For the ultimate holiday that includes sun, sand, sea, tea, history and so much more, head to Sri Lanka. Ideally located just outside Galle Fort, Kahanda Kanda will sweep you off your feet upon arrival.

Originally built as a private villa, KK is a fabulously designed 8-suite luxury boutique hotel on a twelve acre tea estate. It’s the perfect place to stay to take advantage of the plethora of nearby activities…or do nothing at all. It’s up to you!

The highlights:

*Lounge: Settle in on the oh-so-comfortable furniture in the Living Pavilion and enjoy the quiet serenity, sounds of nature, and gorgeous view of the surrounding mountains, lake and tea trees. You’ll feel like the villa is all your own.

*Swim: Take a dip in the infinity pool with stunning views!

*Eat, Eat, Eat: Served in the alfresco Dining Pavilion, the local and Thai inspired cuisine is just as amazing as the view!

*Galle Fort: The UN World Heritage Site is a short drive from KK. Stroll the streets, shop, enjoy a leisurely lunch, and stop by KK’s very own store named KK – The Collection – a must! Be sure to catch the sunset!

*Sun ‘n Sand: Gorgeous white sand beaches are a short drive from the villa.  Check out Why Beach or Aqua for lunch!

*Tea Time: The famous Hundungoda Tea Estate, famous around the world for its white tea, is just down road from KK. The white tea is perfect for gifts!

*Bird Watching: With 435 resident species and 26 endemic birds, Sri Lanka is truly a bird watcher’s paradise. Watch birds from your balcony, take a walk around the villa, or explore the nearby wetlands and lakes.

*Explore The Outdoors: Take a boat ride on the nearby scenic Kogalla Lake and walk thru the rainforest, go whale watching (best time: January to April), scuba dive (best time: December to April when the water is calmer and clear), and so much more!
