“A peaceful resort set around verdant paddy fields within sight of Sigiriya. Private villas are intimate, secluded spaces with chic interiors, superb terraces & plunge pools. The two-storey restaurant serves phenomenal international cuisine. A luxurious tribute to tradition in the Cultural Triangle.”
