Smoking-friendly holiday rentals in Central Province

eranga and his brother is the best host during our entire stay in sri lanka.view from the balcony is beautiful. room and living room is spacious.rooms are clean

We stayed 5 nights at Cecilia Cottage and did not want to leave once our time was up. A beautiful and peaceful apartment that felt homely right away. The host sharmini went above for all our requests and made our stay very special. I can’t wait to visit again. Thank you very much for everything!

We loved staying so close to nature! We spend almost two weeks here. It’s situated right on the edge of the Udawatta sanctuary, so monkeys visited us quite a few times which was nice to see! It’s not far from the city but when we went food shopping we took the tuktuk back and it cost us around 200 LKR. So if you want something private, calm but also walkable to the centre, this is it. Just mind that it’s close to the forrest and not much light goes in through the trees. But on the other hand the temperature in the apartment was nice due to the location. There’s no need for AC but there’s a fan if you need it. The kitchen has some amenities like rice cooker and smoothie maker. But it could maybe use a bit more cutlery like a new wooden spoon, but things like pan and pots were really good. The WiFi was perfect, no problem with that.

It's difficult to find words to explain how amazing our experience in Chamila's place was. We haven't been received as guests, we felt more like a part of the family. Chamila is very hospitable, polite and humble and she, together with the whole family, including Snowy and Scooby, made us feel welcomed, we learned a lot about Sri Lanka, we ate amazing food (!) prepared by her mother and Elena even had a chance to try on one of Chamila's beautiful saris. Not to mention that she helped us to arrange all the trips in the area (and there's much to see - Dambulla is exactly in the middle of the "cultural triangle") and that we received parting gifts which will make us remember the visit when we're back home (we would anyway!). I've been staying in hundreds of places over the years and this is definitely on my personal top three list. If you're reading this, stop looking for different accommodation. You've just found what you wanted and you will never forget this place afterwards.

Bernard è stato molto gentile e disponibile e il posto era bello

Our host couple Indira and Lakshman are very attentive and helpful people whose hospitality comes from the heart. We stayed for six weeks in their beautiful house, which is situated in a lovely garden on a hill in Sirimalwatta. Our flat with kitchen and two bedrooms also has a terrace where we always had our meals as a family of four. We liked it so much that we will be staying here again temporarily on our next visit to Sri Lanka in the autumn. Lakshman also helped my husband a lot with one of his local projects and arranged an appointment for him with the local governor.

Oh I just loved this special place. I slept great and woke up to such a beautiful morning on my balcony. I had a tea while watching nature and taking it all in. The garden is very special and I was able to find such a moment of peace there.

The location was perfect for our needs. the Air-conditioning in the bedrooms was perfect and with windows open in the living room and kitchen it was comfortable we were there for about 17 days and we couldn't have asked for a better stay. but what really stood out and made our experience the best Airbnb stay was the host Lakmal and his family was so helpful, if we had questions or needs he was quick to respond and helpful as possible. he helped organize cooking lessons on Sri Lankan food at my wife's request. when we struggled to find a ride to the train station at 430 am for an early train twice he was able to organize a van for us with 1 days notice. Lakmal maybe the best host we have ever had. we plan to go back several more times to Sri Lanka and when we go we will only go when he has availability. It was good value and had the basics we needed a simple setup functional and tidy. I would highly recommend. my favorite thing was the instant hot water tankless system. great!

The kandy panorama house is beautiful! We stayed there only for one night as a bit of a layover, but it was a great place to stay. Some bedrooms feel like you're in the turret of a castle. Kids loved it ☺️ Chanaka was very responsive as well. The ride up the mountain is about as much fun as you can have in a tuk tuk. Strongly recommend using the recommended driver and tuk tuk (Manoj) as the engine capacity is more than normal 😝

eine sehr nette Familie, ein tolles (zusätzlich zu bezahlendes, aber lohnendes) Frühstück, toll gelegen, zum See 10 Minuten zu Fuß, ruhig

The host and his family are very friendly and helpful. The apartment is spacious, with plenty of room to spread out. There's a pleasant balcony out the back where we enjoyed eating our meals. It's a twenty minute walk into town, or a quick Tuk Tuk ride. Scooter hire is available, and we made use of it to explore Sigiriya and the local area. The neighborhood is peaceful and welcoming.

We had a great stay at Makahouse. The photos don’t do it justice- the place is huge with breathtaking views and lush greenery around. The caretaker looked after us very well and the food was superb! The pool was very refreshing after a day of exploration in Kandy. The communication with the host was excellent. I would definitely recommend this place and stay myself with pleasure!

great location for sri lanka middle part sightseeing. house and swimming pool much bigger than on photos. was better than expected. safe and quiet. Spend really good time. dinner and breakfast possible.

Very nice place not far from the main road. Appartment was clean, spacious with interesting details. Two rooms with huge beds, big living room with dining table and terrace. Our host was very responsive, waited for our arrival and even woke up very early morning to say goodbye. Outstanding thing i liked the most were ,,jungle sounds'' i enjoyed getting asleep with. I recommend!

Staying at Muditha's place was wonderful. The apartment is a little outside of the city center but can easily be reached by Tuktuk. There are a few local markets nearby, we found a grocery store and a local bakery with tasty snacks that can easily be reached by foot. It is surrounded by small temples and lots of greenery, which makes it a good location for peacefull strolls around the neighbourhood. The apartment is very spacious and clean. There is no AC but there are fans in the bedrooms and since the location is a bit higher up, it's not too hot at night. The hosts were very honest and warm people. They gave us privacy but answered within minutes if we ever had a request. They even showed us their garden and let us say hello to the chickens 🥰 They helped us with our every need and even made sure we got on the local bus safely on the day of our departure. I would definitely recommend staying at this place if you are spending a few nights in Kandy!

Lovely hosts, a clean and comfortable room, and a great location. Felt like a home away from home. Would definitely return!

Great place. Great and the host is very responsive.

The flat in Nuwara Eliya was perfect for what we needed: two nights in a clean and spacious apartment. The flat has everything you need to make you feel like home: comfy beds, TV with access to smart tv, great kitchen, fridge, etc. It’s also very close to the Gregory lake and an amazing cafe that we went to for the 2 mornings we were there: Ayurveda Coffee Shop. Communication with Jeni was fine too, although we never met, the arrangements to check in/out were easy and clear.

Wir hatten einen tollen Aufenthalt in der Unterkunft, sie ist wunderschön und liegt am Fluss. Die Wohnung ist sehr schön eingerichtet und wir haben uns sehr wohlgefühlt. Außerdem ist sie sehr groß und sehr gut eingerichtet, es gibt sogar eine Waschmaschine und sehr viele Utensilien für die Küche. Der Gastgeber und der Hausmeister sind sehr nett und hilfsbereit und immer per Handy oder persönlich zu erreichen. Wir haben Tipps für eine Anreise mit dem Bus und weitere Aktivitäten erhalten. Fußläufig gibt es einen Supermarkt und Restaurant.
