Hotel will be closed for renovation from 1st May 2010.
Coral Gardens is the underwater grove of the Paradise Isle and the cradle of underwater adventure, and the best location on the Western seaboard of Sri Lanka for scuba diving and snorkeling, not just to explore the reef and its rich species diversity but shipwrecks several centuries old. It is also the ideal exploratory hub for those waiting to explore the inland treasures ranging from rain forests, wildlife parks, boat rides through mangroves, and the rich cultural landscape along the Southern coastline.
Coral Gardens is the pioneer beach hotel of Sri Lanka. Facing the splendid coral reefs of Hikkaduwa with the best beach-front garden within a radius of 20 miles, the hotel is world renown for what it has to offer by way of underwater adventure. A professional team of trainers will test your skill level and help you make the best use of the available facilities for scuba diving and snorkeling. There are 15 diving locations to pick from, including two ancient shipwrecks. And for the absolute amateur, there are glass-bottomed boats that will take you around the reef. Be dazzled by the wonderful sea life in all the colours of the rainbow or by the sun-drenched beach. Sit by the poolside with a fresh fruit drink, or on a bench with a book and let the gentle breeze wrap you in the most ancient of tales. Or take a break from sun, sea and sand and explore the many wonders that lie not too far inland from the hotel.

| SPORTS & LEISURE |
- Underwater sports
Scuba Safari is a facility created for those who revel
in or are curious about underwater adventure. Under the watchful eyes of
professional trainers, guests are tested for their skills in snorkeling and
diving and depending on the skill level taken out to explore the magical
world that lies just a few hundred meters away from the hotel, the Hikkaduwa
Coral Reef, home to the most colourful and wondrous creatures of the sea.
Among the 15 diving locations are two shipwrecks whose histories and no doubt
fascinating tales lie at the bottom of the sea. They provide an opportunity
to dive into a different century. Glass-bottom boats are also available for
the more faint of heart. The undersea world is not denied anyone, the hotel
makes sure of this.
- Herbal Health Centre
A holiday is meant to relax the mind and rejuvenate
the body. We leave nothing to chance. The Ayurvedic Health Centre has a range
of services designed not just to alleviate aches and pains but enhance that
overall feel-good sensation of your body. The physicians will work with you
to come up with a treatment plan that suits your needs and fits your schedule.
Herbal baths, aromatherapy, facial massages, body massages…in fact the entire
gamut of Ayurvedic treatment devoted to keeping every part of your body in
top order and, for those who are keen on looking as healthy as they feel,
to look at the world with a fresh face, so to speak
- Recreation
There are all kinds of water. A huge swimming pool though the
sea is, there will be moments when you prefer calmer waters. The swimming
pool is the ideal place to cool off when the heat becomes a tad unbearable.
Or after you've worked up a sweat playing squash or volleyball. Well, you
could work up another sweat playing water-polo, if that is possible while
in the water. The pool bar will serve you a sandwich a drink or anything
else of those innumerable in-between-meals snacks that are part and parcel
of holidaying.
- Entertainment
Night time is for partying. If that is your preference. You
can let down your hair and kick in with the music at the discotheque. But
dance is not all there is to entertainment. Live entertainment comes in many
forms….you
can listen to a band, watch a magician or a juggler. Every night something
different, something new, guaranteed to enthrall. Sit back with the drink
of your choice and soak it up along with the balmy ambience that is a permanent
resident of the hotel.
- Restaurant
Food is crucial and the staff of Coral Gardens has taken this
to heart. The kitchen prides itself in always providing a wide array of dishes
to satisfy every taste.
A generous spread of international cuisine is well
complemented by exotic Sri Lankan dishes. The “International” element
is accentuated every night with a special “ethnic” corner. Food
goes down better if the ambience is right. The elegantly designed restaurant
is a nice place to sit and dine and also makes a hang-out place to sit
and relax.
The poolside bar on the other hand, will give you a snack and
a drink if you really don't want to get out of your swimsuit and are loathe
to leave the sun and breeze.
