The West Coast attracts the bulk of foreign holidaymakers who flock to the sandy beaches of the Indian Ocean for a traditional beach holiday in Sri Lanka. Although home to a number of larger package hotels, as soon as you cross the Bentota River approximately 2.5 hours south of Colombo, these fade away and are replaced by beautiful private Sri Lankan villas and boutique hotels.

This stretch of coastline is ideal for those looking for the intimacy of a private villa in Sri Lanka but the facilities associated with a popular resort such as local restaurants and water sports.
