#DesiGirlTraveler: Lazy Day by the Pool in Bentota…

What’s a holiday without some quality R&R by the pool? After a packed day of shopping in Colombo and covering James Ferreira‘s fashion show in the evening (with a little partying mixed in at night, of course), we jumped into a bus the next morning with models Carol Gracias her fiancé Samuel Ziza, Surelee Joseph, Diva Starr Dhawan, Binal Trivedi, Lekha Raman and Swetlana Casper for a drive down to Bentota. One of my favourite things about Colombo has to be the accessibility to gorgeously clean and sunny beaches. In less than two hours, we landed up at Avani Bentota Resort & Spa, ready for a full day of straight chilling! Here’s how we spent our day:

A Welcome Site
Wasting no time, heading straight for…
…the swimming pool!

Another view of the pool…
And the best view of the pool!
Dry off and stretch out on a sunbed…
…and say hello to your friendly visitor
But if the pool’s not for you…
…how about lounging under some palm trees?
Before it’s too late, walk out these gates…
…get your feet in the sand…
…and catch the sunset.
Head back to your room…
…through your private patio.
Wash up!
And consider ordering room service…
…before opting instead for dinner under the stars…
…under this tree.

And just like that – a day well spent! (More pix here.)
