Again, I may share pictures of the nicest small boutique hotel I know in Bentota, where I really feel at home:

Philippe,

Thank you so very much for suggesting this place to me when I was visiting you! Spectacular place, spectacular art and architecture, and last but not least - I had an outstanding lunch here! Would love to come back! :) You will recognize these two photos.

Bo ,

I am glad you loved the place and and the cuisine.
This place has been designed by Geoffrey Bawa as a private house and "altered" by the new owner who added the reception's building, the restaurant pavilion, the pool and the "Ambalama", all which David Robson ( Bawa's biographer) hates.
But I love the place since I find one can still feel the intimacy of the place. And I like the kindness of the people.

I am sorry to tell I'll be there again next month. :)

Yes, then you would be very close to Brief garden's Loxococcus and Lunuganga gardens, and if you like that, just on the beach.
