Learn about the Christmas and New Year’s menu options at Mansa and The Buenaventura Hotel

While there are people who love to cook and prepare for Christmas and New Years dinners, there are others who definitely prefer to delegate this responsibility to others. For this reason, we present the options that both kitchens have prepared for their guests.

Mansa

Mansa’s kitchen is receiving orders for its home delivery menu throughout the month of December. The options are designed for variety and include two side dishes.

The order for Christmas and New Years must be made 48 hours in advance by calling 6837-3118. The restaurant will have regular service and hours both on Christmas Eve and New Years.

The Buenaventura Golf & Beach Resort

The hotel is preparing two events with varied gastronomic proposals to satisfy the palates of all its guests. Both proposals will be Buffet style with a wide selection of starters, main dishes and desserts.

On New Year’s Eve there will be Live Music during dinner and a dance night at the Al Fresco terrace from 10 p.m. to 2:00 a.m. It includes party favors, a glass of sparkling wine and midnight grapes.
