Bed and Breakfast Villa Taprobane
11/3, Thalgahawaththa Road, Duwana, Kochchikade, 11500 Negombo, Sri Lanka – Great location - show map
The host was great 👍 no disturbance, and the place was clean and calm. They help us with everything we need. And the owners are very friendly and they serve excellent and delicious breakfast 🍞 Recommended! ♥️🥰
Sri LankaVery friendly hosts, they helped us with airport pick-up and talking to tuktuk and taxi drivers to translate for us. Instant hot water, free bottle of water, and nice beds with mosquito nets. Highly recommend
United States of AmericaBrilliant, welcoming staff - near to airport so would highly recommend. Nothing was too much bother. Was greeted at 1am as I arrived with an umbrella to protect me from the rain - exceptionally nice owners
SingaporeMassive thx to Sharmila and Sampath, from airport pick up to early check in, generous (and delish) meals - they are gracious hosts and run a beautiful villa for any start and/or finish to Sri Lanka. Sampath too was our driver exploring Sri Lanka’s beautiful spots, very knowledgeable, safe and good soul in general. Stutiyi!!
CanadaVery politely welcome to the property. Place is very good and clean. Hope to visit again
Sri LankaThe level of hospitality provided by Sharmila and her husband was excellent! They took very good care of us! Both the breakfast and the dinner were very delicious and coming really from their heart! Thank you again! :)
HungaryThe owner is very very nice and helpful. They are one of the best home onstage owner I’ve met in Sri Lanka. Room very clean and tidy. Good for value. Quiet area all you can hear is birds and dogs on the streets. No noise at all. Tasty breakfast with choices plus coffee/tea. Close to negombo fish market they can help you to get tuk tuk as well. They also let us use their kitchen to cook seafood. And we shared spirits together as well. Great time with them. If you want to stay in negombo with good value (not expecting 5 star hotel standard) this is a good choice. And they really did their best.
ChinaFriendly service, picked up from airport, short drive & room decorated with balloons& candles for our honeymoon- very thoughtful! Convenient for a quick stop on your travels through Sri Lanka
AustraliaAmazing friendly hosts who would do anything for you. Lovely relaxed vibe with nice garden, good air conditioning and cute pets. It’s at the northern tip of Negombo but there’s a bus at the end of the street (outside the cemetary) for 20 LKR it will take you up the main strip all the way to the bus station. With thanks from, Rachel, Nick and Joey from Australia.
AustraliaSharmila is great with the sweetest smile and so helpful with advice to help with our travels. We enjoyed our conversations with her and felt completely welcome in her home. The homestay is located in a quiet neighborhood which is quite pleasent for walking and quiet in the evening. Upstairs room was lovely with a charming deck. Would definately recomend. Just keep in mind far from other dining options. Bicycles available.
