We had a fantastic stay at Ranna Beach House! The location is absolutely stunning—right on a quiet, unspoiled beach with incredible sunset views. The staff were warm, attentive, and made us feel right at home. The food was a real highlight—fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared every time. The house is clean, well-maintained, and perfect for a peaceful getaway. Highly recommended!

Our one-night stay at this villa was truly enjoyable. The property is only about 100 meters from the beach, so it was easy to walk over and enjoy the sea breeze whenever we wanted. The villa itself is very spacious, nicely designed, and kept very clean. It offered a perfect mix of comfort and privacy. The large swimming pool was the highlight — sparkling clean, well-maintained, and big enough to really enjoy a proper swim, not just a quick dip. We spent a lot of time relaxing by the poolside, which made our stay even more special. What impressed us most was the peaceful atmosphere. The area is calm and quiet, away from crowds, yet still close enough to the beach and local surroundings. The staff were welcoming, attentive, and always ready to help, which made the whole experience smooth and pleasant. Even though we only stayed one night, it felt like a refreshing getaway. This villa is perfect for both short and long stays, and we would definitely choose it again in the future.

We are a young couple from Austria and found the villas through coincidence. We recently spent a few nights at the Tomorrowland Hostel in Ella. (where the hospitality far exceeded typical hostel standards.) When we mentioned our plans to travel to the South Coast, Tomorrowland’s Guest Relations Officer, Pooja, introduced us to their brand-new upscale boutique property—Tomorrowland Beach Villas in Rekawa, Tangalle—promising a luxurious all-inclusive experience. We decided to give it a try From the moment we arrived at the property, it felt like a slice of paradise. We were warmly welcomed by two wonderful hosts who greeted us with cool, refreshing towels and freshly squeezed fruit juices—an incredibly thoughtful touch after our journey. Hungry from the trip, we were soon treated to the best hash browns we’ve ever had—crispy, golden, and delightfully thick, almost the size of a deep-dish, medium pizza! Accompanied by perfectly boiled eggs, a plate of fresh tropical fruits, and organic tea from Sri Lanka’s highlands, the breakfast set the tone for an unforgettable stay. The all-inclusive package included a magical canoeing trip on the serene Rekawa Lagoon and a spectacular beachside dinner. We've never come across an all-inclusive experience of this caliber in Sri Lanka. From the romantic cabins with extra-long beds to the wide, luxurious sunbeds on the private beach, every detail of our stay was designed for comfort and indulgence. The warm hospitality, exquisite food, unlimited drinks, and impeccable service made our experience truly exceptional. It's a real insider tip, still spared from the crowds of tourists ;) We cannot recommend this place enough. If you’re looking for a five-star, all-inclusive getaway where you’ll be pampered from start to finish, Tomorrowland Beach Villas is the place to go! Thank you Pooja! We will come back :)

Our family truly enjoyed this villa and its peaceful location. The owner was incredibly helpful upon our arrival, assisting with food and scooter rentals. It's a short five-minute walk to a beautiful beach, perfect for turtle sightings. The villa features a cozy terrace and a convenient kitchen with a fridge and coffee/tea making facilities. For pool access, guests can enjoy lunch at the nearby Eagle Nest Cabanas and use their pool for free. We also recommend visiting Mangrove Beach for its natural pool and ocean swimming.
