Iberostar Flash Sale Offer: up to 35% off
Iberostar Hotels & Resorts is a Spanish global hotel brand primarily known for its four- and five-star beachfront, all-inclusive resorts. Iberostar has a long-term commercial alliance with IHG Hotels & Resorts, with up to 70 of Iberostar’s properties operating within the IHG system under the Iberostar Beachfront Resorts brand. This means you can earn and redeem your IHG points at these hotels. The properties are divided into three distinct segments: Iberostar Waves (family beachfront), Iberostar Selection (premium quality and style), and JOIA by Iberostar (luxury, adults-only).
Iberostar operates more than 120 hotels globally, primarily in coastal locations across Europe, the Americas, and Africa. Iberostar’s city-centre hotels and properties located in Cuba are excluded from the IHG alliance and remain fully independent.
- The Caribbean & Latin America: Strong presence with major luxury all-inclusive resorts in Mexico (e.g., Riviera Maya, Cancun, Cozumel), the Dominican Republic (Punta Cana, Bayahibe), Jamaica (Montego Bay), Brazil, and Aruba.
- Southern Europe: Properties are heavily concentrated in Spain—particularly in the Balearic Islands (Mallorca, Ibiza) and the Canary Islands (Tenerife)—as well as in destinations like Montenegro and Greece.
- Africa: Beachfront locations situated across North Africa (such as Tunisia and Morocco) alongside recent expansions into East Africa (Tanzania/Zanzibar).
Iberostar’s Flash Sale has up to 35% off, and it allows for changes. The offer is valid at hotels in Majorca, Andalusia and the Canary Islands. Valid for bookings made from 3 to 6 July 2026, for stays from 3 July 2026 to 30 April 2027. You can check prices via IHG here.

A 3,000 Avios bonus is available in addition to the usual earning rate of 5 Avios per £1 on the Sunshine and Sips Selection case which features 12 bottles of crisp whites, refreshing rosés and easy-going reds, ready for barbecues and warm evenings.
The offer is available until 7 July. You can see the full contents of the case here.
Langham Hotels loyalty changes
Two years ago, Langham changed its loyalty program to its “Brilliant by Langham” loyalty program. Now there are more changes afoot, with a shift away from transactional rewards toward more experience-focused offerings centred on curated, AI-powered personalisation. The revamped platform, announced at ILTM Asia Pacific 2026, is built around five pillars—Arts, Eats, Destinations, Beats, and Minds—offering members exclusive access to cultural, culinary, and wellness experiences.
- Brilliant Arts: Partnerships with institutions like the Victoria and Albert Museum.
- Brilliant Eats: Focus on signature restaurant experiences.
- Brilliant Destinations: Localised, curated activities outside the hotel.
- Brilliant Beats: Access to concerts and sporting events.
- Brilliant Minds: Wellness programs, including sound healing.
Complementing this, AI will be used to tailor recommendations while supporting, not replacing, the human-centric hospitality model. This overhaul accompanies a global expansion, including upcoming properties in Bangkok, Kuala Lumpur, and Paris.
It will be interesting to see what level of spending is required to earn these rewards and exactly what will be included. So far, the only rewards available are in Hong Kong and cost between 1000-3000 points.
