Private Islands Magazine recently published an interesting article on an exotic island resort in Sri Lanka. This beautiful nation rarely gets the attention it deserves. Often called the pearl of the Indian Ocean Sri Lanka literally means the island of delight.

The article features Taprobane Island, one of Sri Lanka’s most renowned luxury destinations. Located just of the  country’s South Coast, the small, thickly forested island perches 100 metres from the soft mainland beaches. The jewel of Taprobane Island is its octagonal, 5-bedroom stone mansion has spectacular views in every direction.

If you’d like to experience it for yourself, rates start in the off-season at US $7000 per week for the exclusive island rental. To learn more about this beautiful island visit Private Islands Magazine.
