Trinco Blu by Cinnamon  

On Sri Lanka’s northeast coast in Trincomalee, this retro-chic beach resort sits steps from Uppuveli Beach and a short drive (about 5 km) from the city center. The area is famed for one of the world's largest natural harbours and excellent snorkelling and diving.

Once a 70s resort, it’s been reborn with a retro-chic, nautical vibe—bleached wooden decks, cut cement floors, rattan furniture and denim trimmings with pops of orange against blue-and-white palettes. The property has 79 guestrooms with private balconies and simple in-room comforts like mini‑bars, tea/coffee facilities, LCD TVs and private bathrooms. Expect lively, seaside design and easygoing rooms that match the coastal setting.

Private beach access and an outdoor pool put you straight into sea-breeze mornings. Spa facilities include a massage room and sauna, and there’s a diving club for exploring vibrant marine life. Onsite extras include a picnic and BBQ area, poolside bar, 24-hour front desk, concierge, wedding services, valet parking and airport shuttle (surcharge). Complimentary wireless internet is available across the property.

Conference hall and event spaces plus complimentary Wi‑Fi and 24-hour front desk support meetings and small events. Valet parking and shuttle service can be arranged for delegates.

Two on‑site restaurants serve international cuisine, including Captains Deck, plus a bar/lounge and poolside bar for laid-back drinks. Buffet breakfasts are offered for a fee.
