Grand Hyatt Deer Valley Military & Veteran Discount
Salute to Service: discounted lodging, spa and dining discounts, and — for hotel guests — Deer Valley lift tickets at up to 75% off the window rate.
Grand Hyatt Deer Valley runs a genuine, property-specific military program called "Salute to Service." Eligible service members book discounted lodging through a dedicated Salute to Service portal and get spa and food-and-beverage discounts (alcohol excluded). The standout perk: if you’re staying at the property, you can buy Deer Valley lift tickets at up to 75% off the window rate — much deeper than Deer Valley Resort’s own ~25% military ticket rate.
Eligibility for the portal is broad: active duty, reserve or National Guard, retired military, 100% disabled veterans, and actively serving Department of Defense civilians. And because this is a Hyatt hotel, you can also book the chain-wide Veteran & Military Rate (code MILVET, 10–15% off the standard rate) here — a refundable rate that still earns World of Hyatt points. Since these rates don’t combine, compare the Salute to Service portal rate against MILVET and book the lower.
This is an independent guide — NavyWeek is not affiliated with Grand Hyatt, Hyatt, or Deer Valley Resort, and terms can change at any time. We break down who qualifies, how the portal works, and how the hotel program differs from the resort’s own discount, with links straight to the official sources so you can confirm current terms before booking.

BEST SAVINGS PATH
The smartest route depends on your situation. Answer the question to find your best path, or scan the full decision table below.
Find your best path
1. Are you staying at Grand Hyatt Deer Valley?
Eligible and booking a Deer Valley ski stay? Book Salute to Service lodging via the portal and buy lift tickets at the property at up to 75% off — after comparing the room rate against Hyatt’s MILVET rate (10–15% off), since the rates don’t combine.
Book lodging through the portal and buy lift tickets at the property at up to 75% off the window rate — then rate-shop the room against MILVET, since the rates don’t combine.
The up-to-75%-off ticket benefit requires a Grand Hyatt lodging stay, so without one, the resort’s separate ~25% discount ($189 winter day ticket) is the play.

WHO QUALIFIES

The chain-wide Hyatt Veteran & Military Rate (code MILVET, 10–15% off) is also bookable at this property.

- Retired military — eligible for Salute to Service and the MILVET rate.
- 100% disabled veterans — named explicitly in the Salute to Service program.

- Immediate family — parents, children and legal wards, spouses, and domestic partners are covered on the MILVET rate; Salute to Service family terms are set by the portal.

HOW TO REDEEM
Online at www.hyatt.com
- Go to the Salute to Service portalOpen the dedicated Salute to Service page on hyatt.com (or email SaluteToService@hyatt.com) — this is the property’s own booking path, not ID.me or SheerID.
- Verify eligibility and book discounted lodgingConfirm your status through the portal’s eligibility gate and book a discounted room for eligible dates (stays from November 20, 2024 onward).
- Buy lift tickets at the propertyAs a lodging guest, purchase Deer Valley lift tickets on site at up to 75% off the window rate — the actual discount varies by date and ticket.
- Use the spa and dining discounts during your staySalute to Service also includes discounts on spa services and food and beverage, excluding alcohol.
- Rate-shop against the Hyatt MILVET rateOn hyatt.com, price the same dates under Special Offer Code MILVET (10–15% off the standard rate, refundable, earns World of Hyatt points; Military/Veteran ID or DD-214 at check-in). The rates don’t combine, so book whichever is lower.
HOW IT WORKS
Salute to Service is run by the hotel itself, for eligible stays from November 20, 2024 onward. Booking goes through a dedicated online portal (with email support at SaluteToService@hyatt.com) that verifies eligibility before you get the discounted rate — there is no ID.me, GovX, or SheerID step. The sources confirm discounted lodging but not a fixed room percentage, so treat the room rate as date-dependent and check your dates in the portal.
Keep the three discounts straight, because aggregators blur them: the 75% figure is the Grand Hyatt lodging-guest ticket benefit — it is not a room discount, and it is not Deer Valley Resort’s own ~25% ticket rate. The hotel program’s eligibility list is also broader than the resort’s, naming National Guard, 100% disabled veterans, and DoD civilians explicitly. And coupon-site "Grand Hyatt promo codes" aren’t real — the two genuine paths are the Salute to Service portal and the MILVET rate on hyatt.com.
The chain-wide Hyatt Veteran & Military Rate is the alternative worth pricing: Special Offer Code MILVET takes 10–15% off the Hyatt Standard Rate, is refundable, covers immediate family (parents, children and legal wards, spouses, domestic partners), and is verified with a Military/Veteran ID or DD-214 at check-in. It also earns World of Hyatt points and elite-night credit. Hyatt’s discounted rates are mutually exclusive, so compare the portal rate, MILVET, and any Member or Advance Purchase rate and book the lowest — your points and elite status still apply on eligible rates.
For a Deer Valley ski trip, the deepest total value for an eligible member is usually Salute to Service lodging plus the up-to-75%-off tickets bought at the property. Traveling on official government orders instead? Hyatt’s Government rate (a per-diem-style rate) may be deepest on the room. And if you’re not staying at the hotel at all, use Deer Valley Resort’s own ~25% military ticket rate — a separate offer covered in our Deer Valley Resort guide.

- Hyatt’s discounted rates are mutually exclusive — Salute to Service, MILVET, Government, Member, and Advance Purchase rates don’t combine, so price-shop and book the lowest.

- Hotel rates and terms vary by date and can change at any time — confirm current terms via the Salute to Service portal before booking.
