A peaceful place to rest

Simple, comfortable, and open to the landscape

Welikande sits within a twelve-acre private estate in Sri Lanka's Knuckles Mountain Range. Waking up here means birdsong, mountain air, and Victoria Lake catching the light below. The rooms are comfortable and simple, designed to keep you connected to the landscape rather than sealed off from it. Every room is private, every stay is all-inclusive, and the pace is entirely yours.

01
Every room is en suite
A private bathroom, with complimentary Ayurvedic soap and shampoo, and a one-of-a-kind painting by a local artist on the wall.
02
Cool mountain air, no air conditioning
Up here it is not needed. Windows open onto forest, mountain or lake, and the nights are cool enough for a blanket.
03
Choose a type, we choose the room
You book a room type. On arrival we give you the best room of that type for your stay, so the numbers stay in our booking system, where they belong.
04
Nothing added at the end
Meals, both classes, the daily activity, tea and coffee and wifi are in the rate. Only the airport transfer is added, and only if you ask for it.
