Hidden on a rocky outcrop along a secluded stretch of Sri Lanka's southernmost coastline, Anantara Peace Haven Tangalle Resort is set amidst a 42 acre coconut plantation and golden crescent beach, with glorious Indian Ocean views. Escape to this naturally exclusive hideaway for exotic beach life in a tranquil world of your own, or live out your explorer dreams, with easy access to iconic cultural sites and spectacular national parks, as well as the thrill of turtle and whale watching trips. Practice holistic exercises on the shore and explore the local area by bicycle or tuk-tuk. Relax in paradise at our tropical pool, a refreshing cocktail in hand. Little ones can play happily at the children's and teens' club, leaving you free to indulge in sensual spa pampering and specialist treatments at the Ayurvedic and reflexology centres. Savour the charms and flavours of island life, partaking in the colonial tradition of high tea and creating authentic Sri Lankan cuisine in a master chef cooking class. For refined international tastes, delight in gourmet Italian dining on an ocean facing cliff top, Sri Lankan inspired teppanyaki beside the beach, private wine cellar degustation dinners and tailored Dining by Design occasions. Anantara Peace Haven Tangalle Resort has been recognised in Condé Nast Traveler US’s prestigious 2017 Hot List as one of the best new hotels in the world, as well as one of the hottest new openings in Sri Lanka.
