First of all, this is a totally private villa with no neighbors. Located in quiet area in 5 min walk to a less crowded surf spot. Place is just renovated so everything is new nice and clean.

Comfortable little villa with big terrace. Has everything you need if you go surfing in Hiriketiya (kitchen, rope for hanging wet clothes, fridge..) Close to the beach, but still located a bit off the street to give you privacy and quiet night sleep. We really loved the place!

Absolutely amazing property, and I can confidently say it was one of the best vacation experiences I’ve ever had. From the moment I arrived, I was blown away by the breathtaking location—nestled in a stunning setting with picturesque views that felt like something out of a dream. This stay was a surprise for my girls, and it couldn’t have been more perfect! From the moment we arrived, they were absolutely amazed by the beauty of the property. The location was breathtaking, with stunning views and a serene atmosphere that made it feel like a hidden paradise.
