This is Sri Lanka's first stilted resort that creates it own wetland system.
25 detached 'dwellings' are set within 23 acres of abandoned paddy fields through which water flows.
The property overlooks Sigriya Rock and consists of four different habitats: Paddy, Marsh, Water and Forest. The resort has a modern Thai/Balinese feel with the emphasis on open spaces and nature.
The paddy and marsh dwellings are on stilts and are split-level. Some of these rooms have plunge pools. All paddy rooms are connected by raised teak walkways across the rice fields. The water dwellings are also on stilts and are split-level. The forest dwellings are not above water but are duplex.
All rooms come with an entertainment system and are appointed to a high standard. The bathrooms are modern with large funky polished concrete baths. All rooms have separate balconies for dining and sunbathing.
