Sri Lanka, Indian Ocean
Ahungalla
Quite simply, the Heritance Ahungalla is in one of the most beautiful five star hotels in one of the world's most beautiful holiday destinations. 'Perfection' is the word that comes to mind when describing the Heritance Ahungalla Hotel; everything about it is perfect. It's location, its views, its facilities, its ambience. Set in stunning grounds, on the very edge of the beach and a vast expanse of dazzling blue sea, it is utterly beguiling.
The exquisite setting and facilities of the Heritance Ahungalla make it Sri Lanka's dream destination:
This is a five star facility in every single respect. Everything about it is special. Even the view from the lobby is spectacular – looking out over the vast pool, its lights twinkling as the sun dims and crimson fills the sky.
Guests' rooms are superbly appointed. Luxurious fabrics and rich timber fittings give them a stamp of impeccable quality. Furnishings are rich and tasteful.
Comfort is given equal priority – so you'll enjoy a wonderfully well-equipped en suite bathroom (with a rain shower). All rooms benefit from a balcony or terrace and you can upgrade to a Deluxe Ocean view room for a small daily supplement. Additional facilities include satellite TV, telephone, minibar and drinks making facilities.
Half and full board options are available to you. In fact, you can upgrade to full board for just a little extra per person per day.
As you might expect of a hotel of this quality, facilities are top notch throughout. There are two wonderfully large swimming pools as well as a gym and Jacuzzi and then when it's time to start some serious relaxation, take a trip to the fantastic Spa for a treatment or two. You can also enjoy a little gentle sporting activity on the tennis courts, or a civilised game of billiards in the hotel games room. There are three restaurants for you to choose from (and the hotel coffee shop) as well as four bars.
The Heritance Ahungalla Hotel even has its own nightclub. In other words, everything you'll need is right here. You can unpack, unwind, relax and revel in the Sri Lankan lifestyle without ever going further than the beach. There isn't another hotel quite like the Heritance Ahungalla. Looking out over the beach where clear blue sky meets clear blue sea, you'll know that this hotel and this destination are truly special; this could just be your own little slice of heaven on earth.

The Local Area
The Heritance Ahungalla (formally the Triton Hotel) was Sri Lanka's first 5-star beach hotel and in 2005 it was completely refurbished and extended. As a result this famous hotel has been restored to its former days of glory with tasteful furnishings, luxurious fabrics and rich timber fittings. Guest rooms now assume a new standard of elegance and comfort with lavish en suite bathrooms.

Five star definitely, but watch out for those walkway tiles, they are very slippery, even when dry.
After passing through the very ostentatious front gates we were welcomed to this magnificent entry with a view over the pool to the ocean beyond! The pool beckoned us for immediate exploration. We were to find that not only was there the main pool, but another one directly behind our room with access via our patio. It was a scary walk to our rooms though, as the tiles, even when not wet, were very slippery! A lovely room with plenty of space and a decent bathroom. Not sure why they thought ceramic bottles were a good idea for the complimentary lotions etc in the bathroom. Surely, it would be safer, and more easily refilled if they had the type attached to the walls if they don't want to use mini product in plastic bottles. Plenty of powerpoints and lights, and beds were a decent quality. As our group had an early departure, the management arranged for an early breakfast in the buffet and we were surprised to find it fully stocked well before usual opening time. Thank you for that! The food at the buffet was ok for dinner, with some nice fresh salads available, but the worker who was on duty to "carve" the leg of roast pork, could do with some carving training, and not hack bits of meat off.

Wonderful family holiday
My family and friends recently spent two nights at the Heritance Ahungalle and had a wonderful time filled with lasting memories.
From the time we arrived, the staff made us feel welcome. The buffet had a great variety of food, with both Western and Sri Lankan and other Asian dishes, so there was always something different to try out at every meal. We were in a package with full board, i.e all meals included during our stay. We also enjoyed spending time by the two great pools overlooking the beach and ocean. It was a beautiful place to relax and listen to the ocean specially as we arrived on a week day. Weekends do get very busy with locals however weekdays do have a very quiet and relaxing atmosphere.
What really stood out the most was the way the Heritance Ahungalle staff looked after us and met all of our needs. We were also celebrating a special anniversary,and they were always happy to help with any requests, including meal requirements. Their friendliness and willingness to assist really made a difference to us and felt like being at home.
A special thank you to Mr. Manoj, Ms. Poornima and Mr. Rasika from the Resident Management Team, as well as Mahesh, and the restaurant team as well as the housekeeping staff. Thank you for your kindness and for making us feel so well looked after throughout our stay.
We had a wonderful time together as a family and left with some very special memories. We look forward to visiting Heritance Ahungalle again in not so distant future. Thanks
