Experiences

New adventures. Tropical waters. Streets filled with culture.

At Avani Bentota, each day can be packed to the brim with adventure. While snorkeling, watersports, and river safaris can be exciting, just walking hand in hand with that special someone on miles of golden sand too can be equally exhilarating. Alternatively, get on the streets and discover new places to visit in Bentota or simply laze in one of our pools.
