The Harmattan breeze had finally given way to a glorious burst of sunshine, the perfect weather for the most anticipated event of the season – the “Splash & Shine” pool party held at the serene Ametaco Guesthouse just on the outskirts of Kasoa. From the vibrant décor to the infectious music, everything about the day screamed celebration, Ghanaian style.
The venue was transformed into a tropical paradise. Colourful balloons bobbed in the gentle breeze, strings of fairy lights twinkled above the pool, and the aroma of sizzling suya filled the air. Guests, dressed in their most stylish swimwear, mingled and laughed, the sound of splashing water and lively conversation creating a vibrant atmosphere. From trendy bikinis to stylish swim trunks, everyone brought their A-game, adding to the fashionable flair of the event.
No Ghanaian party is complete without good food, and “Splash & Shine” certainly delivered. Alongside the mouthwatering suya, there were platters of jollof rice, fried plantain, and kelewele, a true feast for the senses. Refreshing drinks, from chilled bissap to ice-cold Asanka Local Gin cocktails, kept everyone hydrated under the warm sun. The bartenders, with their infectious energy, kept the drinks flowing, ensuring no glass was ever empty.
The music was a highlight of the day. A local DJ spun a mix of popular Afrobeat tunes, Highlife classics, and Amapiano hits, keeping the energy high and the dance floor packed. Guests showed off their best moves, from the Azonto to the Shaku Shaku, creating a spectacle of vibrant Ghanaian dance. Even those who weren’t dancing tapped their feet and sang along, caught up in the infectious rhythm.
But the party wasn’t just about the music and food. Fun and games were also on the agenda. Guests participated in exciting pool games, from water volleyball to splash contests, with winners receiving fun prizes. There was also a photo booth with props, where guests could capture memories of the day with their friends.
As the sun began to set, casting a golden glow over the venue, the party showed no signs of slowing down. The atmosphere was electric, with everyone enjoying the last moments of the day. “Splash & Shine” was more than just a pool party; it was a celebration of Ghanaian culture, music, food, and community. It was a day filled with laughter, fun, and unforgettable memories, a perfect way to embrace the warm Ghanaian spirit.
