While no incentive travel is happening this year, we strongly believe that, once the world gains some stability, people will travel again and the incentive trips will return stronger than ever. For no gift certificate or virtual tour can compare to the authentic in-person destination experience!

As we all find ourselves in this “sit & wait” position, it would be wise enough to take this opportunity to come up with the “Incentive Destinations Shortlist” for 2021 and onwards. Marbella in Costa del Sol (the shoreline region in the south of Spain) must definitely be on your travel radar because of its resort-like vibe, warm climate that is pretty similar to the one in southern California and, of course, because its hotel scene will for sure become one-of-a-kind in the upcoming couple of years!
