Vacation rentals in Kanneliya

We had a lovely stay here! Such a clean apartment, and so nice to have the pool and gym on site. Our host was so friendly and always answered our questions quickly! She also got us all a little gift each, which was so sweet of her❤️ couldn’t recommend this place enough.

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!

Our stay at Duma beach house was amazing, mainly due to the helpful host. He was always responsive and kept the place spotless cleaning everything ( including the pool) multiple times a day! The breakfast was amazing and the options he had provided were excellent. Most of the time, we had the entire stretch of beach to ourselves. The place was so peaceful too.

We had a great time staying at Fahim’s place. We settled in comfortably and Fahim was very foregoing when meeting us, and later the overall hospitality and friendliness was 10/10 . The apparent is superb and answered all our requirements. the area is very peaceful and countryside-like. The apartment is directly opposite the mosque but the late prayers during Ramadan didn’t bother us , plus Fahim generously compensated us for potential disturbances. The beach and restaurants/cafes are at walkable distance. Overall one of the best Airbnb experience we ever had. ❤️❤️❤️

Sea Crest Beach Villa enjoys a stunning beachfront location, right in front of one of the most beautiful beaches in Ambalangoda. The setting is truly breathtaking, offering direct access to the ocean and mesmerizing sunset views. We stayed for six nights and had an entire floor to ourselves, which was spacious and with a large balcony overlooking the ocean. Waking up to the sound of waves and enjoying the sunset from our private space was definitely a highlight of our stay.

The beach hut is a wonderful place to stay in a beautiful green location. The hut is basic but has everything you need, just a step away from the beach. The hosts are very helpful, and their restaurant across the street is definitely worth a visit. This place is highly recommended!

Such a secluded and peaceful location. The rooms are huge and the pool is great. It's a perfect place to switch off and enjoy nature - we saw monkeys, chipmunks, and no end of birds, including a huge eagle that would perch in the tree above the garden. Malan and his wife looked after us well (but were never overbearing) and Malan was always on hand to run us to the beach or shops in his tuktuk. Thanks also to Andrew who was very quick to respond to any queries. This is a hidden gem at a great price.

The house is perfect, we had such a nice stay here. Very stylish, good location and the housekeeper is the sweetest and makes very nice breakfast! The restaurant Citra that they have down the street is one of the best in Sri Lanka also! Would recommend this place to everyone and we hope we have a chance to go back one day!

This is a great villa just 10 minutes from Galle by car/scooter. It's located on a very small and quiet village street with very few neighbours. There's another house adjacent to the villa, so you won't be totally isolated, but for sure this is the right place to have a rest from crowded streets and beaches. We were surprised how good the villa is – it's newly built, very well designed and has been quality constructed. I can't but mention nice furniture and real flowers/decorations all over the house. This villa definitely has good vibes. It feels spacious and has big living area, big kitchen, bathrooms as well as decently sized bedrooms. Terrace is a great place to enjoy your morning and evening meals. You may often observe monkeys jumping on the trees, sometimes very close – it's a lot of fun to watch them. Luckily they are not spoiled and don't come too close to the house. The biggest downside for us was a poor bedrooms soundproof – the doors have false shades without any barrier, effectively you feel like you have open doors. I'm sure for some early birds this is a nice feature as you can enjoy nature sounds both in the evenings and mornings. We are late sleepers, so it was a bit difficult to get used to this feature – both birds and village people start their day around 5-6 am. The same false shades may let some spiders/geckos inside. There's no A/C, but it's not a deal breaker as we have kept many doors open during a day and there was a lot of fresh air. In the evening ceiling fans in the living area and master bedroom cool the air down. The villa is supported by Danuka's family, not just himself, and they are all very kind people, really trying to do everything to make your stay comfortable. The family lives just a few houses away, so they're always available. We enjoyed Danuka's mom breakfasts and also asked her for a traditional rice&curry dinner. Just few kilometers away are ancient buddhist temple and a hand weaving factory, which the family kindly showed us. Both were very interesting experiences. All in all, it's a great place to stay, we'll have a very warm memories about it.
