Save to favouritesPrintMailParadise Road - The Villa BentotaThis was Mohotti Walauwa, a colonial-era, plantation villa peeking at the ocean through groves of slender palms. In the 1970s, Geoffrey Bawa, the island’s most celebrated architect, converted the house into a boutique hotel, Sri Lanka’s first. It became a classic – over time, a faded classic, handed from one new owner to another – and when Shanth Fernando took it over in 2008, he endeavoured to upgrade the building (more space, more glamour, more style) without changing its sense of history or diluting its charm. The founder of Paradise Road (the Sri Lankan equivalent of Conran), Shanth has transformed the place into a chic, seaside resort; there are 15 beautiful [r:SL049:rooms and suites], an elegant restaurant, The Villa Café, a series of salons and courtyards (cocktail bar, gallery, library-like lounge), all in monochrome stripes, black shutters on pristine white stucco, gorgeous natural materials in earthy colours (mud, ebony, ivory, silver and stone) and all overlooking the gardens. In two acres of lawns, shaded with coconut and frangipani, there is a long, lean slate-lined pool. The beach is a just a few minutes’ walk away.
