Experience the beauty of nature with premium Ceylon cinnamon, peaceful forest views, and support our IODR children's education. Enjoy comfortable accommodation at Crystal Villa Weligama with breathtaking ocean views.
Lyn Wood Estate sits along the Weligama–Imaduwa Road in Borala, where the lake sits still in the mornings and the garden does most of the talking. It's the kind of place built for guests who'd rather stay a week than rush through a weekend — though a weekend here works just as well.
Rooms open onto lake or garden views, breakfast is taken slow, and the estate's own restaurant, concierge and shuttle service mean you rarely need to leave unless you want to. Weligama's beaches and surf breaks are a short ride away, whenever you're ready for them.
Borala Lake is as much a wildlife address as a place to stay. Mornings here come with peacocks calling across the garden, monitor lizards along the water's edge, and giant squirrels moving through the canopy — no safari required, just a chair by the window.



Cut and served on request — the estate's own king coconuts, chilled and ready whenever you need a break from the heat.
Borrow a bike and follow the lake road out toward the paddy fields and back roads of Borala — flat, quiet, and easy at any pace.
Discover the finest quality Ceylon cinnamon from our sustainable estate at Borala Lake, Weligama.
Cinnamomum verum — the "true cinnamon" — has grown along Sri Lanka's south coast for centuries, and a stand of it grows right on the estate grounds. What we harvest is processed by hand, the same way it always has been here, and finished into quills fine enough for a guest to take home.
Guests are welcome to walk the cinnamon rows, watch a peeling demonstration, and buy quills or powder straight from the estate — as fresh and traceable as cinnamon gets.
Traditional methods preserving quality and flavor — bark is scraped, rubbed, and hand-rolled into quills the way Weligama's peelers have always done it.
No middlemen, no long supply chain — just cinnamon grown, peeled, and packed a short walk from where you're staying.
Two ways to stay at Lyn Wood Estate — a short reset by the lake, or a longer stay with the rhythm of home.
Arrive Friday, leave Sunday unhurried. Lake views, a proper breakfast, and Weligama's surf and beaches close enough for a half-day trip and back in time for dinner.
For guests working remotely, waiting out a renovation, or simply not in a hurry to leave. Housekeeping, free Wi-Fi throughout, and a concierge who knows the area better than any app.
Every room at Lyn Wood Estate looks out to the lake or the garden — simple, comfortable, and built around views rather than square footage.
26 m²
A queen bed and a sofa bed make this the room for a couple with a child, or two friends splitting a stay. Private bathroom with bidet, garden and lake views, and a small dining area for room service breakfasts.
26 m²
