Luxury linen, down duvets, private plunge pool and butler service. What’s not to like about these stylish rooms and its laid-back vibe? No riots of colour here, just earthy palettes for the furnishings, with hints of reds and brights to remind you that you’re in Sri Lanka after all. Beautiful views and plenty of tech touches, too.
With a huge vaulted ceiling, these rooms have stunning views over the ocean, and enjoy a split-level layout for the bedroom and living area. The bathroom is open plan and vast, and the hardwood décor feels very designer-esque. There’s also a furnished balcony.
With panoramic views from its ground floor location, this room style also promises you your own private plunge pool, and a vast amount of contemporary space, all finished in wood and marble. The open plan bathroom also has a Jacuzzi… just perfect after a day’s sunbathing.
When it’s simply not good enough just to have a plunge pool and a Jacuzzi, how about a cantilevered infinity-edge pool on your private balcony (we thought that would get your attention!). Being vast in space and luxurious in décor, this is a real indulgence – deserved, of course!
Koggala is a small town, but with a whole lot of personality. Situated on the south-eastern side of Sri Lanka, and a short trip away from the historic town of Galle, it has a luscious tropical environment and is home to some of the most beautiful beaches in the country. From Colombo you’ll need to head 35km north to Katunayake, and then from there it’s 180km to the resort. The hotel does provide an air taxi service.
There are four core restaurants to tempt your taste buds here, all very uniquely decorated in a modern and welcoming style. As a family, you’re bound to be particularly keen on Salty Snapper, which is open air in formation, shaded by trees, stares out on to the pool and ocean, and offers a mix of delicious favourites. There’s also the dedicated T Lounge for a cuppa and slice of cake!
