The day brought together cancer survivors, fighters, and resort team members.
Doha, Qatar: Hilton Salwa Beach Resort & Villas hosted Pinktober Wellness Day on October 15, uniting cancer survivors, fighters, resort team members, media representatives, and key influencers in a day dedicated to health, strength, and community.
In collaboration with the Qatar Cancer Society (QCS), the event aimed to raise awareness of breast cancer while celebrating hope and resilience through a series of inspiring wellness experiences.
The day began with a Breast Cancer Awareness Talk led by one of the Health educators at QCS. They shared valuable insights on prevention, early detection, and the importance of regular screening and debunked some myths. Guests were deeply touched by the personal stories shared by Xenia Nemeth, a cancer warrior, and Marwa Adel, a breast cancer survivor; both of whom delivered heartfelt messages of courage, positivity, and determination.
Following the awareness session, guests enjoyed a Pink Brunch at Tourath, a creative Sip & Paint session at Nesma Lounge overlooking Hilton Salwa 3.5km beach and lighthouse, and a calming Sunset Yoga experience led by instructor Oana Maria. The day reflected Hilton Salwa’s ongoing commitment to wellness and community support.
“At Hilton Salwa Beach Resort & Villas, we believe in using our resources to make a positive difference,” said Petr Pisecky, General Manager. “This is a time to honour the strength of those impacted by breast cancer and to foster awareness, compassion, and hope within our community. It was truly inspiring to see survivors, guests, and partners come together for such a meaningful cause.” As part of the event, Hilton Salwa Beach Resort & Villas was recognised by QCS with a certificate of appreciation for its continued partnership and participation for the third consecutive year — a gesture that reflects the organisation’s gratitude for the resort’s ongoing support and contribution to raising awareness.
To continue the spirit of giving, the resort has also launched a Pinktober Spa promotion running from October 20 to 27, where guests can enjoy 20% off all spa treatments, and 5% of proceeds will be donated to the Qatar Cancer Society, inviting guests to relax, rejuvenate, and contribute to a greater purpose.
