Fox Resorts celebrates dual recognition for People Excellence and Tourism Leadership in Sri Lanka

Business

Rooted in people, place and purpose, ‘Fox Resorts’, a part of the Capital Maharaja Group, continues to redefine destination-led hospitality in Sri Lanka. This philosophy has now been affirmed with two prestigious accolades, recognising both its commitment to human capital and its distinctive presence in the country’s northern tourism landscape.

The Group has been awarded the ‘Great HR Award 2025’, Certificate of Excellence in the Hospitality, Tourism and Leisure Sector, while Fox Jaffna by Fox Resorts has been recognised as the Best Accommodation Provider at the Northern Province Tourism Awards 2025.

These recognitions affirm Fox Resorts’ belief that exceptional hospitality is built through invested people and a deep respect for place, culture, and community.

The Great HR Awards 2025 recognise organisations demonstrating structured and effective human resource practices that positively impact employee engagement and organisational performance. Receiving the Certificate of Excellence in the Hospitality, Tourism and Leisure Sector is a significant milestone for Fox Resorts, underscoring the Group’s long-standing commitment to investing in its people.

Fox Resorts focuses on employee welfare programmes, motivation initiatives, and clear career progression pathways. The Group invests in training, performance-based development, and internal promotions to encourage long-term careers. Employee satisfaction is measured, monitored, and reviewed regularly, ensuring teams feel valued, supported, and inspired.

Hospitality is a profoundly human industry, shaped by genuine smiles, thoughtful gestures, and moments of care that make guests feel welcomed. These experiences come from people who feel proud and motivated — and the Great HR Certificate of Excellence recognises that when employees thrive, authentic hospitality follows naturally.

Fox Jaffna by Fox Resorts was awarded Best Accommodation Provider at the inaugural Northern Province Tourism Awards 2025, recognising excellence in tourism across Sri Lanka’s Northern Province. The awards celebrate establishments that uphold high service standards while authentically representing the region’s heritage, culture, and identity.

Fox Jaffna stands as the only truly authentic hotel experience in Jaffna, offering guests the feeling of staying in a traditional home rather than a conventional hotel. Housed in a restored heritage building, the property reflects the warmth and character of the region. Guests enjoy authentic Jaffna cuisine, prepared using traditional recipes, and a preserved bunker experience. One bunker has been converted into a history museum, allowing guests to explore the rich history and heritage of the country from a single place, without leaving the hotel.

The award was granted following a formal application and inspection process, ensuring recognition was based on merit, authenticity, and guest experience. The achievement reflects the dedication of the Fox Jaffna team and their commitment to representing Jaffna with pride and care.


‘When you have a spirited team dedicated to offering true, honest, and heartfelt hospitality,  supported by a management team that is equally committed to looking after its people, recognitions of these nature become a natural outcome. These awards belong to our teams, whose passion and care are felt in every guest experience we create’ said Suresh Srinivasan, Group CEO of Fox Resorts.

As Fox Resorts grows, these awards serve as both recognition and inspiration, to continue shaping Sri Lanka’s boutique hospitality landscape with authenticity, care, and human connection.
