“Top end luxury and serene zen spaces on the edge of a coconut grove overlooking a wonderful beach. Sparing contemporary-chic design and fantastic facilities in this natural location. Sumptious cuisine enjoyed with a lovely sea view. A contemporary beach haven. ”

Hotel review

Sitting on raised ground, this calm and deeply relaxing Aman resort overlooks a stunning beach through leaning palm trees, under which fishing boats nestle. There are thirty suites, each with its own plunge pool; the architecture is elegant and spare, yet not unwelcoming, claiming homage to renowned Sri Lanka architect Geoffrey Bawa. Sip excellent and imaginative cocktails on the terrace at sundown, or in the large, lowlit but friendly bar. There is a well- stocked library for bookworms. Professional, understated staff.
