AT BRITTANY COMMUNITIES

A Season of Timeless Tractitions

Villar Group Chairman Manny Villar and Brittany key officers led the ceremonial lighting of Crosswinds' giant Christmas tree in a dazzling start to the holiday season.

More than just a season, the holidays at Brittany communities have become a cherished tradition.

Christmas celebrations here have become a warm, familiar experience the residents have grown into, shaped by the beauty of the spaces they call home and the meaningful connections that make the holidays feel complete. Such gatherings reflect Brittany’s signature elegance, unfolding under a canopy of lights, in community moments that honor family and friendship, and through experiences that linger long after the season ends.

This is the heart of Brittany’s Timeless Traditions, a holiday culture that has quietly flourished across its communities.

These traditions include annual lightings that spark the start of the season, gatherings that bring homeowners and partners together, and merrymakings set in signature Brittany settings—European-inspired landscapes, peaceful enclaves, and nature-rich surroundings that elevate even the simplest moments. Year after year, these traditions remain ever so meaningful, as they remind communities to slow down and let a little Christmas magic slip into their everyday routines.

Across Brittany’s estates, these traditions unfold in their own distinct ways, shaped by the character of each community but tied together by the same spirit of togetherness.
