Luxury with a Touch of Adventure
A full immersion in Sri Lanka culture and some exceptional, characterful & luxurious hotels.
Nestled in the hills around Galle, Kahanda Kanda invites you to experience a personal vision of tropical perfection. The villa was originally built in 2000 and is now an exclusive boutique hotel, with seven spacious suites offering seclusion and luxury. Each suite contains a large and comfortable living space, with natural light and fresh air creating a peaceful atmosphere. Glass windows in abundance frame the gorgeous natural surroundings: 12 acres of tea plantation estate, lakes, lily ponds, bougainvillaea, and lush green gardens.
Lily ponds border the comfortable modern Living Pavilion. The Dining Pavilion leads to the infinity pool, polished in dark green and shaded by bougainvillaea. Meals are served in the Dining Pavilion, overlooking the tea estate, or by the pool.
Choose the master-suite, known as the Peacock Suite, for the ultimate in luxury with exquisite lake views, an elegant private courtyard, and a four-poster bed crafted with ebony. Guests can enjoy two outdoor showers in the Hellaconia Suite’s private courtyard, as well as two generous double beds. The grand old Javanese Joglo house is known as Dubu, featuring masterfully carved ceilings and walls made of robust timber. Two bathrooms and a private pool make the Dubu Suite a particularly indulgent choice. Set amongst the tea plantations is Auraylia, known for its spacious veranda, perfect for spotting the exotic birdlife that inhabits the surroundings.
The cooking is exceptional at Kahanda Kanda, with Sri Lankan and Thai specialities and innovative fusion dishes. You can have delicious three-course dinners and two-course lunches whenever you like. The cooks use locally sourced, fresh ingredients, with vegetables, fruits and herbs are grown on-site.
