Malabar Hill, Sri Lanka

A 21st-century stay with its toes dipped in history, Malabar Hill is a fine brew of modern comforts and heritage details. This boutique hotel on a jungle-carpeted hilltop comes with a top-notch restaurant, impressive infinity pool and luxuriously appointed villas – so far, so modern. But its antique Rajasthani furniture, palace-worthy architectural flourishes and meticulous service feel fabulously old-fashioned. The slower pace here has a yesteryear charm, too, inviting you to stroll one of the hotel’s nature trails, stretch out on the yoga lawn accompanied by birdsong, or soak up the bucolic views over a long G&T on the terrace.

In Sri Lanka’s southern province, Malabar Hill is in the cinnamon- and rice- growing countryside just north of Weligama, and near enough to the coast to have ocean views from its jungle-covered perch.
