Heritance Ahungalla, one of the legendary Geoffrey Bawa's architectural fantasies, is now a popular place for seminars and conferences.
With the expansion of MICE Tourism in Sri Lanka, Heritance Ahungalla became the hub of work plus leisure destination in South coast.
The hotel offers two attractively developed conference packages namely ‘Ahungalle Package’ and ‘Heritance Package’.
‘Ahungalle Package’ includes mid morning refreshments, lunch, mid afternoon refreshments and equipment such as PA system, screen, magi board, flip chart board, over head projector and other facilities.
‘Heritance Package’ gives more luxury and offers cold and hot beverages, perking ups, giveaways and extra equipment, apart from the usual package.
The name ‘Heritance’ came from the combining ‘heritage’ with 'inheritance', which replaced the old name Triton few years ago.
