Location
Max Wadiya is a modern beach villa in large gardens on a beautiful stretch of sandy beach in the West coast village of Ambalangoda. This area is famous for its village folklore and mask making as well as the marine turtles that come to nest on the beach. The journey form Colombo’s International Airport will take approximately three-and-a-quarter hours.
Introduction
“Wadiya” means a beach clearing where fishermen come ashore with their catch, and Max Wadiya fits that description every morning when the simple catamarans come ashore on its sandy beach. This appealing property consists of two villas with a total of five bedrooms, set in an extensive garden scattered with coconut trees and overlooking the turquoise Indian Ocean. The entire villa or just one room can be booked. Interiors are enhanced with vibrant colours and comfortably furnished with Dutch period antiques. The gardens are ideal for kids to play about or for adults to relax in a hammock under a tree or by the poolside. Romantic candlelit dinners can be organized at the edge of the sea. At nightfall, watch the endangered Marine Turtles as they come ashore to nest. Max Wadiya follows a strict nature conservation philosophy and does much to protect the endangered Marine Turtles that occasionally come ashore to nest. The villa owners have taken expert advice and are building a raised hatchery surrounded by wire mesh to protect against monsoon rains and seek to increase survival rates. Max Wadiya is also increasingly moving towards a Green Environment with solar-heated water, a water harvesting system and its own herbal and fruit gardens. Whenever possible, fresh produce is organically grown.
