Modern pavilion for luxury seaside stays

CINNAMON BEY Beruwala
ON A SWEEP OF GOLDEN SAND to the south of Beruwala , Cinnamon Bey ’ s grounds are bordered by a beach to the south and a tranquil lagoon to the north . The structure itself is an oversized , contemporary pavilion , offering open-air living spaces overlooking well-kept gardens . Having assumed the position of two older hotels , the scale is magnificent , giving an impression of space and exclusivity . Hotel buildings take a considered arrangement to maximise sea views , which are available in every room , the restaurants and from the large outdoor swimming pools . A second pool occupies a corner overlooked by the wing that holds the deluxe rooms . There are 200 rooms and suites at Cinnamon Bey , and it is here that you can most prominently see how Turkish influences have been incorporated into the hotel ’ s interior design . Steeped in eccentric colours and geometric shapes , each manages the fine balance between youthful vibrancy and first-class luxury . Arabic influences also feed the menu of Mezz ², which serves a range of mezza and grills from private tented areas . Other unique dining experiences include homemade pizzas at 800 Degrees , sushi at Raw and and at Fire , with its show-kitchens and wood-fired stone deck oven . There are eight restaurants and two bars to choose from , while desserts can be had at the Ice Cream Emporium . Other facilities include a sports complex and the Azmaara Spa , where a range of massages , body scrubs and beauty treatments can aid relaxation and promote total wellbeing .
