Modern luxury villa life Sri Lankan style
Pros:

About George and his attentive, lovely and caring stuff all previous reviews told you about them. It is all more than correct. They are amazing, the hospitality is outstanding.

Just like the architecture of the building which is creating an intimate atmosphere around the pool in the centre.
Each unique room has art wherever you look between comfort in the bathroom as well as streaming services on the TV and a mini bar.

You feel like home, staying a day inside you are more than comfortable not missing anything if you eat whatever George and the boys are creating for you fresh in their clean neat kitchen while music is playing and guests are quietly chatting with each other or reading in one if the art books displayed.

Indulge in the atmosphere of Sri Lanka individual luxury tourism lifestyle, trying to meet ones needs whatever you might wish for. Sri Lanka traditional Villa life combined with the modern art of living. Well done. It is worth to explore.

Pros:

Så skønt og lækkert sted at bo i Tangalle! Vi boede i værelset ud til poolen og der var så fredeligt og roligt. Vi kom helt ned i gear og fik nydt alle omgivelserne. Det sødeste personale der gjorde alt for at gøre opholdet trygt og rart.
Alt i alt et fantastisk ophold!

Cons:

Intet - ligger ikke i gåafstand fra byen men meget nemt med tuktuk.

Een absolute aanrader!
Pros:

Wij hebben 5 nachten verbleven bij D’Art Villa Retreat & Spa en het was werkelijk fantastisch! Het verblijf is prachtig en stijlvol ingericht. Zowel onze kamer als de hele accommodatie werd ontzettend goed schoongemaakt en tot in de puntjes netjes bijgehouden.

Het personeel is altijd vriendelijk en levert een uitstekende service. Iedereen doet zichtbaar zijn uiterste best om het je zo comfortabel en aangenaam mogelijk te maken, wat zorgt voor een heel warme en ontspannen sfeer.

En dan het eten… wauw! De chef-kok is echt een enorme aanwinst. Elke maaltijd was opnieuw een verrassing en ontzettend lekker. We hebben hier enorm genoten en zouden zonder twijfel terugkomen. Een absolute aanrader!

Toller Aufenthalt mit super netten Mitarbeitern. Wir würden jederzeit wiederkommen.
Pros:

Tolles Zimmer mit direktem Poolzugang, schöne Unterkunft und extrem freundliches und aufmerksames Personal. Auch das Frühstück war sehr gut.

Cons:

Teilweise roch es stark nach Chlor, wir vermuten das Leitungswasser wird dort gechlort. Wenn man geduscht hat, war teilweise das Bad überflutet, was aber nicht weiter schlimm war.

The best place we’ve ever stayed! Book if you get the chance
Pros:

This is the most beautiful property we’ve ever had the pleasure of staying at.

It’s so perfectly thought out with gorgeous rooms, views, dining areas and a picturesque pool.

George and his team are nothing short of incredible. Everyone was so friendly and welcoming, helping us with our questions and cooking up delicious meals - it was like a private fine dining experience each evening!

We set off early from the villa one day to head to Yala for a safari, and were kindly met with a prepared breakfast to take with us. These thoughtful moments really enhanced our experience!

We felt so relaxed at the villa and just wished we could have stayed longer. We’ll be recommending to all our family and friends - and look forward to returning again one day!

Thank you for such wonderful stay!

A beautifully designed, tranquil oasis with luxurious space, attentive hosts, and an ideal tucked-away location
Pros:

Our stay here has been nothing short of exceptional. The accommodation has been meticulously designed with a creative, tasteful flair—every detail feels thoughtful and refined. After a busy day exploring, returning to this place truly feels like slipping into a calm oasis. The open, spacious, and private setting adds a sense of luxury that’s hard to beat.

The team has been incredibly attentive to our needs from the moment we arrived. Such beautiful people—warm, genuine, and always ready to help. The location, while tucked away and wonderfully peaceful, is still perfectly situated for accessing all the beaches along the southern coast with ease. Highly recommended for anyone seeking beauty, comfort, and a touch of serenity.

Cons:

Nothing

A moment living in Art.
Pros:

It was like spending 4 days within a work of art. This boutique villa has been specifically designed down to every detail. We could step from our room almost directly into the cooling pool which was wonderful. George and his staff were very accommodating and friendly and the breakfast and food was delicious - a great Sri Lankan breakfast! As the property is walled you really feel cocooned here. We needed to take a tuk tuk to the beach etc but that wasn’t difficult.

Cons:

No

Excellent
Pros:

This Villa was the perfect place after exploring Ella, Kandy and Sigiriya. Perfect place to start slowing down! The Team was super kind and gave us a lot of tips for dinner and which places to visit in Tangalle. Sure, we travelled during the low season but everything was offered, even more. If I ever visit Sri Lanka again, this is a place I’ll definitely visit again.

Geweldige villa. Totale luxe!
Pros:

De staf is geweldig. Wij waren met een ander stel in de villa en er stond continue 4, 5 man tot je beschikking die je werkelijk in alles ontlasten. Suresh gaf ons goede tips over de omgeving en ook plaatsen om uiteten te gaan.
Het eten is top. Voor het ontbijt kan je zelfs je persoonlijke voorkeuren doorgeven. Alles is te regelen. Niets is gebonden aan een tijd. Ook het diner was heerlijk! Je kan alles zelf bepalen. De spa en het zwembad zijn fantastisch.
De kamer was van alle gemakken voorzien. Zeer luxe! Ben je toe aan totale rust en luxe gedurende je reis in sri lanka? Boek dan deze accommodatie!

Cons:

Helemaal niets
