70’s throwback festive season hits Amilla Maldives

Published

on

Amilla Maldives kicked off its festive season on December 20th, and let’s just say it was far out! With the 70’s-inspired theme, the island transformed into a dazzling, groovy paradise.

The festivities continue with the much-anticipated tree lighting ceremony. The evening began with a cocktail reception then as the countdown began, the children eagerly assisting, with a burst of light, the grand 30-ft Christmas tree came to life, casting shimmering colours of a paisley print reminiscent of the 70’s theme. The crowd cheered as the carolers invited everyone to sing, dance, and revel in the festive magic that filled the air.

On 24th December guests were treated to a mouth-watering spread of festive flavours while being entertained by local band “Voodoo”.

25th December brought the grooviest parade of all with the arrival of Santa Claus. First life-size gingerbread characters made their entrance, leading the kids on a search for Santa. And just when the excitement couldn’t get any higher, Santa made his entrance from the second floor of the Sunset Bar, giving the kids a chance to catch a glimpse of him from above before he made his way down to greet them. Santa rode off on his disco ball decked buggy, creating the most fabulous parade. Of course, Santa made sure every child received their very own gift, spreading the holiday cheer.

The day was packed with entertainment, including poolside mermaids, a mouth-watering Christmas brunch, and a lively football match between staff and guests.

The celebrations continue with the show-stopping Abba-solutely fabulous Björn Again on December 31st, as we welcome 2025.
