What’s on the Menu
Dining at the Italian restaurant, Il Mare, promises an exceptional night out. Perched on a cliff, it offers the perfect vantage point to witness the stunning sunset. However, the food and wine menu are equally as impressive as the breathtaking view. The chef, a local celebrity, earns this status rightfully, especially when you savor his alluring Italian desserts and exotic flambéed sweets. At Verala, the theatrical chefs showcase teppanyaki-style cooking, blending Japanese and Sri Lankan influences to create delightful meat and seafood dishes, enhanced with organic vegetables from the resort's own garden. Begin your day at Journeys with a breakfast buffet and return throughout the day for international comfort food. Enjoy a tasty snack or summery cocktail at the Poolside Bar, or slow down with a charming Ceylon high tea at the colonial Lobby Lounge.
We love
The many exceptional excursions. Observe turtles nesting on a nearby beach between June and September. Watch collosal sperm whales between December and April. Or visit a tea plantation, picturesque rice patty fields, holy temples or one of the many national parks with an abundance of local wildlife.
The basquet filled with refreshing water, fresh fruit and sun lotion upon entering the beach or pool.
Good to know
The sea water can be quite rough at times, presenting a spectacular sight but not always conducive to swimming.
The resort maintains a no nudity policy. Kindly enter the wellness center wearing swim attire and ensure to wrap a towel around your body in the steam rooms.

Passport and Visa
When planning a trip to Sri Lanka, it's crucial to ensure that your passport remains valid for at least six months beyond your return date. Children, irrespective of age, must also have their own passport or identity card. Additionally, obtaining a visa is necessary for your stay, which can be conveniently done online at http://www.eta.gov.lk/slvisa. The cost of a visa for a 30-day, double-entry stay is around $50 USD, while children under 12 receive theirs free of charge. After filling out your details on the visa application link and making the necessary payment, you'll promptly receive confirmation of your application. Note that this confirmation doesn't serve as your visa; you'll receive that later. If you don't receive the email confirmation, check your spam folder or contact the sender. Upon arrival in Sri Lanka, you'll be required to fill out an 'arrival' card, available at the immigration desk. For stays exceeding 30 days, it's advisable to contact the Sri Lankan Embassy to apply for an extended visa. Ensure you have all necessary travel documents in order, and if you're not a Dutch national or resident, it's essential to consult the relevant embassy or consulate for specific travel requirements.
Health Information for Travellers
Vaccinations for Sri Lanka are not mandatory, but it's advisable to get vaccinated against DTP and Hepatitis A and B. For further guidance, please consult your GP or visit a health travel clinic at least six weeks prior to your departure.

Mijn vrienden en ik brachten een week door in het prachtige Anantara. In al onze jaren van wereldreizen hebben we nog nooit zulke geweldige oprechte, vriendelijke en zorgzame mensen meegemaakt als Sri Lankanen. We kwamen aan bij het traditionele welkom dat echt heel speciaal was. We hadden een snel check-in proces van het aardige receptieteam en werden voorgesteld aan onze gastheer Prashan, deze meneer bleek de ster van ons verblijf te zijn! Prashan was beschikbaar om ons te ondersteunen via What's App (of persoonlijk) voor alles wat we nodig hadden. Van het regelen van vervoer met buggy's, het vervangen van sleutels toen we onszelf buitensloten, een boeket voor een vriend tot het bezorgen van onze favoriete heerlijke Sri Lankaanse snoepjes! Prashan heeft echt geholpen om ons verblijf echt speciaal te maken - we waren allemaal erg blij met hem! De eet- en drinkgelegenheden in het hotel zijn echt heel goed: het uitgebreide ontbijtbuffet bij Journeys, lunch bij het zwembad, cocktails bij zonsondergang en het diner bij Il Mare allemaal even uitstekend met fantastische service van het hele team! We willen het hele team van Peace Haven bedanken voor de zorg en aandacht voor detail, het was een geweldige ervaring... zo erg dat we al hebben geboekt om in augustus terug te keren! Jammer om dit paradijs te moeten verlaten, maar we zullen de dagen aftellen om terug te keren naar Sri Lanka en Peace Haven. Aarzel niet om hier te komen, Sri Lanka heeft meer dan ooit steun nodig en je zult echt genieten van dit prachtige land en het paradijs van Anantara Peace Haven!

Prettiest resort in Sri Lanka. The view from the Italian restaurant is unlike anything I've seen before . The service is excellent. We had a personal butler, I don't quite remember his name but he made sure that we were taken care of. The food however was a let down. It's not 5 star quality. The dinner buffet had alot of variety but lacked taste. The a- la carte option would be much better so choose that if possible while booking. Morning breakfast was pretty good with alot of Srilankan dishes, live counters. Over all, an amazing stay. I'm definitely returning.
