Kayaam House Fact Sheet

Within Paradise, Reset and Renew

Here is a space to reset and renew. Kayaam House sits beside the southern coast of our island, along the Tangalle Bay. Tall coconut trees outline the front lawn and alongside the pool. The vast Indian Ocean lays as the backdrop to your home away from home.

Tangalle comprises coves and beaches and remains mostly secluded and undiscovered. Its golden sandy beaches and coconut-fronded coastlines are great for surfing and watching turtles. The area is also home to rich cultural sites including the Rock Temples of Mulkirigala and shrines of Wewurukannala.
