Rock Villa Bentota

At Taru Villas – Rock Villa, a fusion of traditional Sri Lankan hospitality, heritage, and architecture come together to give you a piece of this paradise.

A 170 year old manor house set on a 2 acre coconut grove and lush tropical gardens fronts an undeveloped golden beach of Bentota.

Owned by Sri Lankan Lifestyle designer – Nayantara Fonseka, this manor house has been caringly refurbished to its present glory maintaining its original architectural features.

A single-track railway line crosses through the property and one must take simple strides over it to access the beach.
