Creative debuts Maldives program
By admin


Creative Holidays has added the Maldives to its portfolio for 2013, with the firm reporting strong demand for the destination.

The inaugural range features 14 properties across a variety of styles, budgets with a range of transfer options.

Managing director Paul McGrath said the move came on the back of a high volume of enquiries regarding the destination over the last 12 months.

"We expect the Maldives to be a big hit with Australian travellers, particularly with West Australia's huge fly-in fly-out market," he said. "It provides a unique and easily accessible alternative to perennially popular destinations such as Bali and Thailand."

McGrath anticipated the product range would be a particularly good fit with the honeymoon market.
