Luxury Sri Lanka Holidays

Sri Lanka’s last king lived in this elegant residence turned heritage hotel. Guests here enjoy a royal experience too, as Adigar's Manor is amongst the best boutique hotels on the island.

A country house hotel in tropical garden splendour, the Wallawwa, mere minutes from the airport in Colombo, is a hidden Sri Lankan gem.

Mountains, velvet tea plantations, mirror still lakes… this is the highland high life in Sri Lanka and the all-round view at the Ceylon Tea Trails, a small, exclusive and ultra-lux hideaway hotel at the heart of it all.

The choices at Vil Uyana, one of the Leading Small Hotels of the World, are simple. Choose from a room within a tropical rainforest, or overlooking lush marshes or a shimmering lake.

Passikudah is perhaps Sri Lanka’s most seductive beach, and the Uga Bay Resort perhaps one of its most attractive seaside hideaways, with Indian Ocean views from every sumptuous room.

Housed within an elegant heritage building in the upscale Cinnamon Gardens neighbourhood, this luxurious boutique hotel is a sophisticated and secluded base from which to discover the rich history and culture of Colombo, Sri Lanka's largest city.

Chic, compact – just four gorgeous rooms – and one of the only properties in atmospheric Galle Fort that features a swimming pool.
