Get To Know James - Our Business Development Manager  

How many of our resort portfolio have you visited?

"So far I have been lucky enough to visit 11 during previous roles and personal trips. Plenty more to go and I already have some booked in!"

What’s your go-to cocktail?

"Got to be an old fashioned. But my favourite destination cocktail is Sri Lankan curry leaf cocktail made with the local spirit arrack."

Which Caribbean island is your favourite and why?

"Barbados. The people were just so friendly, the food was great and it's the birthplace of rum - what's not to love. I also went in a submarine which blew my mind!"

What’s your favourite thing about the Caribbean?

"The diversity between islands."

Which Indian Ocean hotel is your favourite and why?

"Cape Weligama. It’s in a stunning location close to the hustle and bustle of Sri Lanka's south coast, yet it feels beautifully secluded and has stunning cliff top views. The accommodation is also incredible!"

What’s your favourite local dish?

"Kottu, it's the ultimate Sri Lanka comfort food."

What’s your favourite holiday excursion or activity?

"Anything ocean based, especially including wildlife. Swimming with humpback whales is something I will never forget."

What’s your favourite Twin Centre combination?

"Mountains and beach for the best of nature! And would have to say Sri Lanka and the Maldives in general. Sri Lanka is just such a diverse country with an incredibly rich culture and natural beauty, and the Maldives has to be the ultimate beach destination."

Which resort would you most like to visit next?

"Niyama in the Maldives. I’m a little biased as I actually have it booked for my honeymoon next year. It looks amazing and I’m especially excited about being able to paddle out from the beach to the private surf break Vodi!"
