toronto. The move allows guests to access luxury resort amenities without an overnight stay, potentially impacting the value proposition of Marriott Bonvoy status perks and award stays for leisure travelers seeking pool or spa access
