Makutu’s Island of Chandler, Arizona hosted its third annual family-friendly New Year’s Eve celebration this past Sunday with Bollywood theme and it’s safe to say that the party animals in attendance certainly did not leave disappointed.
“We are happy to have hosted a sell out crowd this year too. We are into families getting together and building relationships. The community support is overwhelmingly positive and we are thrilled with the response”, said Kiran and Kiran Vedantam, the owners of Makutu’s Island.
Designed with a tropical theme, Makutu’s is a lush, exciting indoor “island” with towering trees, climbs, mysterious caves, a “bungee jump”, a zip line, an arcade, a café, and a special toddler zone. The centerpiece of Makutu’s Island is a magnificent indoor tree. The tree is filled with tunnels, tubes, mole- holes, and slides. The “snake” slide is a sure thrill as it starts on the forth level and winds more than 35 feet around the outside of the tree to it’s base. After exploring the tree, many of guests found themselves in one of the three adjoining play structures including the Blue Fantasy Tree, Pirates Cove and Palm Slide featuring tunnels, caves, and a zip line!
Guests enjoyed delicious Indian specialties catered by Curry Bowl while DJ Kumar’s high-intensity music kept spirits high and hands even higher. Although the celebration was unquestionably exciting, mama bears and papa bears were able to experience the evening with ease knowing that their cubs could have a blast in the trustworthy hands of the Makutu’s Island Natives. It was optional for children to dance with their parents, adventure the lush island or participate in activities coordinated by staff. Kids had a special kidcare and craft sessions, along with the magical tree, slides, zip tracker.
Additionally, several families enjoyed priceless raffle prizes provided by Makutu’s Island and the local businesses catering to the community – Arushee Divyakirti with New York Life; Engineering for kids; Rishin Patel, Liberty Mutual Insurance; Amish Mistri, Navya Wedding planners; Mortgage loan financing consultant: Kavita Bhatia, Academy Mortgage: and Kirans & Associates Realty.
Among the many amusements of the night, families also had the option of freezing their precious memories in time with on-site professional photographer Sierra Medina.
“We are motivated to make it fun for the entire family and we have learnings from each time we do an event of this magnitude and we will keep on improving to bring the best family fun to the valley. We are motivated to bring world class vendors to help cater the event in the future”, said Kiran Vedantam.
