Waterfront vacation rentals in Colombo

The apartment is in a perfect location. Walking distance to 2 supermarkets, shopping mall, the bakery and restaurant, etc. Nice view from a window of Colombo city.

I had a wonderful stay at the Airbnb apartment in Aquria, Nawala. The place was spotless, modern, and had everything I needed for a comfortable visit. It’s in a peaceful location but still close to shops and restaurants. The host was friendly and responsive throughout. My only hiccup was with one security guard—short guy with sunglasses—who seemed to forget I was staying there and gave me a bit of a challenge getting in a few times. All part of the adventure, I suppose! Still, I’d definitely recommend this place and would happily stay again. Thanks to Seth and team for everything! 😊

For the dehiwala apartment review : The apartment was clean and well presented. We enjoyed watching the sunset each evening from the balconies which all have an ocean view. The location was great, the bedrooms and aircon comfortable and the bathrooms were clean & fresh. The hosts were responsive and flexible giving us a late check-out as there was no booking after us. The assistant organised for check-in and check-in was easy to liaise with.

Good place to stay , very central

Excellent location. Very clean. Properly organised. Quick response from the host. We got some amazing local tips from the host hat helped us dine at some of the best restaurants in Colombo. Highly recommend!

The apartment is conveniently located close to all the amenities. The apartment was clean and modern with all the necessary facilities for a comfy stay. Chiran and his farther was able to ready the place on a very short notice and really thankful for that. Had a wonderful stay and would highly recommend the place for a stay in Colombo.

My family and I had a wonderful stay at Rahan's place. It was really clean and comfortable. Rahan is very helpful with any enquiries. The neighbourhood is very nice too, with access to restaurants like barista and burgerking and a grocery store just a walk away.

Amazing apartment. It truly made our stay special. The ocean view is absolutely stunning, and we loved waking up to it every day. The place is beautifully furnished, super clean, and thoughtfully maintained. It had everything we needed — from kitchen essentials to other modern amenities that made us feel right at home. The location is perfect too, with easy access to supermarkets, restaurants, and other essentials just a short walk away. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay. Thank you, Cheryl, for your warm hospitality and seamless arrangements.

This house is a hidden gem in Colombo. It’s very tasteful and well furnished, with an incredible backyard overlooking the water. We didn’t feel like leaving the home. The hosts were very welcoming and helpful. Would definitely recommend!

Wow, what a fantastic place! I loved it so much.

When we selected this house for a two day stay -for a very much needed rest- along the river, we expected to be there by ourselves (a couple). But after arrival it seemed that we were only renting a room in the house of the owner(s) and the caretaker. So we were supposed to share kitchen, living room and other facilities. This was not how this Airbnb was 'sold' to us on the Airbnb site. i am sure that this did not happen with any bad intention. Once we expressed our disappointment, without any doubt, Gayani gave us a full refund. Otherwise all is well with the house. View is great. Gayani is a super kind person. So all is well except for the fact that you are not renting a whole house but just a room in the house of a Sri Lankan family. If that is what you are looking for, I can fully recommend this place.

Very spacious villa with a great view. The pool was amazing.

The host is enthusiastic.

One of our best holidays . The place was so peaceful and beautiful. The host Isuri and caretaker Shelton are really nice and helpful. We had a very relaxing weekend with our friends. This is really a hidden gem in the busy town of Moratuwa . Thank you !

This was a hidden gem for sure and glad we found it . Looking for a place close to the airport to unwind and prepare for our next flight we booked into this beautiful place. The experience from the get go was pleasant . The host was very responsive and accommodated our requests . What we loved the most about this place is the quaint surroundings and the beautiful green patches with lakes inside this gated community . It was very private and peaceful. We enjoyed our evening walks and the accommodation itself was well equipped and very comfortable. Thanks once again to the host for the help in making our stay memorable. Highly recommend this place and the host . Cheers

Clean and very organized. Loved the place

Absolutely loved my stay at this apartment! It was beautifully furnished, very clean, and had everything I needed for a comfortable visit. The location was ideal and safe neighborhood. The host was attentive and made sure I had a smooth experience from start to finish. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a hassle-free and relaxing stay!

Where to start, what a great host, cozy place, felt serenity and place like more than home. Since i booked n approached her, she was very responsive , allowed early check in. She has decorated each n every item in the apartment with special attention and theme. Right from main door till all rooms, beach theme pillows, wall decoration, special souvenirs from across the world, beach theme kitchen cabinets. The place is just few meters from beach, great views of the sun set and beach around and roof top pool of course is a main attraction.. I am thankful to her for being such a great host I would not even think to go anywhere else next time i am in Colombo .

Located in the heart of the city, walking distance to Colombo city centre shopping mall, bakery and a super store. The master bedroom gives almost 180 degree paraomic views of the city , the lake and the sea. Well curated interior designs gives a grand guesture . The host Chathura is very responsive and flexible. I'd love to come back and no hesitation to recommend this place for any guests looking for a luxury apartment in Colombo city centre.

Amazing value, perfect for what we needed. Right next to the beautiful Kelaniya Raja Maha Viharaya temple. Living area very big and spacious. nice to have a full kitchen set up and dining table. large bedrooms and bathrooms too. the host was very kind and friendly. would definitely recommend!

Happy Journey in Colombo.

A little far from the city centre but worth it to stay by the beach

We really enjoyed our at the appartment. The host Jenifer was there to meet and at the arrival and showed us everything in detail which made us feel at home.

I had a wonderful two-night stay at this place. The place was clean, comfortable, and exactly as described. The host was responsive and made the experience hassle-free. Highly recommended!
