Celebrate Lunar New Year with Aman

Amansara, Cambodia

At Amansara celebrations are imbued with the deep-rooted spirituality of surrounding Siem Reap, echoing the hotel’s royal past. Festivities begin on 28 January with a 30-minute Jasmine Blessing where a monk gently cleanses with fragrant, flower-infused water while chanting to purify body and spirit.

On 29 January, cocktails are served at dusk on the Roof Terrace, followed by an enchanting dining experience beside the main pool, comprising five-course menu of exceptional Asian cuisine and featured Chinese ingredients.

Later, mesmerising Apsara dancers captivate with their graceful moves, bringing blessings of prosperity as the evening draws to a memorable close.

Amantaka, Laos

Inspired by the peace intrinsic to its setting in Luang Prabang, Amantaka’s Lunar New Year calendar has been thoughtfully designed to echo the warm and gracious spirit of Laos.

The programme begins on 28 January with a traditional Lao Buddhist Water Blessing, where monks chant prayers for peace and renewal. As the sun sets on the Year of the Dragon, a captivating display of traditional Lao dances – including the Blessing and Frangipani Dance – bring good fortune for the year ahead.

The night unfolds with a celebration of Luang Prabang’s cultural diversity and a family-style Chinese dinner under the stars, featuring exquisite dishes from land and sea.

On New Year’s Day, a live barbecue station brings guests together once again, and the chance to join the Sai Bat Alms Offering – where monks and novices gracefully receive alms and rice prepared by the Amantaka family – fosters a meaningful connection with the local community.

BHUTAN

Across each of Amankora’s five lodges, the Year of the Snake is welcomed with a traditional Bhutanese- themed dinner, on 29 January, showcasing traditional favourites, accompanied by daily activities such as darts and archery. A blessing or water ceremony can also be organised to wish guests a prosperous year ahead.
