    This place was built for honourable reasons, once intended to support the local community. It's well explained in a brochure in the villa. I think this is no more the case, maybe the villa was sold to other people?

    Me and my fiancé spent 2 nights at Orchid villa. The room was very clean. The hosts were kind and helpful. They gave us good recommendations for restaurant and we loved it so much that we kept going to the same restaurant for dinner, lunch and breakfast. Location is little bit further from tourist places what gives you a chance to connect with locals and enjoy real Sri Lanka.
