Amangiri, the acclaimed luxury resort nestled within the vast Colorado Plateau, is set to host an unforgettable festive season from December 23, 2025, through January 1, 2026. The program is designed to blend cherished holiday traditions with the unique, awe-inspiring landscape of the American Southwest, offering guests a series of daily activities, immersive workshops, and exclusive culinary events.

The resort’s festive schedule promises a harmonious balance of adventure, relaxation, and cultural enrichment. Guests can choose to stay at the main Amangiri resort or the more adventurous Camp Sarika, with both locations offering a full slate of events.

A Daily Festive Rhythm

The holiday period is structured around a collection of daily rituals. Mornings begin with wellness sessions at the Aman Spa, offering yoga, meditation, or fitness classes. Throughout the day, professional guides lead hikes across the resort's designated trails, sharing insights into the area's unique ecology, geology, and human history.

As the afternoon unfolds, the resort's restaurants invite guests for a festive high tea featuring hot cocoa and traditional holiday sweets. The daily sunset is celebrated with a curated selection of drinks at the resort library or Camp Sarika lounge. Evenings are filled with live musical performances and classic holiday activities like s'mores-making around a campfire and movie nights in the private lounge.

Immersive Cultural & Stellar Experiences

Beyond the regular events, Amangiri has curated a selection of daily immersive experiences that delve deeper into the local culture and environment. Guests can participate in hands-on workshops, such as creating authentic Navajo dreamcatchers with artist Pearl Seaton or crafting their own scented candles inspired by the Southwest.

Wildlife enthusiast Nancy Moore will host presentations on the region's fascinating creatures, from snakes and scorpions to tarantulas. Cultural highlights include mesmerizing Native American hoop dancing performances by Tomas Hunt, who was born and raised on the Navajo Nation. As night falls, the exceptionally dark skies become a canvas for guided stargazing sessions with astronomy enthusiast Rich George, utilizing a powerful Orion telescope.
