Pros:

Zeer ruim appartement met privezwembad. Heerlijk eten, fijne bedden en erg vriendelijk personeel. Niets was teveel, top verblijf

Cons:

Schaduwplekken in je tuin wat beperkt met de eethoek overdag in de volle zon. Op gezamenlijke plekken wel schaduw, dus goed op te lossen.

Relaxing and comfortable
Pros:

It was lovely to have our own pool. The bed was VERY compfortable and the staff extremely helpful. Would love to come back and stay longer next time and use the facilities more. The food was delicious and nothing was too much trouble

Cons:

Unfortunately my friends room power went off and on all night so it was not so compfortable but still a great stay.

Uitstekend start van onze roadtrip door Sri Lanka
Pros:

Fantastisch uitzicht op de rivier met een mooie zonsondergang. Daarnaast kan je dit aanschouwen vanuit jouw eigen privézwembad.

Cons:

Zowel het avondeten als het ontbijt zijn goed, maar de prijs van het avondeten is eerder aan de hoge kant voor Sri Lanka.

Beautiful villa in a peaceful part of negombi. Great start to our trip to Sri Lanka.
Pros:

Peaceful and quiet. Lovely room. Great food for lunch and breakfast.

Cons:

It is away from main part of negombo - easily can get there on tuk Tuk. Felt a little expensive compared with other places.

Pros:

A stunning villa overlooking the Maha Oya river, with a beautiful pool and an atmosphere that stays with you. The rooms are immaculate, spotlessly clean and luxurious, with thoughtful attention to every detail.

What truly made it special, though, was the hospitality. As we had an evening flight, they kindly allowed us a late check-out, and we happily spent extra hours in this peaceful haven with no rush at all. We were also lucky enough to speak with the owner, who was moved to tears telling us about his love for this project, for Sri Lanka, and for his staff, whom he considers true family — and you feel that warmth throughout the stay.

A special thank you goes to Harsha, who looked after us perfectly from start to finish, but the entire staff was kind and attentive. We also tried the massage, which was excellent, and the meals — both breakfast and dinner — were delicious.

A place we recommend with all our heart. We will definitely be back.

Pros:

The villa were nice and the private pools were lovely.

Cons:

Two of the younger male staff members used the contact information we provided at check in to try to add us on instagram and send inappropriate messages on Whatsapp. As two women staying here, this was very uncomfortable and felt like a violation of privacy

While the villa was nice and comfortable, but the location was a little secluded and isolated.
Pros:

The property was neat, clean and comfortable. The staff were younger family members of the hosts and were helpful and accommodating given our late arrival to the property.

Cons:

The location of the property was out of the way and much more isolated than I expected.
