Villa Santé

We had a memorable, heartwarming and adventurous time at this charming villa, on our recent trip to Sri Lanka. The bedrooms were spacious, clean, air-conditioned, comfortable and cozy. The six staff members who attended to our needs from pool-side to dining hall, were warm, humble, respectful and went beyond the call of duty. The meals were Sri Lankan delights on our request (and teenagers ate in between meals also), including lagoon-side seafood specialties. Cooked with fresh ingredients, the meals were scrumptious. In this lovely remote villa, set in a coconut grove with Sri Lankan type hospitality, we made lasting memories playing many board games way into the night, engaging in pool volleyball competitions and indulging in long family type meals. The villa is right beside a kite surfing school, where my teenage kids and their cousins learned this fun sport, in a safe environment. Our trip was topped by an early morning safari to Wilpattu (Sri-lanka’s largest forest reserve), which was an hour’s drive from the villa. Highly recommended for large families with kids.
