The Fortress

Set beside beautiful beaches on the golden southern coast of Sri Lanka, just minutes from the fascinating historical city of Galle, this magnificent new luxury resort is designed akin to an ancient Dutch fort.

Approx. a 35 minute seaplane transfer or a four hour scenic drive from Colombo Airport.

As a member of the prestigious ‘Small Luxury Hotels of the World’ group, guests can be assured of a wonderful degree of chic, contemporary luxury at The Fortress. Each of the 49 fabulous guestrooms feature super king-size beds, plasma TVs and open plan bathrooms, with polished dark timber floors and high ceilings creating uncluttered, airy living paces. Guests in the Ocean Rooms can enjoy magnificent views from their jacuzzi bath, while those staying in the split-level Ocean Lofts or two-bedroom Fortress Residences have the pleasure of private plunge pools.

The sensuous Lime spa showcases a wide range of Ayurvedic treatments and therapies, with a yoga pavilion, gym, PADI certified diving and a free-form swimming pool offering guests a choice of recreations. A Little Adventurers Club ensures that younger guests enjoy their time at The Fortress just as much as their discerning parents. Spend a day in the serene surroundings of the Yala National Park or the Sinharaja Rainforest before deciding between the European/Sri Lankan fusion cuisine at Pepper and the delicious wood oven pizzas at Heat, perhaps stopping by the Sea Lounge for a nightcap to toast the end of another perfect Sri Lankan evening.
