Resplendent Ceylon resorts in Conde Nast Traveller 2018 reader awards
View(s):Two of the Resplendent Ceylon resorts have entered the Conde Nast Traveller 2018 reader awards.
Two Resplendent Ceylon resorts made the cut in the Asia list, Cape Weligama in the top 10 and Wild Coast in the top 20 within a year of opening. This achievement is especially remarkable given the small number of rooms at both resorts and that voting is by past guest, a media release issued by the resorts stated.
The premier global luxury travel magazine, Condé Nast Traveler, has unveiled the winners of its Readers’ Choice Awards, the longest-running and most prestigious recognition of excellence in the travel industry.
Cape Weligama is a resort along Sri Lanka’s palm fringed southern shores, that is 30 minutes east of Galle, its 39 villas and suites inhabit 12 tropical acres atop a singular promontory rising 40 metres above the Indian Ocean.
Wild Coast Tented Lodge sits on a secluded beach on the edge of Yala National Park with 28 vaulted “Cocoon” tents and 8 “Urchin” tents for kids that offer the comfort of a luxury hotel with the excitement of an authentic safari experience.
Together with the iconic Ceylon Tea Trails tea bungalow resort, the trio of Resplendent Ceylon resorts leads the way in attracting luxury travellers to Sri Lanka, the release said.
The 31st annual Awards ranked the best hotels, resorts, cities, islands, airlines, airports, and cruise lines in the world. Nearly half a million readers rated their travel experiences to provide a full snapshot of where and how they travel today.
