一个大庄园,环境非常别致优美,里面有椰林,芒果树,杨桃树……地段也非常棒,紧邻海边,服务非常热情,宾至如归,也非常个性化,因为去观鲸回来晚了,多给我们一间房子延迟退房。可惜在酒店呆的时间还不够多,没有足够时间享受这么美好的环境。非常推荐。

LucyRating, 5 stars2 months ago
PERFECT !!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Sahan and family are so lovely and greeted us with a coconut each on arrival. Throughout our stay they have been so friendly and even invited us to their family meals but sadly we already had plans with family visiting us so couldn’t attend. The location is wonderful, right opposite the beach and in the heart of Madiha close to everything. The decor and cleanliness of the property was a 10/10. The listed amenities and property description is spot on and we were not disappointed. We really wanted to extend as we loved it so much but unfortunately it was already booked up so we have arranged to come back next season to see them & stay again!Thank you so much, we can’t wait to come back again :)

We had a great time here! Close to beautiful beaches, a range of restaurants and cafes, about a 10 min walk to Hiriketiya beach. The place was spacious and all we needed for a 4 night stay. Big bathroom, and a 10 liter box of water included, a kettle and a small fridge. We only met the host brightly for check in, but he responded quickly if we texted him. Would recommend this place!

Dulshan and Lisa's vacation rental is a very cool flat with a very high design. It seems to have just been completed, so everything is new and clean, which surprised me. It was very comfortable, so I extended my stay longer. The location is also perfect, just 1-2 minutes from Hiriketiya beach. There are many restaurants, cafes, grocery stores and liquor stores around the vacation rental, so it's perfect. The Hiriketiya surf break is just around the corner that perfect lefthander peel off from the cape. Dulshan and Lisa are very quick to respond to messages, so any problems you have can be resolved instantly. Hiriketiya is an up-and-coming beach resort that can be enjoyed by all ages and genders.

Sehr schöner Ort, um gemütlich am Strand zu liegen und sich zu entspannen. Die Surfschule nebenan ist auch sehr zu empfehlen. Hier kann man Entspannung und Action super miteinander vereinen. Die Unterkunft war sauber, das Frühstück (Buffet) lecker und das Team vor Ort sehr nett und hilfsbereit. Können es sehr empfehlen😊

This suite was so much better than we expected. We booked through air bnb as seemed safer than booking direct and so glad we did. Ulrike gave us all the information we needed for a smoothness stay and was able to step in and help when we needed it. The apartment is amazingly well set up and so big! We have 3 kids and they were able to provide an extra bed the same size as the first two. It’s not obvious how great the location is but it’s literally right on the beach. We went often to a restaurant nearby called Sana which we absolutely loved, then walked down to the beach to enjoy the campfires down there afterwards. 100% recommend staying here.

SvetlanaRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Nous avons passé un très bon moment chez Luca. La maison a tout ce dont vous avez besoin pour passer un excellent repos. Vous pourrez observer les quelques animaux qui se promènent librement dans le jardin. La piscine est un gros plus dans la chaleur du Sri Lanka. La maison est incroyablement propre et les gens qui y travaillent sont très gentils. Nimesh vous aidera avec toutes vos questions, vous pouvez le contacter à tout moment. Il nous a emmenés changer de l'argent, nous a montré où se trouvaient les meilleurs endroits pour dîner et a organisé toutes les excursions pour nous. Il s'est également occupé de notre voyage et est venu nous chercher à l'aéroport. Tout le long, nous avons pu profiter des merveilleux dîners préparés par Nirosha dont un excellent barbecue de fruits de mer. La maison est très bien placée : seulement à quelques pas de la plage et de tous les restaurants/boutiques. N’hésitez pas à réserver votre séjour au sein de cette maison, c’est un véritable petit paradis.

4.83 out of 5 average rating, 6 reviewsInfinity pool villa, sea views!
JohnRating, 5 stars3 months ago
an excellent property, just as good as the photos. watching the sun go down over the water from the Infiniti pool each evening was a dream. all rooms are large and spacious. the all glass construction maximizes the beautiful views from every part of the property. the on site staff were very helpful and attentive. with the property being large and elevated, it was one of the few locations we were able to play music loud on the large speaker we brought, both indoors and outdoors, whenever we wanted without having to worry about disturbing neighbors too much which was great. the only negative is with all that glass the building can become a bit of a greenhouse in the hot sri lankan sun. A/C is sufficient in the bedrooms but it can get a bit uncomfortably hot in the main living room in the afternoons even with the A/C on max all day. Dinesh informed us they are working on adding additional A/C. In all, a fantastic stay, would definitely stay again, especially great for large groups.

agnesRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Deuxième séjour à Villa Vador et ce fut une nouvelle fois un séjour inoubliable. Mes enfants et petits-enfants ont adoré admirer la faune et la flore. Stephen et son équipe managée par Sasun sont formidables. La villa est très belle et le jardin est merveilleux. Nous n’avions pas envie de partir et espérons revenir dès que possible…

JasonRating, 5 stars2 months ago
Asanka was a great host. He was super helpful, from the moment he picked us up from the train station. He showed us his city, and clearly explained everything about his apartment. The house is spacious, with plenty of room to spread out. There's a comfortable lounge and TV, while the bed was really cosy. The Wifi was excellent, and the location was perfect for us, close to the bus, but nice and quiet, with loads of birds and squirrels. The balcony was our favorite spot for meals, which we often prepared in the kitchen. We would return here without hesitation.

GauravRating, 5 stars2 months ago
beautiful property and location that gives Bali vibes in srilanka. photos and amenities are accurate. staff at the property are very helpful all the time. breakfast was provided. walkable to a small private beach only single complaint is that the 2 rooms that have 2 single beds are very difficult for adults to fit into so we have a tough time adjusting with that, for kids those 2 twin bed rooms should be perfect
