Redefining the conventional hotel stay through modest luxury and conscientious hospitality.

Koggala Lake, Sri Lanka

Kurulu Bay (Sinhalese for “bird island”) is a private sanctuary built around the existing. Overlooking Sri Lanka’s largest, and one of its most scenic lakes, Koggala Lake, and surrounded by lush greenery, every element has been carefully considered to offer space, privacy and tranquility, with an emphasis on health and wellbeing.

Book a room

Align with nature, immerse yourself
in tranquility and serenity.

14 suites and cottages tucked away on a private jungle estate on the island’s largest natural lake, Koggala Lake.

Spread throughout the undulating landscape exist 14 suites and cottages, each with its own character and architectural style—designed to allow for a sense of intimacy with the surrounding nature.

While the pre-existing Kurulu House merges a 1960 Florida architecture style and tropical Bawa modernism, the contemporary rooms and suites were design by award winning international architects A00.
