The property is a small, beautifully restored historic villa. This means the service is personalised, with staff very attentive to the needs of their guests. The food was absolutely outstanding and we enjoyed trying local Jaffna specialties. We also loved having a pool to cool off in at the end of a hot day exploring. There was good information provided which outlined the history of Jaffna and of the villa.

The hotel is very well designed and in calm area. You can easily get to the busy centre of Jaffna by tuktuk. The room was big and comfortable, as well as the bathroom. All very well equipped and clean. The staff is extremly kind, helpful and professional, our gratitude to their attention. The Amudham restaurant on the property provides excellent dining experience, superb traditional and modern interpretations of Sri Lankan as well as international cuisine. Highly recommended.

Absolutely loved my stay here! The staff and caretakers looked after me like I was family - particularly Robina and Spelwin. The breakfast was authentic, delicious and served with love. Staff were very accommodative of my needs and ensured to check in with me regularly. Facilities were clean and my room exceeded my expectation. Will definitely stay here next time.

This hotel is excellent value for the price. We stayed in a family room with 3 double beds. The room was large, reasonably clean with a private bathroom. The beds were very clean and comfortable. The room also had an air conditioning which some central management. There were electric sockets in the room and toilet paper in the bathroom. The location is central, convenient for the railway station. For the Internet we do not know, we better used our SIM. There’s also a ‘restaurant’ on the ground floor, the food was very good, but it took very long to come, so I’m not sure how the restaurant actually works. We enjoyed our stay here and would be happy to come back again.

Jaffna is a must visit, even if it may not be a polished tourist destination, like Galle. Jaffna has a unique old world charm, her strong cultural heritage is evident in the food, dress, architecture and palmyra dotted landscape. The beaches have a sleepy feel to them... nobody trying to sell you trinkets or sarongs, the Jaffna Fort is immaculate and impressive and the sunset paints the sky as you drive down the causeway to the islands. Traffic is not an issue, except around the bus stand. Sadly, most of the fantastic mango varieties that Jaffna was once famous for have disappeared, with the only survivor being the iconic Karthkolamban. In their place, we saw heaps of Rambuttan and Mangosteen from the South and Citrus from Pakistan.

Our time at Delft Beachfront Villa was amazing!

Our time at Delft Beachfront Villa was amazing! They didn't just offer us a free breakfast; they also organized a tuktuk and a knowledgeable guide so we could explore Delft island. The snorkeling they arranged was fantastic. The spot was beautiful, with clear water full of colorful fish and stunning rocks. we were mesmerized by what we saw underwater. Plus, they have bikes available for guests to explore the island on their own. If you looking for a memorable getaway with great hospitality and exciting experiences, Delft beachfront Villa is the place to go. we highly recommend it for anyone who wants a mix of relaxation and adventure!

Kankesanthurai has a beautiful and peaceful beach, making it a nice place to visit. However, there are limited facilities such as restaurants, shops, and other services compared to Jaffna Town. If you're planning to explore the Northern Province, I recommend staying in Jaffna Town, as it has more accommodation, dining, and transport options. From there, you can easily take day trips to Kankesanthurai and other attractions across the province.

Abi Holiday Villa was everything we hoped for and more!

Abi Holiday Villa was everything we hoped for and more! Nestled in a serene, spacious property surrounded by lush gardens, this villa is the ultimate escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life. From the moment we arrived, the peaceful atmosphere—filled with the gentle rustle of palm trees and birdsong—made it easy to unwind. The villa itself is impeccably maintained, offering a perfect blend of comfort and style. The interiors are spacious, clean, and thoughtfully designed, with modern amenities (like a fully equipped kitchen and cozy bedrooms) that made our stay effortless. But the true star of the show is the outdoor space! The sprawling garden feels like a private oasis, ideal for morning coffees on the patio, leisurely strolls among flowering plants, or evenings grilling under the stars. Our kids loved playing freely in the safe, open area, and we cherished the alfresco dining setup surrounded by nature. Location-wise, it’s a gem—tucked away for privacy yet conveniently close to Keerimalai’s natural springs and a short drive from Jaffna’s cultural sites. The quiet neighborhood added to the restorative vibe, but we never felt isolated. A special shout-out to the host, who was attentive and gracious, offering local tips and ensuring we had everything we needed. Their hospitality truly elevated our experience. If you’re seeking a peaceful retreat with space to breathe, Abi Holiday Villa is it. We’re already dreaming of our next visit! Highly recommended for families, couples, or solo travelers craving serenity. P.S. Don’t miss watching the sunset from the garden—it’s magical!
