Where Mind Meets Nature at the Edge of a Living Rainforest
RainDrops  Wellness Villa is nestled on the edge of the Sinharaja UNESCO Rainforest, in the village of Mederipitiya, Deniyaya in southern Sri Lanka. Hidden within a valley of tea, pepper and rainforest hills, Rain Drops sits on the former family estate of Dolagahawaththa, a landscape shaped by mountain streams, lush jungle and year-round misty rain.
From here, the rainforest is not a postcard view in the distance - it is your neighbor, your soundtrack and your teacher.
