From October 31 to November 1, 2024 in Maldives, the heart-shaped island of The Westin Miriandhoo Resort is set to illuminate this year’s Diwali festivities with a dazzling celebration of colors, flavors, and traditions. Couples and families are invited to bask in the magic of the Festival of Lights on October 31, 2024, amid the resort’s stunning natural beauty, and look forward to the much-anticipated year-end celebration from December 20, 2024 to January 6, 2025

During Diwali, the Island Kitchen restaurant will offer a special buffet dinner featuring a delicious spread of Indian cuisine. Guests can savour favourites like aromatic Biryani, Butter Chicken, Paneer Tikka, and a variety of traditional Indian sweets such as Gulab Jamun and Jalebi. The resort will be adorned with vibrant Rangoli designs, and the lively rhythms of Maldivian Boduberu drummers will blend the spirit of the Maldives with the joy of Diwali.

As for wellness experience, guests can visit the Heavenly Spa by Westin™, where a wellness workshop will allow them to create natural scrubs and face masks using traditional Indian herbs like turmeric and coriander. This tranquil overwater spa provides the perfect setting for relaxation and renewal, offering signature treatments that help guests feel their best.

After Diwali, The Westin Maldives Miriandhoo Resort will continue the festive spirit with ‘Rhythms by the Sea: A Carnival of Festivities,’ a dazzling year-end celebration from December 20, 2024, to January 6, 2025. This event brings a lively fusion of Brazilian carnival energy to the Maldives, featuring parades, dazzling performances, and unique dining experiences. The celebration will culminate with a spectacular New Year’s Eve Gala Dinner, where international DJ Luca Schreiner will keep the energy high with electrifying music, followed by a breathtaking fireworks display over the Maldivian sky.

Guests looking to enhance their stay can take advantage of the ‘Festive Bliss’ early bird package, which offers a 10% discount on room rates, 20% savings on spa treatments, and USD 100 in food and beverage credits per stay. Alternatively, the ‘Full Board’ package includes daily breakfast, lunch, and dinner, along with complimentary access to workout sessions at the 24/7 WestinWORKOUT® Fitness Studios, snorkelling gear, and ocean kayaks for an active, adventure-filled holiday.

Located near the famous Hanifaru Bay in the UNESCO Biosphere Reserve of Baa Atoll, the resort provides guests with the chance to witness majestic manta rays and whale sharks. They can also explore an underwater world filled with rare pink hydrozoan corals that flourish in these pristine waters. With 69 beautifully designed overwater and beach villas, the resort offers luxurious accommodations for every guest. Easily accessible via a scenic 30-minute seaplane ride from Malé or a 20-minute domestic flight followed by a short speedboat transfer, The Westin Maldives Miriandhoo Resort promises a holiday season full of Diwali warmth and unforgettable year-end festivities.
