Karpaha Sands prides itself as the East Coast of Sri Lanka’s best kept secret. Luxury tented suites are set right on the beach, allowing for ultimate privacy and seclusion as well as the ability to witness the sunrise as soon as you wake up. A former coconut plantation, Karpaha Sands is dotted with art and sculptures, and designed using natural sustainable materials that blend with the environment, making this an idyllic and sophisticated base for your Sri Lankan adventure.

Suites all have comfortable living and sleeping spaces, as well as private indoor bathrooms and outdoor showers with private decks. Look out to sea and watch the local Tamil fishermen in action, or opt for a suite which is especially designed for groups of families and friends where you can relax together in your large private garden.

Go for a morning swim in the ocean or the infinity pool, and then relax with an expert massage or one of the famed Ayurvedic treatments in the spa. For those who’d like to explore the area, discover the Tamil culture as you visit your surroundings by bike, or venture out to sea on a catamaran to see the stunning coastline from a different angle.

The delightful Sri Lankan and European cuisine is made using ingredients freshly grown in the organic gardens, and guests can dine in the elegant sea-view restaurant or delight in meals served on your private terrace. For a completely romantic experience, opt for a private beach barbecue to fully make the most of your beautiful surroundings.
