Galle
STAY
Lapped by the blindingly blue waters of Habaraduwa’s palm-swathed coast just east of Galle, KK Beach ( ) is a lesson in contemporary cool, with verdant gardens and walls) – bordered by tangerine-toned parasols – is perfect for lounging, while in the airy suites, all is crisp and clean-lined. Balconies afford mesmerising ocean vistas and the thick-cushioned loungers couldn’t be better placed for sundowners. When you’re not sipping muddled lychee drinks at the bar or meandering along the powder-soft sand, there’s a turtle hatchery next door that’s well worth a visit, and Galle’s colourful streets are a mere half hour away by car.
