Swap chocolate eggs in chilly gardens for barefoot Easter celebrations on a tropical island as Holiday Inn Resort Kandooma Maldives unveils a vibrant Easter programme designed especially for families seeking sunshine, adventure and unforgettable island moments.

Set on a lush private island surrounded by turquoise lagoons and powder-white beaches, the resort's Easter festivities blend family adventures, island experiences and indulgent dining in true Maldivian style.

“While spring temperatures in the UK and much of Europe remain cool around the 15 degree mark, the Maldives offers inviting crystal-clear waters and warm tropical sunshine, with day-time temperatures of around 30 degrees, and wonderful balmy evenings perfect for a memorable Easter break.” said Sharon Garrett, Director of Marketing & Sustainability, Holiday Inn Resort Kandooma Maldives.

Guests can expect a week of fun-filled activities for all ages, from beach games, snorkelling adventures and creative craft sessions to relaxing spa rituals and sunset cocktails by the ocean. Younger guests will be kept happily entertained at the Kandoo Kids' Club, where a special Easter programme ensures plenty of excitement for little explorers.

The highlight of the celebrations is the Easter Sunday Dinner Buffet at Kandooma Café, a festive island feast bringing families together around a table filled with global flavours.

Guests can savour traditional Easter favourites from the carving station, vibrant salads and international cuisine, alongside chef-prepared dishes from live cooking stations. A dedicated Kids' Corner ensures younger diners have their own fun selections, while a spectacular dessert spread, complete with Kandooma Café's famous chocolate fountain and live crêpe station, provides a sweet finale to the evening.

Families planning an Easter holiday can choose from a range of holiday packages, including the resort's popular All-Inclusive offer and a Family Getaway package packed with added extras for parents and children alike. More details can be found here:  https://maldives.holidayinnresorts.com/offers/
