Not my experience at all. Haven’t paid cash for a hotel for personal use in years. 4 air 5 night stays on occasion
You probably enough to accrue those points. I'm Platinum Elite with Marriott and have a few hundred thousand rewards points. You need a minimum of 20-30 nights/year to get enough points to cover a vacation or multiple night stay. If they are only going to stay >10 nights a year, its not going to get them far with Marriott or Hilton.

Have you stayed at a JW Marriott or the Ritz? Those are included in Marriott rewards points.
You are correct, and the average reward requirement at a JW is 100k/night or more. An equal quality Hyatt property is ~30k points/night. That is the point I was making.

Recently paid 60,000 pts for the Ritz in Barcelona. That’s a $500 a night hotel on the beach. I’m gold elite which if you have the Marriott CC, is very easy to get.
They just opened a Premium Plus Card. 100,000 pts after a doable spend. Automatic gold with $35,000 a year spend or qualifing nights. It’s a $90 annual fee, but the free room each year makes up for that.
My favorite perk for Marriott gold is the free upgrade at every stay and late check at every stay. Late checkout at 4pm can change an entire vacation. Late flight? No problem. Spend the the day playing around. Shower at 3pm and head to airport. It routinely gives me an “extra day” on vacation.
