A palpable sense of splendor surrounds your home away from home. Kick off your dusty shoes, slip into something cool and settle down with a good book. You can be yourself at your home in paradise, without having to lift a finger. Silky sand gives way to the rip and curl of blue-green ocean that is safe for swimming throughout the year. The villa is surrounded by lush greenery tropical gardens in a quiet environment. This is an ideal place for nature lovers and bird watchers. The villa’s cool neutral pallet is offset by lively accents in the form of vibrant paintings and exquisite antique furniture. You can feel the love that the owners have for their tropical retreat which is enlivened with personal artifacts. Dotted along the open plan verandah are armchairs and loveseats to lounge on.
Away from the concrete jungle, after a tiring day, relax in total bliss in quietness. Wake up with the sounds of Sri Lanka, see the native garden out of your window, taste amazing Sri Lankan cuisine for breakfast and feel the difference. Surrender yourself to the enchantment of an enriched land where wild flora and fauna cascade effortlessly into the surroundings, where the mornings are overflowing with chirps of myriads of different varieties of birds wander along in blissful ignorance enjoying the true pleasures of a tropical paradise. The Walauwa Family invite you to come and experience it all for yourself. Come and enjoy the difference! Enjoy the pleasure of freedom!!
