Hotel Review

Elegant traditional design meets superb service at Anantaya, a splendid hotel situated on one of Sri Lanka’s most striking beaches. Spacious rooms and suites offer stunning ocean views — whilst some suites and villas come with their own private pools for maximum indulgence. Treat yourself to a marvellous massage at the soothing spa, or try your hand at beach volleyball, badminton, jet skiing or banana boating before taking a refreshing dip in the pool. Stroll along the beach, hit the well-equipped gym or snorkel to spot bright coloured tropical fish in the turquoise sea. Evenings are for feasting on fabulous seafood at the restaurant, whilst nights are for admiring skies full of stars. A very special spot, perfect for couples or families keen to keep everyone entertained.
