Anantara Peace Haven Tangalle Resort
Sri Lanka
Anantara Peace Haven Tangalle Resort is a hotel in Tangalle, on Sri Lanka’s southern coast, with the official resort set-out placing it at Goyambokka Estate overlooking the Indian Ocean. The property is presented as a low-rise coastal retreat with 152 rooms and pool villas, combining a secluded seaside location with access to the island’s wildlife and heritage. Its scale and setting distinguish it from an urban hotel, with ocean views and a strong resort character. Accommodation is offered in rooms and villas that use Sri Lankan design cues alongside contemporary comforts, with options facing the garden, beach or Indian Ocean. The Premier Beach Access Room is 56 square metres and located on the ground floor, with direct beach access, a private terrace, partial ocean views, a Nespresso machine and a separate tub and rain shower. That layout keeps the shoreline experience central while still giving the room practical indoor space. Dining includes Journeys for international breakfast and dinner, Il Mare for Italian cuisine, and Verala for Asian dinners, alongside Harvest Table by Anantara for Sri Lankan private dining. The resort also lists Lobby Lounge, Poolside Bar, El Vino, In-Room Dining, Designer Dining and Spice Spoons, with several venues described as enjoying oceanfront or clifftop settings. Together these options create a choice between formal meals, lighter refreshments and more private experiences. Leisure facilities include a 25-metre swimming pool with a children’s section, a gym, tennis and badminton courts, a Joli Kids’ and Teens’ Club, surf and stand-up paddleboarding sessions with Tropicsurf, and yoga. The spa offers four single treatment rooms, four couples’ rooms, Ayurvedic treatment rooms, a facial treatment room, a beauty salon, a yoga pavilion and a wellness relaxation area. A Peace Haven Nature Walk also passes the horticultural garden, mangroves, coastal ecosystem, turtle conservation efforts and organic rice field.
