"Thank you" from our #VIPIbiza Winner
Friday, October 13, 2017
In July, we ran our biggest ever competition - #VIPIbiza! Up for grabs was the holiday of a lifetime and the chance to experience Ibiza like a true VIP.
As well as a luxury 3-night round-trip and a boutique hotel stay in the party capital of the world, the prize also included:
- a chauffeur to the airport
- overnight stay in our penthouse Runway Suite
- unlimited 12-month airport lounge passes
- designer sunglasses
- luxury lunch and dinner for two
- VIP closing party tickets
- 12-month gym passes each
- €500 spending money, plus much more...
With over 17,000 entries, there could be only one winner. Brandon Egley from Sheffield was our grand prize winner and he took his partner Charlotte along with him for the adventure.
Here's what he had to say about the experience...
"I've just about recovered from the weekend." said Brandon. "From arrival in London to Gatwick, to all the bits of the prize in Ibiza, everything went really smoothly.
"The runway suite was gorgeous, and we wish we'd had more time in it to take it all in. From arrival at Gatwick to getting the plane, we only felt like we were in an airport for about 10 minutes of it walking to the gate.
"Es Vive offered fantastic service and couldn't have been more accommodating, once again it was a stunning place to stay and they made sure we had VIP guest list to the club night we'd asked for.
"STK was an experience far beyond our pay grade, and we genuinely felt like VIPs with how they looked after us, we were there for hours enjoying amazing food and the entertainment that came with it.
"All in all, things went so smoothly, that it was a relaxing and yet whirlwind weekend in what has always been our favourite place, there were some great experiences included and yet enough time for us to get out and do our own thing as well.
On behalf of me and Charlotte just wanted to say a massive thank you to you and everybody else who helped put together which was an absolutely amazing prize."
