Mount Lavinia Seaside Apartment
The host was awesome he promptly took care of our requests very hospitable, professional, helpful and with a great attitude. The location is good close to the beach also the security personnel were very good always looking out for you. And no disturbances from the other apartments. Grocery and food outlets very close to the apartment. I highly recommend this Airbnb especially because host.

Aquaria 2 Bedroom
I had a wonderful stay at the Airbnb apartment in Aquria, Nawala. The place was spotless, modern, and had everything I needed for a comfortable visit. It’s in a peaceful location but still close to shops and restaurants. The host was friendly and responsive throughout. My only hiccup was with one security guard—short guy with sunglasses—who seemed to forget I was staying there and gave me a bit of a challenge getting in a few times. All part of the adventure, I suppose! Still, I’d definitely recommend this place and would happily stay again. Thanks to Seth and team for everything! 😊

Deep Blue Colombo Seaside Luxury Apartment
For the dehiwala apartment review : The apartment was clean and well presented. We enjoyed watching the sunset each evening from the balconies which all have an ocean view. The location was great, the bedrooms and aircon comfortable and the bathrooms were clean & fresh. The hosts were responsive and flexible giving us a late check-out as there was no booking after us. The assistant organised for check-in and check-in was easy to liaise with.

We had a fantastic stay at Tash’s place. The apartment is beautiful, spacious and has very comfy beds. The view from the balcony is even more impressive in person. We enjoyed sunbathing and using the pool on floor 6. Tash relplied to our messages quickly, was very helpful and left clear and precise check in instruction. She also very kindly allowed us to have a late check out. Thanks so much Tash!😊🙏

This house is a hidden gem in Colombo. It’s very tasteful and well furnished, with an incredible backyard overlooking the water. We didn’t feel like leaving the home. The hosts were very welcoming and helpful. Would definitely recommend!

Kaluganga Holiday Home

Bolgoda Grand - Luxury by the Lake
Very spacious villa with a great view. The pool was amazing.

Minnehaha Bentota
We stayed here for a friend's wedding in Bentota. It was an excellent place to stay and relax following all the events associated with a South Indian wedding. The location was a bit out of the way - our initial Uber there wound up charging us extra because we had to go up a dirt road - but Edward was very accommodating and put us in touch with a few tuk-tuk drivers who took us to and from the different events that were planned. He even drove us to an event himself when we couldn't find a ride. The food was also quite good - every meal had a spread of Sri Lankan dishes cooked from locally sourced ingredients. He shared the proposed menu with us and adjusted it after learning that our party had three vegetarians.

Jayasiri Riverfront Home
The host is enthusiastic.

Private Luxury Villa 007B
We enjoyed the house very much. There are 2 huge rooms available, each of which has large very good air conditioners with outdoor air. On both floors have bathrooms, which has proven to be very convenient. The view from the upper level is breathtaking: the plant variety to the left and right of the property; the river; the adjacent jungle behind it and wonderful sunsets. The property is very private overall, you only see a fishing boat passing by from time to time and the 3 employees (managers, housekeepers and chef) are extremely discreet. The chef of the house is amazing! He conjured us up unique srilankan meals 3x a day - and on request not only Reis&Curry, but that was also the madness! Issues will be resolved immediately by Eric. We took a boat trip along the river from our own jetty and saw crocodiles, monkeys, owls, chameleons, warans, flying and eagles. We highly recommend the place!

Villa by the Lake Bolgoda, Moratuwa - Colombo

Colombo Apartment 2BR/2BA
We had a wonderful stay at this apartment! The space was SUPER clean and well-maintained, and the location was perfect, with easy access to shops/malls and restaurants, clean and quiet neighborhood with high security. The apartment felt cozy and comfortable, just like home away from home. The amenities were excellent. We especially loved that the living room, and bedrooms had all windows, offering plenty of natural light and great view. The kitchen was fully and wonderfully equipped, making it easy to cook our own meals. The owner was also very accommodating and provided us with every necessity, for which we actually didn't had to contact her for anything... What you may need was already there!. Highly recommended!" I must say this was by far the best apartment we stayed in cmb, without any hassle self check in and check out provided. We highly recommend this apartment to ANYONE visiting Colombo! Thank you Dear Anita for the extra special welcome gift and for this lovely experience. 👍
