Miami, FL (PRWEB) May 16, 2012

For Royal Caribbean International fans, the world is their oyster – or shell! To celebrate the launch of new 2013-14 itineraries, the cruise line is hosting a “Shell Yourself” Facebook photo contest that will award one lucky winner with a complimentary cruise vacation, plus a trip to Miami to star in their very own professional photo shoot. The contest is a playful nod to Royal Caribbean’s new global brand campaign which taps into consumers’ emotional connection with the ocean via playful imagery of a “shellphone,” a conch shell used as a phone, to illustrate its decree: “The Sea is Calling. Answer it Royally.”

With only a few days left to enter, consumers can submit their entries by sending a photo of themselves posing with a “shellphone” via the “Shell Yourself Contest” tab at http://www.Facebook.com/RoyalCaribbean and telling the cruise line where they’d like to sail and how they’d like to be treated royally. One winner will receive a seven-night cruise for two anywhere Royal Caribbean sails, plus two round-trip tickets to get there. And there’s more – the winner will also receive a one-night trip to Miami to star in a professional photo shoot that may be featured in the cruise line’s new worldwide cruises brochure. The final day for entries is Friday, May 18, 2012.

Inspiration is available on the contest tab page via videos of the new brand campaign, plus a comprehensive map outlining everywhere Royal Caribbean sails – including new itineraries in Europe, Australia, New Zealand, the Mediterranean and Alaska, as well as newly revitalized ships sailing to the Caribbean.

Royal Caribbean International is a global cruise brand with 22 innovative ships, calling on more than 270 destinations in 72 countries across six continents. The line also offers unique cruise tour land packages in Alaska, Canada, Dubai, Europe, and Australia and New Zealand.

Royal Caribbean provides a world-class vacation experience with a wide range of signature onboard amenities, entertainment, and award-winning family programming.

Team Building iPad Scavenger Hunt

Orlando, FL (PRWEB) May 10, 2012

The competitive advantage today goes to businesses leveraging the power of technology to help drive success. And tech-related activities are top team building trends for business events, meetings and conferences nationwide. Always up to speed with the latest and very best, Wildly Different developed the iPad Hunt to help companies build smart-working, successful teams…teams of professionals who are focused on the future and ready for the next big opportunity!

The iPad Scavenger Hunt is a new twist on the traditional team building hunt, featuring exciting interactive tech-driven clues that may involve video, photographs, and/or puzzles to power up the fun! Some clever clues may even involve props or other items, such as a QR code, that must be paired with the iPad in order to solve clues. Nell Gyenes,spokesperson for Wildly Different, says “Corporate team building is at the center of everything we do at Wildly Different. This new hunt will make a great addition to the growing list of team building activities we offer our clients”. This activity is a brilliant stand-out for meetings and businesses looking to experience team building in a whole new way – Updated, Upgraded and Improved.

Like the iPad, this team building activity is loaded with new features to meet demands of corporate and business clients looking for fresh, innovative ways to help their top people achieve their personal and professional best. For many groups, team activities provide the encouragement and motivation to pursue individual goals – while also enabling them to be better and stronger team players back at the office. ‘Play Outside The Cubicle’ is not only the company motto, it is the success factor to the Wildly Different approach – they help to empower individuals to become more strategic, creative and effective.

Imagine the excitement of the teams when they discover the iPad will be the tool they use to skillfully navigate challenges and adventures over several hours. After a brief hands-on tutorial, teams learn how the custom iPad Hunt app works and then they are provided a special password to start. From there, teams are off and running! Clues may be customized to incorporate interesting facts and sights in the event area, which may be a theme park, outdoor shopping center, business center, community park or resort area. The iPad Hunt is a new level of performance technology allowing it to be customized and played in many varied locations. To add a personalized touch, the company logo may be displayed on multiple screens for maximum visibility, plus putting the company into the action, throughout the hunt.

Based in Orlando, Florida, and with over twenty years of experience in the corporate team building business, Wildly Different has enjoyed the privilege of working with companies both large and small, and from a wide range of industries. The Wildly Different team consists of seasoned professionals with expertise in Leisure Services, Recreation and Marketing, and trained as activity directors, meeting planners, event marketers and fundraising event directors.

iharmonix Q-i-Sound

Panorama City, Calif. (PRWEB) May 08, 2012

Mobile technology visionary, Qmadix, proudly reveals iharmonix Q-i-sound, Tempered Tech-Armor, and Boostpac Eclipse at CTIA Wireless 2012. These innovative accessory solutions are focused on enhancing the mobile user experience. CTIA attendees will get full experience at 11 AM (CDT) at CTIA Wireless.

In January, 2012, the iharmonix Q-i-Sound prototype first came on the scene at the world-renowned CES convention in Las Vegas. These compact Bluetooth speakers sent ripples through the tech world with its revolutionary easily-portable-meets-high-performance functionality. It is the first portable sound system of its kind that is designed to pair wirelessly with any mobile Bluetooth Smartphone and tablet.

“Until now, there hasn’t been anything that could deliver high performance true stereo sound separation via Bluetooth without being plugged into a power source. The iharmonix Q-i-sound by Qmadix is designed to give our customers a portable home-quality sound experience anywhere.” – David Khalepari, CEO, Qmadix.

Tempered Tech-Armor Glass Screen Protector utilizes an innovative tempered triplex technology, which prevents the iPhone glass from shattering or scratching when dropped. The tempered glass is .03mm thick, but has strength greater than 9 times the breaking threshold of conventional glass. With propriety surface coating, the screen is resistant to fingerprints and smudges. Quality testing confirms the Tech-Armor tempered glass maintains the same touch sensitivity as designed by factory iPhone settings.

“Buying an iPhone or any smartphone isn’t just making a purchase – it’s making an investment. Our Tempered Tech-Armor Glass Screen Proctor is designed to ensure maximum screen protection. Once applied, it’s nearly undetectable and shatterproof.” – said Khalepari.

The boostpac eclipse is a compact universal rechargeable auxiliary battery pack fitted with Smart Technology to properly charge iPhone, iPod, Samsung, HTC, Motorola, Blackberry and most devices with Micro USB ports. Smart Technology ensures that both Apple and Android devices are charged at the proper amperage. It also automatically shuts off when the phone is done charging. This maintains the integrity of the factory charging specifications and battery levels. The LED battery indicator makes it easy for consumers to see how much battery is available.

“Our boostpac eclipse is elegantly tailored for our customers to enjoy their mobile devices the way wireless devices are intended to be used. Ultimately, we are making being tethered to a wall-plug a thing of the past because it gives customers freedom to charge anywhere. The boostpac eclipse is perfect for business professionals, travelers, sharing with friends and anyone who doesn’t always have time to wait for their phones to charge in the wall.” –Khalepari.

La Playa Carmel

Carmel-by-the-Sea, CA (PRWEB) May 09, 2012

La Playa Carmel, Carmel-by-the-Sea’s newest luxury boutique hotel is also one of its oldest, most cherished landmarks, harkening back to the hamlet’s heritage as an affluent artists community. Originally built in 1905 by California landscape artist Christian Jorgenson as a gift for his wife, La Playa has enjoyed a long and beloved history as the Grand Dame of the scenic seaside community, ensconced in a celebrated residential neighborhood, just two charming blocks from the center of town and the beach, and close to several desirable Carmel, CA restaurants. The mansion was converted into a hotel in 1916 and has remained a Monterey romantic getaway for the past century. Now, under the careful stewardship of Grossman Company Properties and Classic Hotels & Resorts, La Playa has been thoughtfully renovated and modernized, with no detail overlooked, positioning the hotel for success for the next 100 years.

When La Playa Carmel opens its doors in August 2012 after a multi-million dollar renovation, loyal guests will find all of the original old-California charm intact, but will instantly notice many upgrades. The Lobby, Library, Bar and Lounge and each of the 75 guest rooms have been transformed with new contemporary coastal style. In addition to the chic guestroom décor with crisp white paint, plantation shutters, pillow-top mattresses and a fresh citrus color palette, guests will also enjoy completely renovated bathrooms. Some of the best upgrades are the ones you only notice if they are missing, such as new plumbing, electrical and state-of-the-art soundproofing, fast-forwarding the Grand Dame 100 years.

“It has been our privilege and passion to transform La Playa Carmel and restore a century of Carmel tradition,” said Matt Crow, CEO of Classic Hotels & Resorts. “When you are working with a storied property, one that means so much to the legacy guests and the community of Carmel, you have to exceed all expectations and most importantly, retain the soul of the place. Classic Hotels & Resorts has a strong record of restoring properties to their previous grandeur, most notably with the restoration of the Arizona Biltmore, and we look forward to building on this legacy with La Playa Carmel”

Well known for it’s beautiful ocean, estate and garden views, La Playa Carmel has been a central player in the story of Carmel. Generations have celebrated weddings and special events on the stunning grounds. Couples have honeymooned and gotten away from it all. Companies have held retreats and meetings, inspired by the creative legacy and natural beauty of the surroundings. Steve Jobs even held some of Apple’s early retreats at La Playa Carmel as they were developing the first Macintosh. All of these traditions will continue in the new life of La Playa Carmel.

The Central Coast-area surrounding Carmel is known worldwide for its beautiful, rugged coastline dotted with cypress and pine, internationally-renowned golf courses, quality art galleries and boutiques, beaches, fine restaurants and famed wineries. La Playa Carmel is an ideal home base from which to explore the region. For local jaunts, the hotel will have bicycles available for hotel guests to explore the enchanting surrounding neighborhood. After a short drive, guests can find themselves on the links at Pebble Beach, at the Heller Estate Winery in Carmel Valley, at the Monterey Bay Aquarium or at a breathtaking viewpoint on Big Sur’s dramatic coastline. Many guests enjoy ending a day of leisure, celebrations or meetings at La Playa’s cozy Bar and Lounge, where classic drinks and a menu of light fare are served throughout the day and evening.

Mary Crowe has been tapped as La Playa Carmel’s general manager and will lead the staff with warm, professional service and thoughtful attention to all travelers. In her previous position as general manager of Villagio Inn & Spa in Napa Valley, Crowe worked with a similar clientele traveling to California’s best locations to savor the good life of art, fine wine and food and the region’s natural beauty.

One of the new additions to enhance the La Playa Carmel experience will be a Signature Champagne Breakfast Buffett served overlooking tranquil garden and ocean views to all guests, included with their room rate. This will provide an ideal gathering spot for guests as they plan out their day of activities enjoying the sights of Carmel and the surrounding area.

La Playa Carmel is accepting reservations for weddings, meetings and leisure guests for stays beginning August 1, 2012. Rates begin at $ 249 per night, including full Champagne Breakfast Buffet. To make reservations, please call 800-582-8900 or visit http://www.laplayahotel.com.

(PRWEB) April 28, 2012

The annual Denver Green Expo, scheduled for May 19 at the National Western Complex in Denver, is expected to attract thousands looking for the latest trends in sustainable living, recycling, community farming, organic foods, green building and remodeling, alternative transportation resources and green car options, and much more. Both attendees and exhibitors heading to the Green Expo are booking their Denver accommodations through Colorado Vacation Rentals.

Conservation-minded attendees are interested in alternatives to hotels when they head to Denver for the Expo, according to John Romano of Colorado Vacation Rentals. Whether they’re staying one night or for a long getaway weekend, more and more people are choosing to book a Denver vacation rental apartment or condo and bypass the expense and inconvenience of a hotel stay altogether.

Travelers staying in a Denver vacation house or condo have all the comforts of home, including a kitchen, laundry room, and other amenities, and far more privacy than they’d get in a hotel or bed and breakfast, and at a fraction of the price.

“Denver has so much to offer, and many people coming for the Green Expo will choose to stay an extra night or two to enjoy all the city has to offer,” Romano says. “Whether you’re heading here for the Green Fest, or to enjoy some world class outdoor recreation, shopping, and nightlife, you can find a great deal on a Denver area vacation condo or bungalow any time of year.”

Savvy travelers have been staying in vacation rental homes in the Denver area and all across Colorado for years in order to save money on the cost of a hotel, while enjoying all the comforts of home in Denver’s most cosmopolitan communities. For more information, visit ColoradoVacationRentals.com.

For families traveling with children, Romano says it makes sense to book a Rocky Mountain area vacation rental property instead of a hotel room, for a much more comfortable stay at a fraction of the price of a hotel room.

About Colorado Vacation Rentals:

This collaborative site matches property owners with vacationers looking for the perfect rental property.

Forman’s Fish Island Riviera: complete with yachts, hospitality and beach club

Brighton, UK (PRWEB UK) 25 April 2012

London will be hot this summer – in the style stakes at least: Forman’s are bringing the glamour of the Riviera to the capital. The 107-year-old family firm, which boasts a fine dining restaurant as well as quality British food and hamper baskets via http://www.formanandfield.com, is offering exclusive hospitality and experiential suites at the closest venue to the London 2012 Stadium.

Forman’s ‘Fish Island Riviera’ will see a 1.5-acre patch of East London rivalling the glitz of Cannes during this summer’s Olympic Games, complete with Sunseeker yachts, top notch catering from royal warranted event organisers The Admirable Crichton and a beach club operating day and night. Next door to Forman’s world famous salmon smokery, art-gallery and event venue, the 30 bespoke suites are only 100 metres from the Olympic stadium, with access less than a five minute walk.

Lance Forman, MD of Forman’s Fish Island, commented, “Fish Island will be the VIP side of the Games this summer. We expect athletes to come here to celebrate their medal wins. Guests can arrive in style by boat and enjoy the atmosphere surrounded by palm trees and yachts. Even at this stage, months before the Games commence, most companies have not worked out how they will be entertaining their clients and staff, many of whom will be flying in to London from all over the world. Now they have the ultimate solution, but they need to be quick as there are only 30 suites available.”

Johnny Roxburgh, co-founder of The Admirable Crichton, said, “Iconic events need spectacular lunches and dinners to mark them. For the London Olympics our super-talented chefs and menu designers have created THE most delicious menus. British influenced but prepared with an international and contemporary flair, they are the perfect way to ensure that even the most sophisticated guests will leave impressed that the standard of entertaining matches the world class Olympics that they have just enjoyed.”

Hospitality

Each suite is a fully serviced space measuring 20m x 5m, including a balcony facing the Olympic stadium. Built by world-leading providers of temporary event structures and managed onsite by the global brand activation company Pico, the suites can be branded and fitted out according to clients’ exact specifications, thereby bringing their corporate HQ, showroom or lounge to the Games. Forman’s Smokehouse Gallery will forge links between clients and local artists, generating new commissions to decorate the suites.

Riviera Life

The beach club at Forman’s Fish Island Riviera will be straight out of the Cote D’Azur – London has never seen anything like it! Day and night, Forman’s bar team will be serving fabulous cocktails among the palm trees as guests enjoy a prime spot from which to watch the fireworks and soak up the atmosphere from the crowds in the stadium next door. With 150m of riverside, Sunseeker will be mooring a fleet of fabulous yachts for the duration of the Games that will be available for hire by the day. On the beach volleyball court a handpicked team will perform display matches throughout the day. Patrons can also watch Olympic athletes play, if they wish, when they have completed their own competitions!
