Villa Araliya

An intimate garden villa in Dodanduwa, a quieter residential pocket three kilometres south of Hikkaduwa's main reef break, Villa Araliya arranges private-entrance accommodation around an outdoor pool and shaded terrace with views toward the lagoon.

Kitchenette units come with stovetop, toaster, and full tableware, making the property practical for longer stays. On-site water sports cover snorkelling, diving, canoeing, and windsurfing, while the tour desk organises bike tours and hiking routes into the inland wetlands.

The spa offers the full menu from foot and neck work to couples' massage. Hikkaduwa's coral sanctuary and the Dodanduwa lake circuit both sit within cycling distance — rentals are arranged at the front desk.
