Accommodation Sponsors for Roger Saad

St Raphael Resort were the official accommodation sponsors for Roger Saad (The biggest DJ name in Beirut Lebanon). Both events took place on 26th & 27th of October at the Seven Seas in Columbia Plaza Limassol.

 



London and Paris Road Show with Prestige Hotels of the World

We were pleased to attend the Paris and London Workshops, organised by Prestige Hotels of the World. Our aim was to get into personal touch with key high profile Travel Agents from both cities. The formats that both events followed were:

A Classical evening workshop where we had a table and were able to showcase our resort to buyers / assistants.
This was then followed by a cocktail dinner, where we had the opportunity to get to know the travel agents in a more relaxed environment.

We would like to thank all of the travel agents who attended both events and a huge thank you to Prestige Hotels of the World for taking care of all the arrangements, in particular Anna Sánchez PR & Events.
