J.MAK Hospitality has announced the addition of Joao Donadel to its sales team, to enhance its reach to travel advisors across North America, particularly on the West Coast of the U.S., and to support its global portfolio of partners.
The company represents global luxury boutique hotels, villa collections, destination management companies, tour operators and private aviation companies, supporting them through sales, marketing and public relations services.
Donadel, who will be known as “J.WOW,” joins J.MAK with a passion for luxury travel, and experience gained traveling to 52 countries and speaking five languages. In 2020, Donadel moved to L.A. from his native Brazil to become a pilot and attend pilot training but soon after he discovered a calling for luxury travel. He is an affiliate and ambassador at Embark Beyond and has expanded his influence and dedication as a hospitality personality with J.MAK Hospitality.
J.MAK HOSPITALITY connects with travel advisors through innovative ways. In 2020, Jon “J.MAK” Makhmaltchi, founder of J.MAK Hospitality, made house calls in his "MAK.MOBILE" winnebago to advisors who suddenly found themselves working remotely. In 2022, when Makhmaltchi was unable to travel to a trade show he sent the “J.MAK.1000,” a robot that enabled him to “talk” to attendees via the screen which served as the robot’s face. In that same year, J.MAK Hospitality added public relations to its offerings for partners, reaching a new demographic of influencer in support of their businesses. In 2023, J.MAK celebrated its 10th anniversary by recognizing its “J.10” partners who helped the company reach that milestone.
J.MAK now expands to the West Coast with Donadel, who will be based in Los Angeles, CA.
