IDEAL LOCATION TO BEGIN OR END YOUR HOLIDAY TO SRI LANKA
Nestled within seven acres of tropical gardens between Negombo and Colombo lies the boutique hotel of Wallawwa. Only a 20-minute drive from Colombo Bandaranaike International Airport, this lovingly restored colonial manor and its peaceful garden setting feels like an oasis of calm and serenity away from the bustling cities of Colombo and Negombo, perfect for relaxing before or after a long-haul flight.
The tranquil 18th century manor house is comprised of 18 bedrooms and suites, all of which features high wooden ceilings and comfortable four-poster beds. Each bedroom opens onto a private veranda with views of the spectacular gardens, and in the Mountbatten Suite, there is also a private plunge pool.
The hotel is only a 45-minute drive south to Sri Lanka’s capital, Colombo. Here you can explore the bustling markets, historic landmarks and hidden gems on a walking tour. If you take a short drive north of the hotel, you will end up in Negombo, which is renowned for its vibrant fish market and often referred to as ‘Little Rome’ for its numerous catholic churches and cathedrals.
Surrounded by vast coconut and pineapple plantations, the rural retreat of Wallawwa is a tranquil contrast to the hustle and bustle of Colombo and the pristine beaches of Negombo. For those who are seeking to relax, head to the on-site spa for a Vikasa yoga class or be pampered by an array of wellness treatments.
