Amanwella

Contemporary beach serenity.

Located on the south coast of Sri Lanka, Amanwella offers views of the Indian Ocean. The resort’s contemporary minimalist design was built using indigenous materials.

Insider Tip

Enjoy an adventure and wander inland with an Amanwella nature guide to discover hidden villages that come alive at daybreak and dusk as birds, monkeys, and squirrels flit between homes.

Where You’re Staying

Modern suites feature floor-to-ceiling glass doors on both sides. One side opens to a courtyard that contains a private plunge pool, while the other side accesses a large terrace with loungers and views of the gardens, beach, or ocean.

Where to Dine

The restaurant and beach club feature Sri Lankan and Mediterranean cuisine made from locally grown ingredients and freshly caught fish.

Where to Relax

Swim in the resort’s pool overlooking ivory sand. Amanwella Spa’s all-natural products are created using Sri Lankan herbs, plants, and flowers. The Abhyanga massage uses a traditional warm-oil Ayurvedic treatment to eliminate impurities.
