Cottage vacation rentals in Sri Lanka

I am English staying with young family.. 6 of us a laf minute booking. Much to appreciate from RUPUL as a Barrister at the Bar in Kandy/Colombo and country’s high Courts . I’m a forever returning visitor. The sitting room so stylish and crammed with not just law material! The breakfast was excellent and very accommodating for taking 2nd one with is to sight see early. Strongly recommend for large families. As place and tranquility yo self. Peaceful only hearing the nature I thank you and your wife Upil and obliging staff)Muhindera(sp) Loose U.K. family Sri Lankan

Our stay was completely successful! The host was extremely polite and always available. If we needed anything, we could easily contact him via chat message – he usually responded immediately and quickly took care of our concerns. Particularly noteworthy is that he drove us to the next accommodation on the day of departure at a fair price. The rooms were nicely decorated, the grounds lovingly and attractively designed. Overall a very pleasant atmosphere – we can clearly recommend this place!

Beautiful place to stay! The staff were so friendly and accommodating. I will be back!

You don't go to Senaka's by chance, the access is remote but very close to Knukles peak. The scenery is beautiful. Dinner is very good but maybe a little expensive. Breakfast is super generous and of quality. The person who welcomed us was very attentive, tea, small cakes, bananas, she even prepared a sandwich for our hike. Thanks again for our stay

We had a really nice time! The two Cabins are perfect for two couples. From there you can reach the ancient part of Polonnaruwa very easily. Also you have a nice view on the Lake!

Staying at Lakmali's place in Runakanda Forest is definitely one of my top 5 favorite places in Sri Lanka. I’m so grateful to have had the opportunity to stay there, especially with my mom, as it was her first time in Sri Lanka,and she absolutely loved every moment of it! The food was beyond incredible! Each meal was showcasing the rich and flavorful Sri Lankan cuisine. The peaceful and serene surroundings of the forest made it the perfect escape. It’s a truly tranquil place where we could relax, and the location was just ideal for enjoying authentic local experiences. We had the chance to pick tea just a short walk away from the cottage, a unique experience that we’ll never forget. We also had the pleasure of meeting wonderful people, and the warm hospitality made our stay feel special. My mom and I both agreed that it was a stay we’ll cherish forever. I can’t recommend Lakmali’s place highly enough for anyone looking for a peaceful, authentic, and unforgettable experience in SL !

The house is located in a quiet place, in a small palm forest, next to the beach. Anushka was always in touch and resolved all issues, as well as organized a tour. The house had hot water, ac and fans. There are cafes and shops nearby, convenient access to the station. There are always few people on the beach, which is great. Would recommend this house and its host. Thank you!

I could not have wished for a better place to land in the culture of Sri Lanka. Agapi Villa, truly lives up to its name: love. The loving attention that this place is created with is felt within every detail. The shower is fantastic, the kitchen has all you need to create a home-cooked meal. The bicylcle I could borrow added a lot of value to my experience. Cycling through the country side, along the ocean and to the near by city made me able to really feel as if I was taking part in the Sri Lankan life. To meet Christina, Keshan and their family and get to peek into the life they are living; a full devotion to care for the street dogs in Sri Lanka, truly left an Imprint in my heart. As well as their heart warming presence and genuine care and help during my stay. If you are wish to experience Sri lanka in an authentic way, away from the mass tourist and find yourself at one of the beaches that make you feel as if you are inside of a post-card, this is the place for you to be!

I booked this bnb when I visited my family in Sri Lanka. I needed a place that looked like my home for several days until my home renovation was complete. This listing was perfect since it was within walking distance of the Pelawatta junction. I bet anyone who is visiting the Overseas International School would greatly appreciate this location since it is a short walk away. The property manager/caretaker was extremely polite and very responsive. I liked the layout of the house. The bedroom downstairs was perfect for my parents while the kids and I had it upstairs. The kitchen and the dining area were a daily hangout place where we would sit down and chat for hours, a very cozy and homely place. Enjoyed my stay and made my visit to Sri Lanka even better! thank you!

Lovely colonial-style bungalow, in a great location. The tea estate is fantastic, just wandering around and saying hello to the villagers was fun. Lots of walks to do nearby (the descent from Idulgashina station is a beautiful, easy hike, and the walk down through Bathgoda village is great for counting all the different fruit and vegetables being grown). Otherwise just sit on the verandah and read a book, enjoy the view, or sleep off one of Pria’s excellent meals.

We were extremely happy to stay at Malith place. It had an outstanding balcony view, stable hot water and wifi. His sister was extremely helpful. Can definitely recommend it.

I’ve stayed at many Airbnb’s and this may be my favorite. It’s serene, right in nature, yet extremely comfortable. They get me anything I need, food, water, etc. The bed is comfy, the middle glass room is my favorite, to write and meditate and stare at the eagles. The kitchen has everything you need. This place is perfect if you want an escape. If you want time to just be with yourself and loved ones. I feel really blessed to have found this space. It’s exactly what I needed for this point in my life. 5 stars across the board. I hope you get to experience the magic of this Airbnb.

this Airbnb is an excellent stay that's perfect for a safari trip. The cottage is exceptionally clean and comfortable, and Hasith is a brilliant host. The food was excellent and he catered to our every needs. we would absolutely recommend this cottage for anyone visiting Udawalawe.

This is extraordinary, total gem, the best of the best... this is real someones dream came through, so if you ever dreamed of beautiful and peacefull castle on the beach, this might be the answer, the epic journey, to try how it feels like, be a part of Erics dream who built this paradise for himself but you may taste it as well for the time you stay, we were too lucky to find this place and spent 8 best nights of our life here, do not hasitate and book this villa , you stay in real paradise for a bargain, beaches around you, birds singing, no tourists nor locals bothering you, very private, best location, best holiday! We loved this place...

It was the best place we stayed in Sri-Lanka. The staff were the nicest people, very helpful. We stayed in many places, but this one is something special. Great place, great view, location and staff. They even have the big book with hundreds of reviews inside. Like old school stile. The place is really authentic (in the good way) Highly recommended!

Thank you for a lovely stay at the Yellow House! Beautiful place, with kind and helpful staff who went the extra mile to make our stay comfortable. Really recommend this place for a couple / family looking for a holiday off the beaten track!
