Minor Hotels will debut the Anantara Kalutara Resort on Sri Lanka’s southwest coast this October, featuring an extensive two-storey spa.

Designed by the late Sri Lankan architect Geoffrey Bawa, Anantara Kalutara is surrounded by tropical gardens and coconut palms, and features a simplistic elegance. The resort is set between the Indian Ocean and Kalu River, and boasts coastal, river and lagoon frontage.

The 141 bedrooms, suites and pool villas will fuse luxury with evocative Sri Lankan accents, and include private balconies and terraces. One- and two-bedroom villas will be enclosed by a garden terrace and feature private pools.

The Anantara Spa will feature holistic ayurvedic therapies and western spa therapies, and will include two yoga and meditation pavilions. Surrounded by a lotus pond, the spa will boast 11 treatment rooms, including four for couples and one dedicated to ayurvedic therapies.

Spa treatments for children have been developed, such as chocolate oil massage or hair braiding, and special ‘mum & me’ and ‘dad & me’ packages are available.

The resort’s gym is set with a river view, and personal trainers are available. It will also include an ocean-view pool, lagoon-side pool with jacuzzi jets and children’s section, three restaurants and a library dedicated to Geoffrey Bawa.
