Planning a sun-soaked festive season in the tropics got a whole lot easier with a high-octane programme of electric pool parties, laid-back Christmas lunches and New Year’s Eve countdown spectaculars from Avani Chaweng Samui Hotel & Beach Club and Avani+ Samui. Whether guests are looking to make merry or chill on the beach, there is something for everyone.
At Avani Chaweng Samui, festivities will kick off with an epic pool party on Christmas Eve at SEEN Beach Club Samui, transformed into an Enchanted Forest for the occasion. Running from 11:00 am to 7:00 pm, the all-day beachside extravaganza will feature a rolling line-up of resident DJs, dancers and performers, along with SEEN’s famous fire show in the early evening. Later that night, SEEN Presents: House Beats Night will take guests on a trip down memory lane to the golden era of house music, with DJs playing remixes of the party anthems from the 2000s late into the night. Table packages of four people and more will be available for THB 3,500 with a bottle of spirit and mixers thrown in.
On Christmas Day, SEEN will be hosting its legendary brunch from 11:00 am till late, with chefs putting on a global culinary spread including live stations, a la carte dishes and festive specials.

Brunch prices start from THB 2,100++, including one complimentary bottle of bubbly for groups of four and more. Musical and other kinds of entertainment will come courtesy of back-to-back DJ sets, burlesque dancers, magicians and water sports on the beach.
