Turyaa Kalutara

On Sri Lanka’s sun-soaked west coast in Wadduwa — a beach hotel 37 km south of Colombo and about 77 km from Bandaranaike International Airport. Steps from Pothupitiya Beach and a short drive to Kalutara Beach and Richmond Castle, this family-friendly beach address puts sand and surf within easy reach.

Rooms are bright and air-conditioned with minibars, satellite/LCD TVs, safes and coffee/tea makers. Many rooms open to balconies or terraces with sea or landscaped-garden views. Expect en suite bathrooms with bathtubs and a mix of family rooms with living areas. The grounds include landscaped gardens and easy beach access for a relaxed, modern coastal vibe.

Soak in two outdoor pools (plus a children’s pool), unwind at the full-service spa, or steam out stress in the sauna and fitness center. Play tennis or volleyball, hit the arcade, and sip cocktails at pool bars and lounges. All-inclusive rates are available for guests who want meals and drinks bundled in. Wake up to sea-breeze mornings and long days of sun, sand and simple luxury.

Two meeting rooms and event spaces support small conferences. Complimentary wireless internet keeps you connected. Additional services include a 24-hour front desk, dry cleaning, and airport shuttle (surcharge); free valet/self parking is available onsite.

On-site dining ranges from a Sri Lankan restaurant serving local flavors to a specialty Italian eatery, plus a poolside grill and coffee shop for snacks. There are multiple bars and pool bars for sunset drinks, and buffet breakfast is served daily (hours apply). Svar is one of the hotel’s dining options for guests seeking variety.
