KK Collection
Welcome to the KK Collection
Decadence, style and serenity lie in wait on the southern coast of Sri Lanka, near the UNESCO-listed fort city of Galle, and in two of the island’s most wildlife-dense national parks. Two elegant boutique hotels, each distinct in setting and style, and a pair of recently upgraded luxury safari camps, form the basis of the KK Collection known for its contemporary styling, personalised service and quintessential Sri Lankan experience.
Award-winning Kahanda Kanda, perched on a hilltop encircled by 13 acres of tea, is an exquisite retreat, defined by its tropical modernist architecture, its Koggala Lake views and discreet, private atmosphere. Each of the 12 suites and villas is a tranquil haven of timeless tropical style, and many of them come with their own gardens and pools. The setting is blissfully serene yet Galle’s beaches are just 15 minutes drive away.
Sister hotel KK Beach is a smart contemporary 10-bedroom boutique hotel perched on pristine Habaraduwa Beach, near Galle. The bedrooms, living and dining areas, and palm-shaded swimming pool all provide uninterrupted Indian Ocean views. Our chic, blue-accented rooms are some of the most calming beachfront sleeps on the south coast.
New for 2020 is Leopard Safaris by KK Collection, a clique of luxury tented suites on the wildlife-dense fringes of Yala and Wilpattu national parks – each a hotspot for leopards, sloth bears, elephants and birds. Offering some of the most stylish sleeps on safari in Sri Lanka, our tented rooms are lavishly spacious, and some come with private pools. Camp facilities include a lounge tent, al fresco dining and swimming pools while our comfortable, customised jeeps proffer memorable game drives into the wild.
Covid Notice
We should like to inform you that currently both Kahanda Kanda and KK Beach are registered as Level 1 Safe and Secure Hotels under the protocols required by the Sri Lanka Tourism Development Authority (SLTDA). This means we are only permitted to accept international tourists at the hotel, and we are unable to accept domestic bookings. We wish to support and be a part of the national effort to revive tourism in Sri Lanka, and we will continue to maintain the strict protocols, as set out by the Ministry of Health and the SLTDA, to ensure the health and safety of our guests as well as our staff.
Kahanda Kanda
Set amidst the palm fringed jungle and tea plantations of southern Sri Lanka, Kahanda Kanda is a hidden gem where culture, wellness and luxury combine. Our boutique hotel in Sri Lanka offers 12 individually designed villas (7 with private pools) to relax and unwind, just a short tuk-tuk ride from the UNESCO world heritage site Galle Fort. High-end personalised service is a trademark of the KK Collection. We’ll indulge you, respect your privacy, and offer to pepper your trip with insider tips. Think of our hotels as luxe private villas, offering world-class service tailored to individuals. Our fresh fusion cooking using high quality ingredients is one of the highlights of a stay at our hotels and we aim to use as much fresh produce as possible from our own organic gardens. Kahanda Kanda and KK Beach are cherished by couples and honeymooners looking for peace and privacy. They also make fantastic venues for destination weddings and we have a number of customisable packages for up to 100 guests to help you plan your special day.
KK Beach
KK Beach opened its doors in mid-December 2016 and is a contemporary and stylish beachfront boutique hotel with six stunning suites, overlooking the Indian Ocean. Located on the west side of Habaraduwa, the hotel is just 12km from Galle and the beach stretches as far as the eye can see.
Leopard Safaris
“your best choice for an outstanding safari experience”. Our exciting eco wilderness camps are on the cusp of Sri Lanka’s stunning Yala and Wilpattu National Parks. These are two of the best reserves which offer a large variety of wildlife spotting for your safari adventure.
