SHANGRI-LA’S HAMBANTOTA GOLF RESORT & SPA –

OFFICIAL HOTEL PARTNER FOR THE

ZIMBABWE CRICKET TOUR OF SRI LANKA.

HAMBANTOTA, Sri Lanka: Shangri-La’s Hambantota Golf Resort & Spa, was the Official Hotel Partner for the recently concluded Zimbabwe Cricket Tour of Sri Lanka and hosted over thirty cricketing greats from both the international teams of Zimbabwe and Sri Lanka. The resort has the unique advantage of being located just thirty minutes away from the Mahinda Rajapaksa International Cricket Stadium, where all the cricketing action took place.

Amidst the adrenalin rush of training and preparation for the cricket games, the cricketers found the time for a quick round of golf on the resorts 18 hole golf course spread across a vast coconut-lined plantation with spectacular views of the Indian Ocean.  The resorts Chi Ayurveda Spa served as a blissful retreat for the sportsmen to relax and rejuvenate. The week-long stay also gave the cricketers a chance to enjoy more of the resort including its range of recreational activities and vibrant dining destinations.

With its prime location, Shangri-La’s Hambantota Golf Resort & Spa looks forward to playing host to many more international sporting stars.
