Hotels in Sri Lanka

The property is absolutely beautiful and relaxing, incorporating the local environment and culture. The staff was so friendly and accommodating. The traditional Sri Lankan food was wonderful. All around a fantastic experience, we will be back. Thank you!

I will tell anyone coming to Sri Lanka - stay with Ravi at Margosa Mountain Villa. Best stay on our trip and top 5 lifetime. Stunning setting. Perfect room. Delicious food -organic rice, fruit, fish etc. right from the property, expertly cooked by Ravi’s wife Sewwandi. Pool is sublime. Birds galore (and easy to find and ID with Ravi’s help). Booked for two days. Stayed for 4. Great spot for excursions Dambulla, Sigiriya, and beyond, but we were happy just to relax and meditate on our good fortune to be there. Ravi spent 23 years as tour guide and it shows both in his care and expertise. I know this review sounds like a plug from one of his friends but I promise that 5 days ago we’d never met. But, yes, we have definitely made a new friend. Stay as long as you can.

The staff is extremely kind, they look out for your comfort far and beyond. The garden and pool area are very well taken care of and the food at the restaurant is delicious.

We had the most amazing time at Leel’s Safari cottage! The room was perfect—super clean, beautifully designed, with air conditioning and a hot water. You can really tell how much effort they put into making everything just right. It felt so cozy and welcoming. The garden outside was lovely—well-kept, peaceful, and such a nice place to relax. And the food… wow! The meals cooked by Leel’s mom and his wife were the best we’ve had in Sri Lanka. Everything was so fresh and delicious. Thank you both for making every meal so special! We also did the sunrise safari with Leel, and it was incredible🌅 He’s so professional and knows the park so good. He explained everything so calmly and made sure we didn’t miss anything. It was truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Thank you so much, Leel, for an unforgettable stay. We’ll always remember it, and we’re so happy we got to meet you. 🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻 If you’re thinking of coming here—don’t think twice. Highly recommended!❤️

This property was exactly what was needed after a long haul flight. A peaceful sanctuary with a team who went over and beyond to ensure our comfort. The setting is just beautiful and is the perfect ambience to adjust and reset. The pool was the perfect temperature too. The Spice Garden is beautiful and make sure to do the complimentary your with the guide (who is a fountain of knowledge). We learnt so much and he was brilliant with our four year old. Seeing her excited over plants and spices was so special! Food was delicious and they accommodated our needs very well including a gluten free diet. The staff went over and beyond to accommodate us, even setting up dinner on our terrace at the last minute when our daughter had fallen asleep just before we weee due to go to the restaurant. I couldn’t recommend this place more for its warm hospitality and beautiful setting.

We had an amazing 11 days stay here :) Spacious, clean, sunny, great breakfast and great value for money, big kitchen, beautiful garden, and amazing hosts! Super helpful and communicative. We didn’t feel like guests or tourists in the town, we felt as if this was our home, it was nice for us to be in a neighborhood with locals as well, so it was perfect for a long terms stay. The bedroom was very comfortable, there was AC but we switched mostly to using the ceiling fans because they were so strong and effective :) It’s Close to the train station (we had a perfect day trip to Galle and we took the train) and also close to bus stops. There is a quiet beach just a few minutes away, feels like our own private beach, we didn’t see other tourists there, there’s a relaxed restaurant too for any meal or drink you may want. although the waves seemed strong so we didn’t go in the water. Very short Tuktuk ride to Weligama, also close to mirissa, and we also enjoyed riding to madiha as well. The breakfasts were so good! Best value for money, perfect mix of super authentic Sri Lankan food and western staples (there were always eggs). we loved the fun cakes!! And enjoyed trying the foods we didn’t see at restaurants. We were super lucky we were the only guests there, so we had a perfect stay. The villa is a really good option for a group, or a family, because the kitchen and couch and balcony are technically common-shared with the other guests. Also a good choice if you are renting a Tuktuk or motorcycle because you will have the driveway or front yard to park it.

1. Hotel is fresh and new and of really a good quality. Nothing experienced heavy usage like in Riff - the only real 5* competitor on Hikka beach 2. I got Deluxe suite with Seaview for the price of a regular room cos the hotel just started to work and had not much of guests. 3. Room has excellent sleeping conditions which is rare on Shri: blind curtains & you can sleep with ac on without a risk to catch cold. Priceless.

‘We enjoyed our stay in the cottage really much. The place is nicely designed and well equiped, settled in a peaceful Village environment. The host is really helpful and prepares tasty breakfast and dinner. Also offers safari tour. So thanks lot for everything!!!

great views. friendly staff. beautiful jungle and fruit farm

Location is great, short walking distance to everything but also quiet and peaceful villa. Lovely staff and amazing breakfast! Helped us arrange transfer and massage too:)

Very beautiful garden, located in the heart of hikkaduwa, but just far enough to feel alone .

If you're looking for an unforgettable getaway, I wholeheartedly recommend this exceptional property in Sri Lanka. Over two weeks of traveling across this beautiful island, this place stood out as paradise on earth. The hospitality was unmatched, with Mr. Janaka and his wonderful staff are going above and beyond to make our stay truly special. The super comfortable suites, elegant furniture, stunning surroundings, and an extraordinary swimming pool set the stage for relaxation. Everything was immaculately clean, the breakfasts were amazing, and the tranquil location offered a perfect escape. This destination promises a unique, memorable vacation experience, and I can't wait to return. Highly recommended!
