HANTANA, KANDY, SRI LANKA

A Home Away From Home

WELCOME TO

Alcam Holiday Home

“ALCAM” holiday home in Kandy is set against the breathtaking backdrop of the misty, blue-capped Hantana mountain range, cradling a vast expanse of lush green rainforest.

Its large balconies offer spectacular panoramic views of the Hunnasgiriya and Knuckles mountain ranges, as well as a bird’s-eye view of the city of Kandy.

The home borders 2,750 acres of rainforest, making it an ideal location for nature lovers and a relaxing retreat for our guests.
