Near Kirana, a Santani Villa

At the villa, on request

  • Cooking with the villa chef. Curries, sambols and hoppers made in the villa kitchen, from coconut scraped by hand to the tempering of the spices. Then you eat it all.
  • Dancers and drummers at the villa. An evening of Kandyan and low-country dance and drumming on the lawn, arranged for a celebration or simply for the night.
  • Dinner on the sand, by lantern. A table set on the beach below the villa, with the chef cooking a few paces away and nothing else in sight.
  • A spa ritual for two. Two therapists, two hours and oils blended for the day, at the villa or in a spa pavilion among the tea.

Getting there

  • Chauffeur for the stay. A car and driver on call for the length of your trip.
