Why Lansiya?

This highly romantic one bedroom villa overlooking a deserted sandy bay is ideal for couples or families searching for a private beachside location. Situated on a small hill, Lansiya sits on two acres of gently undulating coastal gardens shaded by swaying coconut palms that border the soft white sand of Seenimodera Bay, close to Tangalle. At the heart of the garden is an infinity pool from where swimmers can languidly gaze at the spectacular coastal views and watch the waves crashing onto the shore below. A deep lounge pavilion bedecked with cane furniture beside the pool affords guests the perfect place to get lost in a book, gaze at the views and indulge in some serious R & R.

The design of the property has been inspired by buildings from old Buddhist temple complexes and the main house features a sweeping tiled roof that reaches down to provide ample shade on the furnished verandah below. High roofs, terracotta floor tiles and brightly painted window and door frames compliment the fresh white washed walls. The main villa, which houses the Master Bedroom, to the front of the land has one of the most spectacular views from any room in Sri Lanka. It is beautifully but simply designed with wooden furniture, warm colours and delicate fabrics while an open sided terrace lets the fresh sea breezes infiltrate the room.

The cuisine at Lansiya is a delicious combination of eastern and western cuisine, using locally sourced produce bought fresh every day. The lounge pavilion and beautiful garden provide ample locations for dining whilst cocktails at the end of the day are a must as the property benefits from the most magnificently vibrant sunsets. Seenimodera Beach is nearly always deserted and a great place for walking, jogging, swimming and even body boarding in the mornings when the sea is at its calmest. For the ultimate in privacy – ideal for both romancing couples and families alike – Lansiya is a great value choice.

In the know
Lansiya’s coconut massages have been highly praised and are a perfect aid to relaxation.

The privacy & beauty of Seenimodera Beach is wonderful and the bay is nearly deserted except for a few fishermen.

Lansiya is only a ten minute drive from the southern coastal town of Tangalle. Whale and dolphin watching excursions for the day and watching Turtles nest are just a few memorable experiences. Bundala, Yala and Uda Walawe national parks can easily be visited in a day.

Travel time from the airport is approximately 7 hours by road; 1 ¼ hours by air.

Children are welcome and will love the large garden. A nanny is available during the day.
