A contemporary style property with the design reflecting the heritage of the area, The Fortress is set on a large plot right on the beachfront near Koggalla lake, 30 minutes south of Galle. This is conveniently located near the airstrip which offers seaplane flights to Colombo, the tea hills and the cultural triangle. There are many different styles of rooms, some overlooking the Indian Ocean and large enough to accommodate a family of 4, with flat screen tvs and surround sound Bose systems. The huge pool overlooks the ocean and although the waves prohibit swimming in the sea, it is a real treat to go for a swim and look out at the turquoise water and the traditional stilt fishermen. Enjoy dining in one of the many restaurants, whether you fancy pizza, fine Sri Lankan curries or the delicious seafood buffet. The Ayurvedic spa offers some wonderful treatments to rejuvenate the mind, body and spirit to enhance your stay.
