As the year 2025 came to an end, Santarena welcomed the New Year with a special sold-out dinner and New Year’s Eve party, hosted in collaboration with Celeste. It was a joyful night that brought together residents and visitors in Town to celebrate, dance and welcome the year ahead.
The evening began with a buffet-style dinner served outdoors on the terrace, where guests enjoyed a relaxed setting before moving inside for the party. The celebration continued in the Conversatorio, offering a comfortable, air-conditioned space that quickly filled with energy.
Music set the tone for the night, with a DJ and animated screens keeping the dance floor alive well past midnight. A cimarrona added a festive Costa Rican touch, along with accessories that guests happily wore throughout the night. At midnight, champagne and grapes were shared for the traditional countdown, with many guests following the custom of eating twelve grapes to welcome good fortune for the year ahead.
After midnight, partygoers were treated to late-night bites that were especially appreciated, including guacamole, tortilla and sweet potato chips, chicken bites and salsas, along with refreshing drinks to keep the celebration going. A playful station where guests could add face glitter became a favorite, with many leaving the party literally glowing.
Around 100 people joined the party inside, with additional guests enjoying the dinner outdoors. Throughout the night, the atmosphere remained lively and welcoming, with plenty of moments for photos, laughter and shared celebration.
It was a memorable way to say goodbye to the year and welcome the next, surrounded by good music, thoughtful details and a great community.
