The stage is set at Pullman Maldives Maamutaa for a festive season unlike any other, where every corner of the island promises a touch of wonder. From 22 December 2025 to 7 January 2026, guests are invited to join ‘A Great Holiday Adventure’ — a celebration filled with color, music, flavors, and surprises waiting around every corner.
Christmas at Pullman: Whoville Wonderland
The heart of Christmas at Pullman beats to the rhythm of the Dr Seuss inspired Whoville. Expect playful décor, the arrival of Santa and the “Grinch,” with themed experiences that will wrap guests into a world of festive fun. The week begins with the iconic Christmas Tree Lighting and continues with seafood feasts, grill nights, and a BBQ pool party under the stars.
On Christmas Eve, Mélange transforms into Whoville Wonderland for a bountiful buffet, preceded by a pre-dinner cocktail gathering at The HUB. Christmas Day invites guests to linger over flavors from dawn until afternoon with a marathon of dishes: a long breakfast that seamlessly flows into brunch until 3 PM. After all, who needs lunch when breakfast continues well past midday? Daily live music and performances add to the atmosphere, while Whoville “citizens” keep the celebration lighthearted.
New Year’s at Pullman: The Grand Spectacle
As the year draws to a close, the island shifts into full spectacle mode, inspired by the bold energy of The Greatest Showman. The celebrations flow with a Last Getaway Party by The HUB and a steady pulse of music and live acts across the festive stretch. On New Year’s Eve, guests will gather at The HUB for pre-dinner cocktails before stepping into New Year’s Eve Grand Spectacle Dinner at Mélange, complete with vibrant shows, live entertainment, and fireworks on the Mélange Beach to mark the countdown.
New Year’s Day carries the indulgence forward with another extended breakfast-tobrunch feast lasting until 3 PM, the perfect start to a fresh year without a rush.
Kids, Wellness, and More
Younger guests are never left out, with daily activities designed just for them, keeping the island buzzing with creativity and play while parents relax or join in the larger festivities. The Pullman Spa will also carry festive promotions, offering the perfect chance to pause and recharge between the celebrations.
A Great Holiday Adventure Awaits
“Christmas here is never ordinary — we’ve invited the Grinch himself, but don’t worry, he’s only stealing the spotlight, not the holiday spirit,” said Riaan Drever, Cluster General Manager. “Then, as the countdown begins, the island flips into showtime with all the spectacle of a big top; fireworks, music, and a Grand Spectacle dinner to remember. It’s a holiday adventure where you never quite know what’s coming next, and that’s exactly the fun of it.”
From tree-lightings to Fireworks, from Whoville Wonderland to the Grand Spectacle, Pullman Maldives Maamutaa is ready to turn the season into a story worth telling, and one worth remembering long after the New Year begins.
