Set on a wide golden sandy beach an hour away from Colombo, The Blue Water feels as though it is much further from the city. Peppered with alluring palm trees and verdant lawns, the fifteen acre property is spacious and full of surprises. There are pools, ponds, fountains, waterways and of course the Indian Ocean at every turn. The resort was one of last projects of renowned architect Geoffrey Bawa.
Contemporary guest rooms all offer sea views and luxury furnishings and fittings. Cuisine at The Blue Water is a relaxed yet indulgent affair. Five restaurants, cafés and bars serve a range of cuisine: an ample selection from Sri Lankan classics to international dishes.
There are two sizeable swimming pools a fully equipped gym, tennis and squash courts. The spa is a popular retreat. Signature massages take place in traditional, tranquil spa pavilions, with treatments rooted in Ayurvedic traditions.
The Blue Water is also the perfect base to explore other parts of Sri Lanka, including the capital of Colombo for museums, galleries and shopping, and the resort of Bentoto, famed across Sri Lanka for its offering of water sports.
