When you are deeply in love, life becomes a never-ending and highly satisfying adventure.

Is there a magical land where fairies prance around and dreams come true? Looks like we found a magical place that can only be seen in story books.

We visited the Palmstone Retreat in the month of September, 2019. Overlooking a river, the property houses 6 private villas. After entering the luxurious yet private property, we were enthralled by the scenic view.

With 5 star amenities and total comfort, the resort offered us an insanely private setting to relive our honeymoon phase. Couples should work on the spark every single day, and traveling allows you to keep the magic alive!

The Location

Palm Stone Retreat is located in Kitulgala, Sri Lanka. Surrounded by a lush green rainforest, the property overlooks a river and the majestic waterfall is a 20 minutes walk.

Couples can enjoy dipping their feet in the clear waters. Indulging in deep conversations and stealing a long kiss comes naturally! Enjoy being close to nature and not caring about the world staring at you!

It was just me, my charming hubby and the sound of the river flowing. If you wish to experience the true beauty of nature, this property is worth a visit.

The Unforgettable Hiking Tour to Water Fall

There is no doubt that the stay was comfortable, romantic and surreal, but there was some adventurous element too! Mr. J Kumar took us for a 30-minute hike.

Such a humble and gracious man! We enjoyed this adventurous trek and witnessed everything that Mother Nature has to offer in the name of beauty!

Luxurious Villas with Ample of Space and Natural Light

We stayed in the Araliya suite that consists of a steam sauna and a private pool. Although we enjoyed the outdoor pool, but the facilities in the room allowed us to have a super private moment.

The suite is spread across 800 sq ft. We were able to utilize the space and enjoyed the natural light that entered the room. Mornings were fresh and waking up next to the one you love is a blessing.

We were impressed with the overall architecture and the interiors of the suite. It has been beautifully designed! After the steam and sauna session, we were looking forward to step into our very own pool.

Take a Dip In Your Private Plunge Pool

We enjoyed spending time in the clean and beautiful plunge pool that was attached to our villa. We could share a private moment which seems impossible anywhere else! The plunge pool is heated and one can enjoy a dip in it all through the year. Palm Stone Retreat is all about giving privacy and space to spend quality time with your partner.

In a nutshell, our stay was magical. It was a luxurious, peaceful and private property where we could fall in love YET AGAIN. Even though we are back from the satisfying vacation, the heart wants more. We will be back with another experience soon!

Till then, keep following our journey and plan a romantic vacation with your partner.
