Hotels in Etalai

Yearning for an Etalai escape? Stop your dreaming and start doing. You'll find a small but awesome collection of 4 hotels to choose from within 5 kilometres of the downtown area.

Getting up early often seems like a good idea, but you're on holiday, right? You'll have more time for sleep ins if you snag a room at central digs such as Ruwala Resort and Roshanne Beach Resort.

Holiday at Ruwala Nature & Adventure Park, where you can find plenty of fun activities. If you want to find accommodation not too far away, the Omeesha Beach Hotel and Palagama Beach are two which we'd give a big thumbs up.

Still can't find somewhere to hit the hay in Etalai? Try the Cadjan Earth eco lodge, which can be found 40 kilometres from the heart of town. If that doesn't suit you, check out the Kite Paradise Resort-Kalpitiya, 18 kilometres away.

Designer jeans or year-round shorts? However you prefer to roll, you're certain to enjoy a trip to Anuradhapura, 85 kilometres away. With the Jetavanaramaya and the Sri Maha Bodhi to explore, you won't be bored here. Some of our recommended Anuradhapura hotels and accommodations include the Indika Lake Resort and Villu Villa. Or, you could stay in Nayinamadama East, 85 kilometres to the south of Etalai, where you'll find the Villa Sunshine Hotel and Shanketha Palace Hotel. Whether you're just passing through or staying in Nayinamadama East, be sure to visit Negombo Beach and St Anthony's Church.

Negombo is 100 kilometres from Etalai and has a population of 140,000. When you're in the area, you'd be mad if you didn't visit the Angurukaramulla Temple, the Maris Stella College and Ave Maria Convent. Why not also explore St. Sebastian's Church and St.Mary's Church? There are numerous great hotels available for your stay in Negombo. Have a squiz at the facilities at the Jetwing Beach and Jetwing Blue.

So when you're ready to hit the bright lights of Etalai, lastminute.com.au's the one to take you there. Like we've said, travel is our middle name! (don't fact check this).
