The company’s first venture in Sri Lanka, the former Hotel Serendib in Bentota, was rebranded as the Avani Bentota Resort and Spa, and will open on 1 December 2011.
The hotel, which is 50% owned by Hemas unit Serendib Leisure and 20% by Minor International, was refurbished at a cost of LKR650m ($6m).
