Dining, the Tanderra Way
At Villa Tanderra, dining is more than a meal—it’s a celebration of togetherness and local flavour. Gather around a shared table as our chef presents a vibrant spread of authentic Sri Lankan dishes, from fragrant rice and slow-cooked curries to fresh vegetables and coastal seafood, all prepared with care using locally sourced ingredients. Each meal invites you to taste, share, and savour the true spirit of island hospitality in a relaxed, private villa setting.
To complete your dining experience, our chef delights guests with freshly made, indulgent desserts crafted with the same care and attention as every meal. From tropical fruits and traditional Sri Lankan sweets to comforting homemade treats, each dessert is prepared using quality ingredients and balanced flavours. Light yet satisfying, these sweet finishes are the perfect way to end a shared meal—unhurried, memorable, and made just for you.
Blending luxury with coastal tranquillity, the Ocean Rooms invite you to unwind, rejuvenate, and experience the true essence of Sri Lanka’s southern shores.
