As a special incentive
I would not try to preserve the idiom in the translation but rather render the meaning, and I believe "incentive" is close. Of course, having a larger context might be helpful.

In particular
I think the complete sentence should be something like 'in particular, it is recommended to pay special atention to attracting...', etc.
As a matter of fact, 'изюминка' is something special and atractive, some unusual feature, which makes difference, but I cannot really see this term used in the sentence provided.

Alexander Demyanov
: You are right. "Изюминка" seems way out of place here, and it's very likely that the author meant just "particularly/especially interesting is..."

(here) as a special feature
I would go more neutral here, and it IS a 'special feature'.
