Skylight House - an airy private oasis 5 minutes to the beach!

Hi, I'm Karin, the owner of Skylight House!

5 minutes to a unique sea turtle beach, the house is a delightfully designed airy oasis ideal for cozy friends and family getaways and gatherings. 15 minutes to UNESCO Heritage Site Galle, it's your home base for great explorations around the culturally and wildlife-rich area.

In addition to the three bedrooms - 2 with King-sized beds and daybed sofas, and 1 loft room suitable for kids of any age, all air-conditioned with en-suite bathrooms - there are three main gathering areas in in the house.

The Main Hall features a cathedral-esque ceiling that brings natural light into the dining and sitting area. The adjoining open chef's kitchen welcomes guests to try their hand at making delicious Sri Lankan curries. We can arrange cooking and other classes and experiences!

The Peacocks Lounge at Skylight House is the place to enjoy your morning coffee or sundowners accompanied by verdant views and gentle breezes.

The Pool Garden Oasis is a lush tropical space perfect for lounging or savouring al fresco dining.

Welcome!
The villa is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 3 bathrooms, and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 3 bedrooms. Guests can enjoy a TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a private pool, a washing machine, and a sofa bed.
