Host review score
I am Chanaka Tennakoon, as the owner of Villa Olde Ceylon. I have worked as a chef on the island of Capri in Italy for thirty years. Villa Olde Ceylon was founded out of the experiences I gained there. Villa Olde Ceylon, created by combining elements of Sri Lankan traditional culture and art, can be introduced as a place that prioritizes the beautiful natural beauty that reflects three periods of past, present and future.
