Stunning villa on idyllic Ranna Beach located in the Tangalle Riviera, listed as one of the best 50 beaches in the world. The property is nestled within a coconut grove facing the beach . A large (12 Metre, 40 feet long) INFINITY POOL, 15M from the beach boundary Each Room faces the beach and has a stunning view. Rooms are large with extra wide windows The villa was designed by Ashley De Vos, one of Sri Lanka’s best known and award-winning architects.
A housekeeper manages the villa and property on behalf of the owner. Guests will be greeted by the housekeeper for check-ins from 07:30 - 17:00. Late check-ins available by arrangement.
The villa is on a secluded, idyllic beach with a desert island feel. The sounds of birds - peacocks, parrots, mynas - chime with the sound of tropical waves crashing against the beach sand. In the evenings and early mornings. 400M away, fisherman can be seen in their traditional catamarans setting off and bringing in their daily catch of fresh fish, and lobsters. The beach is famous for its Turtles and Kalametiya National Park, a stunning bird sanctuary, is ten minutes away. Local Tuk-Tuks, Taxis are readily available and the bus to Tangalle stops in front of the property.
