About us
Situated in the heart of the Matara Fort, this is one of the few properties with typical Dutch architecture still gloriously intact. Collectors House earns its name because its owners are international yet local, and have collected the most eclectic range of artworks, furniture and cultural pieces.
It's as if you are in your very own Gallery!
Rest in luxury, hear the lap of nearby waves, explore the South Coast from this perfect base.

Gracious, spacious, chill out in comfort. Enjoy a pause in time.
Choose from five unique bedroom suites, each private, and self contained, with everything you need for ultimate comfort.
From the large drawing room, salon and terraces, the pool beckons.
Swim, relax on deckchairs or enjoy the shade under mature trees in the garden.
Then there's the dining room where you can discover the secrets of chef Dinith’'s gourmet meals!
Relax upstairs in the library. Under the whirr of cooling fans, sip on a pre-dinner drink and eat local cashew nuts, read fascinating artbooks, and relax to the chanting of young Buddhist monks at the nearby temple.
