The Villa
Welcome to the Villa by Contemporary Ceylon!
At the Villa we translate our food heritage and family hospitality into a gourmet escape for travellers. Relax by the pool deck listening to the soundtrack of the swaying palm leaves and crashing waves or enjoy the sun by the beach right outside the property. To complement the listless surroundings, we provide a wholesome and fantastic food experience stemming from the Speldewinde family culinary background.
Come and experience a boutique hospitality service with the comforts of home.

Dining
Food and drink play a pivotal role in Speldewinde family hospitality. In fact, the Contemporary Ceylon brand started as a home chef venture run by Chef Andrew Speldewinde aimed at reinventing Sri Lankan food. At the Villa, guests can enjoy these modern interpretations of Sri Lankan cuisine along with a selection of familiar comfort foods. Our chefs are well versed in both Eastern and Western delicacies and can cater to your preferred palate. The bar offers a well curated drinks menu with a few cocktails crafted with local ingredients and spirits.
Our dinner program features a three-course menu with a mix of both traditional and modern options. The following morning, guests can choose a Western or Sri Lankan breakfast option accompanied by a selection of viennoiserie, preserves and fresh fruit. Rice and curry meals are available with a lot of the selections based on the Speldewinde family's very own Sunday lunch spreads!
Our food ethos is to provide dining experience, hitting the right balance of comfort, satisfaction and innovation. We also strive to keep our produce as local and as sustainable as possible. This includes ties with local fishermen and market vendors, patronising a nearby egg farm, beach foraging and the development of our own herb and vegetable garden on site.
