I had a fantastic stay at the Summer house close to Colombo airport. Everything was perfect, and I highly recommend staying here after a long flight or before heading back home. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming. It was a real pleasure to meet the owner and her father-in-law, who both took time to personally say hello. Saying hi to her adorable dog next door made my day extra special! I will definitely return when I’m back in Sri Lanka!

We had the pleasure of staying three nights at The Travellers Rest with our family, and it was truly a special experience from start to finish. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, and it felt more like staying with friends than at a hotel. The rooms were clean, cozy, and perfect for our family’s needs. Everything was thoughtfully arranged to make us feel comfortable and relaxed during our stay. Each morning, we enjoyed a thoughtful and delicious breakfast, lovingly prepared with a variety of options to suit everyone in the family. The attention to detail and care in each meal was something we truly appreciated. What made our stay truly unforgettable, though, was the incredible kindness and hospitality of the owner’s family. They were always ready to help with anything we needed and went out of their way to make sure we were happy and comfortable. A very special thank you to their beautiful three girls, whose warmth, smiles, and gentle presence made our visit even more memorable. They are a lovely family that we will never forget. The Travellers Rest is more than just a place to stay—it’s a place filled with heart. We’re so grateful for the experience and would absolutely love to return one day.

Villa Sea Breeze

Laura

From

United Kingdom

Villa sea breeze was such a a lovely place to stay for our last couple of nights in Sri Lanka. It's in a great location for the airport and the beach/lagoon but very quiet. The pool was huge and deep enough for a proper swim. The outdoor area was really well done and it was lovely to have the space to ourselves. The villa bedrooms are decorated really nicely with lots of Sri Lanka art and felt very homely. The beds were huge and really comfy and the aircon was great and very quiet. The owner met us with the keys and showed us round. There was a great functioning kitchen with tea/coffee and milk provided and cold water. Nothing too much trouble as usual in this wonderful country. We ordered lunch to be delivered by the pool, from a local restaurant (Uber eats tuk tuk!!) and both evenings went to Dutch Trails restaurant by the lagoon. This was very classy and lots of seafood and other western and Sri kankan dishes. But very reasonable price and of course great service. The villa owner arranged for a tuk tuk for us to get there would highly recommend for a bit if r and r before or after the airport.

The hosts are a very helpful and kind people. They were accomodating with what time they cooked us breakfast and took us to the airport, which were both free of charge. We stayed here for one night before our morning flight home, I highly recommend this accomodation for an airport transit stay.
