Free Hilton Pool Villa Nights in Pattaya, Thailand with American Express Hilton Cards
Last Updated on September 23, 2025 by admin
In a previous post we learned how to get free flights to Thailand. But you can also get free hotel nights in a Pool Villa in Pattaya, Thailand (that’s right: a room with its own private, indoor pool) using AMEX Hilton credit cards. The best current offer on the No Annual Fee Hilton Honors American Express card is 80K HHonors points after you spend 2K within the first 6 months of ownership. Pool Villa rooms start at 40K per night, at least in the off-season. So that’s two free nights! If you apply for the Hilton Surpass American Express card, also offered in the same credit card application link, you can earn 130K Hilton HHonors points. This would give you 3 free nights in a pool villa, but the annual fee is $150; so, essentially 3 nights for $150 or $50/nt using points.
Where is La Miniera Pool Villas Pattaya?
This SLH Resort in the Hilton family is an approximately 14 minute drive away from Central Pattaya; so, not in the most convenient location. But you’re not going to find a room with its own private pool in Central Pattaya.

What’s the Catch?
There’s no catch. Not even an annual fee if you get the no annual fee card version of the AMEX Hilton card mentioned. Just use the card for everyday expenses within the first 6 months of opening the account. The bank is heavily subsidizing your trip.
Conclusion
If you choose to apply for any of the Hilton AMEX cards in this application link, I’ll receive bonus points and you get the same great offer. Thanks in advance if you do, and Happy Swimming!
P.S. Naturally, you can also use Hilton points at the ocean front Hilton on Beach Road in Pattaya; but rooms there start at 60K points a night. Get the Hilton Surpass card with a bonus of 130K points and it would get you 2 nights there, free.
