The Island

YOUR HAPPY PLACE

Your private island is a 40-minute drive from central Colombo, Sri Lanka, on the tranquil Bolgoda Lake.

You park your car at the jetty where we meet and take you on a 5-minute boat ride. 

​

THE PLACE

The villa on the Island has 3 fully-furnished bedrooms, all with en-suite bathrooms. It was designed by architect Ulrick Plesner, business partner to Geoffrey Bawa. There's an equipped kitchen and dining area. The colonial open veranda overlooks a lawn, large enough to play cricket, football and even tag! 

​

The saltwater infinity swimming pool makes for a refreshing dip in the morning or afternoon. Sun loungers and parasols provide shade for a nap or reading a good book during the day. The bonfire can be the place to sit around with a drink, toast marshmallows and tell stories late into the night. 

​​

NATURE

​

The Island is blessed with abundant wildlife. There are coconut trees and a variety of tropical birdlife.  The Reflection Spot is also perfect for fishing, outdoor dining and general contemplation. There is something thrilling about watching the sunrise or sunset here – no matter which way you look, you are surrounded by the magical changes of colour in the sky. 

​

WHO'S IT FOR?

​

The Island hosts a fun day out for friends, a quiet weekend retreat for families, a romantic getaway with someone special, or a day of camaraderie and team-building with your colleagues. You can also celebrate special occasions like birthdays and weddings with unique flavour.  Catering and specials can be arranged on demand.
