Taprobane Island 5 Stars
"A boutique hotel for private hire; imaginative, elegant and airy, it's like stepping into a colonial novel."
Hotel Overview
Taprobane Island was originally built in the 1920's by the romantically named but self styled Count de Mauny-Talvande. The luxury resort, with its neo palladian mansion, has played host to kings, queens, presidents, prime ministers, aristocracy, writers and eccentrics, giving it a very colourful history, which guests can now share.
The facilities
The island comprises two-and-a-half acres of sheer tropical fantasy with nothing between it and the South Pole. Accommodation is provided for in five en-suite bedrooms, with spacious living areas, balconies, verandahs, tropical gardens and a stunning infinity pool. A staff of five cater for your every need; in fact after arrival, guests frequently never leave this luxury resort until their departure.
