Dining

With mouthwatering a la carte options covering everything from juicy burgers and plates of pasta to spicy seafood, Thaala Bentota’s main and specialty restaurants will spoil you for choice. To quench the thirst, simply settle back and savour refreshingly cool juices and your favourite beers, wines, spirits or cocktails in the resort’s bars.

Alternatively, make the most of your private patio by treating yourselves to room service at all hours of the day or night. 

Breeze

AVANI Bentota’s main restaurant chefs eagerly tempt their guests with the very best Sri Lanka has to offer – from fresh-from-the-ocean lobster and prawns to fragrant noodle and rice dishes.

With a different buffet every morning and international favourites available all day, every day, the dining delights here are simply endless.

Frangipani

At the heart of the AVANI Bentota Resort & Spa, a classic, elegant and informal setting for lunch or dinner offers indoor and outdoor seating. Dine on true international classics or try the delicious local cuisine and chose from a selection of quality wines.

Speciality Dining

What could be more romantic than sharing an intimate tete a tete on a serene corner of one of Sri Lanka’s most secluded golden beaches? With slow-smoked salmon, caviar and lobster served up under the stars with a side order of gently lapping waves, this is one evening you’ll remember long after your flight home.

Chatters Bar

Make new friends while you sharpen your pool skills in the resort’s residents’ bar. Alternatively, feel free to unwind over a G&T or a decadent Pina Colada as the kids play outside in the sun. A meticulously appointed connoisseurs’ area offering a world-class collection of superb cigars and limited-edition wines and spirits is yet another reason why AVANI Bentota is so unique. Your first hint of the exquisite contents of the lounge’s humidors and cellars is sure to tell you all you need to know.

Recreation

Whether it’s watching boats sailing across the Indian Ocean or trying a wide range of watersports, there is always something rewarding to do at Thaala Bentota Resort. Explore our range of sports and entertainment facilities designed to make your stay a memorable and rewarding experience.

Activities

Gym

The state of the art gym here is equipped with everything you need to shape up. From resistance training to cardiovascular workout machines and lighter exercise equipment, AVANI Bentota has everything you need to make up for each evening’s indulgent dinners.

Water Sports

Waterskiing, waterboarding and windsurfing are just a few of the many activities the resort’s trained instructors will be happy to teach you in Bentota’s crystal-clear coastal seas. Should you ever yearn to see what lies beneath the surf, you can also find out how to spot stingrays and other exotic fish by learning to scuba dive or snorkel.

Sports And Games

In addition to absorbing games of chess and local favourite tabletop game, Carom, the many leisure options on offer at the resort includes beach volleyball.

Music And Events

AVANI Bentota’s Sri Lankan cultural shows are overflowing with exotic music, colourful costumes and bewitching performances that will give you a new perspective on the country and its people’s down-to-earth character. With different musical experiences spanning soulful sax to jazzy guitar, enchanting flutes and traditional local melodies each evening, your every night here is sure to be a pleasure.

Excursions

Taking advantage of the seafront location adventurous travellers set sail on spectacular ocean journeys to extraordinary nearby attractions such as the turtle hatchery and local mangroves.

Culturally speaking, the many unique experiences in store include the nearby Dutch fortification at Galle, Ambalangoda Mask Village and the Kande Vihara and Pahuru Kande temples.

To experience some truly local flavour, join one of the main traditional occupations and wake up early to ‘tap the toddy.’ Toddy is a refreshing drink straight from the flower of coconut and palm trees. If left to ferment it produces a strong and pleasant alcoholic drink similar in taste to cider. The later in the day the Toddy is collected, the stronger it gets. Watch the tappers transfer from tree to tree on a network of tightropes with enviable agility and energy as they collect and tap the ‘jungle juice.’

Spa

Restore and take your sense of inner calm to the next level ancient with AVANI Spa’s centuries-old Ayurvedic body rituals and personal pamperings. Simply exhale away lingering stresses each time you inhale the unique aroma of all-natural aromatic candles and sensuous oils here.
