We are delighted to invite you to our home for a holiday experience with a difference. Unique boutique guest house with 6 separate suites non overlooking the other. All are exceptionally large and airy with private outside dining area. If you ;love nature this is the place for you. Enjoy the service of our very welcoming and caring staff.
I am Rohan from Bentota, Sri Lanka. I married Karen from UK, in 2006 and we built Shangri-Lanka Villa on my family land where I was born. We officially opened in 2007.
We are situated in the heart of a traditional Sri-Lankan village. Surrounded by nature, yet only 15 minutes walk or 5 mins tuk from the magnificent Bentota beach.
