The Royal Peak Resort
Where Legacy Meets Nature
The Royal Peak Resort might be a recent addition to Sri Lanka’s hospitality industry, but its origin goes back generations. Once the beloved ancestral home of Mr. Niroshan Ranaweera’s family, this resort carries memories, stories, and the foundation core of what makes it a place where generations lived. After moving abroad, Mr. Ranaweera found himself often wandering through nostalgia of back home, longing for the rainy mountains and the feeling of home where his family once lived. That longing became the foundation for The Royal Peak Resort, you see now.
With a deep love for nature and a passion for sustainable living, where the damage to the environment is minimal, Mr. Ranaweera transformed his family home into a sanctuary, a place where both locals and foreign tourists could rediscover peace, beauty, and connection with nature. His vision of combining nature with luxury, gave birth to The Royal Peak Resort, an eco-conscious retreat surrounded by mid-gem regions of Sri Lanka where it’s rare to find such, making the resort one of a kind.
