Set within the serene beauty of the Maldives, Sheraton Maldives Full Moon Resort & Spa invites guests to celebrate the Spring Festival in a setting that brings families together while honoring the timeless traditions of the Lunar New Year. From February 16-18, 2026, the island transforms into a festive sanctuary adorned with red and gold accents, where the spirit of reunion, prosperity, and renewal unfolds naturally by the sea.
Crafted especially for families and multi-generational travel, the three-day Spring Festival program blends meaningful cultural rituals with the relaxed elegance of island living. Guests are welcomed to enjoy vibrant dragon and lion dances symbolizing strength and good fortune, alongside interactive experiences such as lantern making and calligraphy, each thoughtfully designed to celebrate harmony and new beginnings.
At the heart of the festivities is the Prosperity Eve Dinner by the Beach, a celebratory reunion feast set against the ocean at Anchorage Beach. Featuring Chinese-inspired delicacies complemented by international favorites, the evening reflects the importance of gathering around the table with loved ones. Live performances and a traditional Dragon Dance set an auspicious tone, marking the arrival of the New Year beneath a starlit Maldivian sky.
Throughout the Spring Festival, thoughtful details enrich every moment. Lucky red envelopes, family friendly activities, and curated island experiences invite guests of all ages to connect, laugh, and create lasting memories together. As evening falls, lantern lit moments, illuminating performances, and gentle beachside gatherings offer space for reflection, gratitude, and togetherness.
Wellness and balance, central intentions for the year ahead, are seamlessly woven into the celebration. Guests are invited to restore energy and harmony through the Chinese Element Wellness Ritual at Shine Spa, inspired by the five elements of Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, and Water. This restorative journey is designed to realign body and mind, offering a meaningful and mindful start to the New Year.
“Spring Festival is a time of reunion and shared joy,” shares Greg Allan, General Manager of Sheraton Maldives Full Moon Resort & Spa. “We are honored to welcome our guests as they celebrate this important occasion with their families, surrounded by nature, comfort, and a sense of home, wherever they may be in the world.”
For guests planning a Chinese New Year holiday and beyond, the Endless Summer offer is available for booking through February 28, 2026. The offer includes up to USD 150 in resort credit, daily breakfast, lunch, and dinner at selected restaurants, as well as special dining credits at signature venues Baan Thai and Sea Salt.
