Sri Lanka is a wonderful place to be over Christmas and New Year and in years gone by, hotels sell out very early.
 
This year is a little different. Due to the country’s recent economic and political instabilities, and summertime travel advisories many hotels in Sri Lanka lost bookings. Since travel advisories relaxed at the start of this month, the island, having secured IMF funding, finds itself in a much improved situation. Sri Lanka should be fully on your radar once again.
