IF Villa, Nearby Galle, is characterized by space and is very private. Surrounding this magnificent five-bed roomed Dutch Villa in a sweeping sea of green is a two-acre tropical garden with well clipped grassy lawns, swaying palms and scented frangipani trees. Bordering the garden is a stunning strip of beach enhanced by a beautiful coral lagoon that the villa has private access to. Since it offers some of the safest year-round swimming and snorkeling on the south coast, IF Villa is good choice for families with children.

An open courtyard with lotus pond marks the entrance to this stylish colonial villa and leads into a spacious living room and all 5 beautiful bed rooms bordered on three sides by wrap-around pillared verandahs characteristic of a southern walawe or ancestral home. Sumptuously cushioned sofas within the villa and plentiful planters’ chairs on the clay tiled verandah offer the ideal location for both socializing and serenity as you gaze over the swimming pool in the garden to the glittering Indian Ocean beyond.

At IF, life is easy; the villa staff of six tends to your every need so you can enjoy cooling dips in the pool or ocean followed by long, lazy lunches on the sun-drenched terrace overlooking the lagoon. At nightfall indulge in delicious dinners and BBQ’s in the separate Dining Pavilion or at the beach terrace and let the chef take care of your culinary needs. If too much relaxing gets the better of you, the beach is perfect for a stroll while exploration of the historic city of Galle is only a 20-minute drive away.
