Secret Garden Villa: A beachfront jungle oasis with yoga, massages, and a shared kitchen in Unawatuna
Accommodation
The villa offers fully air-conditioned Sri Lankan-style guestrooms with private bathrooms featuring bathtubs or showers. Each room includes a dining area, tile flooring, mosquito nets, and a seating area. Guests can choose from cottages, economy twin rooms, king suites, or standard double rooms throughout the property.
Wellness & Activities
A spa and wellness centre at the villa provides back, foot, hand, head, neck, and full body massages upon request. Daily yoga classes are held in a round building set within the garden. The staff can also arrange snorkelling, diving, and windsurfing at the nearby beach.
Dining
Guests have access to a shared kitchen to prepare hot meals or snacks at any time. Breakfast can be served in the room or taken at the on-site restaurant, which offers a menu of local dishes. The breakfast includes fresh bread and jam, and is noted for its quality by past visitors.
Location
Secret Garden Villa is situated 4 km from the historical Galle Fort and Galle Lighthouse along the southern coast. The property is beachfront, directly across the road from Unawatuna beach and its main street. Despite being close to the action, the lush garden keeps the environment quiet and secluded.
Services
The staff provide airport pickup and drop-off, car rental, and shuttle services to nearby destinations. Laundry, ironing, and currency exchange are available to guests during their stay. A tour desk can book excursions, and 24-hour security along with fire extinguishers are in place for safety.
