2 Bedroom Serviced Residences in Dusit Thani, Balapitiya

Some homes just feel easy from the very beginning. That is exactly what I thought when I stepped inside this two bedroom serviced residence at Dusit Thani Beachfront Balapitiya. You open the door and right away the sea is stretched out ahead of you and even on the warmest Sri Lankan afternoon there is that gentle ocean breeze that makes you stop for a second and just listen to the sound of the waves. If you are coming from somewhere busier like Colombo, or even if you already love life on the coast, it honestly feels like you have discovered a quieter side of Sri Lanka that is still close enough to everywhere you want to go.

The living space just drifts from one area to the next so you can relax in the lounge and still see the ocean shifting in the distance. I noticed how the dining space does not feel boxed in, it just kind of blends in with everything else. There is no wasted space here. The kitchen is off to the side but not squashed away. You could really cook here — it almost invites you to try. Maybe you come in first thing and if you stand by the counter the soft morning light catches on the wooden finishes and everything feels calm for a bit. It is not one of those kitchens you never use. Actually it feels like one you would enjoy using, even if it is just for a simple breakfast.

Both bedrooms are set just off the living area, private but never cut off. If you listen closely, you can even hear the hush of the sea at night with your window open a crack. The master bedroom has its own bathroom which makes life easy if you ever have friends or family staying. It is those little touches that stand out. There is no pretentiousness here. Even the bathrooms have that straightforward layout and quiet style that just works. Everywhere you look there are muted colors and real wood details. It does not shout luxury but you can tell Dusit Thani knew exactly what they were doing. It just feels like somewhere you can actually relax.

The terrace is probably going to be your favorite spot. It runs along the whole front of the apartment so it is easy to find your own corner to sit and either have your coffee as the sun comes up or when you want a long evening dinner outside as the air cools off. There is even a private jacuzzi right between the lounge and the outdoor dining space. Most of the time it just feels like you are living right on the sand because the beach is that close. On most afternoons you catch yourself watching the fishing boats out on the water and you lose track of time for a bit. That is honestly the kind of place this is.

And I have to say, Beachfront Balapitiya as a whole is something different for the southern Sri Lankan coastline. You get all the benefits of a full serviced residence by Dusit Thani — the kind of attentive five star service where someone always remembers how you take your coffee and the pool never seems crowded. On some mornings you might want to swim in the rooftop infinity pool or just pick one of the quiet pool decks scattered through the community. If you are staying in you have the spa with its private gardens where you can just let everything slow down for a while. It almost feels more like a boutique resort instead of an apartment block.

You will see families and couples wandering along the residential pathways and sometimes you see kids biking in the evenings. There are four private beaches right here and the beach club vibe is present but never loud. If you get hungry or just want a good coffee, you have fine dining restaurants and cafes right downstairs. It all feels thoughtfully planned but never fussy. That is not always easy to find along the beautiful southern coast of Sri Lanka.

The truth is, whether you want a relaxing second home by the sea or you are looking for a luxury Sri Lankan property investment, these serviced residences at Dusit Thani Beachfront Balapitiya are in a league of their own. Everything just feels a little more peaceful here. The only way to know if it is right for you is to see it in person.
