Our Story
It has been a labor of love to transform a neglected coconut plantation into a place of unparalleled beauty.
We are proud of the happiness we have brought to guests, the contributions we have made to the community, and the accolades this small boutique hotel has garnered from travel agents, booking.com, Expedia, and Trip Advisor.
Being named 1 of the top 25 boutique hotels in Sri Lanka by Trip Advisor has been especially gratifying.

Take a boat safari from our private boat dock and explore the nearby magnrove jungles during the day.
At sunset, watch hundreds of fruit bats fly across the river.
At night, dip your feet into the sand and dine by candlelight in our waterside pavilion.
