South Beach, Miami... Our latest installment reinforcing the power of #incentivetravel brings us to the stunning coastline of Florida, to a destination renowned for its glamorous atmosphere, beautiful beaches and thriving cultural scene, making it one perfect destination for our clients to recognize and reward their top performers. From iconic pastel-colored #ArtDeco architecture lining Ocean Drive to a vibrant nightlife of world-famous clubs and restaurants, #SouthBeach covers the range from excitement to relaxation. Days (and perhaps some very late nights) were filled exactly as each guest defined them, with fine cuisine, a diverse array of art and galleries, spa treatments, world-class golf, catamarans and deep-sea fishing out of the Miami Beach Marina, the Wynwood Art District Food Walking Tour, the South Beach Wine & Food Festival® and more. South Beach means an unforgettable experience for every participant, no matter how they define it, and as we know so well, the personalized #experiencematters. Thanks to the partners who worked so well with us to deliver a successful program once again, including but not limited to… 📋 Michelle Nowosatko, Breen H. and the MARA Global Dimensions, Inc team ☀️ Erick Portillo and everyone at the Nobu Eden Roc Hotel Miami Beach 😎 Amy Hays and Select Shades for a wonderful onsite gifting experience 🍽️ The hard-working staff at our group dining restaurants Baoli, Ole Ole, Ola and Dolce The perfect destination can be different for each group of top performers, and we can't wait to show you even more. Where can we take you next?

It wouldn’t be #incentivetravel season without a good measure of cruising, which combines so many wonderful elements needed for an impactful group experience. For our team, this week includes five days aboard Allure of the Seas, part of Royal Caribbean International’s Oasis class. Our long-time client celebrated 80 years in the family business with their top performers, rewarding the team who does the hard work and achieves the goals that will drive them well into their next 80. From expansive onboard dining and activities to a day in port at #Nassau to a Perfect Day in #CocoCay, this was a week at sea that leaves the indelible and motivating memories our work strives to achieve, knowing how much the #experiencematters. Spanning 16 decks, supported by 2,054 crew, across 2,748 staterooms, and hosting up to 6,826 guests, we make a group of 125 feel special in private receptions, dedicated meeting and hospitality space and special event venues to call our own. It also means plenty of free time to explore the myriad events, activities, shows, spa treatments and excursions that individuals choose to make it perfect for them. As always, we are so grateful for the village that comes together with us each time to take good care of our clients and their guests at every turn, including but not limited to… 🚢 Janica Merene, Kaylee Contreras, Laura Urban and the friendly, energetic staff through the ship and Royal Caribbean Meetings, Incentives and Events team 🚢 Brooklyn Reilly, Karen Devine, CITP and our long-time trusted experts 3D Cruise Partners 🚢 Kelsey Maingot and the Access DMC team in Orlando for getting us to and from the ship on time and comfortably We may be heading into port with this group, but we’ve got so much more to share from adventures this week. Keep in touch and let us know… where can we take you next?

So many places to go, and sometimes that one right destination is so right it’s worth repeating. For decades. For two different clients. That’s exactly the case for two of our long-time clients who each know that the Grand Wailea offers exactly what their teams value, what motivates them to make sure they are part of the celebration every time — enhanced and more enchanting than ever from its just completed $350 Million renovation. We are wrapping up the most recent programs for each, and each guest is again flying away with curated memories, rejuvenated and motivated properly to do their very best. As always, we are grateful for the trusted partners who are as committed as we are to every detail, who know how much the #experiencematters. 🌸 Erin Hill, Marissa Moyer and the entire Grand Wailea ohana 🌸 The Envisions Entertainment & Productions, Inc. crew for the meeting and special event audio-visual expertise 🌸 Tommy Bahama for an impactful, memorable pop-up shop gifting event 🌸 Josh DeSilva, DMCP and his DeSilva Meeting Consultants (DMC) team for getting everyone to and from and managing the wide range of activities of the island for our guests Mahalo for being part of our clients’ success and helping demonstrate with us yet again the power of #incentivetravel. Where can we take you next?

High season for incentive travel takes many to the iconic destination of #Cancun often and for good reason — so many wonderful ways and places to celebrate and reward top performers. Each is a different experience than the others to match the needs of our different clients, and always with the warmest embrace of our local partners and friends who call it home. From #PlayaMujeres to #PlayadelCarmen to #Tulum and more, this week UNICO 20°87° Hotel Riviera Maya was the perfect slice of paradise nestled in #RivieraMaya for our long-time client and 200 of its best customers. Shout out to Irma Yeo, Cynthia Machado and the Unico team for their partnership and support to ensure all of our guests had the memorable experience that fully recognized their success. Grateful as always, too, for Eugenia Esparza, CMS, CES and the the crew onsite from our trusted partner IVI THE DMC for once again welcoming each guest at arrival, ensuring their activities and experience were nothing short of incredible all the way thru their warm farewell at the airport. Motivated ourselves by seeing how much the #experiencematters, onward to the next opportunity to demonstrate the power of #incentivetravel.

With a crew like this, in a place like that, how can we make it even better — to ensure the most impactful week for our client’s top customers celebrating their success together? We know how much the #experiencematters across every moment of an #incentivetravel program, and Kimberly Fecunda Janga, Rodrigo Maza and the entire team at Sandals Resorts International’s #Curacao resort were in lock step to curate every detail and put resources exactly where they mattered most. From the opening night special performance, courtesy of Curaçao Tourist Board, to the final night Rock the Plank beach gala, powered by kim moehamad and the Tourism Management Curacao team, and all of the activities and adventures in between, memories were made for a lifetime. Where can we take you next?
