Step into the realm of Lunuganga country estate, a place that transcends the ordinary, offering an inspirational, whimsical, and enchanting escape. This estate is not merely a destination; it is a precious window into the brilliant mind of its creator, the renowned architect Geoffrey Bawa. As you settle into the accommodations, you are immersed in Bawa’s visionary world, where carefully considered architectural flourishes unfold, revealing a tapestry of artistic brilliance.

Here, sleep becomes a unique journey through Bawa’s creative lens, inviting you to pause and appreciate the meticulously crafted details that adorn every corner. The expansive 15-acre Lunuganga gardens, a testament to Bawa’s genius nurtured over 40 years, unfold before you. As you wander through this soulful haven, be captivated by leaf-framed lake vistas and the serendipitous beauty that graces every inch of the estate.
