The World Trade Center Colombo and the Havelock City development stand as two of Sri Lanka’s most recognisable pieces of real estate. Pravir Samarasinghe, Chief Executive and Director at Overseas Realty (Ceylon), their developer, sees them as enduring testaments to architectural excellence, long-term value and financial stability.
Now, he says, that same standard is coming to the southern coast with Mireka Seascape, a luxury beachfront development in the coastal town of Dodanduwa.
Echelon sat down with Samarasinghe to learn what the project means for the company and for Sri Lanka’s real estate.
What inspired the creation of Mireka Seascape and how does it reflect the vision of Overseas Realty?
We have always sought to redefine Sri Lanka’s property landscape by delivering projects that stand the test of time, be it through architectural excellence, premium quality or long-term value creation. Mireka Seascape is a continuation of that legacy.
It was inspired by the idea of bringing luxury beachfront living to a tranquil yet connected part of the southern coast, offering residents an escape without isolation. Mireka Seascape is all about luxury coastal resort-style living, where every element, from design to amenities, reflects a deep sense of relaxation, elegance and ease.
Mireka Seascape perfectly embodies our commitment to creating meaningful, world-class spaces in Sri Lanka.
How does Mireka Seascape differ from other real estate developments along Sri Lanka’s southern coast?
Mireka Seascape offers a unique combination of seclusion, sophistication, and seamless service. Nestled in the serene coastal town of Dodanduwa, the development offers a private and tranquil setting while remaining just minutes away from the vibrant tourist hotspots of Galle and Hikkaduwa.
The project has also seen an exceptional market response, with 70% of the inventory sold within just 60 days of launch, even before the commencement of piling.
Designed to blur the line between home and holiday, Mireka Seascape features 168 luxury residences, including 1-, 2-, and 3-bedroom apartments, 2-bedroom suites, 4-bedroom penthouses, and 2- and 3-bedroom luxury villas, all thoughtfully designed with panoramic ocean views.
More than just a beachfront home, it offers an elevated coastal lifestyle tailored for discerning residents and investors alike.
Why was Dodanduwa chosen as the location for the property?
North, South, East, or West, all paths lead to moments of serenity at Dodanduwa.
Close to culture and connected to everything, Mireka Seascape places you at the heart of Sri Lanka’s southern coast.
Located between two tourist hotspots, Galle and Hikkaduwa, Dodanduwa offers a quieter, more pristine beachfront setting. The Dodanduwa shoreline is unpolluted, safe to swim and free from overcrowded beaches.
Just 20 minutes away from the historic charm of Galle and 15 minutes from the vibrant buzz of Hikkaduwa, this coastal enclave benefits from easy access via the Southern Expressway. Kayaking, snorkelling, and boat rides await at the end of a scenic walking trail to Rathgama Lake.
What kind of lifestyle does the property aim to offer its residents?
At Mireka Seascape, every amenity invites you to slow down and savour life.
Spacious, light filled apartments designed with refined finishes and seamless connection to nature. Every penthouse comes with a Jacuzzi, while our luxury villas offer private plunge pools and uninterrupted vistas of the Indian Ocean.
From energising mornings at the gym to slow afternoons by the pool, the amenities are designed for wellness, connection and effortless living. Whether you are seeking stillness or a spark of adventure, every space invites you to live fully, your way.
What are some of the standout features or amenities that residents can expect?
Mireka Seascape has bundled a plethora of amenities and facilities to enhance the luxury coastal resort style living experience. Our aspiration was to create an environment that supports every aspect of elevated living. The apartments are light filled and spacious, with refined finishes and seamless integration between indoor and outdoor spaces.
Our amenities include infinity edge swimming pools for adults and children, a fitness centre, sauna, steam rooms and a yoga deck. Residents can also enjoy the sky lounge, bistro bar, viewing deck and multifunction spaces. For families, there are dedicated indoor and outdoor children’s play areas, while professionals can benefit from a work from home lounge.
Additional conveniences include an on-site convenience store, concierge service, EV charging stations, and dedicated drivers’ quarters.
