Discerning travellers discover such affordable luxury at Anantaya Passikudah Resort & Spa on Sri Lanka’s sun-soaked east coast.

Just some of these include: mandatory temperature screening on entry with a temporary ban on walk-in visitors; advanced deep-cleaning of rooms, public areas, and staff areas; hand sanitiser provided in rooms and throughout the resort; seating arrangements to facilitate social distancing; new regulations regarding the preparation and serving of food; and keeping the spa and gym non-operation for the time being.
