For IHG One Rewards members, the partnership translates into tangible value. Members can earn points on every qualifying stay when booked through IHG channels and redeem Reward Nights at participating Iberostar Beachfront Resorts, along with on-property perks such as 2 p.m. checkout where available and exclusive savings at more than 65 resorts.
