Great — here are highly recommended romantic boutique hotels in Sri Lanka for honeymoons, organized by region with one-line highlights and a source so you can read more or check availability. I’ve chosen a mix of intimate/true-boutique properties and small luxury resorts that are consistently recommended for couples.

South Coast & Beaches

• Cape Weligama (Weligama) — cliff-top villas with private plunge pools, dramatic ocean views and secluded dining options. (HIDMC.com)
• Kahanda Kanda (near Galle) — boutique jungle/plantation villas with individually designed houses, private pools and a quiet, romantic atmosphere close to Galle Fort. (thetravelmakers.ae)
• The Villa Bentota (Bentota) — one of Sri Lanka’s classic boutique houses (Bawa-influenced) on the beach with intimate scale and old‑world charm. (thehotelguru.com)
• Taru Villas / Halcyon Mawella (Tangalle/Mawella) — small, design-led properties on quiet beaches favored for private dinners and relaxed honeymoon stays. (thehotelguru.com)

East & Pasikudah

• Uga Bay / Uga Escapes (Pasikudah/Trincomalee area) — modern beachfront villas, calm shallow waters and private beach options ideal for couples seeking sea and water sports. (greenholidaytravels.com)

Tangalle / South-East Coast

• Anantara Peace Haven Tangalle (Tangalle) — secluded beachfront villas, private dining on the sand and spa/ayurveda for couples. (Although a larger resort, it’s widely recommended for honeymoon privacy and romance.) (HIDMC.com)

Hill Country (misty tea-country romance)

• 98 Acres Resort & Spa (Ella area) — luxury hillside retreat with sweeping tea‑valley views, private deck experiences and intimate villas. (cocolimetravels.com)
• Tea Trails (Hatton / Nuwara Eliya area) — restored colonial tea-planter bungalows offering private, old‑world romance, fireplaces and scenic walks. (greenholidaytravels.com)
• Santani / Santani Wellness Resort (Kandy / hill country wellness) — adults-focused wellness design, plunge pools and private experiences for couples (wellness honeymoon option). (greenholidaytravels.com)

Cultural Triangle / Jungle

• Jetwing Vil Uyana (near Sigiriya) — private overwater bungalows and wetlands setting; excellent for couples who want nature, privacy and cultural excursions. (greenholidaytravels.com)
• Uga Ulagalla (Anuradhapura region) — private villas with plunge pools, lakeside dining and activities (horseback, kayaking) for secluded honeymoon stays. (HIDMC.com)

Unique/boutique hideaways (ultra-intimate)

• Nine Skies (Hill country) — very small, intimate boutique hideaway (few rooms) with outstanding food and views — great for couples wanting privacy. (cocolimetravels.com)

Quick tips for booking a honeymoon in Sri Lanka

• Pick two contrasting bases (for example: 3–4 nights in the hill country such as Tea Trails or 98 Acres, then 4–5 nights at a beach boutique like Cape Weligama or Kahanda Kanda) — this gives both scenic variety and romance. (greenholidaytravels.com)
• Ask hotels for honeymoon packages or private experiences (candlelit beach dinners, private boat/sunset cruises, in‑room spa treatments) when you book — those are commonly available and make a stay feel special. (teardrop-hotels.com)
• For peak privacy and calm seas on the east coast, consider Pasikudah or Trincomalee in the northeast (best during the Southwest monsoon months). For the south coast and Galle region choose the dry season (November–April). (If you want specific date advice for your trip dates, I can check exact weather/season windows.)

If you’d like, I can:

• Narrow these to a shortlist by budget (luxury vs mid-range vs small-budget boutique),
• Check rates and availability for specific dates, or
• Suggest a 10–12 day honeymoon itinerary (which hotels to combine and how long to stay in each place).
