ON THE ROCKS
Nestled along the golden shores of Unawatuna, the villa offers a tranquil escape where barefoot luxury meets tropical charm. Wake up to the sound of waves, unwind in our stylish beachfront spaces, and experience the beauty of the island at your own pace. On The Rocks villa is your perfect home by the sea.
Let on an exclusive-use basis, our villa offers the perfect sanctuary for yoga retreats, groups of friends, families, or colleagues seeking a private and inspiring space to unwind and connect. When you stay with us, you have the entire house, expansive lush gardens, and the sparkling outdoor pool all to yourselves—creating an intimate and tranquil environment tailored just for your group.
Start your mornings with peaceful yoga sessions either in the serene garden surrounded by tropical greenery or on the spacious verandah, where the gentle island breeze and soothing sounds of nature help you find calm and clarity. As the day unfolds, spend your afternoons basking in the sun by the pool, diving into a good book, or exploring the pristine nearby beaches with their soft sands and crystal-clear waters.
When evening comes, gather together to share delicious meals or enjoy a relaxed barbecue under the swaying coconut palms. Watch the sky come alive with spectacular sunsets, as laughter and stories fill the air—this is where mindful relaxation blends seamlessly with joyful togetherness, creating unforgettable memories in paradise.
ACCOMMODATION
Our 7-bedroom beachfront villa is thoughtfully designed across two separate buildings, offering both space and privacy for larger groups.
The main house features 3 beautifully appointed bedrooms, along with shared living areas that open out to the verandah, garden, and pool.
An adjoining building houses 4 additional guest rooms, each with its own ensuite bathroom, perfect for families, friends, or work colleagues seeking a mix of connection and retreat.
Located right next door to Bellini Blue, a smaller but equally charming villa, these two properties together create an ideal option for larger groups or multi-family gatherings who want to stay close yet have their own private spaces.
Together, they offer a flexible and spacious layout for group holidays, wellness retreats, or celebrations — ensuring everyone can relax in comfort and style.

things to do
“The villa was outstanding! We had 11 people staying over the 7 bedrooms and everyone had so much space. The property is immaculately maintained and we received great service from the staff. We also had a bbq dinner here on the first night which everyone also loved!
It’s close to Unuwatuna strip without being around the noise/lights. I would highly recommend staying here especially if you have a large group! Wish we could have stayed longer!!”
“This was my first trip to Sri Lanka and it was all the more fantastic thanks to the service and smiles at every step. I hope to be back soon with my friends & family to spend another epic holiday at On The Rocks!”
“My family of four felt at home at once, staff were exceptional with our little girl. House although stylish with beautiful art work was child friendly. Amazing property, amazing staff and an amazing experience!”
