Glamping on points: Under Canvas is now live on World of Hyatt


Hyatt wants to take you on a luxurious camping adventure — almost like a safari.

As of today, the glamping company Under Canvas is officially part of World of Hyatt thanks to Hyatt’s partnership with Mr and Mrs Smith. Under Canvas has camping locations across the country, from Acadia National Park to Moab.

Now, World of Hyatt members can earn and redeem points for nature-filled stays at 13 outdoors-focused locations across the U.S., with stays open for the seasonal camps through 2025.

World of Hyatt members will earn the following, according to a statement from the program:

  • 5 Base Points per $1 spent on room rates
  • Tier Qualifying Nights for each eligible night at Under Canvas Resorts and Ulum Moab
  • The same benefits as Mr & Mrs Smith hotels

Meanwhile, folks who carry the World of Hyatt Credit Card will earn an additional 4 bonus points per $1 spent on room rates when booking through World of Hyatt channels.

TPG compared a variety of dates, and most appear to fall well below our valuation of 1.7 cents per point. So, while this might not be the most valuable use of your World of Hyatt points, it could be a big win for Hyatt loyalists looking to get up and close with some of the United States’ most beautiful parks and natural wonders.

A quick search for Under Canvas Great Smoky Mountains is showing a mid-August stay pricing out at 16,250 points per night for an entry-level Safari tent. Mid-June of summer 2025 is priced at 17,750 points per night.

If you need a little inspiration as to which Under Canvas property to book with points or to go to earn points while soaking in the great outdoors, you might consider the ultra-luxe Ulum Moab in Utah, which also happened to earn a spot on TPG’s list of best new hotels of 2023.

Or, if you’ve been keen to visit Dolly Parton’s “Tennessee Mountain Home,” Under Canvas Great Smoky Mountains is a must-visit glamping site near one of the country’s most magical national parks — and Parton’s incredible country-themed theme park Dollywood.

Just note that since Under Canvas is joining World of Hyatt through Mr and Mrs Smith, award stays at these campsites will be based on a dynamic pricing model and not Hyatt’s standard awards chart.
