51 Feb21210 Steeped in history, culture and culinary delights, Spain is a gem in Europe’s crown. We speak to founder of Preiper Luxe, Rafael Perez Navazo, as the firm is awarded Luxury Representation Company of the Year – Spain. Spain At Its Finest Preiper Luxe – Authentic Heritage was founded in 2013 by passionate Spanish native, Rafael Pérez Navazo, as an event consultancy firm specialising in the uniqueness of the country of Spain. It was following his graduation from International Tourism Studies, plus a Post Graduate Diploma in Hotel Management, that Rafael started work in sales for an internationally renowned company promoting luxury hotels worldwide. It was here he gained his initial experience in the travel industry, going on to launch new brands in China, before becoming Head of Sales & Marketing for one of the most well-reputed five-star hotels in Madrid. Today, Preiper Luxe Consultancy Services has an international background drawing on its founder’s stellar experience in promoting luxury properties. The firm is very much reflective of Rafael’s dedication and passion for Sales & Marketing and Public Relations, as well as his commitment to promoting and communicating the right message to travellers – that Spain is a luxury destination rich in history, culture and culinary pleasures. “We work with and for the best,” explains Rafael. “Our small size allows us to deliver personal attention at a senior-level to all the properties we work for and its teams. Our management team is involved in every new project, from plan to development. “We offer a winning combination of knowledge, experience, flexibility, and an unmatched network to get our clients the answers and solutions they need.” With a collection of 14 boutique properties in its portfolio, Preiper Luxe represents the top tier of independent hotel establishments in Spain, offering opulence and culture. It is safe to say that Rafael and his team are eagerly awaiting the return of guests to the hotels, and have taken all the necessary precautions needed and updated protocols in line with current regulations in order to welcome residents once again soon. “We are positive, proactive and passionate about our work, and thrive on the fast pace of building our clients’ brands in the exciting, yet challenging, current global market.” Amongst its signature assembly of premium hotels is the Casa Palacio Maria Luisa, Jerez’s only five-star grand luxury hotel. In a region famous for its wines, horses and flamenco, Jerez de la Frontera is a well- renowned historic-artistic location. With all the magnificence and authenticity of a genuine Majorcan villa is Gran Hotel Son Net. Situated on a 17th century estate at the foot of the Tramuntana Mountains, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, the 31 elegant rooms enjoy views over the half-hectare of surrounding Malvasia vineyards. La Casa del Presidente is an upscale hotel in the former palace of politician and Spain’s first-time Prime Minister Adolfo Suarez; and in the heart of the old town of Caceres, sommelier Jose Polo and chef Toño Perez provide a culinary experience at the two-star Michelin restaurant, offering dishes which showcase authentic flavours in a contemporary setting. With another ten stunning properties, Preiper Luxe harbours the most exclusive collection of luxury hotels in Spain and is undoubtedly a premier choice for travellers as they make plans for future adventures once the world reopens once again.
