Wyndham has announced the acquisition of Fën Hotels, a hotel chain operating in Latin America (with one hotel in the United States). Currently they have 22 properties in 6 countries (majority of the properties are found in Argentina). Fën Hotels will be bookable through Wyndham rewards by the end of 2017, as always all standard rooms with cost a flat 15,000 points per night.

Brooklyn and Costa Rica properties probably the best new options for redeeming for a free night, but there might be better options out there depending on your goals. You can view some of the best Wyndham options for using your 15,000 points at here. Keep in mind the Barclaycard Wyndham card currently offers a 45,000 point sign up bonus.
Wrote about it several days ago, come on Doc, this is TPG-like late 🙂
Hi George,
Must have missed it on your site, I actually wrote this article up a few days ago. It wasn’t time sensitive so I just saved it for a quieter day on the site :). What post of yours is it in? I’ll add a hat tip, not sure how I missed it.
Are the new properties currently book able on Wyndham points?
No, by end of 2017 they will be.
