KK Beach is a contemporary 10-room beach hotel in Galle with a spectacular location along Habaraduwa Beach, a fine two-kilometre stretch of sand. Sister hotel to Kahanda Kanda, it offers affordable and stylish ocean-facing suites close to Galle. The interiors are studded with chic design elements and curated local artwork, while ground floor living and dining areas flow seamlessly into the garden.
The nautically hued rooms at KK Beach are cool and calming, and ideal for returning to after activity packed days surfing, whale watching and exploring Galle’s 17th century fort. All rooms offer unblemished views of the Indian Ocean and of the ships plying its distant horizon.
Penthouse Suites are huge, coming with sitting areas, big bathrooms and generous balconies for lounging and dining – the perfect indulgence for honeymooners and families.
Personalised service is a cornerstone of the KK experience, and staff are primed to discreetly help guests relax. Ground floor Bamboo Restaurant serves fresh gourmet cuisine, and in the verdant garden are a 20-metre swimming pool and a deck sprinkled with sun loungers. The hotel also makes a superb events venue for hosting private parties and weddings.
