Villa 23 | Mirissa | 5 bedrooms

Luxury Family Villa in Mirissa, Sri Lanka

A 5-bedroom Beach Villa in Mirissa, South Coast of Sri Lanka. Sleeps max 8 adults + 2 children.

Christmas and New year Bookings: Change over must be 28th/29th December

This luxury Villa in Mirissa sits proudly on a clifftop filled with palm trees, enjoying exceptional elevated south facing ocean views. Enter the gardens from the main gate and meander along a herringbone path through the trees, to emerge at a breath-taking view of the Indian Ocean. The grand front door beckons you forward onto the vast teak planks. The gardens are terraced, and four of the five bedrooms share the top terrace with the sitting room and large veranda, whilst the fifth bedroom is accessed from a lower level terrace.

On entering the house, four large arches dominate the high ceiling in the main living room, creating a unique space, separated by antique furniture and comfy sofas.  Hanging from the centre of the ceiling is a large iron chandelier adding to the grandeur. Extending out from the main living space towards the Indian Ocean is a veranda, decked with a dining table, wicker furniture and an appealing day bed… the ideal spot to lap up the view. Distance to airport: approximately 2:45 hrs, depending on traffic.

MANAGEMENT NOTE:

Overview: This is one of THE most exclusive villas on the island due to its incredible cliff-top location. Off the beaten track, well away from the main road and next to a functioning Temple.  If you are looking for peace and relaxation, villa # 23 will satisfy. Good staff with an experienced chef. Well maintained. Although there is an open pond and an un-fenced pool, the house is child friendly.

Things to be aware of: The bedrooms and bathrooms could do with an upgrade to match the view. The guest beds are queen size and the Lower Ground bedroom is a spillover, as this room is normally used as a Library. The sea can be rough out of season.  Children need to be supervised in pool/on beach. Beach is small and not good for swimming. The villa is approx. 50 mins from Galle.

The positives: Exclusive and relaxing. Close to the beautiful Mirissa beach, with beach bars and seasonally safe sea and swimming. Good and experienced staff and chef. Owner-managed. Two meditation pavilions on the clifftop overlooking the ocean. Infinity edge lap pool. South facing.
