 Anantara Peace Haven Tangalle Resort 

Discover, pause, recharge

Sri Lankan-inspired design, Anantara’s renowned experience-focused luxury and a breathtaking setting await at this award-winning resort.

The Anantara Peace Haven Tangalle Resort brings Anantara’s chic design, authentic experiences and Thai-inspired hospitality to the shores of Sri Lanka. The resort is scattered throughout 21 acres of tropical gardens and is fronted by a secluded beach and beautiful rocky outcrop. Whether you are looking for cultural or nature excursions or the chance to explore the local region at leisure you'll be well catered for here. And for those days you want to get away from it all the tranquil Anantara Spa offers both Ayurvedic and holistic treatments, and there are many out-of-the-way spots where you can relax. You can even walk to a nearby small beach where there are simple beach restaurants.

Why we love Anantara Peace Haven Tangalle Resort

  • It’s set beside a tucked-away beach in what was once a coconut plantation and is now a 21-acre garden full of native plants

  • The award-winning spa has a fabulous list of treatments and wellness rituals, including authentic Ayurvedic therapies 

  • There’s an imaginative culinary scene that offers everything from Sri Lankan-style teppanyaki to private lunch in a paddy field

  • It’s a luxurious base from which to explore Sri Lanka’s south coast, from Galle in the west to Yala National Park in the east

Rooms

The ambience of the accommodation here reflects the rest of the resort – indigenous Sri Lankan design and locally sourced furnishings and artworks are used throughout the 152 rooms and villas. Each Premier and Deluxe Room features a terrace or balcony which overlooks the gardens or, for a supplement, the beach and ocean. For true indulgence there is a selection of highly recommended villas, each of which has a private terrace with a plunge pool; you can choose between garden or ocean views or a beachside setting.

All of the pool villas are perfect boltholes for couples or a small family, but we think those with an ocean view are the ones to choose.

These spacious rooms are located close to the beach.

Just stepping into the spa, where wooden walkways are lined with pools of water lilies, is enough to induce a feeling of calm. At this cliffside retreat, the focus is on therapies that combine ancient wisdom with modern knowledge, from Ayurvedic massages to the signature two-hour tea-themed Ceylon Retreat.

Enjoy complimentary yoga and meditation sessions by the sea, in the spa’s yoga pavilion or in your villa.

The large and airy fitness centre is open 24 hours a day and is fully equipped with cardio machines, treadmills and free weights. If you prefer to be outdoors, there are tennis and badminton courts, or free bicycles to explore the local area.

With the help of the skilled instructors at Anantara Surf Centre by Tropicsurf, guests can learn to surf, find the perfect waves or head out on a stand-up paddleboard.

The resort has an organic paddy field, planted with indigenous rice varieties and tended using traditional methods. A project in partnership with the IUCN helps protect and conserve turtle nests on the resort beach. The in-house reverse osmosis plant produces 2,000 litres of clean water per day, which is put in glass bottles for drinking. Compost from the resort’s zero-waste garden is shared with local farmers, who supply fresh produce for the hotel in return.

Families will appreciate the flexible accommodation options, the relaxed dining options and the long list of child-friendly things to do.

The Joli Kids’ and Teens’ Club, open every day from 9am to 6pm, provides supervised activities for all ages. There’s a shaded playground, quiet areas for naps and an indoor room for arts and crafts.

Minimum stay: 5 nights 23 Dec-07 Jan.
