Experience the epitome of colonial charm at The Kandy House, Sri Lanka. This ancestral manor house, transformed into a luxurious boutique hotel, effortlessly combines the character of a bygone era with contemporary sophistication.
Nestled in a verdant, tropical garden near the historic city of Kandy, this exclusive retreat offers a serene sanctuary for its lucky guests.
Each of its nine uniquely designed bedrooms is named after a different butterfly and exudes an individual character, reflecting a perfect blend of traditional architecture and modern amenities.
The resort also has a wonderful outdoor pool as well as massage services. You can reserve an individual room, or book the entire villa for large group stays.
The Kandy House also has initiatives to try and limit their impact on the environment. They encourage water-saving and energy-saving wherever possible, and never use single-use plastic water bottles in the villa – instead, they have a filtered drinking water system. They also prioritize organic produce for their catering.
The Kandy House is an idyllic escape for those seeking a blend of cultural richness, serenity, and refined luxury. Get in touch today to book your peaceful Sri Lankan getaway.

While the legal situation for LGBTQ+ individuals in Sri Lanka remains challenging, with same-sex sexual activity still criminalized under colonial-era laws, the country offers a more welcoming reality for LGBTQ+ travelers. Many resorts and hotels, particularly in tourist-heavy areas, actively cater to queer visitors, offering safe, inclusive environments where LGBTQ+ individuals can feel comfortable and respected.
Sri Lanka’s vibrant tourist destinations, such as Colombo, Galle, and the beaches of the South Coast, have developed a reputation for being LGBTQ+-friendly, with a growing number of establishments offering queer-inclusive services. Although some discretion is advised due to the country’s conservative cultural attitudes, many international visitors report having an enjoyable and safe experience.
Sri Lanka’s stunning beaches, rich culture, and warm hospitality make it an increasingly popular destination for LGBTQ+ travelers seeking adventure and relaxation. As with any destination, it’s important to be aware of local customs and laws, but Sri Lanka remains a beautiful and welcoming place for those looking to explore a tropical paradise.
