Calamansi Cove is a luxury boutique hotel which offers a haven of tranquility amidst the sand, sea and sun. Nestled on the edge of a protected bay making it ideal for safe swimming, it is surrounded by the island’s thriving jungle that cocoons the resort from the hustle and bustle of roads and nearby towns. It is conveniently situated on the south coast, with easy access to the island’s most historic and famous coastal attractions.
The resort is located in Balapitya, a small town just outside the coastal village of Ahungalla, on Sri Lanka’s South West Coast. It takes approximately 90 minutes from Colombo’s International Airport, and 45 minutes to the historic city of Galle making it the ideal hub for your perfect seaside getaway.
We offer an airport transfer service, where you can either head to the airport or on to your next destination to discover more of the island that we call ‘home’
