The Resplendent Sri Lanka Journey typically starts with Tea Trails, then Wild Coast and finally Cape Weligama. It could also be done in reverse or if time does not permit the full circuit, pick two resorts perhaps. The minimum recommended stay is 2 nights at each resort, but 3 nights is ideal to unwind fully. Typically, travellers spend longer at Cape Weligama as the final stop before leaving Sri Lanka.
You’ll be picked up by our chauffeur-driven SUV or Van from the airport and driven to Ceylon Tea Trails, where your Resplendent Journey will begin. Settle in comfortably. Then feast on the all-inclusive, scrumptious gourmet meals. Wake up at one of our 5 gorgeous villas to exquisite, misty mornings and chilly weather. You can either join a guided tour of our tea factory, producing globally-famous Dilmah Tea, or simply appreciate the views of the lake, walk in our lush, green tea estates. Perhaps you could also enjoy a spa treatment in your room, go on a kayaking trip, or simply lounge on a sofa and read a book!
The lodge is nestled between the unfenced edge of Yala National Park and untouched coastline. Rest easy in one of our cocoons, jump into your private plunge pool or sit on the patio and enjoy the sea breeze blowing through the tree branches. Relish your fully-inclusive gourmet cuisines, read a book at the bar, or network with other guests during sundowner cocktails! Join our expert team of rangers and listen to their anecdotes on a morning game drive into Yala National Park or Bundala National Park. Enjoy a scrumptious meal at the open-air, tastefully designed restaurant. Then, maybe enjoy a dip in the pool that wraps around the restaurant and bamboo-clad bar, or return to your cocoon and enjoy a dip in our classic bathtub while observing the jungle. In the evening, join for sundowner cocktails, or go on a long walk on the beach; once darkness falls, enjoy the unfiltered view of the sea of stars above while listening to the waves crash against the shore below. Go for a morning hour-long nature walk with a ranger around the property and nearby bush areas; learn about the jungle and its species, their ways and characteristics.
Rest up at a clifftop sea-side villa. You’ll be captivated by the panoramic views of the Indian Ocean. Start your day mindfully and peacefully with a Hatha Yoga class. Next, enjoy our iconic Kumbuk breakfast – an authentic Sri Lankan healthy meal. In the afternoon, a guided bike tour could be the ideal choice! Jump into our iconic moon pool and sip on your complimentary cocktail.
Register for a whale watching tour, a scuba diving session, or surfing lesson. Go for a guided tour of the Galle Fort. Come back and dip in your private pool or infinity pool! And possibly treat yourself to another spa session?
