Company info

Edwards Collection is a luxury Hotels and Villas chain, with properties strategically located in key locations across Sri Lanka - this enables us to give you a superb cultural and cuisine experience that is an amalgamation of Portuguese, Dutch, British, Indian, Arab, and Malay influences.

Property info

The villa's history dates back 300 years; when Sri Lanka was the world’s only source of prime-quality cinnamon, a Dutch spice trader built a jewel of a house within the fortified port city of Galle. Recently restored by Rohan Aluwihara, a protégé of the renowned Sri Lankan architect Geoffrey Bawa, the Three bed-roomed, fully air conditioned, Thambili House is today a haven of comfort, privacy and refinement for discriminating visitors. This two-storied, spice merchant’s house is designed with uneven walls and cut cement flooring. Interiors are tastefully decorated with 16th, 17th and 18th Century Genuine Antique Ebony and Calamander Furniture and contemporary local art.

Neighborhood info

Thambili house is set right next to the Fort Rampart, and a few yards from the 300-year-old Masjid Meera Jumma Mosque and the Famous Galle Fort Light House. The location makes it one of the rare properties in the Galle Fort which overlook the picturesque southern Indian Ocean.
