Vacation rentals in Kuda Oya

Wow what can I say this place was amazing. We stayed for 5 night and enjoyed every second of it. The accommodation worked well, we are a family of 4 and so used the two ground level rooms which had double beds, their own bathroom, AC and plenty of space. The communal areas were lovely and there was lots of seating and a great pool. Fehim and Naasir who work at the house were brilliant always making sure we didn't need anything, checking about food choices and helping to arrange transport when needed. The food was really good and we ate 11 amazing meals, cooked to preferences and discussed in advance. We chose to try Sri Lanka food and are so glad that we did, we tried so many amazing dishes and drinks. We booked safari's to Yala and Bundala in advance with Sabirah.

Simple but clean bedrooms, friendly staff and gorgeous pool area!

Our family had a wonderful stay at this villa! The view was absolutely breathtaking and provided the perfect backdrop for a relaxing getaway. The staff were amazing—always attentive, friendly, and responsive to all our requests, including accommodating the needs of our toddler, which we greatly appreciated. A standout feature of our stay was the amazing cocktails! They were expertly crafted and added a special touch to our evenings as we enjoyed the stunning scenery. Additionally, the staff guided us to a beautiful local waterfall, where we had a fantastic time exploring and enjoying nature. It was a memorable highlight of our trip. The only area for improvement is the food. While it was decent, we’d love to see more fresh vegetables included in the menu to enhance the dining experience. Overall, it was a delightful stay, and we’d definitely recommend this villa for anyone looking for a peaceful and scenic retreat with top-notch hospitality, and opportunities to explore local beauty

I found my Sri Lankan home at this beautiful space!! Loved every minute I was there, the views are incredible, waking up every morning with a cuppaaa tea in bed looking at the mountains uhh just paradise. If you are looking to be in nature, for calm, serenity.. this is your place! Chittra became like family when we were there, she is so friendly, warm and welcoming to her home and cares that you have a wonderful stay, oh and please try her food, it’s incredible!! I also fell in love with her doggies, who are super friendly and kind, they even come walking with you. Book now, you will love ittt!!xoxox

We thoroughly enjoyed staying here and my daughters were excited to have their own little house! It was well set up with a restaurant across the road for breakfast, lunch or dinner, and also packed breakfast for the safari if needed. The hosts were very friendly and showed us lots of birds and animals in the lush garden. They also shared badminton nets and cricket bats for our daughters to play and put up big hammocks to relax in. They were able to arrange everything such as the safari tour, a trip to the local Buddhist temple and to see a colony of fruit bats, and a car to our next destination. I’d recommend going for the 6 hour safari as you can go a bit further into the park and not be around as many jeeps. We saw elephants, mongoose, monitor lizards, the giant Sri Lankan squirrel, crocodiles, wallowing buffalo and 20+ kinds of birds. Recommended as a place to stay near the safari park entrance.

Absolutely stunning Cabin close to the river. Perfect place for a little romantic get away. Also the service of the host was incredible, even brought us food in the heavy rain.

Staying at Mashita's place was a serene escape from the hustle and bustle. Surrounded by stunning scenery, it's the perfect spot to unwind and reconnect with nature. The tranquil ambiance truly allows you to unplug and rejuvenate your senses. Highly recommend for a peaceful getaway! Hosts truly elevated our experience. They were incredibly friendly, responsive, and always went above and beyond to ensure our comfort. Their impeccable manners and genuine care for their guests made us feel welcome from the moment we arrived. It's rare to find such a gracious host, and we're grateful for their warmth and attentiveness throughout our stay.

This airbnb was a highlight of our trip. Came here to hike devil’s staircase to the waterfall. The view through the valley and all the way out to Udawalawe national park is stunning. And the staff there were so attentive always offering tea and offering to pack a breakfast when we were going on a hike early in the AM which was really helpful. The room was simple and clean and cool at night due to being in the mountains. Cool enough i wore a sweater outside. Food was delicious, sri lankan dinner was one of our best on the trip. They also provided insider knowledge on local hikes which was great when we had an extra morning and wanted to get one more hike in. Note that it is not easy to get to! Recommend either hiring an SUV or being dropped at the train station and going the rest of the way by tuk tuk which can handle the uneven road and steep decline much better. Overall highly recommend

We stayed in Sujees house for three days. The most beautiful thing is the jungles around. The house is situated in the heart of the forest with the little river just 10 meters away. You can bathe in the river when it is hot outside and have a 1-2 hours walk along it's bank through the jungles. Sujee is very hospital and friendly
