Sein Villa – Private 3BR Escape in Ahangama
Perfect stay for some relaxed and peaceful days in a stylish, clean and lovely villa. We stayed for three nights with our kids and couldnt recommend this gem of a villa enough: Gianluca is a great host: always available & super friendly. Ira is a treasure: also always available and did everything to make our stay even more comfortable. We immediately felt like home and the style and athmosphere in the villa is just amazing. We spent the sunny days at the pool with the beatiful sorroundings. The Villa was very clean and perfectly eqquiped & furnished. See you next time in Ahangama 🙌

Villa Noumi Full Property
Really beautiful villa, great attention to design detail. Service was friendly and helpful and we can recommend the home cooking. The food was delicious!

Moon Villa- 2 bedroom villa
Great place to stay! Lovely garden: lots of living creatures. There is a delivery from a nearby restaurant. The three of us were comfortable! Dogs are a special delight! Thank You!

August Beach House - Weligama
The best thing about August beach house is it's location..sits right on the beach with lots of nice bars, restaurants and surf schools nearby. The staff were very kind and courteous and they keet the place squeaky clean through out our stay.

Stunning Villa in Ahangama, walk to beach
Gads Villa is a truly magical place. The gardens are exquisitely landscaped, and the giant Velvet Apple tree is really a wonder to behold. The pool has a shallow section which is perfect for little ones, or for adults to lounge in. The kitchen is huge and had everything we needed (important when traveling with 4 youngsters!). The bathrooms are likewise huge and very prettily set out. Beds are comfortable and the fans were sufficient to keep us cool at night. The neighborhood is very quiet and safe, a few minutes tuk tuk ride into the main part of town. I personally found it very convenient to have yoga and a little spa within a few minutes walk. Secret Beach is also only a short walk away. Sahan and team were super helpful, and breakfasts were delicious. All in all a fabulous stay.

Remote Nest Cabins - Top Floor
We had an amazing time. The property and room was beautiful and thoughtfully designed - it felt like a little oasis. Our hosts Berni & Prabath were welcoming and very friendly. They gave us recommendations for surfing and how to get around. Overall a really enjoyable stay <3

Vador Villa, a tropical paradise
This villa is something wonderful. All the details are perfect, beautiful and sophisticated. The bedrooms are fantastic, the swimming pool is amazing, the garden itself is a gem. And the staff! The housekeeper Sasun with the other guys, runs the villa in à perfect way: they are available for every request, helpful and incredibly skilled! We had many meals at home and it was definitely better than at the restaurants! The position is really good. You can walk in the nature up to the main road, Matara road, where many small restaurants are, or ask the staff to call a tuk tuk. Galle fort is about 30' away! Stephen the owner, is promptly reacting and helpful. Despite the weather in June, to stay in villa Vador has been an amazing experience and I can't wait to come once again! Thanks to Stephen and the staff for having made my holiday so relaxing!

Hiriketiya Lotus House AC~Fiber WiFi~Kitchen~Pool
We LOVED our stay at Hiriketiya Studios. Nishan was such an incredible host—he went far above and beyond in his hospitality. The place itself is lovely and peaceful with a gorgeous pool and high quality kitchen equipment for cooking. Location wise, it’s in a perfect spot, totally walkable to Hiriketiya or Dickwella beach, cute cafes, big grocery store, and even to snorkeling with turtles.

Afra Hiriketiya - 2 bedrooms & jungle garden
This is a lovely AirBnB, located close to the beach and nearby restaurants. The property is beautifully decorated and was nice and clean on arrival. Beds are comfortable with AC in one bedroom and fans in the other. One thing to note is that the neighbours have 2 dogs who can bark quite a lot when walking up to the house - not the fault of the property just worth being aware so they don’t come as a surprise! Rebecca is very responsive and easy to communicate with. Thanks for a lovely stay!

Sunyata Sri Lanka
Amazing house with incredible views and access to the beach. We loved our stay!

Family Villa in Hiriketiya Beach
We had a great stay at Dor’s beautiful home. It’s perfectly located, just a short walk to the beach and restaurants or a short Tuk Tuk ride to some of the further restaurants. The bathrooms are beautiful, shower head nice and strong. Air conditioning does the trick and the beds are comfortable. There is a nursery with a cot and change table so perfect for us with a 10 month old. Highly recommend you book this space!

Casa Villa Ahangama
We had a wonderful stay at this Airbnb in Sri Lanka and we were a group of 6 people. The property was exactly as described—clean, spacious, and beautifully maintained, with a great pool that made our trip even more relaxing. The location was peaceful and perfect for a getaway. What truly made our experience exceptional was with the host Supun. He was incredibly helpful throughout our stay and went above and beyond when we accidentally left behind a wallet. He not only found it but also arranged to have it couriered back to us—something we’re truly grateful for. Highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Sri Lanka. Great property and an even better host!

A64 Villa – Home Away from Home
The place is really nice and looks just like the photos. Hot water, good A/C, fast wifi, working kettle and gas cooker, and the bed is super comfy. The host organised for my laundry to be done, and was very good at communicating. The only thing I would say is the location is a bit far away from the beach and centre of Weligama, so if you don’t have your own bike, it’s hard to get around, and also hard to get food as there aren’t many places to eat within walking distance. Overall good stay.

henwala hideaway
The dreamiest place with the coolest owners and the kindest staff will absolutely come back stay for a month if I could

Villa Chill Madiha
A great stay by the ocean. I loved going to sleep to the sound of the waves and watching the turtles right out the front. Lots of food and bar options within walking distance. Definitely recommend!

Lemon Villa - 2 bedroom - Madiha
Truly lovely property, which was very relaxing with a lovely garden + pool area. The hosts were great, as was property manager, Isuru. The property was as described and the garden even better than the photos. Hosts gave recommendations + arranged transfers + which were all great, they even recommended properties for a friend to stay at last minute. Check-in was completely hassle free as was contact with the on site manager who was excellent+available whenever messaged and was very responsive to cleaning/maintenance requests. There are lovely restaurants, cafes and beach bars within walking distances, meaning the holiday can be as lively or relaxed as you like. The bakery 2 doors down is fab (and even offers a cooking class which is a must!) A brilliant stay. Thank you - we'd love to come back! x
Private house rentals

Sambol Garden House - with private pool
We had a lovely time at Luca's place. The house has everything you need for a great rest. You will be able to observe the few animals that roam freely in the garden. The pool is a big plus in the heat of Sri Lanka. The house is incredibly clean and the people who work there are very nice. Nimesh will help you with any questions, you can contact them at any time. He took us to change money, showed us where the best places to dine were and organized all the excursions for us. He also took care of our trip and picked us up from the airport. Throughout, we were able to enjoy the wonderful dinners prepared by Nirosha including a great seafood barbecue. The house is very well located: only a short walk to the beach and all restaurants/shops. Feel free to book your stay in this house, it's a real little paradise.

Yunal's Place
We had a very comfortable stay only 5 min walk away from the stunning Hiriketiya beach. Strongly recommend getting breakfast from the hosts it is delicious and authentic for an unbeatable price. Thank you again for the hospitality, we felt very welcome.

Villa 2a (3BR close to the beach)
It was a pleasure to return home to such a nice house. One of the best I've stayed in.
