This is the second football season Apple Vacations & Occidental Resorts ran a promotion during the “Inside the Huddle” program with the Dallas Cowboys.

Below are pictures of the promotion show taping at the House of Blues in Dallas, and a game attended by Apple Vacations and our top accounts.

Dallas Cowboys players featured on the program will enjoy an Apple Vacation to Riviera Maya staying at the Occidental Grand Xcaret in Royal Service! I can’t wait to get their reviews!

Playa del Carmen

It’s hot and humid – summertime in Mexico. Riviera Maya greeted our group of Apple Vacations’ employees with a wealth of sunshine as we began our three-day Fam (familiarization) Trip, on-the-job training to gain personal experience of the destinations and resorts our company sells. This knowledge means we can help identify the right resort for every customer.

During the Fam Trip, twelve employees from our Chicago and Philadelphia offices participated in pre-arranged site inspections at various resorts. Sometimes an excursion will be on the itinerary, as well as scheduled dinners. Excursions are just as important for us to experience as the site inspections – it gives employees the opportunity to experience a destination and culture off resort.

On our itinerary this time, we have one scheduled excursion to Playa del Carmen, and one scheduled dinner at our host resort- Secrets Maroma. Before checking in, we have a site inspection at Barcelo Costa Cancun followed by Dreams Cancun. Both impress our staff for their value, location, and the buzz of activity that is apparent everywhere in Cancun. Continue reading →
