Step into the Villa Bentota, an easygoing stay designed by Sri Lankan starchitect Geoffrey Bawa, and you’ll be whisked into his world of tropical modernism: crisp simplicity, with gently swaying coconut palms and open verandas to idle on. A refresh by KK Collection – led by its eccentric British interior designer-cum-hotelier George Cooper – has made Villa Bentota an even more serene sanctum inside the racing heart of Sri Lanka’s southern surf coast. The walls are adorned with George’s favourite pieces from his local artist friends, the menu is built around a contemporary take on provincial classics, and there’s effortless access to the golden sands of Bentota’s Ventura Beach.

  

The Villa Bentota is situated in its namesake town on Sri Lanka’s south western surf coast, 70km from the capital Colombo.
