Since opening its doors in 2016, the resort has offered guests a rare blend of achitectural brilliance, cultural immersion, and adventurous discovery, becoming a hallmark of hospitality on Sri Lanka’s southern coastline.

Designed by the late Geoffrey Bawa, Sri Lanka's most celebrated architect and pioneer of tropical modernism, Anantara Kalutara is a living testament to design that transcends time. Built on the confluence of the Indian Ocean and the serene Kalu Ganga River, the resort embodies Bawa's vision of harmony between built space and the surrounding natural world. With open courtyards, breezy corridors, and lush tropical landscaping, the property continues to inspire admiration as one of Bawa’ final creations, bridging Sri Lanka's architectural heritage with the standards of Anantara Hotels globally.
