Your transfer to Heritance Negombo
Heritance Negombo is in Porutota, 7 kilometres from Bandaranaike International Airport — about 20 minutes in normal traffic.
The quoted distance is measured to Negombo. Heritance Negombo is about 3 kilometres north of the centre, and that last stretch is the part of the drive that varies with the hour rather than with the route. The fare is the same for any address in Negombo; a car crossing the city at half past four in the afternoon is not making the same journey as one arriving at dawn.
It is on the far side of Negombo from the airport, about 2 kilometres beyond the centre in a straight line, so the drive in finishes by crossing the city rather than stopping short of it.
The nearest hotel on this site is Camelot Beach Hotel in Ethukala, a few minutes on foot.

- Ambuluwawa Tower — about 78 km away in a straight line. A narrow spiral tower on a hilltop near Gampola, climbed for a 360-degree view over the central hills. The last few metres are not for anyone uneasy with heights. Allow a couple of hours.

How this transfer works
One fixed price for the whole car, not per seat. There is no meter, so the figure you are quoted is the figure the booking honours. Give your flight number and the arrival is tracked, so a delayed landing does not cost you the car.
The return leg from Heritance Negombo is the same journey booked the other way, at the same price, and can be arranged now or later in your stay. Departures want you at Bandaranaike three hours before a long-haul flight, so add the 20 min back to that.
