Every year it is the children who enjoy Christmas the most. It is these little ones who wait for this one day for an entire year and all celebrations are centered on making their little dreams come true. In keeping with this tradition Waters Edge has transformed its premises into the magical ‘Winter Wonderland’ complete with Santa’s sleigh and reindeer parked on the front floor, a giant Christmas tree made from glass tubes and fairy lights illuminating the entire surroundings.
On 6 December the hotel will hold its third annual ‘Kiddies Christmas Party’ at the Grand Lawn from 3:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. Santa himself will make a non-traditional yet grand appearance on a sea plane while his merry little elves will arrive on a boat. The traditional lighting of the Waters Edge Christmas tree will take place later that evening.
Commenting on the event that has been a huge success over the past two years, Director – Sales and Marketing at Waters Edge Thilanka Muthukumarana noted: “The Waters Edge Kiddies Christmas Party is the highlight of the season for us at the hotel. Every department gets so deeply involved in making this day extra special for all the little ones who come in wide-eyed wonder to see what special offerings we have for them every year. Our chefs go all out to make mouth-watering treats, while the décor and event teams put their creative caps on to make magic. We are very excited to see the reactions of the children this year when they walk in to the Winter Wonderland.”
Kids of all ages and their parents can enjoy a variety of games and activities such as water walkers, face painting, nail art, pony rides, balloon magic, an assortment of bouncers, bowling, a balloon dunk tank, lazer games, merry-go-round, giant wheel, fun train rides, and much more. Special appearances by cartoon characters and superheroes such as Dora, Batman, Ironman and Thor will also be a highlight of the evening.
A scrumptious buffet overflowing with traditional Christmas favourites will also be on display as a compliment to the culinary prowess of the Waters Edge chefs. Parents also have the opportunity of handing over their children’s special Christmas gifts to the hotel prior to the event so that Santa can hand them out on the day.
Too add even more reason to celebrate, Waters Edge will also offer many prizes and surprises to kid’s participating at the event. The first prize is a 15 minute scenic helicopter ride for four people sponsored by SimpliFly, while the second prize will be a complimentary 10pax kid’s birthday party at Water Edge. A third place winner will also walk away with a complimentary 2kg decorative cake from Waters Edge for their next birthday. Participants can also enjoy a 15 minute scenic seaplane ride from 3:30 p.m.-6:30 p.m. at a cost of 7,500 rupees per person.
For reservations and handing over gifts, please contact Nishara on 0777 251775. Tickets will be priced at Rs. 2,200 net per person.
