At a glance

Kirana, meaning “ray of light,” is a four-bedroom beachfront villa on Sri Lanka’s southwestern coast near Bentota, designed by architect Channa Daswatte and operated by the team behind Santani Wellness.

The villa sits directly on a quiet stretch of beach with a 20-metre infinity pool looking out to sea, and the interiors are open-plan and light-filled, built around views of the gardens and ocean. It can be booked on a room-only basis or taken exclusively as a whole, sleeping up to eight guests.

Dining follows the Santani concept of intelligent eating, built around the Ayurvedic philosophy of Rasa Haya, the six tastes. The kitchen works with taste-based nutrition, balancing the six flavours to suit each guest’s individual needs, with breakfast from continental to Sri Lankan and lunch and dinner drawing on local seafood and produce. The villa does not serve alcohol, though guests are welcome to bring their own.

In detail

Food and Drink

Dining at Kirana follows the Santani concept of intelligent eating, built around the Ayurvedic philosophy of Rasa Haya, the six tastes. Rather than designing menus around nutrients, the kitchen works with taste-based nutrition, balancing the six flavours to suit each guest’s individual needs.

Breakfast extends from continental and full cooked options to a traditional Sri Lankan spread. Lunch and dinner draw on local seafood and Sri Lankan produce, with dietary requirements accommodated throughout. The villa does not serve alcohol, though guests are welcome to bring their own.
Spa and Wellness

Massage and wellness treatments can be arranged on site throughout a stay.

The 20-metre infinity pool and private beach are the main focal points for unwinding during the day, with the villa’s position on a quiet stretch of coast keeping the ocean as the primary soundtrack. Cycling and film nights can also be arranged for guests wanting something to do between beach and pool time.
Location

Kirana sits directly on the beach on Sri Lanka’s southwestern coast near Bentota, on a quiet stretch of coastline.

The setting puts the villa within reach of Bentota’s restaurants and the Bawa-designed Brief Garden and Lunuganga, while staying private and self-contained for guests wanting beach time without the busier resort strip.

Wilderness to Waves: Luxury Honeymoons in Kenya
