The pool at The Last House sits at the heart of its own courtyard.

Held by the house on three sides, it feels both enclosed and connected to everything around it. Deep verandahs run alongside the water, old tiled roofs frame the sky and the familiar ochre and turquoise of the house appear between palms and tropical planting.

Cinnamon Hill Twin is all about life with the doors open.

Set on the first floor of The Last House, the room opens onto a long covered verandah, looking through the tropical garden towards Mawella Beach beyond. Cane loungers sit beneath the deep tiled roof, catching the breeze while remaining shaded from the Sri Lankan sun.

Step straight from our garden onto the sand.

At The Last House, our private gate opens directly onto Mawella Beach — one of southern Sri Lanka’s most unspoilt stretches of coastline.

No roads. No crowds. Just golden sand and the sound of the Indian Ocean.

Set at the tucked-away southern end of the bay, the beach feels almost entirely your own. Walk along the shore to a handful of relaxed places to eat and drink, or stay where you are and let us arrange a private dinner for you on the sand as the light fades.

Designed as the final work of Geoffrey Bawa, the house sits where architecture and landscape meet effortlessly.
