Saman
Villas, Bentota
A deluxe resort for the demanding guests who are looking
for
an atmosphere of calm and tranquility
Location: 60 km south of Colombo
and 100 km south of the airport. Saman Villas is magnificently
perched on a rocky headland dividing two long seemingly
endless, surf-swept unspoilt beaches of golden sand, backed
by dense green coconut plantations, in the quiet-sleepy
fishing village of Aturuwella in Bentota.
The atmosphere is one of tranquility, disturbed only by
the sound of sea gulls and the waves breaking on the rocks
below. The views, from anywhere in the hotel, are unbelievably
magnificent.

furnished, air-conditioned Suites designed in traditional
Sri Lankan style and carefully positioned to give spectacular
views of the shoreline and sea. They include an open-air
