Sian O –
This elegant villa was an oasis right in the centre of Kandy. With beautiful gardens and pool, it was like stepping into another world, surrounded by art, curios and antiques. Dinner in the central courtyard was delicious and expertly prepared. Coming back to the villa after a busy day exploring Kandy was a welcome retreat, and the staff were friendly and professional. Thank you for making our stay so enjoyable.
Sara O’Shea –
What a location. Super central for those in a large group needing a base and a lovely base at that. The villa oozes style and has a wonderful feeling as soon as you walk through the doors. Every piece has history from the tiles to the furnishings. Given it’s location you do hear the morning train go by but it add to the charm of style in this historical town. Great food, great team and highly recommended.
