Connect with Nature

Imagine ...

 

  • swimming in your private plunge pool, having cocktails on your deck, dining under the stars, watching hundreds of fruit bats fly overhead at sunset, ...
     

  • bathing under a cascading rain shower, rejuvenating with a 4-hand massage,  drifting on the water during a floating sound bath, ...
     

  • gliding on a boat through a mangrove jungle, learning how to cook a Sri Lankan meal, participating in a spice mixing workshop, roasting your own coffee, ...
     

  • waking up in your own private villa to the sound of birdsong.

Here romance blossoms. 

Each villa offers a secluded sanctuary. ​

To enhance the romance, say I love you with our Romantic Welcome Package: flower petals on the bed, a flower arrangement in the villa, and a floating heart in the pool.

Gourmet meals, all fresco dining, and tropical cocktails sweeten the mood.
