Your selfies with a jungle, garden and rice paddy backdrop will have friends asking where the stunning, tranquil beauty of Sri Lanka is so close by. Suite3 is a unique private zone, complete with an outdoor bathtub on the first floor terrace surrounded by relaxation zones where you sit at the level of the treetops. It's the perfect place to relax with a glass of bubbles whilst listening to the jungle sounds by day, and the subtle change to evening as the sun sets over the jungle. The space Ancient, local rough-sawn timber flooring, supports the king-sized bed that sometimes appears lost in the overhead sweeping ceiling joists that support the ceiling fan for a cool night's sleep. One of the Villa's premier suites, there is almost no need to leave the room, as a few steps through the verandah-enclosed bathroom carry you to your private terrace. Surrounded by planters overflowing with local plants, and bougainvillea spreading overhead is your own outdoor bathtub and two separate lounging areas. As the sun sets, and the sky lights up with flaming colours, subtle lighting creates a welcoming evening environment. Birds and squirrels settle down for the night as frogs, night owls and crickets commence the subtle, relaxing symphony of the night. Awaken to find a peacock on the terrace, or a monkey barking on a nearby coconut or banana tree, and stare over the 9 Provinces Estate main entrance, the sweeping stairs from the front gate, across the water ponds and lush gardens to the rice paddies beyond. Draw a deep breath for this is truly paradise. Guest access 9 Provinces Estate guests are provided with a luxury private suite. Each suite is part of the eco-friendly fully restored main villa.
