Religion may not exactly be a foremost concern when one plans a fun-filled holiday by the beach, but for some, being able to carry on their spiritual routines even during a vacation is indeed an added bonus.
Acknowledging the multi-cultural diversity of their guests, the Confifi Group Hotels in Beruwela, Sri Lanka has recently taken some steps to address the specific needs of their Muslim patrons, whose number has slowly been increasing along with their regular clientèle of Sri Lankans and resident expatriates. At the three hotels that the group manages – the Club Palm Garden Beach Resort, Riverina Hotel, and Eden Resort and Spa – some particular facilities have been added that cater specifically to Muslim guests.
In every bedroom of each hotel, the Quiblah direction has been marked to help guests orient themselves more easily before praying. A copy of the Holy Qur’an will be especially placed in rooms booked by Muslim guests, aside from being readily available upon request at the reception area. A special Prayer Room with prayer mats is also open for use at any time. Aside from these new adjustments in service, the three hotels already refrain from serving pork products in their menus, serving only Halal fresh meats acquired from certified Halal suppliers. With these initiatives, the hotels wish to show that the requirements of their Muslim patrons are also well-recognized and held just as important as their regular customers’ needs.
Located in the scenic resort town of Beruwela in Sri Lanka, the three hotels managed by the Confifi Group all boast of beautiful beach fronts. The 5-star Eden Resort and Spa is the company flagship well-known for their health and wellness services, the 4-star Riverina Hotel is a favourite amongst vacationing families, and the Club Palm Garden Beach Resort is popular with guests seeking a party atmosphere with loads of entertainment. Each resort has its own unique qualities, but all promise warm Sri Lankan hospitality and a lovely sun-kissed beach front.
