Description

Ginigala House is the quintessential Sri Lankan villa. With Dutch colonial influences and packed with original features such as the shuttered windows with their intricately carved louvres, the villa has been painstakingly restored to create an inviting, calm, three-bedroom retreat with all 21st Century conveniences whilst losing none of its antique charm.

Ginigala House is peacefully sited on its own large estate. The accommodation comprises a huge first-floor master suite with a luxurious bathroom that boasts both a walk-in shower and a claw-footed bathtub along with two further ground floor bedrooms which share a bathroom. All bedrooms are air-conditioned. The guest accommodation is completed by a a large sitting room and a spectacular double height lobby area.

Outside the house is surrounded by shady verandas for sitting and dining along with a large octagonal ambalama.

The pool area is truly breathtaking. Approached down an an imposing staircase it is walled on three sides providing both privacy and shade as well as lots of places for soaking up some rays.

Ginigala House comes with a full staff. The rent includes a tropical breakfast and there is a private chef to prepare other meals. Dining is charged simply at the cost of the groceries.

The villa is located in popular Heenatigala, a short tuk-tuk drive away from the beaches at Habaraduwa, Talpe and Unawatuna, and 20 minutes from Galle Fort.
