The Wallawwa is an atmospheric and stylish retreat in the tree-clad countryside just 20 minutes' drive from Bandaranaike International airport. Although not located on a beach, few can argue that there is a more relaxing and peaceful place to start or end your tour of Sri Lanka. The Wallawwa has just 18 rooms and suites, each well equipped with modern amenities, spacious bathrooms and a touch of colonial elegance. There is a restaurant serving a mouth-watering selection of local and international favourites, complementary Wi-Fi and an inviting swimming pool tucked away in the hotel's luscious gardens.
