Luck Nature Villas: a white two-storey villa with a terracotta roof and tall columns, set in a lawn ringed by palms

A quiet villa in the jungle behind Koggala Beach

Thirteen rooms, a pool and a garden in Habaraduwa, on Sri Lanka’s south coast. Family-run, and booked direct.

You wake to birdsong, not traffic. Tea comes to the balcony, the canopy is at eye level, and the only decision of the morning is the pool or the beach.

Luck Nature Villas is a family-run house in Habaraduwa, between Galle and Koggala. It stands in its own garden at the edge of the jungle: far enough from the coast road to be silent, close enough to walk to the sea.

Koggala Beach: 1.1 km
Turtle hatchery: 700 m
Railway station: 900 m
Galle Fort: 13 km

Everything to do nearby

Aerial view at sunset: the villa among jungle canopy with Koggala lagoon and the ocean on the horizon

The freshwater pool, perfectly still, reflecting palms and a row of striped loungers

The afternoon belongs to the pool

Freshwater, ringed by palms, with loungers and towels laid out. Open every day of the year.

A house built around water

Inside, a koi pond runs the length of the atrium under an open timber roof. White columns, teak balustrades and old things that were kept: this is a Sri Lankan family house, not a hotel block.

Orange and white koi in the blue-tiled pond inside the atrium — The koi pond, at the centre of the house

White columns rising two storeys to a timber gallery above the pond — Two storeys of columns, open to the roof

The upstairs lounge with teak balustrades and cane chairs, open to the garden — The upstairs lounge, for the hot hours

A carved Ganesha statue among palms at the entrance — Ganesha at the door

A brass horn gramophone on a dark wood cabinet in warm evening light — Late light in the hall

The villa lit at dusk and mirrored in the pool under a pink and violet sky

At dusk the pool takes the colour of the sky

Then dinner. The kitchen cooks Sri Lankan rice and curry, seafood from the coast and western plates, made to order and served in the open dining hall.

Eating at the villa

Rice and curry: white rice with dhal, chicken curry, sambol and fruit in small bowls

The pool glowing blue at night with the villa lit behind it

Then it goes quiet

Guests write about the silence, a new and spacious house, a kind team, and the feeling of having the jungle to themselves.
