Lily Beach Resort & Spa recently hosted a residency featuring Vyacheslav Kasitsyn, one of the most prominent names in Moscow’s contemporary bar scene, from 2nd to 10th May 2026.

Currently the Bar Manager at The Carlton Lounge & Bar at The Carlton, Moscow, Vyacheslav has built an impressive reputation for refined mixology and innovative storytelling through cocktails. He began his career at the award-winning City Space Bar, recognised both in Russia and internationally, before contributing to several standout bar and restaurant concepts at Lucky Group.

Renowned for crafting modern classics with precision and narrative depth, Vyacheslav’s creations reflected contemporary elegance, technical mastery, and a strong sense of place. Each cocktail was thoughtfully composed—balancing innovation with timeless sophistication. During his Maldives residency, guests at Lily Beach enjoyed a curated cocktail menu inspired by Moscow’s dynamic bar culture, reimagined within the island’s idyllic tropical setting.

Exclusive evening showcases and limited-edition signature cocktails highlighted his artistry, adding a distinctive international flair. As one of the Maldives’ most distinguished all-inclusive offerings, the Platinum Plan at Lily Beach seamlessly unites exceptional dining with premium inclusions.

Guests indulged in diverse buffet and à la carte experiences across multiple restaurants, complemented by an extensive selection of premium wines, spirits, signature cocktails, and a replenished minibar. Elevating the culinary journey even further, Les Turquoise d’Aqua proudly received the Wine Spectator Award of Excellence 2024, underscoring the resort’s commitment to world-class wine curation.

From elegant beachfront dinners to relaxed overwater evenings, this exclusive guest bartender event was an unforgettable fusion of global mixology and Maldivian luxury—only at Lily Beach Resort & Spa.
