Overview
Nestled in a tranquil tropical setting, Pitiduwa House invites you to experience the charm of a converted colonial plantation house. Step through the large wooden gates into a lush garden that leads to the villa, perfectly positioned in front of expansive rice paddy fields. Inside, high wooden ceilings, king trusses, and terra cotta tiles create an atmosphere of timeless elegance, complemented by antique doors, windows, and carefully selected collectables. The five-bedroom villa offers a variety of configurations, with four suites in the main house and a fifth suite set apart in the garden for extra privacy.
Outside, the expansive garden features an infinity pool that seems to flow seamlessly into the verdant rice paddy fields. Surrounded by lush greenery and swaying palm trees, the pool deck offers the perfect spot to relax and take in the changing hues of the rice. A dedicated team, including a skilled chef, ensures every moment is effortless, so you can truly unwind in this idyllic escape.
