Behind a small gate in Bentota exists a place that was never planned as a business plan, investor project, or copy of another hotel.
It started with an empty piece of land, too many ideas, recycled treasures from junkyards, handmade details, tropical heat, mistakes, experiments, and the stubborn belief that places can still have soul.

Today that little dream became Red Coconut Villa 🌴
Only three rooms hidden in a tropical garden.
A long pool reflecting palm trees and monsoon skies.
Breakfasts that are never exactly the same twice.

Dogs sleeping in the shade.
The sound of the ocean nearby.
And evenings at 7 Tables Restaurant where every plate is prepared one by one by Chef T. C. Aruna de Silva.
No buffet trays.
No package tourism.
No hotel chain standards.

Just a place created slowly over years by people who love design, food, storytelling, travel, music, nature, and the beauty of things that feel personal.

Sometimes guests arrive for one night and end up staying a week.

Sometimes strangers leave as friends.
Sometimes a dinner turns into a five hour conversation.
And sometimes we still stand here at night looking around thinking:

“How did this little crazy dream actually become real?”
To everyone who visited us, recommended us, wrote a review, shared a story, posted a photo, or simply spoke kindly about us somewhere in the world — thank you.
Small independent places survive because people feel something and decide to tell somebody else about it.
That means everything to us 🌴

We had an unforgettable stay at this extraordinary guesthouse in Bentota 🌴. The atmosphere is authentic and unique – perfect for relaxing and feeling at home. Aruna is an amazing chef 👨‍🍳: every breakfast was delicious, and the dinners were a true highlight, from fresh ingredients to fine sushi 🍣.

We even celebrated our wedding anniversary here 💕 – the team surprised us with a wonderful decoration made entirely of rice grains. Such a thoughtful and touching gesture that made the evening absolutely unforgettable.

The swimming pool invites you to unwind, and the overall ambiance is simply beautiful. Truly a special place to experience in Sri Lanka 🇱🇰!

Tonight at 7 Tables, Bentota

Still looking for dinner tonight? Follow the garden lights and find what guests call “a hidden gem in Bentota” — a place where “every plate is a work of art” and dinner feels more like a little escape.

Fresh seafood, sushi, pasta, surprise menus and Chef Aruna cooking with passion, detail and flavour. One guest said: “Ask the chef what he wants to cook — you won’t regret it.”

Hidden in the tropical garden of Red Coconut Villa, 7 Tables is reservation-only, personal, relaxed and full of atmosphere — “quite possibly the best meal we had during our entire trip through Sri Lanka.”

Tonight in Bentota:
good food, good wine, garden vibes, warm hosts — and maybe even a little table tennis.
