What is it Really like?
Maliga Kanda means Mountain Palace, an apt name for this seven-bedroom villa, perched on a hill next to a serene Buddhist temple. Cooled by mountain breezes and 6km from lovely Wijaya Beach, it enjoys one of the best locations in southern Sri Lanka.
The villa is built in colonial style, with spacious rooms opening onto a shady terrace at ground level and onto a veranda on the first floor.
Surrounded by lush tropical forest, with views over the misty rice fields below, it’s easy to imagine that this is your own Sri Lankan plantation.
The grounds’ luxurious appointments include a magnificent infinity pool and an open-sided dining pavilion with a comfortable seating area. Here you will also find a garden cottage housing two of the villa’s luxurious bedrooms.
