Introduction
Samudra Beach House is a bright and airy three-bedroom beach villa set amidst tropical gardens leading to a pristine stretch of beach. Completed in 2014, this two-bedrom villa was designed by Sri Lankan architect Sumangala Jayatillaka who has created ample spaces to relax and take in the spectacular sea views including a broad verandah overlooking the gardens and sea beyond; living area with plush sofas; and an outdoor dining pavilion by the poolside. The seas fronting the villa are safe for swimming during the season from December to April. Samudra Beach House has an informal feel and is ideal for families. The villa can accommodate up to five guests and is booked as a whole villa.
