KK Beach to open in Sri Lanka

KK Beach Hotel & Club, the latest addition to George Cooper’s Kahanda Kanda portfolio, is set to open December 2016 in Habaraduwa, Sri Lanka.

The new beachfront property, just 12km from Galle on the south coast, will feature four air-conditioned suites, all with ocean front views. In keeping with the barefoot luxury and open style of the hotel, the guestrooms will include full length sliding glass panels, affording the guest uninterrupted views of the Indian Ocean, comfortable beds and well-appointed bathrooms. The open-plan ground floor will house a restaurant serving fresh seafood BBQs, traditional Sri Lankan curries and Western dishes with a local twist.

There will also be vibrant artwork from Sri Lankan artists on constant display.

KK Beach builds on the success of KK by George, a lifestyle and homeware boutique, which opened in the historic Galle Fort in March 2016.

Also in the portfolio is Kahanda Kanda, situated on a working tea plantation on the North East shore of Lake Koggola near Galle. The hotel is made up of ten individually designed suites, all with private terrace areas that are full of oriental and Sri Lankan furniture, and a shared infinity pool and raised dining deck, boasting panoramic views over the jungle and Koggala Lake.

In November 2015, the new Hibiscus suite opened with its own private infinity plunge pool and Mediterranean inspired interiors.

Offering the perfect combination of jungle and beach, the new KK Beach and Kahanda Kanda will work in conjunction with each other, with a free shuttle service running between them.
