Your Exclusive Stay at The Sevana

Imagine a place where the only people you see are the ones you've chosen to spend your time with.

Whether you're celebrating with family, escaping with friends or simply taking time away together, The Sevana offers the rare luxury of having an entire private estate exclusively for your group.

Set within three acres of tropical landscape just a few minutes inland from the coast in Talalla, your days unfold entirely at your own pace. Wake slowly to birdsong, enjoy long breakfasts overlooking the paddy fields, spend the afternoon by the pool or exploring Sri Lanka's southern coastline, before returning for sunset drinks and dinner prepared by your private chef. No schedules. No strangers. Just the people you came to be with.

Thoughtfully designed to encourage both connection and space, The Sevana combines contemporary tropical architecture with natural surroundings and a relaxed sense of openness throughout.

The estate includes five spacious cabana suites, each offering 50 square metres of indoor and outdoor living space. Large glass doors open onto covered verandahs, allowing guests to move easily between inside and out throughout the day. The bathrooms are partially open, with natural materials, soft light and separate vanity areas designed to create a feeling of simplicity and ease. Each suite can accommodate either a king or twin configuration.

At the centre of the estate is the two-level pavilion, where much of daily life naturally unfolds. Downstairs, the restaurant, bar and sunken lounge provide a relaxed setting for long breakfasts, shared dinners and slow evenings together. Food is freshly prepared by your private chef, with a focus on simple, seasonal dishes using locally sourced ingredients. Upstairs, an open-air lounge overlooks the pool and surrounding greenery.

Beyond the pavilion, the pool, gym and outdoor yoga space offer opportunities for both rest and movement, whether you've spent the day at the beach, exploring the surrounding area or simply enjoying the estate itself. If you do choose to venture out, we're happy to help arrange experiences including nearby beaches, wildlife, temples and some of the highlights of Sri Lanka's southern coast.

Dining

Food at The Sevana is prepared fresh, using locally sourced ingredients and produce from our own gardens wherever possible.

Breakfast is served each morning, and your first evening begins with a welcome dinner - a chance to settle in, gather around the table and enjoy your first taste of Sri Lanka together.

If you'd like to dine with us more often during your stay, lunch and dinner can also be arranged. Our chef creates menus completely around your group, taking into account the food you love, how you like to eat and any dietary requirements.

Everything is planned with you before you arrive, so once you're here, there's nothing more to organise.

Breakfast each morning and your first-night welcome dinner are included. Additional dining can be arranged before your stay.
