Hidden Gems And Secret Treasures
Unique Hotels In Latin America
If you recognize that '"X' never, ever marks the spot' quote from Indiana Jones, then you're already in the right mindset for this week's treasure hunt in the most unique properties in Latin America!
Patricia Perez-Sahin, Destination Specialist with LatinPlus DMC Group, is back for an engaging excursion into the hidden gems across Latin America. She'll spotlight those rare, 'you don't know unless you know' kinds of places that we all yearn for, those unique resorts and hotels that leave guests speechless yet talking about them for years to come.
This week we're asking you to wear your best explorer gear; how would you best take on an adventure to Latin America? Would you wish for a safari? Feel a bit like Robinson Crusoe? Swab the deck of a boat like a pirate? Hoist the main sail in your best Thurston Howell yacht-owner outfit? Or swoop into our call like Indy Jones himself? The possibilities are endless - so get creative, darlings!
The first five after 3:55 to log into the call (no earlier than 3:55pm, please) will win an early bird gift.
Plus of course, Kelly McAlister with Maui Jim will be rewarding the planner who does it right this week... so engage, be creative, and have fun!

Latin America
The history of Latin America is as colorful as its wildlife and constantly being unearthed by researchers and archaeologists who use the works of art, sculpture, pottery and ancient architecture to learn more about the great empires who once lived there and left no written clue as to their lives.
What we do know is that the rich blend of cultures and beautiful landscapes make it a modern day first-class destination full of surprises around every bend. We’ll visit some of those surprising places this week as we uncover the ’Hidden Gems and Secret Treasures’ of Latin America.
The Guides
You may think you know Mexico, Costa Rica, and the D.R… but Patricia and her team will lead us to the most exotic boutique, luxurious, and environmentally conscious resorts in those destinations that you can imagine. Plus, we’ll take a peek at Panama, visit colorful Colombia, and get authentic in Argentina.
With their collection of DMC partners throughout Latin America, Latin Plus promises the ’insider’s guide’ to the deliciously under-the-radar destinations.
