TLTB loves ... a good party

Happy fifteenth anniversary Soneva Fushi (one of TLTB's favourite resorts) We hear they partied hard at the 'barefoot ballroom' last night. A star-studded guest list of those who love the resort including actress Tilda Swinton and racer Michael Schumacher partied to the Jolly Boys, a Jamaican reggae band notorious for having played at Errol Flynn's wild parties back in the 50s . At sunset guestes were ferried to a sandbank in small dhonis, to toast the night with champagne and cocktails. Soneva Fushi's team of chefs prepared a feast of using ingredients from Soneva Fushi's organic garden. Sonu Shivdasani, Chairman and CEO of Six Senses and his wife Eva Malstrom Shivdasani, Creative Director, hosted over seventy guests for the dinner. All seated at a long U-shaped table on the sandbank. Among the many Fushi regulars invited were; Michael Shumacher, Tilda Swinton and partner Sandro Kopp, Olivia Palermo, Elsa Zylberstein, Martin Clunes, Fabian Cousteau, Willa Keswick, Paul Smith, Francois Berléand, Sir Simon Rattle, Mark Jones and Giovanni Bignani. Apparently a n amazing array of chocolate puddings, cakes and 60 varieties of ice-cream were served (guests had to hit the dance floor to burn calories). We have it on good authority that host Sonu was one of the last to leave and that he enjoyed the party so much that he's thinking of doing it all again next year...
