How to use your Club Marriott membership during Blackout dates?

Club Marriott

Never Miss a Festive Celebration: Your Guide to Club Marriott’s Exclusive Holiday Benefits

The holiday season is almost here – twinkling lights, festive feasts, champagne toasts, and celebrations with the people who matter most. It’s the time of year when dining out becomes truly special, when every meal is an occasion, and when the magic of the season transforms ordinary moments into cherished memories.

As a Club Marriott member, you might have noticed that certain special dates have restrictions on your regular membership card discounts. New Year’s Eve, Valentine’s Day, Christmas—these peak celebration dates are typically blackout periods when your standard 20-30% dining discounts don’t apply. But here’s what many members don’t realize: these blackout dates don’t mean you’re left out of the festivities.

In fact, Club Marriott hotels create something even better for these special occasions—exclusive member benefits, special packages, priority reservations, and festive promotions designed specifically for you. The key is knowing where to find them and making sure you never miss an announcement.

Why Blackout Dates Exist (And Why That’s Actually Good News)

Let’s be honest about why certain dates have restrictions. New Year’s Eve dinners, Valentine’s Day romantic packages, and Christmas galas represent months of planning, special menus, premium entertainment, and extraordinary culinary experiences that go far beyond regular dining. These are the nights when hotels bring out their finest—live music, champagne towers, special performances, premium ingredients, and service that exceeds every other day of the year.

Applying standard membership discounts to already specially-priced festive packages wouldn’t be sustainable for the hotels, and it would mean they couldn’t invest in making these events as spectacular as they deserve to be.

But here’s the good news: Club Marriott hotels don’t just block out these dates and forget about you. Instead, they create member-exclusive festive offers that give you:

  • Priority booking before the general public
  • Special member rates on festive packages
  • Exclusive add-ons like complimentary champagne or desserts

These offers are often MORE valuable than your standard discount would have been—but only if you know about them in time.

The Two Channels You Need to Stay Connected

The festive season moves fast. Tables book out weeks in advance. Special packages have limited availability. Member-exclusive offers often have early-bird deadlines. This is why staying connected to Club Marriott communications isn’t optional—it’s essential if you want to make the most of your membership during the most wonderful time of the year.

1. Subscribe to Club Marriott eDMs (Email Direct Marketing)

Why it matters:

Club Marriott sends carefully curated emails at least twice per month with time-sensitive information you won’t find anywhere else:

What you’ll receive:

  • Festive package announcements 4-6 weeks before major holidays
  • Member-exclusive rates that aren’t advertised publicly
  • Early-bird booking windows (often 2-4 weeks before general release)
  • Limited-time flash offers for last-minute availability
  • New hotel and restaurant openings in the network
  • Seasonal menu previews and chef’s recommendations
  • Birthday month reminders about your special vouchers
  • Voucher expiry alerts so you never waste benefits

How to make sure you’re subscribed:

  • Look for emails from Club Marriott or your specific hotel (check spam/promotions folders)
  • If you’re not receiving emails, contact your Club Marriott office to update your preferences
  • Whitelist the sender to ensure emails land in your main inbox
  • Create a folder for Club Marriott emails so you can reference them easily

Pro tip: Those twice-monthly emails aren’t spam—they’re your VIP backstage pass to the best dining experiences in Asia. Take 2 minutes to read them when they arrive, even if you’re not planning to dine that week. You’ll often discover opportunities you didn’t know you wanted.

2. Turn On Push Notifications in the Club Marriott App

Why it matters:

Push notifications are your real-time alert system for time-sensitive opportunities. While eDMs give you advance planning information, push notifications deliver:

Instant updates about:

  • Flash sales with 24-48 hour booking windows
  • Last-minute availability for sold-out festive events (cancellations happen!)
  • Extended happy hours or surprise member promotions
  • Weather-related specials (rainy day discounts, anyone?)
  • Same-day booking opportunities for spontaneous celebrations
  • Limited-quantity offers that sell out within hours

How to enable push notifications:

  • Open the Club Marriott mobile app
  • Go to Settings or Preferences
  • Toggle on Push Notifications
  • Grant notification permissions when prompted (if you previously denied them, you’ll need to enable them in your phone’s settings)
  • Choose notification preferences (all notifications recommended, but you can customize)

For iPhone users:

  • Settings > Notifications > Club Marriott > Allow Notifications

For Android users:

  • Settings > Apps > Club Marriott > Notifications > Enable

Won’t they be annoying?

Club Marriott is strategic about push notifications – you won’t receive dozens per day. Notifications are sent only when there’s genuinely valuable, time-sensitive information. Most members receive 2-4 push notifications per week, and they’re almost always about offers worth knowing.

If you find certain notification types less relevant, many apps allow you to customize which alerts you receive. But for festive season planning, we recommend keeping all notifications on from October through February.

The Club Marriott App: Your Festive Season Command Center

Beyond just receiving notifications, the Club Marriott app is where all your festive season planning comes together.

Key Features to Check Regularly:

1. The “Member Offers” Section

This is where exclusive member promotions live. During festive season, check this section weekly:

  • Current festive packages with full details and pricing
  • Member-exclusive deals marked with a special badge
  • Photo galleries of previous years’ celebrations to inspire you
  • Direct booking buttons for instant reservations

2. Your Vouchers Tab

Don’t let your certificates expire during the festive rush:

  • See all active vouchers and expiry dates
  • Plan which certificates to use before year-end
  • Check terms and conditions for festive date restrictions
  • Set reminders for vouchers expiring soon

3. Plan with Club Marriott

Book your special events instantly — whether personal or business — directly through the app. From family celebrations to corporate gatherings, you can check venue options, explore menus, and secure your reservations with just a few taps.

4. Your Membership Card

Always available digitally:

  • No need to carry physical cards
  • Easy to show servers for discount verification
  • Includes your membership tier and benefits

Your Festive Season Action Plan

Here’s exactly what to do right now to ensure you don’t miss any festive opportunities:

This Week (Do This Now):

  • Download or update the Club Marriott mobile app (if you haven’t already)
  • Turn on push notifications following the steps above
  • Check your eDM subscription status – look for recent Club Marriott emails in your inbox
  • If no recent emails, contact your Club Marriott office to confirm your email is registered correctly
  • Whitelist Club Marriott emails to avoid spam filters

Browse current offers in the app to see what’s available now

    Real Member Success Stories

    Priya from Singapore: “I used to get frustrated about blackout dates until I turned on push notifications. Last Valentine’s Day, I got an alert about a member-exclusive package at Marina Bay — dinner for two plus a room upgrade for less than I would have paid for just the dinner at non-member rates. Now I actually look forward to festive season emails because I know there’s something special coming.”

    David from Bangkok: “The twice-monthly eDMs are my reminder to actually use my membership! I’m busy and forget about dining out, but when I see ‘New Sunday Brunch Menu’ or ‘Member Christmas Package Available,’ it inspires me to make plans. I’ve booked my New Year’s Eve celebration six weeks in advance thanks to the early email — the regular booking sold out in 48 hours.”

    Mei Lin from Seoul: “I almost missed the Mid-Autumn Festival mooncake preorder because I wasn’t checking the app. Now I have the Offers section bookmarked and check it every Monday morning. Last month I discovered a flash sale — 50% off spa treatments for members only, valid that week. Booked immediately and had the most relaxing afternoon.”

    The festive season is almost here. The tables are being set, the menus are being planned, the champagne is being chilled. The only question is: will you have a seat at the table?

    With eDMs delivered to your inbox and push notifications on your phone, you’ll never miss an opportunity to celebrate in style. Your Club Marriott membership is about to get even more valuable — make sure you’re connected to receive every benefit you deserve.

    Stay connected. Stay informed. Celebrate more.

    Club Marriott — where every celebration is a member celebration.

    Club Marriott Iloilo

    If you love great food, memorable experiences, and the kind of perks that make life just a little more special, let us tell you about something that might just become your new favourite thing: Club Marriott Iloilo.

    Think of it as your VIP pass to the best dining and accommodations across Asia – starting right here at home at the beautiful Courtyard by Marriott Iloilo, and extending to over 350 participating hotels and more than 1,000 restaurants and bars across 16 regions. For just PHP 8,499 a year, you’re unlocking a world of benefits that will pay for themselves faster than you can say “table for two, please.”

    At its heart, Club Marriott is Asia’s most comprehensive food and beverage loyalty program, and your membership gives you 12 months of unlimited access to incredible dining and accommodation benefits. It’s designed for people who appreciate the finer things in life – whether that’s a leisurely Sunday brunch, a romantic dinner with someone special, or a weekend getaway that doesn’t break the bank.

    Let’s talk about where all this magic happens locally. Nestled in the heart of Iloilo Business Park, Courtyard by Marriott Iloilo is more than just a hotel – it’s become a favourite dining destination for locals and travellers alike.

    Runway Kitchen is the hotel’s all-day dining restaurant, and the name itself tells a story. It’s a tribute to the city’s old airport that once stood where the hotel now rises. Here, you’ll find an exciting fusion of Eastern and Western flavors, served up in a bright, airy space that’s perfect for everything from power breakfasts to leisurely dinners. The breakfast buffet alone is worth waking up for, and their international à la carte menu offers something for every craving.

    When you’re in the mood for something more relaxed, the Lobby Bar is your spot. It’s the perfect place to unwind with a expertly mixed cocktail or a refreshing smoothie while you catch up with friends or simply watch the world go by.
