Hiru Suite

Karabuโ or clove was one of the rarest and most expensive spices in the Roman and Medieval world. Prized for its flavour and aroma, and for its medicinal qualities โ particularly in Ayurveda, clove was among the most valuable of the spices for its use as a breath freshener, perfume and food flavouring. Although the spice was not grown in Sri Lanka, it is believed that the oldest clove in the world may have been excavated from an ancient port of Sri Lanka dating back to 200 BC.
In the Suite, Sameera Kalupahana depicts the clove and its flower in a natural history like drawing. Behind the bed, โTeak Stripesโ is a work by Barefoot, using the inspiration of plants of Sri Lanka in abstract geometry with vivid colour. This feature was woven for Cinnamon Bentota Beach by local artists and craftsmen.
The art within the room is with 100% locally sourced material and craftsmanship.
