Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts has announced a curated collection of festive experiences for the 2025 holiday season, offering guests around the world the opportunity to celebrate with tailored stays that blend tradition, indulgence and innovation.
As travellers begin planning their seasonal getaways earlier than ever, the luxury brand has positioned itself as a leading destination for holiday escapes, whether in tropical villas, alpine lodges or cosmopolitan city retreats.
From candlelit dinners under the stars to teddy bear tea parties for children and festive rooftop villages, the programmes are designed to spark joy and create lasting memories.
Family-first celebrations
Four Seasons is highlighting family experiences to help guests establish new traditions. In Mexico, the Four Seasons Resort Punta Mita will host its annual Día de Muertos-inspired Catrina’s Fest, while Los Cabos at Costa Palmas is offering villa rentals with festive poolside barbecues.
In Chicago, the beloved Teddy Bear Tea returns, inviting children to build their own bears, while Vail’s WhoVail Holidays will transform the resort into a Christmas wonderland complete with carols and gingerbread displays.
Elsewhere, the Maldives at Kuda Huraa is offering families the chance to connect with the ocean through its Junior Marine Savers programme, while Paris’ George V is curating family excursions to Strasbourg’s renowned Christmas markets.
Flavours of the season
Food is central to the celebrations. Highlights include a Loy Krathong Festival dinner at the Tented Camp Golden Triangle in Thailand, a culinary residency by Chef Rocco DiSpirito at the Four Seasons Resort Nevis, and a cliffside dining and stargazing experience at Tamarindo, Mexico.
Other offerings include a Paniolo Ohana dinner in Hawaii with celebrity chef Tyler Florence, artisan panettone in Florence, and New Year soba celebrations in Kyoto. In Tokyo, SÉZANNE bakery will provide elegant seasonal confections, while in Hualalai and Tamarindo, exclusive dinners combine luxury with local culture.
Drinks, teas and festive cheer
Four Seasons properties are also embracing seasonal beverages. ARGO in Hong Kong will host eggnog-making workshops, while San Francisco at Embarcadero will serve cocktails inspired by the city’s projection arts festival.
Tea experiences include a winter wonderland service in Bangkok, a Catalan-inspired holiday tea in Beijing, and festive tree-crafting paired with afternoon tea in Kuala Lumpur.
Immersive installations
Guests can also explore festive markets, rooftop cabins and life-sized gingerbread houses. In Minneapolis, a Nordic-inspired rooftop village will feature pop-ups and heated cabins, while Austin’s Ice Rodeo will bring skating to the lakeside.
In Santa Fe, guests can enjoy private fireside evenings with a “fireplace butler”, while Marrakech will host a Moroccan-style festive market. Meanwhile, Guangzhou will feature a giant gingerbread house in its lobby.
Through these seasonal initiatives, Four Seasons aims to offer experiences that balance tradition with innovation, creating festive memories across its global portfolio.
