Timeshare Mauritius: Events

There are plenty of reasons for timeshare owners to make their way over to Mauritius, especially now that efforts are being made to bring more events to the island.

According to Adam Hanmer, sales and marketing manager for UK & Ireland at the Mauritius Tourism Promotion Authority (MTPA), work is being done to bring some sports events to the destination.

He pointed to one event that is already held on the island, the Festival International Kreol, which is particularly popular and will be taking place between November 28th and December 6th.

This year's festival will see singers, dancers and musicians come together, while speakers of the Creole family will appear.

Prime minister of Mauritius Dr Navin Ramgoolam and Xavier Luc Duval, vice-prime minister and minister of tourism, leisure and external communications, traditionally inaugurate the event.

Over in the Naiade resorts there are a number of sporting events ready to go, including a triathlon, Mr Hanmer said.

Around 107,000 Brits make their way over to Mauritius every year, making it an especially important market.
