Villa Araliya
No. 154/10, Poruthota Road, Palangathure, Kochchikade, 15410 Negombo, Sri Lanka – Great location - show map
The place is cool, the rooms have character, the pool is really nice and the breakfast was so so so good. We stayed only our first night before heading north and it was just perfect!

assanka is the most valuable treasure about this place, the most amazing guy he went way beyond the extra mile to make our stay enjoyable.

The villa complex was very attractive, the pool was lovely, the staff were friendly and super helpful, the location was quiet but not far from the beach and restaurants, the vegetarian food was excellent.

Villa Araliya is a beautiful small complex of rooms and suites straight off the pages of a style magazine. Elegant but welcoming with polished concrete, white pillars and dark wood, We were upgraded to a suite and it was amazing, huge rooms with high vaulted ceilings and a king sized bed. even the standard rooms look like a boutique hotel. Very good ceiling fan and a quiet and effective air con. The staff were all super helpful and friendly. The Villa is a 5 minute walk to the beach and there were a couple of beach bars and a beach restaurant we visited. We also had curry and rice at Araliya which was yummy as was the wine. The pool is perfect - the photos do not do it justice. And they had adopted a puppy abandoned on their doorstep - lovely people cute puppy.

This hotel is a great spot to enjoy right before flying home! A glorious pool and a wonderful room. We spent a lovely day just reading and swimming under the frangipani trees. Asanka, our host, went out of his way to make sure we had no worries. He prepared great and authentic Sri Lankan food and we had some lovely and interesting chats with him. Highly recommended!

Just an incredible place- tranquil, beautiful. The staff are wonderful and cant do enough for you. Special thanks to Asanka who seems to handle so much but manages to cook the most delicious vegetarian Sri Lankan food. Love the ethos of the owner- Palitha as he looks after rescue dogs, cats and even a friendly tortoise! The pool is fabulous- gets the sun all day.

Highly recommended - we booked 2 nights, ended up staying 5. It’s so relaxed and a tranquil place to stay, especially for a first or last night as nearer to airport than Colombo city. Beach 5 mins walk away, with some nice restaurants/beach bars nearby but definitely get dinner at the Villa Araliya. Some of the most delicious food we ate in a month in Sri Lanka. We got a good value car organised when we needed it, for Colombo Fort. Rooms are spacious, comfortable and spotlessly clean. Big bed, four-poster, with mosquito net. Lovely veranda in our ground floor room. Pool is beautiful. Lots of frangipani trees. The owner and staff were kind, helpful and laid back while giving us everything we needed, and more. Idyllic. We will highly recommend to friends travelling to Sri Lanka.

very relaxing ambience; nice pool; trees/ birds/ animals; you don’t want to leave

This was our first stop in Sri Lanka and one of our favourite places. The staff and owner were really lovely warm ad welcoming and we felt immediately at home. The pool was spotless and the whole place was really well maintained. The food was delicious and the kids loved the Italian food. We loved meeting the resident turtle (large terrapin)who even joined us briefly for a quick swim in the pool much to the amusement of the kids!

We stayed in one of the apartments which was quite spacious and good value at the prevailing rate. The pool was quite nice.
