Christmas Tree Lighting Ceremony
It’s time to switch on the festive mood.
Join us for an easy-going evening as the Christmas tree comes to life in a burst of lights, music and holiday cheer. Sip on welcome drinks, snack on festive canapés and enjoy live performances while the countdown builds to the big switch-on.
With Christmas carols, Santa dropping by and an extended happy hour at the Karadiya Bar, it’s a bright and cheerful start to the celebrations ahead.

A lovely place and space for a retreat, beautiful grounds and the ocean, a lagoon and a river right there. The staff were super friendly especially Dinesh who made amazing new towel animals everyday and made sure any requests on room cleaning were taken care off. The buffet was really good with lots of variety each day - ate 10 meals there and didn't get bored.
Beautiful room, nice location and kids friendly staff !
