What our customers say
I became acquainted with Jean Pierre many years ago when he represented a small group of select, privately owned 5* boutique hotels in southern France. I was immediately impressed with his enthusiasm and intimate knowledge of each hotel. Over the years he, along with his son Sebastian, have built Creative Destinations into a magnificent collection of luxury boutique hotels throughout France and into Italy, Spain and Portugal. Although the collection has grown, the enthusiasm and in-depth knowledge of each hotel has remained. Creative Destinations has always been willing to go above and beyond to be sure each guest has an amazing experience.
I have worked with Jean Pierre and Sebastien for over three decades and have loved selling all their hand picked properties. Each gem in their portfolio is known intimately and they are generous in sharing their knowledge of both the properties and the destinations in which they are located. Their list of hotels is a definite”go to” whenever a client says we need something small and special.
I have been working with the team at Creative Destinations for several years. I have been lucky enough to travel on three of their FAM trips, giving me the opportunity to see a large portion of their hotel collection. After experiencing so many of their properties, I know that there is a strong tie between the properties - linking together locally owned, boutique hotels with a strong culinary focus. I now book all of their properties, even those that I have not seen, without hesitation - knowing the high standard to which they hold the hotels in their collection. The team at Creative Destinations is also always available to assist should I need help with a specific booking - like VIPing a client, or choosing the best hotel option in the region for a particular trip. I do not hesitate to recommend their collection to industry friends and colleagues!
Poe Travel has been so fortunate for over 15 years of working with Jean Pierre Jonqua and now Sebastien of Creative Destinations. I’ll never forget the first time he came to our office with the GM of Cap Estel …the magic began that very moment. Jean Pierre’s stories of Chateau Eza in the olden days painted such a rich and colorful picture of travel….What he emoted to my team was such a rich sense of place which is reflected in the Creative Destinations hotel portfolio. Each property is hand picked for a reason and there is a true working relationship between Creative Destinations and each and every property…feels like you’re working with a family which is what our clients so enjoy.
Poe Travel is a very proud and loyal devotee of Creative Destinations and look forward to seeing the company continue to grow and prosper.

An indispensable part of my job.
Never have I been so impressed working with an European Hotel Representation company as I have been with Creative Destination and in particular, personally with Jean-Pierre and Sebastien Jonqua. You receive immediate responses with action taken and most importantly, immediate results for you and your clients. They know the properties inside and out and the contacts at each property personally. You’d be foolish not to work with them and have them as your local advocate. Creative Destinations not only represents some of the finest boutique hotel gems in France, Italy, and Spain, but they provide exceptional support to travel advisors.
I love Creative Destinations because they represent what I consider the Tiny Jewel Boxes in their destinations. They are so authentic and distinctive and highlight the best of accommodations, divine food and experiences. I still remember my first 3 star Michelin dining experience at Bernard Loiseau in France. A memory that lasts a lifetime! We have so many clients that are working their way through the hotels of Creative Destinations. We design itineraries based solely on their fine hotels for the ultimate vacation isn’t it time to introduce your clients to this amazing collection.
I have had the profound pleasure of working with Creative Destinations and experiencing some of the exquisite properties they represent. Every hotel in their collection is full of charm, luxury, and uniqueness. Each visit can easily be categorized as “unparalleled” and “unforgettable.”
Creative Destinations not only represents some of the finest boutique hotel gems in France, Italy, and Spain, but they provide exceptional support to travel advisors. Because they are deeply devoted, their team never fails to respond with the utmost professionalism in a timely manner. They have been instrumental in helping me meet the needs of my clients. Their expertise and enthusiasm is greatly admired, and I wholeheartedly appreciate the education and experience their collection has to offer.
I have known and been a fan of Creative Destinations for twenty years. They provide a great deal of insight and access which is very much appreciated by both the travel advisor and the traveler. Their relationships with the Properties is not only personal but provides an exceptional introduction for all the guests.
Working with Creative Destinations and Sebastian offers us insider access which opens doors with both the hotels and local services.
I have worked with Creative Destinations for over 20 years, turning to them for advice and expertise on itineraries and hotel specifics in the areas they cover.
I’ve had the good fortune to travel with them twice, experiencing amazing hotels and learning new destinations.
Jean-Pierre and his team have first hand knowledge and fabulous connections with some of the best hotels in France, Italy and Spain.
