our team

Passionate About Sri Lanka.

Our friendly team is on hand to deliver the perfect Sri Lankan holiday for those after an authentic experience. The villa underwent a major renovation in 2019, being completely stripped out and redesigned to provide modern comforts and amenities in the heart of Sri Lanka’s tropical South Coast.

Our local team has in-depth local knowledge of the island and can readily organise all aspects of your trip, including airport transfers, islandwide tours, personalised itineraries and of course, amazing stays at our villa.

James is your go to for booking enquiries, questions about the villa and any personalised tour itineraries.
