Holiday houses in Boraluhena

Staying at this incredible wooden cottage on Koggala Lake was an absolute dream. From the moment we arrived, the host made us feel incredibly welcome and at home — their warmth and hospitality truly set the tone for the entire stay. A special shoutout to Yohan, whose help and attentiveness were simply amazing and made everything even more seamless. The cottage itself is beautifully constructed, giving off a fantastic homely vibe with stunning views of the lake. The team even torched the gardens for us in the evening, creating a magical, serene atmosphere. The pool was always clean, inviting, and accessible — a perfect spot to unwind whenever we wanted. All our basic needs were thoughtfully and thoroughly taken care of, making the entire experience completely stress-free. If you’re looking for a perfect blend of comfort, nature, and genuine hospitality, this place is an absolute gem. Can’t recommend it enough!

We stayed one night in this beautiful villa before going up to Colombo to the airport. It was the perfect end of our trip! The house is peaceful and quiet with a huge garden. There are squirrels, peacocks, parrots and lots of fruit trees and palms - like a private paradise. The private pool is also amazing. The lovely host gave us a guided tour through the cinnamon plantation and harvesting process, which was very interesting. At all the hosts are the kindest people and make sure your stay is perfect, they also arranged a Tuk to Hikkaduwa which takes around 20min. We would definitely come again! 🌞

The treehouse is an amazing place to stay for exploring the south coast of Sri Lanka. The location is very private and enclosed but still close to the towns of Unawatuna and Galle. The treehouse itself was very clean and had everything we needed to cook and even have a BBQ! The pool was a great size and depth with a cool rope swing. The hosts were very helpful and attentive, with a very friendly doorman. We wish we could have stayed longer as this was the highlight of our trip.

Fantastic accommodation in a great location! They arranged a scooter on arrival and helmets for our small children with no problem at all :) Hiri is a very groovy place, we loved it. The staff were exceptional! Highly recommend smoke and bitters, the best food and cocktails. Mond was super groovy and delicious as was dunis hoppers which is really close. There’s a restaurant very near the villa called seafood resturant and it’s delicious, the best prawn curry and rice. Also utopia was where we spent a lot of time on the beach which was the perfect place for family beach time and surfing, fresh juices and hot chips for fussy kids :)

My family had 5 nights in this delightful house which was a perfect antidote to 10 days of rushing around the island of Sri Lanka. It was so relaxing and greatly benefited from having private staff who dealt with everything we could possible have wanted. There is a private chef who went out of his way to prepare whatever we asked for, 3 meals a day if needed. He only charged us for the ingredients required to prepare those meals which included a range of seafoods (e.g. huge prawns and seer fish), fresh fruit and very tasty Sri Lankan main dishes and deserts - nothing was too much trouble and he should be justly proud of his cooking skills, some of the best meals we tasted on our trip. They happily took us out on the tuk-tuk to local shops and will arrange local tours but we were "toured out" by the time we got there. The pool is fantastic (and huge!) and the grounds are constantly maintained by "Uncle". I cannot say anything but positive things, but do bring the bug sprays!

Anjalee's villa was spectacular, well thought out and immaculate. The landscaping was surreal! The villa came with very kind and attentive staff members and the adorable Mari the dog. Highly recommended and one of the best Airbnb's I have stayed in, without a doubt!

We booked to nights in Deepika’s beach cabanas. A wonderful place where sea turtles swim right outside your window. Unfortunately we ended up staying only one night. Not due to anything wrong with the cabana it was as described. But we were travelling with a 2 year old child and underestimated the heat without an aircon and the loud sounds of the waves crashing in during the night. Deepika was very helpful and helped arrange a transfer from our previous hotel so we could find et easily and check in went smooth.

We had a wonderful stay at Pubudu’s house! The house itself is beautiful, well equipped and is surrounded by a lush garden. Pubudu and his family is very kind and helpful. They gave us recommendations of what to see and do and made our stay memorable. Pubudus mother made us excellent Sri Lankan breakfast and dinner and Pubudus’s brother offered amazing Ayurvedic massage. We can highly recommend Pubudu’s house and would definitely go back!
