Moloko
About
MOLOKO, on Sri Lanka, sits at Galandawatta in Hikkaduwa 80240, on the island's south-western coast. First-time visitors arriving in Hikkaduwa find it within the coastal strip that runs south from Colombo. Its standing among those who have called in rests on a 4 out of 5 average across 83 reviews.
The south-west coast around Hikkaduwa is the driest part of Sri Lanka from December to March, which shapes when the area is busiest. Galle, Bentota, Mirissa and Unawatuna lie along the same coastal route, so the address is straightforward to work into a journey between them. Colombo, Negombo, Kandy and Arugam Bay sit further afield, on other parts of the island.
Sri Lanka was known as Ceylon until 1972 and gained independence in 1948, and ancient cities survive at Anuradhapura and Polonnaruwa. The island occupies the Indian Ocean with a central highland mass and coastal plains all around. Ceylon tea comes from those central highlands, while coconut, sambol and curry leaves flavour the cooking.
The east coast is at its best from May to September, the opposite pattern to the south-west. Ferries and road routes link the coastal towns, making Hikkaduwa reachable from Colombo by the main southern line.
