lansiya is being developed as a place where lovers, family, and friends can come together and spend valuable time bonding, playing, and relaxing. lansiya is private and exclusive. The bay has a couple of other exclusive villas, and a small ancient village adjoining it. The beach is considered crowded if there are more than five people on it. The area is still un-spoilt by development, and has an old world charm about it.

Ambience:
The ambience at lansiya is infused with the energy of the sea. The power and vitality of this place, as the waves dash against the rocks, is tremendous. The sunsets are incredible; the rainstorms are wild, and the full moon divine. The garden is an old coconut plantation, now gradually being converted to a gorgeous coastal garden. There is a wide variety of birds, and wild life that roam around the property. From the balcony you can watch birds of prey hunt, watch Mynas fight for bugs on the lawn, and Woodpeckers knock on coconut trees. Hare, peacock, mongoose and iguanas wonder around like they own the place. lansiya is a place to come re-charge your batteries, and feed your soul.

Location:
lansiya is located in the ancient kingdom of Ruhuna, 191km south of Colombo just before a small town called Tangalle. It is a four hour drive from Colombo, or a five hour drive from the airport. It is best to drive down at the crack of dawn.

Features:
lansiya is fully staffed and catered. It has one master suite that can sleep a couple and a child. Another building a small distance away, has two more bedrooms that are suitable for older children and a nanny. The bedrooms have mosquito nets and overhead fans. Dining can be arranged anywhere, even on the beach.

Things to do:
Body surfing and "boogy boarding" is by far the most fun thing to do. Early morning and late afternoon is best for long walks and running on the beach. A soothing massage, with herbal oils, on the balcony is heaven. Casting off the rocks, collecting shells, feeding eels, making sand sculptures, and digging holes on the beach are really fun too. Painting and writing at a desk with a view, or reading a book on the balcony is wonderful too. Day trips and picnics to bird sanctuaries, wild life parks, and a variety of cultural sites are recommended and can be arranged.

Cuisine:
We have versatile cooks at both villas. The menu is customized based on what is in season, and a guest's preference. A questionnaire is forwarded with each confirmed reservation. Not only will you be served delicious food, but you are welcome to learn to prepare your favourite dishes. We book our villas on a full board basis, as we need to stock fresh supplies with each reservation. The day starts with breakfast, then lunch, teatime and cakes, cocktails, and finally dinner by which time you will be in a stupor. We believe in keeping our guests well fed at all times.

Our catch phrase is:
"exercise, eat, drink and be merry"
