Kayaam House
Kayaam House is the exquisite, latest edition to Sri Lankan hotel group, Reverie. It is tucked away on the far southern reaches of Sri Lanka’s coastline, only 20 minutes from the lively town of Tangalle. This region of the Island is, for now, still less visited by the tourist masses and has a distinct, rural charm that still thrives.
Balconies and terraces open out onto lush, palm-fringed grounds where a stunning infinity pool stretches out to golden, Indian Ocean sands that stretch for miles in both directions. The sea here can be a little choppy and busy with unpredictable currents, so always seek the hotel lifeguard’s advice for safe swimming advice.
There are six Ocean Rooms, equipped with a king sized bed or set up as a twin room, or the Palm Suites with an outdoor jacuzzi with good views. For families, there is the Palm Residence (also with a jacuzzi) that can sleep up to four children in a large, dedicated loft area.
The restaurant, with some serious culinary expertise operating in the kitchen, will serve you incredible dishes using the freshest, seasonal produce, very locally sourced. Bandaranaike International Airport is a three hour drive away.
Facilities
Nine rooms, including six Ocean Rooms, and three Palm Suites. The Sanctuary Spa, restaurant, bar, infinity swimming pool, outdoor yoga pavilion, free private parking, garden, communal lounge, airport shuttle service (extra charge).
Optional Activities
Cycling (bicycle tour through the local village), kayak on mangrove-fringed Rekawa Lagoon, Balinese massages in the Sanctuary Spa, yoga classes, the picturesque town of Tangalle is only 20 minutes away, snorkelling, surfing, diving, ancient rock temple of Muliragara.

Our guide was excellent being knowledgeable, interesting, trustworthy and a good travel companion. I would unhesitatingly recommend him to your future clients. Yala was undoubtedly the highlight of the tour and from a wildlife point of view exceeded our expectations. My wife and I have had a thoroughly enjoyable two weeks in Sri Lanka. Everything ran smoothly and there were no major faults. Astounding scenery and wildlife, friendly people and delicious food.
We will certainly consider using Reef and Rainforest again. Thank you for putting together a wonderful itinerary which covered all our needs in the time available. A return visit to see other parts of the island will be on our list!
