Lassana Kanda Villa

Lassana Kanda Villa

Lassana Kanda meaning ‘Beautiful Mountain’ is located in the small village of Heenatigala, and really is paradise perched on a hill!Magnificent in magnitude, and swathed in serenity and style, Lassana Kanda Villa exudes understated opulence. Traditional and respectful in its colonial style – the furniture, art and antiques reflect the thoughtful choices that make this feel like a sophisticated family home.

Encompassing three separate buildings, there is an amazing sense of space to spread out and relax. The main house of the Lassana Kanda Villa has an open plan living and dining area with floor-to-ceiling windows, a beautifully crafted wooden panelled ceiling, comfortable sofas and a lovely long dining table which seats 14. There is also a fully equipped and modern kitchen as well as a TV room with built-in sofa, satellite TV and writing desk. The polished concrete floors keep the ground floor of this villa, feeling cool (with perhaps a little help from the ceiling fans and generous air conditioning units). The elegance of the sweeping staircase creates an extra sense of calm leading up from the spacious sitting room to the beautifully laid out bedrooms. The main house is home to four en-suite bedrooms including a master suite with a four-poster king-size bed and opens onto a vast veranda looking out over the most spectacular view of the pool and jungle. Two four-poster king-size double bedrooms and a twin bedroom make up the other bedrooms. There are safes provided throughout the Lassana Kanda Villa. From the main house guests can access a covered pagoda furnished with a dining table and built-in sofas, set beside the pool. Beneath the pool is a fantastic games room, (equipped with table tennis, satellite TV, games, books, cricket bats and musical instruments), as well as a massage room and gym with treadmill, free weighs, cycling machine, bench and yoga mats. Also located here is a family suite with a four-poster king-size bed, two single beds and adjoining bathroom. Each room looks out through French windows, onto a tranquil landscaped garden, with only the occasional visit from neighbouring monkeys!

The charming terracotta tiled Garden House is a sanctuary of its own. Adorned with turquoise shutters, it has two en-suite bedrooms (a double and a twin), a simple kitchen and a private veranda. It is a great privilege to spend time in this awe-inspiring Lassana Kanda Villa with the bountiful jungle backdrop, a respectful palm tree away!The privacy and calm that come from being situated amidst this tropical canopy make for a phenomenal holiday, reunion, retreat or refuge. We wish you all the best trying to leave!
