Villa holiday rentals in Southern Province

We had a fantastic stay at Dilinis house. Hiran, her husband, took care of us the whole time and gave us some helpful tips (Secret Beach, Polhana Beach). We also had two nice sport massage sessions from him. The house is really big and due to the A/C in every bedroom we had cool nights. Our kids loved the two electrical cars, provided by the family. We can highly recommend this accommodation.

Our stay was wonderful! We went for a short vacation for my birthday. Me and my friends had a great time here. The property was so calming and peaceful. The place was more than true to the photos. It was beautiful to the naked eye. A highlight of our trip is that the staff were so kind and service was excellent. We definitely recommend it to anyone who is looking for a getaway and wants to be immersed in nature.

We came in a group of 4 friends. Never seen such spacious villa. Comes with 3 bedrooms (two located on top and one at the ground floor). Spiral Staircase might be difficult for elderly. First thing that I must praise is the housekeeper, his name is Lakshan and he’s the most attentive boy ever. He’s always ready to assist. He helps to cook and reheat too. Theres ample of place for us to chill. From the living hall to the kitchen to the outdoor seats we basically fully utilized the space. The only downside is that it’s a little far from the Main Street coz the small lane seems quiet at night but it’s convenient to order food via apps so we never had to walk out. By the way; we arent pet lovers but the two doggies are sooooooooo well behaved.

Soul House was a great find, being close enough to the beach and town in Ahangama but also sufficiently removed in a very green and peaceful neighbourhood that also included other walkable dining options. The team on site led by Himasha were very helpful with all our requests. As a relatively large group of nine the villa was still big enough with the master bedroom large enough to sleep upto four, despite being a four-bedroom villa.

Super mooie en nieuwe villa, op loopafstand van het centrum van mirissa. Het is het meest luxe verblijf waar we tijdens onze reis hebben gezeten. Het was ontzettend schoon en het privé zwembad was top! Je hebt zelfs een buiten toilet en douche. Daarnaast is er altijd iemand aanwezig als je vragen hebt. Wij zaten er met zn tweeën, maar je kan er met twee stellen verblijven, waarbij je ook nog genoeg privacy hebt. Ik kan het zeker aanraden.

Nous avons passé un séjour incroyable avec nos 2 enfants. Le jardin est magnifique et la piscine avec la vue sur les champs et la vie sauvage nous manquent déjà. Il y a toujours un nouvel animal à voir. La maison est jolie et bien aménagé. L'un des plus beaux logement que j'ai vu de tout mes voyages.

The Green House is a wonderful private villa within walking distance (2 minutes) of Mawella Beach. The villa had all the amenities we needed (including a washing machine and well equipped kitchen) and the staff were friendly and helpful. The villa is family friendly and has lots of indoor and outdoor places to relax. The games cupboard and book drawer were a big hit as well as the boogie/body boards. There's a small village shop very close by and the Halcyon hotel serves good coffee and food if you want to dine out. Tangalle is roughly 15 minutes by Tuk Tuk. Highly recommend and would stay again.

Stop scrolling through the reviews and just book this stay already! Everything about the Temple House was fantastic - from the decor to the amenities to the constantly cleaned pool to the villa manager and staff availability and helpfulness. Communication with Jo was a breeze. Jo was proactive and provided all the information we needed. The chef that we shared with another villa made amazing vegetarian food for our party of 4 adults. Nish the villa manager went out of his way to make us comfortable. Shashi was super duper helpful, making breakfast for all of us and staying with my grandma and infant to ensure their comfort when the rest of us were out exploring. The place was spic and span thanks to Ashanti cleaning the indoor area and the uncle outside cleaning the yard and pool. There was a short period of power outage that was handled well by Jo and the team. They had USB/ battery powered lights and fans that allowed us - especially my infant - to feel comfortable. Loved it!!!

We loved Tai’s place. The house is beautiful, and both Tai and all of the staff were extremely accommodating. We had beautiful meals and loved the pool and garden in particular.

Our stay at The Dragonfly Villa was nothing short of amazing. From the moment we arrived, we were wrapped in a sense of calm and beauty that only a place like this can offer. The villa is simply breathtaking — elegantly designed with stunning details, lush surroundings, and peaceful spaces that made it a true escape. A standout highlight was the exceptional cuisine lovingly prepared by Nayana. Each dish she created was bursting with flavour — fresh, comforting, and unforgettable. Every mealtime became a moment we looked forward to. Equally wonderful was the gracious hospitality of Ushan, who was always there with a warm smile, ready to assist with anything we needed - reservations, recommendations, or simply answering our many questions with patience and kindness. His presence made everything smooth and enjoyable. The Dragonfly Villa exceeded all expectations. Every person we encountered went out of their way to make our family trip very special. We left feeling so lucky and grateful

This is a fantastic house located inside the walls of the fort with a beatiful view of the waves and sunsets. The house is completely renovated to a very high standard and is kept spotlessly clean by Nissanka and Dammika. They were always at hand when we needed anything and also cooked up excellent western style or sri lankan style breakfast. There is even a pool in the livingroom. A serene place, and yet lots of restaurants and attractions just metres from the gated door. Very impressive place and also very easy to communicate with Colleen, the owner of the property.

Unsere Familie hat einen ganzen Monat in dieser wunderbaren Airbnb-Unterkunft verbracht, und es war einfach hervorragend. Besonders hervorzuheben ist der herausragende Service von Villa-Manager Suresh und seiner unermüdlichen Unterstützung durch Manel. Sie haben wirklich alles getan, um unseren Aufenthalt so angenehm wie möglich zu gestalten. Die Villa selbst war makellos, komfortabel und mit allen Annehmlichkeiten ausgestattet, die wir uns nur wünschen konnten. Die Lage war perfekt, um Ruhe zu genießen und gleichzeitig die Umgebung zu erkunden. Suresh und Manel waren immer zur Stelle, wenn wir Fragen hatten oder Hilfe benötigten, und ihre Freundlichkeit und Professionalität haben unseren Aufenthalt zu einem unvergesslichen Erlebnis gemacht. Sie haben uns nicht nur willkommen geheißen, sondern uns das Gefühl gegeben, zu Hause zu sein. Wir können die Unterkunft wärmstens weiterempfehlen und freuen uns schon jetzt auf unseren nächsten Aufenthalt.

Stunning property, great staff and fabulous food.. couldn’t ask for more.. located a 10 minute walk from ahangama secret beach, Tim’s place is a paradise.. lush green surroundings, peaceful, a massive pool and cheerful, friendly staff… we hope to visit Bayagima again in the near future.. thanks again for hosting us the last night Tim!!!

We just returned from the most unforgettable stay at this stunning private villa in the south of Sri Lanka, and we’re still floating from the experience! We were 3 families with 6 young kids (ages 3 to 8), and this place was pure paradise for all of us. From the moment we booked, the host Sophie was an absolute gem—warm, welcoming, incredibly responsive, and full of helpful tips to make our stay extra smooth. The villa itself? Breathtaking. Think lush gardens, open tropical spaces, beautifully designed rooms, and a serene vibe that instantly makes you feel relaxed and at home. It was spacious enough for our group to feel comfortable and connected, with plenty of areas for the kids to explore and the adults to unwind. And the staff! So friendly, so kind, and so attentive. But the real star of the show was Dias, the private chef, who absolutely blew us away with his who absolutely blew us away with his cooking. If you’re thinking of staying here—do it. This place is magic.

Words cannot describe how perfect our stay was. Sharmini was a fantastic host, even before we got there. She was quick to answer my many questions about the villa, the local area and sharing details of companies that could collect our large party of 12 from the airport. Even calling them on my behalf when they didn't respond to my messages. The photos of the villa don't do it justice. The rooms are all a fantastic size, beds and pillows comfy and the bathrooms are wonderful. The location on the beach was just perfect. We were 3 families with 6 children between 2 and 8 and we all spent our time running from beach to pool l. Idilic. But the standout feature of the villa is the fabulous and dedicated staff. Dilu, Milan and Bandu. Dilu could not do enough for us and was on hand, yet discreet. Milan! Well his cooking is easily the best I've had in Sri Lanka. He cooked breakfast, lunch and dinner for all of us every night catering for us all! Our villa stay was perfect in every way!

We had an amazing stay! We are a family of 6 and we had 10 days in Sri Lanka, finalising with 3 days in this top Summer villa. Having 3 staff at our service was a nice add on and made our stay so much easier! Dimension of the rooms and the view were perfect! Pool was great, meals also and cleaning was spot on.

Surrounded by beautiful trees, lush vegetation and fascinating widlife, this place is the ideal spot for a relaxed, tranquil getaway. We had very poor weather while we were here so didn't get to enjoy the outside space as much as we could have. The best part about this place is Manoj and his team that run the place, we had beautiful cooked breakfasts and seafood lunches while we were here, and Manoj helped us with shopping, transportation around the local area and our ongoing transfer to Colombo. The owner also deserves credit, for being so approachable, easy to contact and proactive in resolving issues.

Just... wow! We felt truely blessed with the opportunity to stay here. The pictures really don't do the view and villa justice, it's a really remarkable find and absolutely stay here if you get the chance. Sonali and her family are wonderful people, who really made the stay. Sonali's cooking was wonderful, lots of dishes each evening that were so tasty and taking the time to go through the menu with us is really thoughtful and made sure we enjoyed everything. Lesley and Ken have truely thought of everything, there's not a single thing missing and nothing to be improved on. We went out easily on tuk tuks to visit surrounding areas, only to return to absolute bliss with a dip in the warm infinity pool. We even took a little boat ride around the lake from the dock at the end of the garden that Sonali organised for us. This place is a true gem, and we felt so lucky to be able to stay here - just try and stop us visting again!

Natuurlijk! Hier is een voorbeeld van een korte en positieve recensie die je kunt gebruiken: --- Wij hebben ontzettend genoten van ons verblijf in de villa! Het vakantiehuis was precies zoals op de foto's: schoon, ruim en sfeervol ingericht. Alles was goed verzorgd en we voelden ons meteen thuis. Een heerlijke plek om tot rust te komen. Zeker een aanrader – we komen graag nog eens terug!

We stayed for 2 nights, and the staff was EXCELLENT!! They were super helpful and friendly and went above and beyond to keep us comfortable. We requested a few meals and the food was exquisite. The overall experience was super amazing. Loved the villa. Definitely recommend this place 💗

Very difficult to put into words how wonderful the villa is. Very easy to find, great welcome, kitchen well stocked. 3 big bedrooms; 2 with outside showers. The housekeepers really make the stay. They prepare breakfast each morning to be eaten outside by the pool. They will also cook dinner if required, which, frankly was the best food we ate in Sri Lanka. The pool is lovely and in shade. In fact I’d say the property and experience is better than described. 10 mins by the gardeners tuk tuk to Mirissa Beach and restaurants. Thank you!

Loved our stay at Villa Sepalika! The location is amazing - an oasis of calm and green with the odd peacock and monkey to add to the tropical holiday! The pool is outstanding and the lawn is great for games (if you can tear yourself away from the beautiful big verandah!). The staff were lovely - they made sure we had everything we needed and the cook was superb! Thank you for a lovely stay and we look forward to the next time!

Wunderschön renovierte Villa direkt an einem einsamen Strand gelegen. Nach hinten raus somit mehr als großartig .Wenn man bis zu Nase in den Pool eintaucht ,verschmilzt dieser mit dem dahinter gelegenen Meer 🤍.Sie liegt aber direkt an einer Straße und wenn man im Garten ist ,hört man dieses auch.(Hat uns aber nicht sonderlich gestört.Bei uns hatte aber ein Geschäft auf der anderen Seite eröffnet und der beschallte uns einen Tag mit vielleicht etwas lauter Musik 🙈) Wir nutzten die Villa am Ende unserer Reise um etwas zu entspannen. Daher ideal für uns gelegen und somit nicht schlimm,dass die Gegend touristisch nicht ganz so erschlossen ist. Morgens wir ein inkludiertes Villa Frühstück angeboten und wir hatten Barbecue und Curry bestellen können. Die Jungs waren immer extrem freundlich und quasi auf „Knopfdruck“für uns da.Sie sprachen zwar kaum Englisch ,dafür war der Manager der Villa ,Sampath,immer per Handy erreichbar und extrem hilfsbereit. Wir können die Villa sehr empfehlen .

Fantastisch huisje 🩵 we huurden dit met 6 en voelden ons volledig thuis! Het huisje ligt aan het strand en heeft een supermooie tuin. Je ziet ook de natuur op zijn best (een pauw kwam drinken, varanen in de tuin). De huis conciërges zijn super lief en maken het beste van de stay. Er is niet veel in de buurt maar we huurden en scooter zodat we thuis konden koken, wat top was !
