COMO Cocoa Island and COMO Maalifushi Curate Special Lunar New Year and Valentine’s Day Experiences
COMO Cocoa Island and COMO Maalifushi resort in the Maldives have come up with an offer this February for travelers where they can soak in the revelry of two of the most significant celebrations of the year – Lunar New Year, marking the beginning of the Year of the Horse, and Valentine's Day – in the serene surroundings of the island. Peter Nilsson, Managing Director of COMO Maldives, said: “We are delighted to invite guests to come and celebrate renewal, connection, and love at both our islands this season. Be it the bold start of Lunar New Year parties or the sweet intimacy of Valentine’s Day festivities, all these events have been curated to reflect a rich cultural heritage while embracing the serenity and beauty that the Maldives has to offer.”
Lunar New Year: Welcoming Renewal by the Ocean
Similarly, for those who celebrate at COMO Cocoa Island, the festivities mark a time for renewal, wellness, and reconnecting with nature by exploring and discovering colourful coral gardens and reef sharks, as well as a new beginning through wellness activities led by visiting wellness practitioner Kimiko Briody. The festivities close with an Oriental-themed dinner, gathering people together for traditional celebrations to honour old customs and new beginnings. Families and friends come together under the open skies at COMO Maalifushi, where a festive celebration of being together takes place. At its heart, a lantern-lit reunion feast at the sea takes place as a highlight of a memorable and significant way of ushering in the New Year of the Fire Horse, in an attractive coastal setting with flavors of the season, complemented by top-class diving, snorkeling, and a day of cultural activities.
Overall, across all resorts, the Lunar New Year experiences showcase a blend of cultural heritage, wellness, and island lifestyle.
Valentine’s Day: Romance, COMO Style
