Beaches are beaches, even beautiful ones. But if you want to see something that is quintessentially Sri Lankan, you need to head inland. The greatest aspect of this is that you only need to be a couple of KM away from the beach to sense and feel it. Broadening our selection to include some fabulous boutique hotels the properties we have chosen are for those who are not so much trail blasers as simply wanting something out of the ordinary.
And now for something completely different. An ecologically built 2 bedroom house situated on a one and a half acre coconut grove island surrounded by lush green paddy fields. Escape? you cannot beat this.
It was once described as one of the most exclusive homes in Asia, now it is a fabulous boutique hotel with 5 suites that all have views to dream about. The pool is a massive 20m and the cuisine gets better and better. A low level tea estate 20 mins from Galle.
A beautifully renovated country house built in 1712 converted into a fabulous boutique hotel with 4 suites. Perched above the town of Galle with stunning views. The far grander sister property to The Sun House.
A peaceful haven overlooking jungle and rice paddy field perfect for a total recharge and rejuvenation. Yoga pavilion; views to die for; massage table; delicious food; cold beer. Is there anything else?
Nestled on a hill side overlooking jungle and rice paddy fields this lovely family 3 bed house offers the best of both worlds. Close to the beach but blissfully, not on it. A peaceful haven.
