 Habarana Village by Cinnamon 

Savour the rustic charm

Designed to look like a village at one with nature, this low-key retreat is close to the beautiful Habarana Lake.

Featuring views out over Habarana Lake and modelled on a traditional Sri Lankan village with small chalets dotted through the lush landscape, Habarana Village is adjacent to Cinnamon Lodge and is a paradise for nature lovers. Like its neighbour, the resort gives you the opportunity to experience the beauty, wildlife and tranquillity of the region once you've returned from exploring the incredible sights of central Sri Lanka. There’s a delightful restaurant but, for a real treat, you can enjoy dinner in the beautiful treehouse private dining venue, or perhaps beside the lake.

Why we love Habarana Village by Cinnamon

  • It has a superb setting on the edge of a lake, with acres of wooded grounds that’s a haven for birdlife

  • The Cultural Triangle’s main sights are within easy driving distance, with the elephants of Minneriya almost on the doorstep

  • After a day of sightseeing or nature-watching, you can retreat to the award-winning spa for a soothing Balinese massage

  • The private dining experiences includes romantic dinners in a lakeside treehouse or breakfast by the water

Rooms

The 108 rooms and suites are simple in style and décor. The Superior Rooms are a popular choice and the majority of rooms are located in clusters making them a great choice for families and groups. If you're seeking a little extra space you should opt for a spacious Deluxe Room which features a four-poster bed and a seating area, or the beautiful and self-contained Kingfisher Lodge which is located just steps from the lake’s shore.

While the Superior Rooms have plenty of charm, the Deluxe Rooms give you that much more space inside and out.

Most of the Superior Rooms are arranged in clusters throughout the resort’s grounds with Sri Lankan-village inspired décor.
