Vacation rentals in Kanneliya

Absolutely faultless experience. The beautiful house and excellent team of staff exceeded all of our expectations. We were incredibly comfortable in the spacious and beautifully designed and furnished house and gardens. The house managed to combine all of the above whilst allowing us to feel completely ‘at home’. Sunil, the on-site villa manager, was always able to help and guide us with all our needs for transport and excursions etc. Sunil is also a wonderful chef. He cooks with skill but also with love. We felt very well looked after. He and his team kept the villa spotless and were kind and friendly throughout. We hugely appreciated the effort they made to help us celebrate our daughters birthday whilst we were there. Would 100% recommend.

We had a lovely stay there. We would stay 2 nights but have stayed 4! It feels like you're in the jungle. Wonderful! Lovely swimming pool. Every evening fireflies in the garden. Very nice, helpful host. Highly recommended!

This place is wonderful on so many levels. I stayed for 3 months and it was an absolute delight. Firstly, the villa itself is spacious and spotlessly clean. It has lots of workspace for online working and a fast WiFi. The kitchen has everthing you need and there's a fabulous balcony sheltered by a mango tree, where you can watch the many colourful birds. secondly, what makes this property a delight are Hiran and Malika. They are so kind and treated me like family. During my stay, I had some health problems and they went out of their way to help me. For the majority of time there, I was alone so I felt very safe with Hiran and his wife close by. Thirdly, I requested 3 meals a week for a small price and Malika provided me with the most delicious home cooked food. Amazing! Lasting, the location is great. Walking distance to Galle or short bus ride away. Locally, there's plenty of shops. Thank you Hiran and Malika.

Perfect Stay with the Sweetest Host and Private Tour Experience! If you’re looking for an unforgettable stay, this is the place to book! The host is incredibly sweet, welcoming, and goes above and beyond to make you feel at home. The highlight of my trip was the private tour he organized—thoughtfully planned and full of local insights we would never have discovered on our own. The accommodation itself was spotless, cozy, and had everything we needed. Every little detail felt carefully curated to ensure a comfortable and enjoyable stay. Thank you so much for making my trip so special. can’t wait to come back and would recommend this place to anyone looking for an authentic and heartwarming experience.

We had a great time staying in this villa for one month. Finding a good place in Sri Lanka at a reasonable price is so hard. This villa exceeded our expectations. It was much better in real life than in pictures. The sunrise through the windows softly illuminates the jungle, calling us to wake up early for every new day. It is very natural and comfortable to stay in. But our experience would not have been as exciting without the villa's owner, Nuwan. Nuwan is the best man on the island, and we became friends. Every time, he helped us in different situations. We will come back to that place because there are the people who make the place truly happy.

This was an amazing place to stay! The house was exactly as described. The host was incredibly friendly and responsive, quickly addressing any issues that came up and ensuring our stay was as comfortable as possible. Highly recommend this place and would definitely stay here again!

The view from the villa is simply stunning, we enjoyed many afternoons lounging by the pool. The villa is spacious & well equipped for all your needs, we didn’t want for anything whilst there. The space is perfect for families & is spacious enough not to feel cramped. The dining area on the veranda is such a lovely place to enjoy breakfast or dinner.. The fish market is only a 10 minute journey away and there are plenty of little fruit & veg stores on the road leading to Unawatuna to grab everyday essentials. Try and use PickMe app or the next door neighbour has an auto for rent at good prices. There is a housekeeper on-site to assist with anything you need. Only downside was the waste management, the issue was raised with Christa so hopefully that will be resolved. Christa was a very good host, she even purchased a Christmas tree & lights for Xmas a very thoughtful touch. Overall we loved our stay & would happily return.

Loved every minute of our stay. It could easily become a very extensive appraisal, but to keep it short, we just want to say THANK YOU to Petals, Upul & Jagath💚 Such a lush, hospitable and warm experience in every way. See you next time.
