Radisson
Collection Resort, Galle becomes Radisson Hotel Group’s fourth hotel
in Sri Lanka and its second in Galle, which is nestled on the country’s
stunning south coast. It also marks this luxury lifestyle brand’s inaugural
hotel in the Southeast Asia & Pacific (SEAP) region.
A
coastal luxury lifestyle retreat in Galle
The
city of Galle is an exquisite setting for this high-end, highly experiential
Radisson Collection brand. Long stretches of soft sand such as Unawatuna Beach
set the scene for endless days of serenity and exhilarating water sports, while
the old city is centered around the 17th Century Galle Fort, a UNESCO World
Heritage site. Curious explorers can also discover the local wildlife with
visits to the sea turtle hatchery or safaris in the lush forests or immerse
themselves in Sri Lankan culture amid ancient temples and colonial
architecture.
Xavier
Masson, General Manager, Radisson Collection Resort, Galle, said: “It gives me
immense pleasure to welcome guests to Galle, one of the world’s most evocative
destinations. At Radisson Collection Resort, Galle, we take pride in offering
exceptional products and services that cater to every traveler’s desires. From
our luxurious suites to our world-class beach club experience, we create an
atmosphere of sophistication and relaxation. Guests can indulge in unparalleled
dining experiences at our exquisite restaurants, rejuvenate in our
state-of-the-art wellness facilities, or let their children enjoy the fully
equipped Kids Club with 24-hour nanny services. Whether exploring the city’s
rich history, exquisite architecture, and diverse wildlife, or simply unwinding
with a beachfront vacation, we ensure every moment is memorable, setting the
perfect stage for every occasion.”
Extraordinary
living with unmatched views
Nestled
directly on the beach near Unawatuna, Radisson Collection Resort, Galle is a
luxurious seafront sanctuary. 70 guest rooms and 36 suites are all adorned with
bright, contemporary interiors, complete connectivity and breathtaking views of
the Indian Ocean through panoramic windows. For truly indulgent stays and
special occasions, the spectacular 1,200-square meter Grand Penthouse features
five bedrooms, a spiral staircase, and an infinity pool. Guests can spend
memorable days relaxing at the beachfront pool while children will be inspired
and entertained at the kids’ club, with a dedicated soft play zone including
interactive features for imaginative play.
Taboo
Beach Club is a haven of upbeat fun and entertainment throughout the day,
with stylish sun lounges, daybeds with bottle service, and a stunning pool
overlooking the ocean, it’s set to become a local favorite, while also serving
as a vibrant retreat for in-house guests.
A
new era of dining in Galle: Must-Visit Culinary Experiences
The
hotel introduces a vibrant social scene poised to become the city’s most
sought-after dining destination.
At Catch
Restaurant, guests can enjoy an immersive seafood dining experience where they
personalize their meals by selecting fresh seafood, the cooking method, and
their preferred flavor profile. The lively Catch Lounge transitions
from a relaxed morning coffee and afternoon tea spot into an exclusive evening
destination, featuring live DJ sets, captivating entertainment, and expertly
crafted cocktails by skilled mixologists. Ozen entices diners with a bold and
flavorful Asian-Japanese fusion menu designed to impress even the most
discerning palates. Meanwhile, Namikaze offers an à la carte breakfast, lunch,
and dinner in an inviting setting with both indoor seating and a picturesque
poolside option, making it the perfect spot for any time of day.
