The Villa Bentota

Contemporary-styled heritage
hotel in Bentota

Dating back to 1880, this heritage property was owned by Geoffrey Bawa, Sri Lanka’s most celebrated architect, in the 1980s, when he re-modelled the building and opened it as a boutique hotel. In 2021 it became the very latest member of the KK Collection family, and underwent an extensive renovation, and its approach to affordable luxury is reflected in the brand’s timeless and meticulously stylish aesthetic. Spend days relaxing on deep verandas and terraces, or beside the pool. Slip into the warm Indian Ocean. Enjoy sundowners on the beach and indulge your body and mind with a spa treatment. Experience extraordinary events within the private tropical gardens of this unique Bentota villa.
