inVOYAGE Mykonos: A Behind The Scenes Tour with Maria Papadakis, Event Makers DMC

Find out what’s waiting for you at inVOYAGE Mykonos as we catch up behind scenes with Maria Papadakis, Managing Director of Event Makers for an exclusive look at our Mykonos programme. From the newest venues to the most exclusive beach resorts, get ready to experience the very best Mykonos has to offer … 


inVOYAGE: Maria, it’s lovely to have you with us today and we’re delighted to be working with Event Makers for our upcoming event in Mykonos. Now before we touch on our programme for inVOYAGE Mykonos could you tell us, what does it mean to be our DMC partner and such an integral part of inVOYAGE Mykonos?



Maria, Event Makers DMC: We began operating high-end trips to Mykonos from around 2010 and since then Mykonos, has become by far the most popular and favoured destination for my team and for our clients. Together with dedicated customers we have managed to be a main key player in Mykonos with strong influence and power at the jet-setters Greek island! It’s a great honour for us to host inVOYAGE in Mykonos and having selected the best options, I am sure that everyone will have a lifetime experience!  

 

inVOYAGE: What do you believe sets Mykonos apart as an incentive destination, and how is this showcased in the overall programme?



Maria, Event Makers DMC: Mykonos is Greece's most famous Cosmopolitan Island, a whitewashed paradise in the heart of the Cyclades, the island of the winds, with crystal clear blue seas, white-washed landscape, amazing parties, top class hotels, breathtaking sunsets and many more. 

As I keep saying to my clients Mykonos is a destination for well-travelled and spoiled visitors! We hope that our inVOYAGERS will enjoy all of the above as we get ready to showcase Mykonos through inVOYAGE’s spectacular programme.

  

inVOYAGE: Being the local experts, what unique insights or local touches have you incorporated into the event that attendees might not experience elsewhere? How do you see these elements reflecting the spirit of Mykonos and inVOYAGE?

 

Maria, Event Makers DMC:

Without spoiling the surprise too much, I can guarantee that our delegates will enjoy a lot of fun, luxury, exclusivity, amazing food and drinks and a friendly team to make them feel at home! 

 

inVOYAGE: Now, we’re incredibly excited to be opening our inVOYAGE Mykonos event at the stunning Myconian Avaton Hotel. In your opinion what elements of the hotel make it an ideal choice for our opening night?

 

Maria, Event Makers DMC: The Myconian Avaton is our best-selling option in Mykonos for buy outs with 150 rooms and suites all with an astonishing sea view.  We couldn’t have chosen a better venue for the welcome party – from its trendy luxury, infinity pool to its state-of-the-art DJ music and the most experienced cocktail bartenders on the island.

inVOYAGE: Very exciting! And for our second evening we’re heading to the newly opened Myconian DEOS Hotel! Without giving too much away what exciting touches can our inVOYAGERS look forward to on day 2 of inVOYAGE Mykonos and what does the venue offer in terms of incentives and luxury events?

 

Maria, Event Makers DMC:DEOS is the new gem of the island and we certainly couldn’t miss that off the programme. It’s a small boutique exclusive hotel in walking distance from “Chora”, downtown Mykonos. It opened at the beginning of this year and carries all the luxury amenities you’d expect from the Myconian family’s 30 years of experience. DEOS “landed” in Mykonos complete with 65 Rooms (all featuring pools or jacuzzi) and has quickly filled the gap that was missing from Mykonos downtown!

 

inVOYAGE: And lastly – we have our final night venue which we’re excited to announce will be taking place at the iconic venue Nammos! What made Nammos the perfect choice for the final evening of inVOYAGE Mykonos and how do you envision this venue creating a memorable finale for our attendees?

 

Maria, Event Makers DMC:Nammos is a trademark of Mykonos!  Sometimes I wonder if Mykonos established the Nammos brand or if Nammos established the brand of Mykonos! Since 1972 Nammos has hosted the most luxurious, prestigious and notable parties in Europe. Mykonos generally is well known for its parties, but we all know that everything started from Nammos. Today Nammos’ beach club restaurants feature in Cane, Dubai and Limassol but nothing is more authentic than the original Nammos Mykonos! Get ready for a truly incredible finale night! We’ll be bringing out all the stops this time.

 

inVOYAGE: So, for any of the attendees who may not have visited Mykonos before, what should they be most excited about in terms of the locations and activities we’ve got planned?

 

Maria, Event Makers DMC: It’s impossible to pick just one! But throughout the event, we’ll be showcasing the best luxuries of the island – its high-end service, the great food and the unique Greek warm hospitality. We will have quality time that combines business and pleasure, the same way we do with our incentive groups and corporate clients. It’s going to be an incredible 3 days and we can’t wait to welcome you all.

 

inVOYAGE: And are there any specific highlights or moments you’re eagerly anticipating?

  

Maria, Event Makers DMC: Our beach activity on Sunday afternoon… but that’s all I can say for now! 

 

inVOYAGE: Well, it’s not long to go now! Thanks so much for taking the time to speak with us today and we can’t wait to see you all there!
