Ranawara is a stylish, coastal retreat, set northeast of Tangalle, on the southern coast of Sri Lanka. Designed for families and small group of friends, it is safely tucked within 23 acres of tropical gardens and yet close to golden sand beach that joins with the adjacent Kahandamodara beach to its west. Together they form the longest stretch of secluded beaches and provide an idyllic hideaway for friends and families looking to enjoy a slice of luxury along the South Coast of Sri Lanka.
The Ranawara Villa houses just seven spacious suites. The main villa extends over a total of 4,200 sqm of open plan living, including five elegant suites and a further two single-suite chalets are found on the estate grounds. Traditional in style, it has slopping terracotta roofs, long shaded causeways and open-air pavilions. Interior areas flow seamlessly onto terraces and verandas edged by pillared walkways, soft stone paving and mirror-still ponds providing a sense of ultimate calm.
The philosophy at the Ranawara Villa is to create a stillness of mind. Every space is uncluttered, sea shell white and pristine. Even contemporary meals created by an experienced chef are served on a long 12-seat table or indoors on a 6-seater round table. Equally spacious bathrooms have colonial style ceiling fans and there is an open air but curtained massage parlour. Your dedicated butler will ensure every need is met including organising your varied day trips to the nearby surrounds.

When to go Sri Lanka is a year-round destination with consistently warm temperatures and lots of sunshine. There are two monsoon seasons but they only bring rain to the west and south-west coasts from May to September; and the east coast and northern region between October and February. The rest of the year is sunny and dry but the months of December to April are probably the best time to visit. Colombo and the low-lying coastal regions have an average temperature of 27°C.
