Ruwala Resort

On Sri Lanka’s Kalpitiya coast in the Thalawila/Kandakuli area, just minutes from the beach. Ruwala Resort sits near Ruwala Nature & Adventure Park and is close to St. Anne’s Shrine, Alankuda Beach, Kalpitiya Beach and the Dutch Fort of Kalpitiya.

Just six air-conditioned rooms feel like private beach hideaways — many with kitchens and private balconies or patios. Rooms include desks, laptop-compatible safes, cable TV, mini-bars and daily housekeeping. Warm, simple décor sets a relaxed vibe and you can expect sea-breeze mornings.

Take a dip in the outdoor pool and sip at the poolside bar. Rent bicycles to explore the coast, join the on-site diving club, or fire up the barbecue and picnic area. The resort also offers tour/ticket assistance and complimentary Wi‑Fi.

A business center and 24-hour front desk keep things running. Onsite services include dry cleaning/laundry, free valet parking and an optional roundtrip airport shuttle (surcharge).

Dine at the on-site restaurant or grab a coffee and snacks in the café. There’s a bar/lounge and a poolside bar for cocktails, a complimentary continental breakfast each morning, and limited-hours room service.
