Sisindu C
Sisindu C is a beautiful villa situated on the picturesque coast — 10 kms from Galle.
Newly constructed superbly equipped, Sisindu C offers flexible, stylish and relaxed holiday accommodation, comprising a huge living/dining room with open plan kitchen, and large chill-out sofas. There is also a shower, loo and changing room, and separate drying room, with washing machine and linen cupboards.
Immediately outside the living room, there is a veranda leading out to a swimming pool, beyond which there is a lawned garden with restful ambalama, swaying, statuesque palm trees and the Ocean.
Upstairs there are two large bedrooms with en-suite shower rooms. These are air-conditioned, or you might simply enjoy the sea breezes. Outside the bedrooms there is a wide veranda for sun-bathing, leisurely breakfasts or simply nursing a drink and a book and staring out at the Indian Ocean where the next land fall is Antarctica.
Historic Galle Fort one of the best preserved Dutch forts in Asia a UNESCO World Heritage site is 10 kms away and is studded with architectural magnificence, and a host of well stocked jewellery and souvenir shops, as well as the famous Aman Galle or New Oriental Hotel as it was formerly. In Galle itself there are the Sun and Dutch House hotels and the renowned test cricket ground, and along the coast a number of beach front hotels and restaurants.
In Unawatuna there is a wonderful crescent shaped beach studded with cafes, bars and shops, and the PADI certified dive centre. Surfing can be found all along the coast especially at Hikkaduwa, Mirissa (also whale watching in season) and Weligama, the location of the celebrated Taprobane Island.
Immediately next to Sisindu C there is a turtle hatchery, and short walk away are a number of beach bars.
There is a vast wealth of things to do, breath-taking sights to see, and wildly varying topography which makes doing the island justice in a short space of time almost impossible.
