What is it Really like?
Hideaway in paradise, between a tropical palm fringed beach and the Kalu Ganga River. Cruise the ocean waves aboard a traditional boat or kayak along the river. Avani Kalutara Resort blends authentic Sri Lankan culture and old colonial charm with contemporary design flair and all the ingredients that really matter for an escape of laid back relaxation. The resort’s distinctive design, with breezy open corridors, lush lawns and frangipani gardens, creates a truly laid back ambience. A choice of 99 Superior Rooms and 6 Junior Suites feature private balconies or patios overlooking the rolling Indian Ocean, peacefully meandering river or vibrant tropical gardens.
Where is it?
Avani Kalutara Resort is just ten minutes away from the historical town of Kalutara on the southern coast of Sri Lanka. At the tip of the Kalu Ganga River mouth, which twists almost 100 miles from Sri Pada – the sacred mountain believed to be the footprint of the Buddha, our resort is situated directly at the point where the river water pours into the vast Indian Ocean.
