As the calendar inches closer to its final page, few destinations capture the spirit of celebration quite like Speke Resort Munyonyo — Uganda’s crown jewel of lakeside luxury. This year, the award-winning resort has unveiled its much-awaited 2025 Festive Season Programme, a signature mix of indulgence, entertainment, and family-friendly fun designed to help guests bid farewell to 2025 in spectacular style.

A December to Desire

Running from 19th December 2025 to 4th January 2026, the “Ultimate Year-End Escape” promises a season of opulence and relaxation on the serene shores of Lake Victoria. Guests can look forward to a full calendar of events — from sumptuous buffets and live bands to kids’ carnivals, movie nights, and spa indulgences — all tailored to create unforgettable memories for families, couples, and friends.

The resort’s festive room rates start at USD 139 per night between 19th–23rd December and 26th–30th December, as well as 1st–4th January 2026, while Christmas, Boxing Day, and New Year’s Eve are priced at USD 176 per night. With luxury accommodation, exceptional dining, and vibrant entertainment, the festive season at Speke Resort Munyonyo is shaping up to be the most sought-after holiday experience in East Africa.

Christmas by the Lake

On Christmas Day, guests can look forward to a dazzling line-up of activities that blend cultural flair with modern indulgence. The day begins with “Pamper the Pony” sessions for kids, followed by the signature “Around the World Christmas Lunch Buffet,” featuring an extensive spread of global cuisines accompanied by a live band and DJ.

Families will also enjoy Kids’ Movie Nights, visits to the Petting Zoo, and an enchanting evening of Christmas Cocktails and Dinner under the stars. It’s a celebration that captures both the magic of the holiday and the charm of Munyonyo’s lakeside hospitality.

Boxing Day Bliss

The festive spirit continues on Boxing Day with a Bubbly Brunch, live music, and a relaxed atmosphere perfect for unwinding after the Christmas rush. Guests can take leisurely walks along the lake, treat themselves to spa sessions, or simply bask in the rhythmic tunes from the resort’s live performers. For children, the Kids Carnival and Petting Zoo promise laughter and discovery — making it a true family holiday by the water.

Countdown in Style

When it comes to ringing in the New Year, Speke Resort Munyonyo pulls out all the stops. On New Year’s Eve, the resort transforms into a carnival of color, sound, and celebration. Guests are treated to a Chef’s Buffet Dinner, live band, DJ sessions, and electrifying performances by fire dancers and acrobats around the lakeside firepit.

As the clock nears midnight, the skies above Lake Victoria ignite with a breathtaking fireworks display, setting the tone for a joyful and hope-filled 2026. The night embodies what Speke Resort stands for — luxury, warmth, and unforgettable moments shared with those who matter most.

A Fresh Start for 2026

The celebrations continue on New Year’s Day, when guests can toast to new beginnings with a Bubbly Brunch, enjoy soothing live music, or relax by the pool as gentle breezes drift off the lake. For many, it’s the ideal way to begin the year — refreshed, inspired, and surrounded by the best of Ugandan hospitality.

Luxury, Leisure, and Legacy

Beyond its festive sparkle, Speke Resort Munyonyo remains a benchmark of luxury living and leisure in Uganda. Its lush gardens, equestrian center, world-class spa, and panoramic lake views make it a destination that seamlessly blends tranquility with sophistication. The resort’s attention to detail and dedication to crafting memorable experiences have cemented its reputation as East Africa’s preferred address for both celebration and serenity.
