About the Property
Previously a manor home, The Kandy House is now a stunning eight-bedroom boutique hotel ridden with Sinhalese history and charm. Located 25 minutes from downtown Kandy, guests will find it hard not to relax here whether exploring the landscaped gardens, snacking on the avocado, jackfruit, and papaya trees throughout the property, resting in a double hammock, or taking a refreshing dip in the property’s infinity pool (overlooking picturesque rice paddy fields, no less!). The 200 year-old structure’s character not only lies in its design but the small touches throughout: the Jackwood staircase, modern polished cement bathroom floors, and the colorful rooms that surround the two-story courtyard are the perfect combination of classic Kandyan and Bawa-influenced architecture – all details are sure to please the most discerning traveler.
