Hotel Overview

Sense of Place

Kahanda Kanda is near Koggala Lake, a 20-minute drive inland from Galle, on Sri Lanka’s south coast.

Rooms at Kahanda Kanda

The gorgeous villas all have their own veranda, and share views of the tea estate, the tropical gardens and Koggala Lake. They are spacious and extensively furnished, with a mix of eye-catching antiques and contemporary pieces. If you’re on your honeymoon, pick Dubu, a secluded antique Javanese joglo-for-two amidst tea-edged gardens, which comes with its own pool.

Food & Drink

In-the-know locals rate Kahanda Kanda’s restaurant as one of Galle’s best, and its heady menu of inventive fusion meals, Thai-infused dishes and delicious Sri Lankan cuisine is crafted from fresh estate-grown produce. Menus vary daily and mealtimes are at your discretion; opt for a simple lunch beside the pool or a romantic three-course candlelit garden affair for dinner.

Facilities

Indulge in spa treatments, take a dip in the gorgeous pool, have a workout in the gym, and enjoy Sri Lankan cookery lessons and tours of the estate. 

Activities at Kahanda Kanda

Take a guided bicycle tour through Galle’s inland hinterland or enjoy a trip on a punt atop Koggala’s jungle-clad lagoon. Meanwhile, the region’s beaches and Galle’s historic Dutch-built fort are only a 20-minute drive away.
