Sheer beauty can sometime emerge out of misfortune. Such is the history of Ridee Villa. The residence on which a boutique guest house now stands, used to be a very successful silversmith crafts-house spanning several generations.
‘Ridee’ in the Sinhala language means silver. The proprietor Sumith Ubesiri has been awarded national accolades for his skill and artistry in design and entrepreneurship.
However, after the Tsunami he lost everything. He then took over two years plotting his dream of establishing a guest house and in the process, designing every in-house fixture, furniture and wall art.
He channelled his design expertise and creativity to establish one of Sri Lanka’s finest boutique guesthouses offering unbridled hospitality.
Minutes away from Unawatuna , one of the best coastlines in the Indian Sub-Continent, Ridee Villas boasts 15 bespoke rooms kitted for guest comfort.
The property is airy, spacious and welcoming. Breakfast is offered to every guest, and tours around the area can be easily arranged.
Ridee Villa; The jewel of Unawatuna welcomes you.. !
