The Beach House
Details
The pictures do not do this fabulous house justice - when do they ever. But really this house is exceptional. If you are looking for a smart modern house do not come here. But If you are happy with a bit of rustic charm and the odd clothes hook hanging off amidst a spoiling service then this is the house for you.
Conde Nast call it one of the best beach houses in the world and whilst such accolades are rather subjective The Beach House is aptly named.
There are 3 bedrooms in the single storey house and a further two in garden houses on either side. The small kitchen is the domaine of the chef and the cuisine is really delicious. There is something really spoiling about being rescued from a sun lounger by the words ‘ lunch is on the table madam’ having not, until then given it a moments thought.
The emerald pool snakes around palm trees and as such is shaded and cool most of the day providing a welcome break from the heat.
If this charming house, the large garden with sun loungers placed in private locations, and the refreshing pool were not enough it is the beach that makes this beach house, THE beach house.
An almost perfect half moon shape bay extends either side from the private beach gate. A short stroll in the incredibly soft sand takes you to the edge of the ocean as you brace yourself for the fresh temperature of the ocean. But no, the sea is warm. It is the Indian ocean where wetsuits are purely for the confused. Yeeha. Fabulous. Heaven.
Hours of fun are to follow as wave after occasionally large wave propels you to the shore on one of the boogie boards provided by the house. The fun had here is endless, invigorating, sometimes scary, and exhausting. What better mix for a family holiday.

Guestbook
The things that makes this place so special are location, on its own almost private beach, and the staff. They looked after us with such special care, and fed us, at our request on wholly Sri Lankan fare which was superb. If one were to criticise, it could only be to say that shabby is overtaking chic, particularly in the bathroom areas. A coat of paint would work wonders. But what the hell - its still paradise.
