A Living Sanctuary
True luxury here is found in peace, authenticity, privacy, and connection with nature. BlackRoots does not overpower the landscape. It allows architecture, water, greenery, and wildlife to coexist naturally.
BlackRoots Unawatuna
The Story of BlackRoots
BlackRoots Unawatuna was born from a vision to restore nature while creating meaningful luxury experiences.
Introduction
From abandoned limestone quarry to living wetland sanctuary.
Set within a transformed limestone quarry, the property now flourishes as a sanctuary designed to heal both the environment and the traveler. The atmosphere is grounded in privacy, architecture, wellness, and a deep relationship with the land.
Architecture that touches the earth lightly.
Elevated structures
