The spirit of Christmas swept across Sri Lanka as Amaya Resorts & Spas, one of the island’s most preferred hospitality brands, hosted its annual cake mixing ceremonies.
At Amaya Hills, snuggled high above Kandy’s mountain ranges, the festive season began with joy and laughter as guests and team members joined hands in a spirited celebration. The mountain air was filled with the fragrance of rich spices and candied fruit as the mixing began, accompanied by the soft hum of carols and the unmistakable charm of a Christmas in the hills.
By the eastern coast, Amaya Beach, Pasikudah, brought the festivities to life by the sea. The resort’s lawns were transformed into a vibrant celebration space where guests gathered for an afternoon of merriment. The occasion captured the resort’s signature blend of tropical elegance and seaside warmth, setting the tone for a joyful Christmas by the beach.
The highlight of this year’s celebrations took place at Amaya Lake, Dambulla, where the resort made history as the first hotel in Sri Lanka to host a cake mixing ceremony on a lake. Guests and team members gathered on canoes floating gracefully across the tranquil waters of Kandalama Lake, surrounded by rippling reflections and the breathtaking scenery of Sri Lanka’s Cultural Triangle. Clad in traditional Sri Lankan attire, participants joined in this remarkable celebration that seamlessly blended heritage, creativity and festive spirit.
Across every property, the celebrations reflected Amaya’s enduring commitment to creating heartfelt experiences that bring people together. Guests, staff and the extended Amaya family shared moments of joy and anticipation as they marked the beginning of the Christmas season with the warmth and spirit of Amaya Resorts & Spas. COMMENTS
