“A smart resort boasting spectacular sea views on Sri Lanka’s dazzling east coast. Enormous rooms are smart and contemporary with whitewashed walls, modern art and lovely, indulgent bathrooms. Rooms face a large pool; there's a laid-back atmosphere and you're just steps from a white sand beach.”

Hotel Review
Set at the far end of picture-perfect Pasikudah Bay, Anilana offers bright and spacious rooms, centred around a large and lovely pool. Wake up to the lapping of the waves and perch on your private terrace, overlooking leafy palms and the ocean beyond. Tuck into a tasty breakfast in the huge open-air dining room before setting off along the sand — in season, the sea on Sri Lanka’s east coast is famously clear and calm, and the huge, quiet bay is pure magic. Try your hand at jet-skiing or waterskiing, peer at the iridescent fish flitting along on the reef whilst snorkelling or diving, or simply unwind at the Anilana Spa. Round off a blissful day with cocktails on the terrace and a superb Batticaloa prawn curry, before strolling down to the beach to stare up at a sky full of stars.
