Jumeirah Vittaveli brings a new first to the Maldives this festive season with the opening of the destinations first ice rink. The rink allows guests to be carried away into a small winter wonderland of their own, while being enveloped by the warmth of the tropics.
General Manager Amit Majumder comments: "The ice rink
is a perfect expression of our goal to always wow guests. We have many guests
who keep coming back to us and I often hear that one of the reasons for their
returns is that they love to be surprised by our updates and developments each
time they come. Apart from the ice rink, we have some exciting changes in our
rooms and dining outlets upcoming, which we will announce in the near future."
In its quest to constantly surprise guests, the resort
management has found a way to transport winter cheer into a tropical climate
while still adhering to their core sustainability beliefs as a Green Globe
certified property. The ice rink has been built in partnership with Glice®, a company that manufactures artificial ice plates.
Glice® offers ice skating indoor and outdoor anytime and in any climate
conditions. Contrary to a conventional ice skating rink, a complex molecular
technology makes Glice® synthetic ice rinks function entirely without water and
at a zero-energy level.
Jumeirah Vittavelis festive season will be celebrated
with a carnival around the globe theme this year. Guests will enjoy lavish
gala dinners at Samsara Beach, live bands and dance troupes, Santa Claus will
visit on Christmas Day, and December 31 will see a vibrant New Years party
including DJ, fire dance, and fireworks.
