SURIYA LUXURY RESORT Kammala
BEACHFRONT NEAR WAIKKAL , the Suriya Luxury Resort is a modern collection of attractive rooms linked together by paved paths and over-water walkways . One of the many tributaries of the Gin Oya runs through the resort , separated from the ocean by a strip of golden sand . Most guestrooms are housed in three main buildings , with private water-facing balconies and beautiful carpentry throughout . The textured wooden floors , shuttered windows , and smooth wooden lamps , tables , and bed frames add a touch of rusticity . Extra privacy can be found in the water chalets built on stilts above the river . Each has a large terrace and outdoor bathtub , and is accessible via a long wooden bridge , establishing the feel of a private island . A vast swimming pool sits at the centre of the resort looking out towards the sea , and ‘ floating ’ sun lounger decks , linked to the poolside by wooden stepping stones , are available for relaxation in the day . As the sun begins to set , enjoy a drink in the atmospherically lit , canopied outside bar , before heading into the open-sided restaurant to enjoy a traditional dinner . The chairs , tables , and towering double doors have been designed in the same style as the bedframes and shutters of the bedrooms : with refinement and authenticity in mind . Relax in the Suriya spa with a massage before navigating the resort ’ s 11 acres of windings pathways , ultra-fine sand , and forested land .

ANANTAYA RESORT & SPA Chilaw
ON THE WEST COAST OF SRI LANKA , the Anantaya Resort and Spa is bordered by the Bangadeniya Lagoon on one side , and the crystal clear blue waters of the Indian Ocean on the other . A grassy stretch , lined with palms and loungers , creates a pretty pathway between the hotel buildings and the beach . The main building sleekly blends the dark wood of traditional Sri Lankan design with the striking modernity of abundant glass . Light , open rooms are decorated with warm , neutral colours , while wooden furnishings and screens add character . Glass walls and large balconies encourage appreciation of the lagoon and sea views . The stylish feel is perhaps most apparent in the cabana-esque spa buildings , which extend across the lagoon waters on stilts and offer Ayurvedic , aromatherapy , and herbal treatments , as well as yoga and meditation classes . Asian design and flavours dominate in the enchanting main bar and fine-dining restaurant . The large open windows in the restaurant look out across the sea , and let in a delicate sea breeze , creating the perfect setting in which to enjoy the international cuisine . The large swimming pool , along with bike rentals , a gym , beach and water sports , and an exclusive shopping arcade , offer more than enough activity to keep guests entertained and indulging . Otherwise , walk into the quaint village of Chilaw to see traditional Sri Lankan life unfold .
