NovaNest Properties (Pvt) Ltd Launches Rainbow Apartments in Ratmalana

July, 16, 2026

NovaNest Properties (Pvt) Ltd has officially launched Rainbow Apartments, a new residential development in Ratmalana. The announcement was made at an official launch event held at the Shangri-La Hotel, Colombo, marking the company's latest addition to Sri Lanka's growing apartment market.

The development is designed to cater to homebuyers seeking modern urban living, as well as investors looking for long-term value. Rainbow Apartments is located in Ratmalana, an area of increasing residential interest, and benefits from the suburb’s established social infrastructure, proximity to major transportation links, and accessibility to Colombo.

The project reflects NovaNest Properties' commitment to delivering quality residential developments that combine contemporary design with practical living. Intended to satisfy the evolving lifestyle demands of today's homeowners, Rainbow Apartments features thoughtfully designed living spaces supported by modern amenities. These include two infinity pools, a gym, fully functional workspaces, a mini theatre, stylish cafés, a mini-mart, and a children’s daycare. Additionally, it features a full time medical centre backed by Nawaloka Hospitals PLC Colombo, with a 24-hour ambulance service.

The launch also underlines the rising demand for apartment living, as buyers increasingly seek homes that offer convenience, security, and accessibility, alongside the potential for capital growth.

Commenting on the launch, the Chief Executive Officer of NovaNest Properties (Pvt) Ltd, Mr. Samitha Waidyasekera, said, "Today's buyers are looking beyond square footage. In addition to providing long-term value, they want homes that are close to the places where they work, learn, and spend their time. With that shift in mind, Rainbow Apartments was created to bring together a strategic location, thoughtful design, and quality construction in a way that will continue to meet buyers' needs for years to come. Through our promise of 'Luxury Beyond Expectations,' we are committed to delivering an elevated lifestyle experience that combines comfort, convenience, and modern living. With Rainbow Apartments, we are introducing a new standard of residential living in Ratmalana while creating a community where people genuinely enjoy coming home every day.”

The Head of Brand & Communications of NovaNest Properties (Pvt) Ltd, Mr. Thilina Magalla, said, “A residential launch today is as much about clarity as it is about construction. With Rainbow Apartments, our focus has been on how the project is experienced by prospective buyers, from the way it is presented to the way it connects with their expectations of location, convenience, and long-term value. The communication around this project reflects that change in how people evaluate homes. Further Mr. Thilina stated, that the project forms part of its broader vision to develop residential communities that combine quality construction with customer-focused design, thereby contributing to the continued development of Sri Lanka's urban landscape.
