South West Sri Lanka Estate Summary

Situated on a sweeping, unspoilt beach on the southwestern coast shared only with fishermen, Max Wadiya offers a sanctuary of peace and tranquility. It has a double-story villa of three bedrooms with en suite bathrooms, and attached by a delightful courtyard, two self-contained luxury suites in a separate building, all with wrap-around views of the ocean.. The bedrooms are air-conditioned and antique colonial furniture and carefully selected local art lend a comfortable elegance and warmth. The beautifully landscaped garden, partially shaded by a coconut grove, is ideal for sun-bathing, playing with the children in the wading pool or swaying in hammocks on the edge of the beach.. From the verandas, garden or beach, watch the evening sky blaze in brilliant tropical sunsets.

We were all so happy at the Wadiya, we so much enjoyed the company of Ranjan and the staff, it really felt that we were amongst friends. Wendy Williams, (wendygwilliams@gmail.com) 3. Thank you for a marvellous stay. Nothing seemed to much trouble and many things well beyond the call of duty. Great place for us to gather from 3 continents. Peter Foster, (Peter.Foster@telegraph.co.uk) Dec 2007 4 Just wanted to say thanks very much for everything. Our stay at the Wadiya was absolutely amazing, and we both couldn't have thought of a nicer place to spend our honeymoon. Ranjan and all the guys were brilliant and made our stay amazing.
