Experience the pampered luxury once reserved for royals and celebrities at Ani Villas Sri Lanka. Set on the south coast of Sri Lanka, the sprawling 15-bedroom property is laid out as a series of pavilions that follow the line of a gorgeous white-sand beach. Whether you’re hosting a special event or simply visiting with family, a private chef, butlers and even on-staff spa therapists will make your stay an unforgettable one.

The property is divided into Villa Divia and Villa Monara. Each has outdoor lounging and dining areas, a beachfront pool with a bar, a kid’s pool with waterslide, a tennis court, a spa and a fitness center, as well as media and games rooms and a bar for lively evenings. Villa Monara also has its own yoga pavilion and special event space. Your stay at the villas starts with a complimentary airport transfer and continues with gourmet chef service, cooking classes specializing in Southeast Asian cuisine and even spa services.

Though the villas’ architecture is based on the traditional layout of salas, or open-air pavilions, with vaulted ceilings and wood columns, the furnishings show a more modern side, with streamlined lounge chairs and mid-century-inspired stools. Sculptures and objets scattered throughout the living areas nod to local heritage. Each of the two villas has its own formal dining area and fully equipped kitchen.

There are seven bedrooms in the Villa Divia complex and eight in the Villa Monara complex; each of the 15 suites has a king bed and en-suite bathroom. At Villa Divia, there are three bedroom pavilions: one with four bedrooms, one with two bedrooms and one with one bedroom. At Villa Monara, there are seven bedroom pavilions; one has two bedrooms and the rest have one bedroom each.

You could spend your whole stay enjoying the villas, but if you’d like to explore, take a stroll on Dickwella Beach, on which the property is located, discover Sri Lankan specialties at Dickwella Market, 9 minutes away by car, or meet the locals in the town of Gandara, a 14-minute drive away. From Ani Villas, it’s a 14 km drive to Mawella Lagoon Airport and a 89 km drive to Mattala International Airport.
