“A beautiful haven overlooking sparkling seas at Weligama Bay, Eraeliya is made up of six villas — one over a century old. Designed by owner Nyuri, elegant spaces feature antique furnishings, big stone bathtubs, soft textiles and stacks of character. Fabulous fare and sunset poolside cocktails await.”
