Tropical Garden Tours
The Villa Bentota – and the surrounding area – is synonymous with the legendary Bawa brothers, Geoffrey and Bevis. Guests can step into their world on a fascinating Tropical Garden Tour, which includes the chance to visit Bawa Gardens for lunch or afternoon tea.
Lunuganga, the extensive estate of architect Geoffrey Bawa, now a boutique hotel, overlooks Dedduwa Lake. Its meticulously designed landscape combines rolling hills, woodlands, and wetlands – a true reflection of Bawa’s architectural genius.
Brief, the enchanting home and tropical garden of Bevis Bawa, is equally captivating. Smaller in scale yet rich in history and artistry, it offers a unique glimpse into the creative spirit of one of Sri Lanka’s most celebrated designers.
From Villa Bentota, exploring these iconic Bawa gardens is a must-do experience for lovers of design, history, and tropical beauty.
