Vacation rentals with lake access in Hambantota

Lake Villa is a very private and relaxing environment. If you need a wind down from the hustle and bustle of the city this is a good spot. Extremely peaceful and calm environment with nature all around. We even had peacocks walk by in the garden. During our holiday this is the last place we stayed at and hands down the best food and service. We were looked after very well. Highly recommend 👌

We slept three nights in this wonderful house and it was amazing! The hosts are very nice and accommodating. They have the best breakfast in Sri Lanka and they will try to fulfill all your wishes. It was really great. We would always come back!

We had the best time in Ajith's amazing treehouse, which is built in and around a giant Mango tree. The treehouse itself is marvel and absolutely beautifully crafted. It feels spacious, yet cosy inside and we wanted for nothing. We loved spending time out on the deck watching beautiful birds and playful squirrels jumping through the trees and feasting on fruit that Ajith leaves for them. The property as a whole is beautiful and full of wonderful fruit and spice trees. Ajith is also a talented and passionate gardener and we had several conversations about about our shared love of gardening and botany. Ajith was a kind and friendly host, as was another gentleman who was always present to provide us with anything we needed or provide us with tips and advice for activities. They were so considerate, bringing mosquito coils or tea up into the treehouse for us. Also, the food we had for breakfast and dinner was exceptional, the best we have had in our two weeks in Sri Lanka. We fell in love.

Staying in Treat Villa was an experience beyond anything. Chamii and his family take Sri Lankan hospitality to a whole new level. Nothing was any trouble. They catered, they provided, they were excellent company and they had interesting suggestions for activities with offers of help to make them happen. The peaceful villa is lovely to stay in and very well maintained. It would be a pleasure to return on a future visit.

We had a lovely stay at Mawella House! The house itself is beautifully decorated & very clean. Communication with Dinesh was easy & smooth! Chaminda is a great chef & always warmly welcomed us. The area around is super chill, with one of the most beautiful beaches a step away. Small paradise! Would definitely recommend. Thanks again for the warm stay!

We had an amazing stay here, the host is extremely responsive and friendly. Check in was smooth and welcoming especially during a horrendous thunderstorm. We were welcomed with towels to clean our faces and a lemon juice which was lovely. We booked our yala safari through the host which was INCREDIBLE! Cannot recommend booking through these enough, we were beyond lucky to see 2 leopards which was all down to our fantastic driver. Cabanas were spacious and clean, the bed was huge and so comfy. If we ever return to Sri Lanka we would definitely stay here again!

The stay was nice. The place was as described in the pictures. If you like to be in nature, you will love it here. The host handled our requests, was very helpful and communication was straightforward. There was also a parking space for our tuktuk.

After staying in 30+ Airbnbs over the past 3 years, we can easily say Nuwan’s place is the best. We loved having coffee on the private balconies (there are 2, 1 facing rice fields & the other the lake) while watching buffalo, toucans, peacocks & monkeys (who don’t bother you!). The space is HUGE, with plenty of areas to work. The air con is strong in the bedrooms, & they provide filtered water, so no need to buy plastic. Cleaning & washing are excellent. The location is epic, surrounded by stunning scenery, yet only 15 mins from the best beach(!) in Sri Lanka—Silent Beach. There are cooking utensils, veggies from the garden, & it’s 10 mins to town, but you can also order food from them (which we genuinely think is the best restaurant in Tangalle!). Finally, Nuwan, Piyumi, their funny, smart daughter Emly, & the grandparents are the kindest people—from rescuing baby peacocks to helping us tailor clothes, to watching fireflies. Just book it! We miss everyone + the dogs so much already.
