Slowly but surely, spring is on the way and there is no doubt the Maltese islands look their best between April and June when the countryside is green and dappled with splashes of colour, the sea a vibrant blue and the air crisp and fresh.

Easter time symbolises the awakening of nature after the dull winter season, a turning point people all look forward to with renewed vigour. Easter Sunday lunches are an established ritual, the preferred way to socialise and celebrate this feast with family and friends in a congenial atmosphere.

The Riviera Resort & Spa has long been a favourite venue and enjoys a loyal following. This is no surprise since the location in Marfa Bay and the surrounding environment are sought-after weekend destinations. After the traffic congestions and the polluted air suffered through the working week, the drive north is a welcome and exhilarating experience.

Parking is never a problem and the absence of passing traffic adds to the tranquillity of the place. The view of Comino and Gozo across the channel is very picturesque and the overall feeling is one of holiday, relaxation and the right mood to sit down and enjoy a sumptuous buffet among friends. The food is plentiful and varied but if this on its own is not enough, the live background music and children’s animation add to the overall sense of the occasion.

Bookings for the Easter Sunday buffet lunch at The Riviera Resort & Spa can be made by calling on 2152 5900, 2289 9678 or 9929 0012
