Teardrop Hotels recently announced the opening of Kalkudah Beach House, an intimate beachfront sanctuary on Sri Lanka’s untouched East Coast. Tucked within a secluded coconut estate, this five-bedroom retreat is the newest addition in Teardrop’s growing portfolio of hotels and villas. Designed to soak in breathtaking ocean views, offering barefoot luxury, and total seclusion, these five bedrooms are split between two beautiful villas – The Main House and Palm Villa and share a stunning 22-meter infinity pool.
Design and Sustainability
Kalkudah Beach House’s restored Dutch-style arches create open-plan living spaces that seamlessly connect to a vast coconut estate, with unrestricted access to the swaying palm trees and the Indian Ocean. Interiors feature locally sourced materials and art, handcrafted furnishings, and environmentally conscious design elements to reflect sustainable luxury, including solar power and an on-site water purification plant.
Why the East Coast?
The launch of Kalkudah Beach House signals an exciting moment for Sri Lanka’s evolving tourism landscape. Discover a coastline of clear waters teeming with marine life, pristine golden beaches, and a deep cultural heritage.
