This festive season, the Maldives glows with renewed charm as Atmosphere Hotels & Resorts and Colours of OBLU unveil a vibrant lineup of Christmas and New Year celebrations across their island resorts. Blending tropical indulgence with festive traditions, the celebrations begin ahead of Christmas and flow seamlessly into the New Year, creating a season filled with warmth, joy and island-inspired magic.

Two signature resorts, Atmosphere Kanifushi Maldives and OBLU SELECT Lobigili, take centre stage with distinctive festive experiences designed to reflect the spirit of the season while staying true to their unique all-inclusive island identities.

At Atmosphere Kanifushi Maldives, celebrations run from 21 December 2025 to 7 January 2026, bringing together relaxed mornings, festive evenings and lively beachside moments. Guests can start their days with sunrise yoga sessions or calm lagoon cruises, followed by cheerful gatherings around the Grand Kanifushi Christmas Tree, carol evenings and themed celebrations. Christmas Eve features Santa’s arrival, flowing drinks, upbeat music and a beachfront gala that continues into an open-air DJ party. Christmas Day offers a slower pace with a festive lunch, live music and a Cinema Under the Stars experience. The season reaches its peak with the Twilight Fantazia New Year’s Gala, where fireworks light up the beach as 2026 is welcomed in style. Complementing the celebrations is a festive offer that includes a 20% saving on a minimum four-night stay, complimentary round-trip seaplane transfers, the signature all-inclusive KANIFUSHI Plan, curated festive dining experiences, live entertainment and a New Year’s Eve gala dinner.

OBLU SELECT Lobigili presents a more intimate festive escape for couples, with celebrations taking place from 22 December 2025 to 9 January 2026. The adults-only island sets a relaxed and romantic tone, with days featuring lagoon adventures, wellness sessions and couples’ workshops. As Christmas approaches, the island comes alive with a tree-lighting ceremony, seasonal touches and cosy evening entertainment. Christmas Eve includes sunset cocktails, a gala dinner at Ylang Ylang and a Movie Under the Stars. The festivities culminate on New Year’s Eve with a Masquerade-themed celebration filled with music, dancing and fireworks over the lagoon. Guests can also enjoy a festive offer with up to 20% off on a minimum four-night stay, complimentary round-trip transfers, the all-inclusive LOBI Plan, Christmas tree lighting, gingerbread decorating, a festive pool party, a Christmas Eve gala dinner and a cosy movie night under the stars.
