Hotel Tri

The main house feels creative and fresh with polished wooden columns and recessed lounge beds at the bar, plus views of the shimmering pool. In the dining room or out on the sunny terrace, enjoy Sri Lankan fusion food on handmade crockery. Breakfast is also a treat with the likes of curd ice cream! Ensconced by pockets of trees, you'll find the serene yoga shala and just next door, the library has wide windows and plush furnishings. Decorated in cool, white terrazzo walls and bubbling water features, the spa offers Ayurvedic and more international treatments.

Perhaps Tri's most unusual offering are the Watch Tower Rooms, which are smaller than the suites but have amazing views from the rooftop deck. The villas blend with nature thanks to walls lined with cinnamon wood and the interiors are a cocoon of stylish, muted decor punctuated by pops of yellow. The floors and doors were crafted from recycled jak wood and each villa comes with a king-size bed, bright bathrooms with a deep tub and tons of windows to let in the light. A number of villas also have plunge pools to make the most of your privacy - and we mean private!
