What a gem
This is truly a lovely hotel, with a great pool and beach front. Rooms are spacious and comfortable and grounds are very well maintained. Entrance feels grand and welcome us very warm. Great kids club. Would definitely return if I had the opportunity. Only minus I experienced was the upselling (day trips, spa treatments) during breakfast. While this may work well with some of the clientele, I found this quite annoying.

Whilst most of the hotel is 5 star, there were some niggling problems.
1. The WiFi and internet are terrible. This is 2025 not 1995 !!
2. The cord on the hairdryer was so short you cannot use a mirror when drying your hair.
3. The “adults” pool is not really for adults. It has no lifeguards but children n can use it freely.
Everything else was excellent, especially breakfast.

Fantastic location! Spacious territory with numerous and various wildlife. Two restaurants of fine dining that will meet expectations of even a picky gourmand. Very friendly and truly impeccable service (special words of gratitude to our personal host Bhanuka P.!)
What could be improved. Our beachside villa had a great interior and was really shouting of luxury and comfort. But when you open a minibar fridge (of a pretty big size!) then you see a dull landscape made a few lonely bottles of drinks. That view makes a dramatic contrast with the rest of villa’s filling.
Also, while beach is great the sea seems to be heavy all year around with huge waves rushing to the shore.

Like most other Anantara properties, the one in Tangalle boasts of luxury, amenities and a perfect location.
We were there 2 nights and wish we could have stayed longer. Absolutely pampered at every step, starting at the check-in, orientation, dining, poolside and even the kids play area.
Absolutely loved how the resort is surrounded by nature, not just in terms of greenery and the beach but also in terms of creatures. Will never forget the adorable peacock that came to our room every morning for a snack or all the other creatures that we got to see around. Was also impressed by the tree planting initiative they took on Environment Day.
Special thanks to Suresh & Ugara from F&B service and Kevin from Guest Relations for thier efficient and friendly service, especially Suresh who went out of his way to make sure we had everything we wanted.
The only room for improvement is the buffet menu at Journeys was quite disappointing in terms of variety in local cuisine. Especially on Sunday night, it seemed like some of the the Saturday night's menu was repeated and some dishes were just filled with onions and garlic. Also felt the personal host service was of no use. Menus shared on whatsapp by him were available in the room and he was a not very responsive on call or messages.
Other than that, every single thing was perfect and I really hope we get to come back there again.
