With school holidays fast approaching, families can finally enjoy a well-earned break and plan holidays without working around school timetables. While there is no shortage of restaurants to explore and sights to see, a fun-filled escape to a resort with friendly, rewards-laden competitions makes for an equally tempting option. In that spirit, Padma Hotels presents the Padma Championship across its resorts, each tailored to the unique character of its setting.
Taking place over the first weekend of July, from 5–6 July 2025, the two-day competition reflects the growing interest in sports and wellness, while offering guests a refreshing addition to their holiday itinerary. The special event builds on the success of last year’s Easter Padma Golden Egg Hunt, once again presenting a curated line-up of engaging experiences for the whole family.
Each Padma Hotels property brings its own twist to the tournament. At Padma Resort Legian, racquet aficionados can rally it out in a high-stakes Tennis Tournament, while the more adventurous can join the splashing challenge of Running on Water, racing across inflatable platforms where balance meets aquatic fun. Over in the highlands, Padma Resort Ubud sets the scene for an Archery Contest in its lush gardens, where steady hands and sharp eyes aim straight for the bull’s eye.
For virtual challengers, strive for victory with favourite football team in E-Sports Football tournament at Padma Hotel Semarang. Furthermore, Resinda Hotel Karawang invites aspiring hoopers for basketball Shooting Challenge at its family-friendly venue. To note, Padma Hotel Bandung will be sitting out this year’s tournament as it embarks on an exciting transformation.
Beyond athletic pursuits, younger guests can dive into a line-up of playful challenges crafted just for them. There’s the energetic Kids’ Obstacle Blitz, where speed and agility take centre stage; the light-hearted yet competitive Duck Hunt, ideal for budding sharpshooters; and the ever-popular Corn Hole Tournament, perfect for little strategists with a keen eye. With exclusive prizes and merchandise up for grabs, every contest promises both thrill and reward.
It is this thoughtful attention to family-friendly fun such as Padma Championship alongside exceptional service and facilities that recently earned Padma Hotels a string of prestigious accolades by TripAdvisor in the recent TripAdvisor Travellers’ Choice Awards 2025.
