Amanwella
Tangalle, Hambantota, Sri Lanka · Virtuoso · 2026 benefits
Amanwella is situated amidst a mature coconut grove fronting a crescent shaped beach close to the village of Tangalle in southern Sri Lanka. The resort derives its name by combining the words, aman, or “peace” in Sanskrit, and wella, the Sinhalese name for beach. All 28 suites of this beachfront resort feature their own private swimming pool and terrace.All suites are identical in layout and design and fall into two categories based on their location and views. The suites and ocean suites are contemporary in design yet blending local material and styles like the distinctive terracotta roof tiles and hand-hewn stone walls. The suites open on both sides letting in cooling sea breezes.Suites,…
Amanwella reigns above a tranquil beach between two rocky headlands. Serene and stylish, this is a tropical paradise for the ages – be as active or as lazy as you wish. While you have every opportunity to commune with giant turtles, snorkel, and visit protected elephant herds in nearby national parks, remember to take time to curl up in your ocean-view suite with its floor-to-ceiling windows, plunge pool, timber sliding doors, and spacious terrace with double sun lounger; everything was designed with your utmost pleasure in mind. Do indulge in a spa bath, while sipping fresh king-coconut juice or Champagne.
