Villa Velmarie a boutique hotel beautifully adapted to modern times opened last week in Maggona near the beach will offer guests six exclusive rooms with modern luxury. The family owned hotel is being built on an renovated old colonial property in a coconut estate.

The hotel newly opened on December 6 is located just minutes from the pristine beaches of Southern Sri Lanka, in beautifully nestled in acres of old coconut land.

Spacious living areas and a charming dining verandah that opens out to serene views of the garden and outdoor pool, add distinct charm to this boutique villa. Villa Velmarie offers the best of modern luxury and practicality, co-existing peacefully with old-world colonial charm, with many of its colonial furnishings passed down over generations.

We are also looking to add five more chalets in the future,” said Charith Fernando, Managing Director Villa Velmarie Group. He also said that they have marketed the hotel to Sri Lanakan expatriates and forward booking were every good. “We would also market this to travel agents and tour operators soon,” he added.
