WHY IT RATES: Karisma already treats its travel agents quite well, and this is further proof of that. - Rich Thomaselli, TravelPulse Senior Editor


Karisma Hotels & Resorts, an award-winning luxury hotel collection which owns and manages properties in Latin America, the Caribbean and Europe, has a new incentive exclusively for active Gourmet Inclusive® Vacation Consultants and Gourmet Inclusive® Agent Rewards Members - "You Can Have It All."

This program, offered only for bookings at El Dorado Spa Resorts, Generations Riviera Maya, Sensimar Seaside Suites and Hidden Beach Resort, allows active travel agents to earn special Luxury Points per reservation booked and exchange them for luxe products.

The offer is the latest added incentive to Karisma Hotels & Resorts' award-winning Gourmet Inclusive® Vacation Consultant program, which goes beyond industry standards. With the You Can Have It All incentive, travel agents can earn points and choose from a wide range of luxury products to be redeemed with their Luxury Points. Valid agents can expect to receive anywhere from 10 to 30 points per booking, according to the hotel, room category and length of stay, and exchange their points for goods starting at only 60 points.

Luxury merchandise available in exchange for points includes items such as, Bose Bluetooth headphones or speakers, Apple Watches, Gucci purses, Louis Vuitton luggage, Cartier watches, Nespresso Kitchenaid, Canon EOS Rebel camera, and much more.

"Our dedicated travel agents sell luxury travel every day and we felt it was time to give something luxurious for themselves when booking their clients' Gourmet Inclusive vacations at Karisma Hotels & Resorts," said Mandy Chomat, Executive Vice President of Sales & Marketing for Karisma Hotels & Resorts.
