Kadju House

Tucked quietly into a lush hillside above Mawella Bay, Kadju House is a calm and deeply relaxing four-bedroom villa designed for slow mornings, open-air living and easy days by the coast. A short walk from the beach and a few KM from Hiriketiya’s surf cafés and restaurants, the house feels private and grounded in nature while still being close to some of the south coast’s most vibrant spots.
Gentle stone steps lead up through tropical gardens from the parking area, where a small shrine to Ganesh welcomes guests on arrival and immediately sets the tone for the house. There is a softness to Kadju House. Open spaces, natural textures and wide framed views create a sense of stillness throughout.
The villa sleeps up to nine guests across four ensuite, air-conditioned bedrooms. Two spacious king suites are located on the ground floor, each opening onto its own private terrace surrounded by greenery. A third bedroom with three single beds enjoys northerly views towards the jungle, making it ideal for children or friends sharing. Upstairs, the fourth king suite looks out towards the Indian Ocean, catching the changing light and sea breeze throughout the day.
The heart of the house is an open-plan living roof top pavilion that spills directly onto the long swimming pool and timber sun deck. Framed by palms and elevated above the surrounding greenery, it is a space designed for relaxing & entertaining. Long breakfasts prepared by the chef, afternoons by the pool, sunset drinks after the beach, or simply reading in the shade while the house moves quietly around you.
Just three minutes away on foot is a small half-crescent bay with seasonal surf and a peaceful atmosphere that feels far removed from busier stretches of coast. Adjacent lies Mawella Bay, one of the south coast’s longest sandy beaches, ideal for morning walks, beach runs or slow afternoons by the sea.
Kadju House is fully staffed with a dedicated chef, senior steward, housekeeping team and night security, all supported by Eden Villas to ensure a seamless and deeply comfortable stay. Warm, attentive service sits at the heart of the experience here. Meals are tailored around your day, the house is cared for quietly in the background, and everything is designed to help you fully switch off.
For those wanting to explore, Hiriketiya is only a short drive away, offering surf breaks, yoga studios, beach bars and some of the south coast’s best restaurants. Yet returning to Kadju House at the end of the day always feels like returning to calm.
