SL Hotels - Amaya Lake


The raban drum heralds your arrival. Four older women, flashing beautiful Sri Lankan smiles,
encircle a large barrel drum where they pound out a hearty rhythm. Flowing white vesak lanterns
hang from the high ceilings of the open air lobby. Meander down a forested path to discover your villa,
or continue to the Warichchi Village and begin a weeklong journey in the Ayurvedic Spa.
