An Enchanted Easter at Hilton Maldives Amingiri Resort & Spa
In the week leading up to Easter Sunday, holidaymakers of all ages at Hilton Maldives Amingiri Resort & Spa can delight in a lively program of curated dining experiences, themed children’s activities and daily events inspired by charming fairyland tales.
Easter Sunday celebrations begin with a colourful egg-painting workshop on the beach, followed by an Easter Parade around the island, a visit from the Easter Bunny, and the traditional egg hunt.
The day ends with a cocktail party, a buffet featuring specialities such as lamb navarin, chermoula beef roast, honey-glazed ham, and the traditional Easter simnel cake, and an after-party with live DJ music, all at the vibrant Aura Pool Bar.
Family Fun
Curious little travellers will find plenty to entertain them at Krakengiri Kids’ Club, one of the largest kids’ clubs in the Maldives. Daily activities include themed arts and crafts such as bunny masks and Easter basket-making, face painting and glitter tattoos, garden games and movie nights.
Families can also enjoy a wide range of activities together, from daytime pool parties at Aura and milkshake workshops at Re: Fuel, to sunset yoga, fun runs and sports matches against the resort team.
The more adventurous can explore the marine marvels of the Maldives with underwater egg hunts,
guided excursions and sunset cruises.
Inspired Flavours
The resort’s resident experts have crafted an array of creative dining experiences inspired by the season. The sommelier will conduct a wine tasting on the beach, while mixologists present inventive lagoon cocktails at Aura and golden sundowners at Sip Hut.
Guests also have the special opportunity to gather over a hearty seaside feast at the Beach Market Buffet, savour a delectable four-course menu created by Sicilian chef Silvio Zaccareo, paired with carefully selected vintages at overwater speciality restaurant Origin, or attend the exclusive Chef’s Table at Beach Shack. Aptly called Fire and Smoke, the six-course menu showcases jarrah woodsmoked white asparagus panna cotta, sumac lamb chops and a spectacular grilled dessert of orange and chocolate, revealed beneath a layer of flickering flames.
An Accessible Escape
Only a 20-minute speedboat ride away from Velana International Airport, the all-pool villa resort is an easily accessible destination for junior and seasoned travellers alike. Young families can stay in the One-bedroom Family Beach Pool Villa, which can accommodate up to two adults and two children below 12 with a king bed and comfortably sized sofa bed. The villa also features a sundeck with a large swing, private outdoor pool, sun loungers and gazebo, and direct access to the beach, perfect for playtime in the sand.
Larger families can opt for the two-bedroom pool villas, with separate indoor and outdoor living spaces designed for socialising. Select two-bedroom beach pool villas also offer the additional flexibility of twin beds in the second bedroom.
