The Festivities Begin

The festivities kicked off on 22nd December with the Christmas tree lighting ceremony, setting a joyful tone for what was to come. Guests gathered, and as the lights flickered on, it was like the island itself was glowing with holiday cheer. What really made this moment special were the trees themselves, two stunning, eco-friendly creations. One stood at 15 feet tall, made entirely from coconut leaf stalks, and the other, a 14-foot tree crafted from dry coconuts. These trees weren’t just beautiful; they also showed the resort’s commitment to sustainability, proving that creativity and care for the environment could go hand in hand.

Santa’s Grand Entrance

As Christmas Eve approached, excitement filled the air. The evening kicked off with a festive cocktail sundowner at the Splash Bar beach, where guests relaxed with drinks while the ocean glistened under the fading sun. Laughter and chatter flowed easily, with everyone buzzing in anticipation of Santa’s grand entrance.

And when he arrived, it was nothing short of spectacular. Santa didn’t just walk in, he rolled in, arriving at the beach in a limousine-style buggy, escorted by a team of female bodyguards. It wasn’t just Santa who felt like royalty. Guests were treated to a VIP experience with heightened security and even a body scanner at the entrance. Everything about the night felt exclusive and exciting.

Once Santa reached the beach, he made his way to a grand chair, right at the center of the celebration. As he sat, a talented group of carolers filled the air with joyful melodies. The golden glow of the sunset only added to the festive magic, creating a picture-perfect moment. Santa spent time chatting with guests, handing out gifts, and spreading the holiday spirit. Meanwhile, the bar kept the energy flowing, offering delicious cocktails and mocktails that kept everyone in a cheerful mood.

After Santa’s grand entrance, the evening continued with the Christmas Eve Gala Dinner at Bluefin. The feast was incredible; seafood, premium meats, and gourmet dishes filled the tables, all prepared by the resort’s skilled chefs. A live saxophonist played soft, soulful tunes, creating the perfect atmosphere for a festive and intimate evening. After dinner, guests made their way to the bar, where a DJ kept the mood lively, spinning upbeat tunes that had everyone dancing and enjoying the night. It was a Christmas celebration unlike any other, full of joy and laughter.
