Bed and breakfast holiday rentals in Sri Lanka

Hareesz was very friendly and helpful. Everything was to our satisfaction. The house is situated near the lake in a quiet environment. It is only about a 10 minutes walk to the town center. There are restaurants nearby. I would immediately go there again if I am visiting Kandy.

We stayed at Grace Green Ville Homestay for 6 days and had a truly memorable experience. The home was spotless, peaceful, and beautifully maintained, with a lovely garden that made it even more relaxing. Renuka was an incredible host, kind, thoughtful, and always attentive. Her homemade food was absolutely delicious, and she took such care in preparing each meal. One day, after a casual conversation about our favorite desserts, she surprised us by making it from scratch, it was such a touching and thoughtful gesture. She constantly checked in to make sure we were comfortable, and we shared some warm and meaningful conversations during our stay. Her hospitality made us feel completely at home, and her kindness left a lasting impression on all of us. We couldn’t have asked for a better host. Thank you, Renuka, for everything, you made our stay truly special!

The property is spacious , green and airy. Two big beaches (Kalkudah and Passikudah ) are just 200 metres away in opposite directions to each other. The host ,Mr,Arul, and his wife ,Usha, made us feel right at home. The breakfast was complimentary . It was vast, very delcious and had variety. We also opted for dinner at the Arul's property as it was so good. Seafood curries ( Fish and prawn curries) were made in heaven and the variety of vegetables offered was great! Here all the guests are offered welcome drink on arrival. Water dispenser is provided for all the guests so there is no need to buy plastic water bottles. Laundry services provided . A/C in every cottage but we rarely used it as cool sea breeze keeps the room walls cool. We had a great time.

Madu’s place was fantastic—peaceful, quiet, and perfect for a relaxing stay. The house is fully private, with its own kitchen and bathroom, offering great comfort and independence. The host, Madu, is incredibly communicative and helpful. Whether you have questions or need assistance, he’s always reachable, either in person or via phone. One thing to keep in mind: if you want to be close to the city center, it’s about a 20–30 minute walk, as the house is situated near the second river up north. However, this also means you get to enjoy a quiet, secluded space with almost no neighbours. (bonus: you get to see some fireflies at night) If you have a scooter, getting around won’t be an issue at all!

Really nice place, the host is very friendly and hospitality. You can rent a bike here, It is very convenience for tourism.

Super nice place, hosts are very friendly. Bit of a jungle vibe

The hostess is very friendly, she made us feel very welcome and the room was amazing 😁

It was a beautiful stay, we could feel very home and without reservation although living in the same house with the host family (in separate Appartement of course). The Family is very very friendly and the dogs lovely and quite. We got delicious breakfast and dinner delivered to our balcony. The garden at the lake is beautiful and we felt peace to wake up with this view. We slept with open doors and fresh air and it was very quite. Everything is possible to get (dinner, scooter rental, massage, beer, airport shuttle, excursions) so it is a great service. We also especially liked that we don‘t have the feeling to have to pay for every small thing like at other places, here the kayaks, bikes and Breakfast are included in the price/for free. The neighbourhood is nice and safe. Thanks for the great stay and hospitality- we are so happyto have found this places for last enjoyable days of our vacation!

Sri Mathie was the perfect getaway property for us and Guy was such an amazing host. It is nestled in the jungle with beautiful flora and fauna all around the property. Wonderful architecture, art, and open spaces make it a unique stay. Lots of things to do close by and with Guy's help everything was accessible. Also relaxing and peaceful just to stay on the property and enjoy everything it has to offer. Guy really made the stay extra special, the hospitality we were shown was so nice. Amazing meals filled with intention, wonderful conversation, perfect amount of privacy while feeling taken care of, cant say enough good things!

Getting to the place was really adventurous. But it is worth every meter to get to this fantastic place. At night you have the sounds of the jungle and fireflies around you. I have rarely seen such a beautiful thing. In addition, the place is super nice and the whole team is absolutely eager and helpful

We loved our stay here! Great location and huge room! The ladies who cooked breakfast each morning were also lovely! Would recommend staying here is you come to Weligama!

The host was so wholesome and made the experience truly unforgettable. Top tier as far as a human goes unfortunately couldn’t stay longer. Till next time Shehan! You really made this place special.

If you are lucky enough to find a free slot then don’t walk, but run to book it! This place is really cool! It was our first time and the first stay within our Sri Lanka experience and it was perfect. Of course it is a little bit more pricy than other ones but we thought it is totally worth it. Calm area but close to nice (& lonely) beaches. We did a lot per foot but you can also take tuktuks. The little “climb” up to the villa was totally okay for us and it rewards you with perfect views. All recommendations were perfect (restaurants, guides, driver) We would come back or recommend to friends 100%! Thank you Nipuni & Wasana for the delicious breakfast (milk rice ❤️) and thank you Dinidu for the recommendations and Pathum for driving safe & more on time than any German will ever be! Only two small things we would possibly change: mosquito net for the rooms and the smell of the bathroom.

Gorgeous place really close to everywhere you want to stay! Lovely host and it was a pleasure to visit their place!

Donis place is one of our favourite places in Sri Lanka! We even came back a second time because we just love it here. The room is so clean and beautifully decorated, the bathroom as well and it smells so good:)) The best is doni herself. She made us an incredible breakfast every morning and let us use the washing machine for free! Also she is such a kind and caring person. She made us really feel at home! The area itself is really quiet and we could rent a scooter from doni to explore the beautiful beaches! I’m sure we will be back a third time if we can :))

Our best find in Sri Lanka. Hosts, Michael & Ruwanthi are so friendly & helpful, going out of their way to make sure we had a truly wonderful time. Glyn Myu is beautiful, luxurious & very comfortable. The location is quite simply breathtaking. Ruwanthi is an incredibly talented cook serving exquisite meals with most ingredients gathered from her extensive garden. Her knowledge of the dietary & medicinal properties of her homegrown larder is very impressive. She is also delighted to share her passion & knowledge. A Sri Lankan gem where we felt welcome, relaxed & immediately at home. They have a very informative website with contact details!

what a fantastic location, wonderfull food and nice family!

Chani and Lali were lovely hosts! Very accommodating with check in, greeted us on arrival and were very friendly. The room was as pictured & described - very comfy bed, hot water! Shared kitchen facilities were very good, plenty of space in the fridge to keep what you wanted chilled. Location wise, the place is excellent - a very short walk to restaurants and the beach - but set back far enough to be peaceful. The hosts held our bags for us on check out day as we had an early start for a whale watching boat trip booked. Chani & Lali have built a lovely little sanctuary which felt really peaceful to stay at. Thank you, we enjoyed our stay :)

Really great accommodation nearby to beautiful quiet beaches - as a female solo traveler I always felt safe. Manju’s food is also the most delicious food I’ve eaten in Sri Lanka, would return just for this!

Lovely room and Maria was super flexible with early check in as our travel plans had changed last minute. Beautiful room and we love Rio! Only consideration was that is close to the train tracks and you can hear the train passing in the morning

I would highly recommend. It was a really nice and quiet place. Everything what we wanted to see was in a good walking distance.

A beautiful family room tucked away from the kaos of the Main Street. The room was beautiful, spotless and comfortable. The balcony was lovely in the mornings and the beach towels provided were a welcome touch. Everything is within walking distance including the beach, cafes and restaurants. We had a wonderful stay in this gorgeous place. Highly recommend!

We had another wonderful stay in the villa this year. This time I didn't book directly by the sea, but a little further back. The room was very big and the two beds were very comfortable. The terrace was a dream, where I could enjoy my coffee every morning at 7 a.m. with a great view of the sea. Breakfast was as delicious as always and really plentiful (great Sri Lankan breakfast on request) ❤️ The whole team is as helpful and friendly as always. You come as a guest and leave as a friend. Thank you, dear Maria, to you and your fantastic team.🙏❤️

Speechless is an understatement. As much an art gallery as it is a villa! Architecture, design, engineering - sheer genius. Rooms are generous with space, have a shady private garden, a bath with two showers and two sinks for couples ! The pool is surrounded by vivid lush gardens, it’s deep and cool and perfect for a workout swim. The place has got numerous lounges and working places, WiFi. But most of all we fell in love with hosts Mike and Wally ! These two aren’t just hosts; they’re the heart and soul of this villa. They welcomed us at sunset with hugs that made us feel like family. World travelers and dream weavers, they’ve poured their adventures into creating a stay that’s nothing short of magical. All design, art and lush gardens done by their golden hands ! Exiting the gates is rice paddies and a temple. Surf at Kabalana - breezy 22-minute scooter ride away. Closest beach - 13 min. The place is cool and breezy on a sunny day, cosy in the rains, ambient at night. Just perfect!
