At a glance

Rock Villa is a 170-year-old Walauwa, a Sri Lankan ancestral heritage house, set within 2.5 acres of tropical gardens and mangroves on a stretch of coastline in Bentota, part of the Nyne Hotels collection.

The building was formerly the holiday home of interior designer Nayantaru Fonseka, and her influence carries through the property in the mix of traditional and contemporary furnishings, Sri Lankan artworks, and considered detail throughout.

The beach is a short walk through the gardens and mangroves beyond the property’s boundary, with the 50-foot pool at the centre of the grounds. The coastline here is quiet enough to attract nesting turtles and a range of birdlife, with Brief Garden and Lunuganga, both designed by the Bawa brothers, a short drive away. The whole villa can be booked exclusively for groups of up to 16 guests, or rooms can be taken individually.

In detail

Food and Drink

The kitchen at Rock Villa draws on fresh local produce, with a menu that covers more ground than most small hotels in the area. Breakfast extends from a full à la carte spread to continental, with a children’s menu available.

Evenings move to a set dinner menu prepared by the in-house chef, drawing on Sri Lankan and international dishes. Meals can be taken in the dining room, the al fresco dining pavilion, or under the stars in the garden. An informal barbecue is available on request.
Spa and Wellness

Massages and treatments are available from the spa gazebo in the gardens.

The 50-foot outdoor pool is the main focal point for daytime relaxing, set within the tropical gardens with views toward the mangroves. The Bentota River is close by for river safaris, kayaking, windsurfing, and jet skiing.
Location

Rock Villa sits on a stretch of coastline in Bentota, on Sri Lanka’s southwest coast, in 2.5 acres of tropical gardens and mangroves.

The beach is a short walk through the gardens, quiet enough to attract nesting turtles. The gardens of Brief Garden and Lunuganga, both designed by the Bawa brothers, are a short drive away, with the Bentota River close by for river-based activities.
