Why House
The where and why on Sri Lanka





This family-friendly hotel is an informal yet opulent stay, set within a three-acre walled garden of tropical plants, fruit and spice trees (there’s also a large swimming pool). Up to 24 guests can stay in ten individually designed, double en-suite guest rooms boasting private terraces.
Food offerings include Sri Lankan, Western or Asian dining, adapted to guests’ needs (with family and children’s options). The hotel’s two dogs welcome guests, and in particular enjoy entertaining younger visitors.
Situated a mere 15 minutes from UNESCO world heritage site Galle Fort, the hotel is also a short walk or tuk tuk ride away from the beautiful lagoon and sands at Dalawella Beach.
