Set on a quiet stretch of Sri Lanka’s east coast, Kalkudah Beach House is a laid-back retreat made for relaxed seaside living. The three-bedroom Main House and two-bedroom Palm Villa sit on either side of a 22-metre swimming pool, surrounded by coconut palms and overlooking the turquoise ocean. Start your day with a sunrise sea swim, enjoy leisurely games in the garden, and savour fresh seafood infused with regional spices – slow days and simple pleasures at its finest.
