Festive performances set against a stunning backdrop of the Indian Ocean await guests of Banyan Tree Vabbinfaru and Angsana Ihuru.

Underwater adventures, a beach fashion show, and festive performances set against a stunning backdrop of the Indian Ocean await guests of Banyan Tree Vabbinfaru and Angsana Ihuru this year.

The Festive Celebration will begin with the decorating and lighting of the Christmas trees on both islands. Christmas Eve will be traditional with a slight twist as Santa will arrive by ‘dhoni’ instead of the sleigh on the 24th. Santa’s arrival will be followed by lively Christmas carols while guests enjoy cocktails and canapés.

On the morning of the 25th, Santa and his divers will visit the Rannamaari Wreck to check out the resident guitarfish, jacks and batfish. The evening will be filled with magic and wonders. Activities such as Toddy Sunset Ritual and Local Market Experience will showcase local culture and tradition. In addition, the Moodhu Collection Fashion Show at Banyan Tree Beach will feature a selection of Banyan Tree Gallery items. It will also showcase hand-painted t-shirts designed by Abdulla Shakeeb, the talented in-house artist and Executive Housekeeper of Angsana Ihuru.

Guests are encouraged to glam up with white and gold for New Year’s Eve, or they can come as they are; even barefoot if they prefer.

The much-anticipated activity ‘Swim Across the Channel’, an 890-meter swim between the two islands, will also take place on the first of January to start the year with a fun-filled and healthy activity.

A series of fun activities await for the kids at Angsana Ihuru’s newly opened Kids Club. There is something for the little ones every day, plus an exciting Kiddies Magic Workshop that will leave them in awe. For something a little more festive, kids can decorate their own gingerbread man, create Christmas cards, or go Treasure Hunting.

Banyan Tree Vabbinfaru and Angsana Ihuru are located in North Male’ Atoll, just 25 minutes away from the airport by speedboat. The two resorts are about 890 meters apart, less than five minutes by boat. Each island has its unique charm, and guests staying in either resort can enjoy the best of both worlds. Banyan Tree Vabbinfaru, a spa-centric all-pool villa resort, is a haven for those who seek a relaxing retreat. Angsana Ihuru is the perfect spot for the active. It is a dive-centric resort, home to the legendary Rannamaari Wreck.
