This Easter, SO/ Maldives invites guests to celebrate the long weekend in signature style, where gourmet dining, curated experiences and effortless island glamour come together in a vibrant three-day programme from 3 to 5 April 2026.
Set against the turquoise waters of the Maldives, the celebration unfolds as a seamless blend of culinary artistry, music, and playful moments, capturing the spirit of the season in a setting that feels both sophisticated and relaxed.
A Culinary Journey to Begin
The festivities commence on Good Friday with an intimate Ocean Harvest & Wine Soirée at Citronelle Club.
Limited to just 20 guests, this refined five-course dining experience draws inspiration from South African flavours, thoughtfully paired with exceptional wines and guided by a Master Sommelier.
As night falls, the atmosphere shifts to The Lazuli Beach Club, where Vintage Nights bring together curated wines, special selections and laid-back DJ sounds beneath the Maldivian sky.
Sunset Rituals & Starlit Evenings
On Holy Saturday, guests gather at the Pavilion Bar for a Golden Hour Sundowner, where handcrafted cocktails meet panoramic sunset views.
The evening continues with a Starlit Feast at Lazuli Beach Club — a three-course dinner served under the stars, accompanied by the gentle rhythm of the ocean.
Later, Easter by the Beach invites guests to unwind with an open-air movie night, where soft sands, popcorn and sea breezes create a relaxed yet memorable island moment.
Easter Sunday by the Shore
The highlight of the weekend arrives on Easter Sunday, as the shoreline transforms into a lively celebration of spring and togetherness. Guests begin with Easter Bloom Cocktail Hours, featuring floral-inspired creations infused with fresh fruits and botanical notes.
The celebration culminates in the Easter Grand Beach Barbecue at Citronelle Club — a vibrant seaside feast where sizzling grills, ocean breezes and live music, including saxophone performances, create an atmosphere that is both festive and refined.
Family Moments to Treasure
Throughout the weekend, younger guests are invited to The Nest, where a curated programme of Easter crafts, games, egg decorating and the much-anticipated Easter Egg Hunt ensures joyful moments for all ages.
From face painting to dance sessions, the experience is designed to bring families together in a playful island setting.
Island Glamour, Reimagined
With its distinctive blend of style, creativity and immersive experiences, SO/ Maldives redefines the Easter escape — offering a celebration where guests can relax, reconnect and embrace the season in one of the world’s most captivating destinations.
