Casa Heliconia is a small and luxurious hideaway, located only 25km from the Colombo International airport. Set on a three-acre fruit and vegetable estate in the rural village of Kaleliya between Kandy and Colombo, it makes an ideal stop either before or after your Sri Lanka holiday. Surrounded by picturesque tropical jungle that envelops the stylish property, it is the perfect retreat for couples or families who want to simply soak in the beauty of rural Sri Lanka.
There are just two Pavilion style bedrooms in Casa Heliconia. Both the Pavilions are elaborately decorated; expect rich brocade fabrics, glass chandeliers, annexed kitchen and private dining terrace. Two additional Pavilions provide ample space for relaxation with a small infinity pool overlooking the paddy fields, as well as an air-conditioned living area with home theatre system. Sri Lankan cuisine is at the heart of the menu and both breakfast and dinner are included in the stay.
Casa Heliconia is located on the perimeter of a farming village, with a stunning stupa and is surrounded by plantations. Guests can explore the neighbouring villages to see temples and stupas or take leisurely walks in the farmland. Birdwatchers can spend their day in the garden covered with fruit trees while activity enthusiasts can go biking in the surrounds. Further afield is Pinnawala Elephant Orphanage where the island’s abandoned or orphaned wild elephants are protected.
