Making Paradise Home, Sri Lanka

GBP800 a night

Rest of the World Auraliya was designed and built twenty years ago, by renowned Australian architect Bruce Fell-Smith as an oasis for family and friends. The villa comfortably sleeps 12. Two seaside family suites are designed to enable families to have their children accessible via the interconnecting bathrooms with two further bedrooms to the rear of the property. Two large pavilions sit on either side of a cruciform swimming pool designed with shallow paddling areas in front of the pavilions. A third breakfast/lunch pavilion with glorious sea views is located close to the sea wall. There are two additional seating areas; a raised seating area designed to capture the glorious sunsets and a second quiet retreat in which to relax. Within the property walls facing the sea is Auraliya's own private sandy area, together with a half-acre garden allowing for ball games. Jagath our chef rightly has the reputation of being one of the best in the area. Menus include western as well local cuisine.
