Welcome the New Year in style at Beach House Iruveli

Published

on

Maldives Promotion House – Forget scrabbling around this New Year’s Eve for party invites, fancy dress and late night taxis.  Instead, enjoy a more decadent and relaxed affair at Beach House Iruveli where there’s a Champagne buffet for everyone, the dress code is decidedly beach party and a moonlit stroll around the island after the celebrations have ended will ensure guests reach their beach villa or over-water suite within minutes.

What’s more, there’s an extra festive treat in store with seven nights’ accommodation for the price of five for stays between 26 December and 10 January.  This special offer is available on all villa and suite accommodation and comes with complimentary daily buffet breakfast. In addition, guests will be offered a host of luxuries which include:

  • A jetlag massage at the De’ Spa
  • Complimentary non-motorised watersports and snorkelling equipment
  • An introductory trial of scuba diving equipment
  • Non-alcoholic mini bar beverages and two bottles of water per villa per day
  • Tea & Nespresso facilities in the villa, plus free wi-fi access
  • Access to the kids’ club (some activities may be chargeable) and PLAY, the recreation and fitness centre
  • A romantic in-room turn down service with a champagne and chocolates for those staying on New Year’s Eve

On New Year’s Eve, the party starts with cocktails and canapés with the management team in Salt Water, the hub of the island and also a stunning place to watch the sunset.  Then it’s across the island to Medium Rare with its beachside setting for a luxury Champagne buffet, live entertainment and a lantern ceremony.  Back at Salt Water, the fun and festivities will run into the early hours of 2013.  And there’s even golf buggies available for those preferring not to walk back to their villa!

Beach House Iruveli is an idyllic private island retreat fringed by powder white beaches, coral reef lagoons and a jungle-filled interior. Promising discreet luxury, style and world-class service, each of the 83 beautifully designed thatched villas, suites and pavilions comes with a private pool and a villa host who can attend to every need.  Three fine dining restaurants boast a gastronomic experience rich in culinary diversity and include a unique underground wine cellar, housing one of the most extensive collections of fine vintages in the Indian Ocean. The resort is also proud to support a coral regeneration programme with a resident marine biologist.
