Kaani Hotels, the leading hotels & guesthouse chain in the Maldives, proudly held its 12th anniversary with a week-long celebration honoring its remarkable journey and commitment to exceptional hospitality in the Maldives. 

Starting from humble beginnings with a single 18-room guesthouse, to now operating four properties and expanding toward an over 600-room portfolio, Kaani has been a leading example in the Maldivian tourism landscape since its inception. This celebration commemorates the company's growth and reinforces its dedication to both employee well-being and community development. 

The anniversary represents Kaani Hotels' success through a series of engaging employee-focused activities. The celebrations began on the 3rd December with a Flag Hoisting Ceremony inaugurated by the CEO, Mr Abdulla Nasheed & COO, Ms Asima Saleem, followed by a special WeRun Edition that was held to highlight health and well-being amongst employees, a Tree Planting Initiative and a team breakfast. Continuing the celebrations, the company conducted several other activities such as team-building fun games, a futsal competition, and a fishing competition to strengthen relationships and boost team spirit, allowing staff to enjoy shared experiences outside the workplace. The events concluded on 9th December with a colorful Gala Dinner and Awards Ceremony highlighting and honoring the outstanding achievements of Kaani Hotels' dedicated employees, reinforcing the company's appreciation for its team. 

As a gesture to recognize and reward long standing employee dedication, Kaani Hotels owners gifted two Umrah pilgrimages to employees selected through a lucky draw, who have completed 5 years of service. 

"Our 12-year journey is a testament to the incredible dedication and growth of our team," said Mr Abdulla Nasheed, CEO & MD of Kaani Hotels, "What started as a small guesthouse has transformed into a thriving hospitality group, it is testament to the incredible the unwavering commitment of our employees who have been the driving force behind our success. We extend heartfelt gratitude to our partners and guests for their support throughout this remarkable 12-year journey."
