Dedduwa Boat House by Jetwing  

On Sri Lanka’s quiet Dedduwa River, just outside Bentota — a riverfront villa set in half an acre of lush foliage. About 80 km south of Colombo International Airport and 70 km from Colombo, this spot feels remote but is easy to reach.

A warm, tranquil hideaway with breathtaking river views and leafy surroundings. Accommodation includes a private villa with two bedrooms, a kitchenette, TV and minibar, plus rooms with air-conditioning, telephone, bathroom and private balconies or terraces. Reception operates with limited hours — guests are asked to provide flight number and estimated arrival time.

On-site restaurant, parking and a safe at reception. In-room perks include air-conditioning, TV, minibar and kitchenette in the villa. Expect river-breeze mornings and a peaceful, nature-forward stay.

Dine at the on-site restaurant for relaxed meals overlooking the river.
