CINNAMON LODGE Habarana
THE FIVE-STAR CINNAMON LODGE occupies a tranquil lakeside spot amid the unspoilt rural setting on the outskirts of Habarana . At the heart of Sri Lanka ’ s Cultural Triangle , this is the destination for all-suite living in a setting of exquisite natural beauty and cultural importance . Taking inspiration from the nearby Ritigala Monastery , the lobby features white walls and lofty ceilings to create an impression of light and space , serenity and calm . The main building is two-storey , capped with rust-red roofing tiles , under which living and dining areas spill onto open-air verandas and down to an outdoor pool . While Tuskers Bar is available for poolside refreshments , Ehala Restaurant offers international cuisine in an open-air colonial-style dining room . Two further dining venues are the Lotus , which serves a heath-conscious menu of traditional , local and international dishes , using produce from the hotel ’ s own organic garden , and the Verandah for east-meets-west fusion flavours . Among the hotel ’ s 27 acres of forested land , 137 free-standing chalets enjoy an excellent degree of privacy and suite-only accommodation . Each has a separate living area and a balcony or terrace with views of the garden or the lake . Pastimes available at the hotel include tennis or badminton , while Azmaara Spa offers a range of health and beauty treatments in the modern spa facility embedded in the gardens .
