Family-friendly vacation rentals in Aluthgama

We stayed at Madampe for Christmas, it was one of the best stays for all of us. The villa is prettier and bigger that in the pictures, pool was clean all the time, very beautiful trees and flowers. The hosts were amazing, very friendly and attentive, they also cooked us amazing dishes for a very good price. It was very peaceful and homey, the beach is literally 5 minute walk from villa and we saw the most amazing sunsets. One thing I would suggest is that if you’re planning to visit Madampe house make sure to bring mosquito repellant spray. Other than that everything was beyond our expectations!

It is impossible to sum up just how welcome we were made to feel from the minute we arrived until departure. The villa was beautiful and the pool exquisite- large to relax and swim and spotlessly clean . The inside exactly as described. But the experience was made special due to the wonderful staff, Gihan and his team, who could not do more to make the stay so special. Beautiful breakfasts showcasing Sri Lankan specialities and home cooked food for dinner if wanted for a reasonable cost. He also drove willingly to nearby Hikkaduwa so able to eat out on as many nights as one wanted. However they also respected guests desire for privacy - a difficult balance to achieve. They went above and beyond anything we might have hoped for. The villa is a little remote but one knows that before booking and the tranquility more than made up for the inability to walk to restaurants. I would highly recommend and would return in a heartbeat.

Beautiful garden view and perfect location near the beach. This place is ideal for families, as well as for those who enjoy yoga, morning rituals, or simply a peaceful retreat. It’s located on the quieter side of Weligama Beach, which makes it perfect if you're looking to relax away from the crowds. The owner is genuinely friendly and helpful, making the stay even more pleasant. Highly recommended for anyone seeking a calm and cozy spot close to nature and the ocean.

The Palm Beach Villa was absolutely amazing! Piyal, the house manager, was waiting for us at the airport, and drove us to the Villa, even tho we arrived early in the morning. There was a wonderful breakfast waiting for us upon our arrival. Piyal and Sujami took such great care of us during the day, and Sumith was there all night, which made us feel very safe. We weren't expecting the high level of pampering we received from the 3 of them. It really made our stay truly relaxing. The Villa and grounds are beautiful! The dogs were an added surprise, and were definitely part of the experience :) The pool was heavenly! The beach was right there!!! and was so beautiful and virtually empty! Watching and helping with the morning fishermen was an experience we will never forget! The location is so private, but close enough to many of the island's attractions. Piyal was a gracious host, driver, and AMAZING cook!!! Sujami was so sweet and helpful. Sumith was great! Will def be back!

The villa is in a beautiful surroundings, overlooking a rice field. The villa is very spacious with swimming private pool. We thouroughly enjoyed out stay here. Christa was very helpful. The helper onsite is really very helpful, and responsive. Only negative I would say is it was far from attractions and main city. Beach is around 4 kms and getting a transport here is a challenge. Booking vehicles in advance to move around could help. The approach road is narrow around 100 mts from the main road.

One of our all-time favourite accomodations, from over 40 countries visited. What we loved: - falling asleep with the sound of waves, which was perfect (not too loud, not too low) - our mornings and sunsets on the terrace of the building - the location inside the forest, and on top of the cliffs - nature all around us, with nice fauna (varan, monkeys, peacocks, small birds) visiting us. Don’t worry, there is nothing dangerous, they avoid people - The access to the cliff which is just a couple of steps away from the villas. Very good place for sunsets and meditation after - The pool is really nice for relaxing swimming at the end of the day - Near 2 beaches : Jungle beach (amaaaazing place) and Unawatuna beach, also very nice - Small cozy restaurants just outside the villas - A lot of space inside, very comfortable beds & pillows - The host and personnel are top-notch. Hospitality at next level. It was my wife’s 25th birthday and they helped us make it memorable. Great experience!

Everything is great, help with all questions, bikes and other questions . I knocked out the internet a couple of times, but the guys fixed it. The pool is clean and in hot weather it solves a lot 😌

We traveled as a group of 6 to Villa Acres Green for a one-night getaway. The place was truly beyond our expectations and the pictures don’t do justice to the place! The property is spacious and gives you a sense of seclusion from the rest of the world. The vast garden is scattered with lots of trees, a pond and a well maintained lawn with benches and hammocks for a nice evening chill. The pool is much bigger than you’d expect and was clean. The tiles in the pool are starting to break so a little caution would be advised. We opted to get our food prepared at the property. The BBQ dinner was excellent, but the Sri Lankan breakfast (kiri bath) was only average. It’s possible that the food maybe a hit of miss in our experience. The rooms were nice; spacious and clean! The A/C cooled well which was more than appreciated since the days were scorching! All in all, we had a fantastic experience at the property and would highly recommend it to anyone travelling to Hikkaduwa.

We rented the Moss Villa for a whole month and absolutely loved it. The garden and pool are beautiful and well maintained — a peaceful oasis just 5 minutes by bicycle from awesome surf spots and Ahangama town. It’s quiet, yet close enough to walk or cycle anywhere, with tuk-tuks always available too. The villa had everything we needed: comfy beds, a fully equipped kitchen, good Wi-Fi, and a stunning outdoor area. Our 3-year-old also had a great time! The owners were wonderful — great communication from booking to checkout and always helpful during our stay. We’d definitely come back and highly recommend it!

Amazing place. One of our best stays after using Airbnb for years. Loved the place, great location, such helpful hosts. Would come back in a heartbeat.

We really felt extremely comfortable at Chami's place. The property is actually integrated between the trees and into nature. What was absolutely new to us at first became cozy very quickly. Not least because the staff are really friendly, accommodating and lovely people. The breakfast has been extensive, individually designed and very tasty. So paired with the ambiance so a great start of the day! Our room was simple, but this was completely sufficient for our purposes. Everything necessary is definitely available and the ceiling fan also ensures enough cooling. For those who like, the nature shower is also a great experience - with luck you even get a look at monkeys! Despite a few small holes in the mosquito net, it has totally served its purpose & if you sleep with earplugs, you also have no problem with the ambient noise. Anyone in Hikkaduwa should definitely make a stop here!

Loved the visit to the Villa for our 2nd week in Sri Lanka. Madara and Amila were great housekeepers and the previews reviews were correct amazing home cooked food, I would say better curries than the restaurants and done just your liking and whatever we wanted they made for us. Amazing. Very accommodating to our needs, even though they live on site they gave us enough privacy to not let it affect us. I would definitely recommend this villa. The one criticism I would have is that the neighbourhood was quite noisy, dogs barking even in the middle of the night (luckily we brought ear plugs) the man selling bread and the tune he played all the time. Lots of fireworks going off from 7am in the morning due to it approaching New Year and noise from other houses, music etc but it may be again because of the New Year approaching and people celebrating and then all the nature sounds (which we love) - it didn’t really bother us too much but thought I would Mention this if want peace/quiet

Absolutely magical place. If you are a nature lover, this is a dream come true. Me and my husband stayed in Ganguli for 10 nights and we loved every second of it. Gonapinuwala is close enough to the beach and nearest bigger town - Hikkaduwa, but at the same time it is far enough to be in a calm place, away from other tourists. The garden that surrounds the house is natural, so it feels like living in a beautiful jungle, with monkeys jumping on the trees and endemic birds sitting on the branches (Sri Lanka Grey Hornbill visited us!). But you shouldn't worry, it never feels unsafe, we've never seen any dangerous animals or anything like that. Chandana and Krishna are unbelievably helpful and kind, they just made us feel like home. They are always ready to give advice or organize transport. I hope they will read it, so Chandana and Krishna, let me thank you again! You made our trip even more exceptional. You are the best!

We had a really nice time in Karin hair. Everything is perfectly fine and clean! Nice beach within walking distance and everything is easily accessible with the tuktuk driver. Sathish the house manager was very friendly and easily accessible with questions.

We had the most wonderful stay at Etamba House. This Geoffrey Bawa inspired property is beautiful and even better than the photos suggest. The rooms are huge and tastefully decorated with an elegant nod to Sri Lanka's past. The bathrooms are inside/outside with beautiful showers and plenty of space. The service from Michael and Shehan was exceptional. Breakfast is different each day with a set menu but they're flexible to your requests. the dinner that Talakshi prepares is wonderful (the portions are huge!). Can't say anything bad about this place. Go and stay there. Enjoy this beautiful home and the peace and quiet that surrounds it.

This is an amazing union with the ocean… We loved it…! Leaving the villa you find yourself right on the wide endless beach… There are not many people, the view is gorgeous…! We had a great time with two couples at the villa! We were lucky with the weather! There is beauty, noise and energy of the ocean all around! I want to come back again!

Our stay at Wigis villa was wonderful. The villa itself is located in a perfect spot allowing you immediate access to the beach as well as the Main Street with all its cafes, shops and restaurants, on the other side. The villa is a haven of tranquility, in the middle of the hustle and bustle of the town. Inside, the house is fully equipped and very well kept. The garden was beautiful and our children had many hours of fun in the lovely pool. Lastly what really made it great was the excellent team on hand. The team prepared beautiful breakfasts each day, together with lunch and dinners on request. Nothing was too much trouble for them. Thank you for a wonderful stay. We hope to be back!

Our family of four absolutely loved Cecilia’s house. It is located in the middle of the paddy fields with lots of nature and wild life to enjoy. During our three day stay we saw peacocks, fireflies, giant lizards, squirrels, monkeys and a giant spider! Just be warned that there are also many mosquitos in the house so bring your bug spray. Cecilia’s staff were also very attentive who prepared us nice Sri Lankan dishes for breakfast and dinner. They made our kids separate western dishes. Thank you Cecilia!

Coconut tree villa is such a special place. The location is really incredible, so peaceful, surrounded by jungle with birds, monkeys and peacocks. Our children loved the pool and were made to feel like royalty by the staff on site. We had a few lovely meals prepared by the lovely ladies for extra cost. Roshan the tuk tuk driver took us to the market to choose some fish, but beware, we were scammed when we went ventured off from him to buy fruit, spending £17 on a few items! The town is a 5 min tuk tuk ride away and we paid 600 ruppee each way, directly to Roshan. We were provided with a mobile and we just called him once we had finished at the beach and he arrived in miniutes. Lesley is a fantastic host, and responded to our requests. We had the most incredible start to our trip and wished we had booked longer, we cant wait to return to CTN!

Serene place, no amount of words can match with the feeling of the place. very thoughtfully designed and decorated.

Henry and everyone at Villa 80 was extremely lovely and welcoming. The place is a great find, really good location, amazing pool, the list goes on and on. We were visiting for a friend's wedding and was so glad Henry could accommodate us. Would highly recommend and return. Thank you Henry!

Sathish’s property is in a very nice peaceful location and a pleasant 20 minute walk to Turtle beach. The main shopping area of Unawatuna is about 4 km away and easy to get to by tuk tuk. The swimming pool is very refreshing and the house had everything our family of four needed for a very enjoyable stay. Highly recommended especially if you prefer a peaceful setting.

Gizelle was a super-host and actively helped us to plan a fortnight adventure in Sri Lanka 🇱🇰 providing lots of tips and advice on what experiences and excursions there were, with an exquisite level of detail. We used many of her recommendations and were never disappointed. The villa manager and personal, professional chef Chaminda -was beyond attentive, always supporting and helping us with advice, and made the most AMAZING meals! We felt very spoilt and we loved the extensive range of meals and cuisines provided. A truly lovely and special man. All journeys and travel were arranged for us, and Kosala was an attentive driver for us, always telling us about the local attractions and sights with his extensive knowledge. The children adored him, and our son Leo would love to chat to him whilst he cleaned the pool. We came for my 40th bday where Chaminda decorated the villa for us and organised a cultural evening which was outstanding, and Gizelle even bought me a birthday cake 🥰Thank
