Villa Serene

Ironically, I liked the location. On the walk from the villa, I saw mongooses and monkeys. In the nearby forest/jungle I saw a scared dog running down the road. When I went into the reservation I saw a bunch of wild pigs. Nearby is a Five Star Hotel which is fantastic. For most of my stay I thought it was a partially built block of flats dominating the skyline. The Grand Kandyan. This hotel is on Lady Gordon's Drive. Nearby is Lady Torrington Road. It only leads to a few houses. The important road to remember is Sri Dhamma Dhassi Mawatha. Coming out of Kandy on the B519 from the centre, you turn right into a small opening after Trinity College (Odean Road). As you go up the hill you will see a large sign saying LONDON BRIDGE. It is a school. A key junction is by another school, AI ICT. You continue until you turn right onto 4th Lane. Villa Serene is at the end of 4th Lane, by which time the road has become narrow. Villa Serene is on the side of a valley on the top of the hill. There are steps leading from near Villa Serene down to the B519 / A9 by a cricket/football ground (Rajan Memorial Public Ground). Close to Lady Torrington Road. There is also access at this point to Sri Dhamma Dhassi Mawatha. My partial explanation of the road may seem long-winded but I am trying to be helpful. Initially, you or your tuk-tuk driver would be well advised to phone Villa Serene.

What was wrong with the location? I only went out once a day into Kandy. I was walking. I used to return in a pool of sweat, my T shirt soaked. I could have asked Mr T to pick me up in his tuk-tuk or any tuk-tuk driver. But I didn't.

Great place for money we pay Good hospitality good care Mr thissa is a good hearted person Will be back again
