Family-friendly vacation rentals in Talalla

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。

The place was lovely, right on the river front and absolutely peaceful. Its also very close to the beach and we would definitely recommend the place. Somehow the tuktuk price around the area were pretty outrageous, so if you have a rented or owned vehicle, it’ll make things a lot easier but that’s not on the host, they were absolutely amazing.

We had a fantastic 10-day break at this beautiful villa. The setting is amazing, overlooking the infinity of the Indian Ocean, with the calming sound of the crashing waves. The sea was too rough for a swim but the beach was perfect for a walk. The garden is lovely, the pool is a welcome escape from the heat and the house itself is spacious enough for everyone not to be in each other's way. We had so much fun during our stay - massages in the garden, wandering the neighbourhood and meeting the locals, visiting nearby beaches (Dickwella beach was our favourite, especially with young kids), safari, releasing baby turtles in the sea, boat trips, etc.... Last but certainly not least - the lovely staff. The hospitality offered by Suneetha, Ajith and Ari was truly special. They are all lovely and looked after us so well. Apart from the delicious food they prepared daily, they arranged our trips, transport, etc. It was hard to leave and tears were shed at the end. We'll be back, for sure!

This house is excellent! Place, nature, beach, and all of things are very comfortable and nearby the house. When we were planning our trip we looked at photos of this house and thought that it is smaller and has small garden, BUT there is a big garden with hammock and beautiful lights outside, the house is very big. We’ve saw a lot of friendly black monkeys, peacocks, chipmunks and other animals - it’s awesome. When you planning to live in this house - you should have no doubts - it is modern, comfortable and friendly place with GREAT host Ravindra! He became our friend and helped in all things that we’ve asked. Thanks a lot, my friend, we’ll try to get back! На русском: Друзья, фотографии дома принижают его крутость, все гораздо лучше, чем на фото. Есть большой сад, до «плавательного» пляжа максимум 5 минут пешком, магазинчики рядом, все удобно, до Велигамы 10 минут на тук-туке, до Мириссы 20 минут на тук-туке. Рядом с виллой пляж для сёрфинга и куча прикольных мест, например Чики Манки. Хозяин Равиндра просто топовый. Если думаете об этой вилле - берите смело, она очень хорошая, в доме есть все необходимое. Рядом есть домик, где живут местные - они очень добрые и помогают по дому (убираются и ухаживают за садом). В саду есть гамак, а возможно, скоро появится бассейн, так говорил хозяин Равиндра. Прожили в ней месяц в восьмером - все было круто. Рекомендуем однозначно.

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!

Me and my girlfriend stayed here for three months. We had a wonderful time here. Dharme and his wife are very friendly. They tried their best to make it as comfortable as possible for us. We would definitely recommend this place.

A very perfect accommodation experience. This is the cleanest house we have ever stayed in. There is no dust anywhere visible to the naked eye or in any corner. The landlord, Jeewantha, is very warm and friendly. The house has all the facilities and kitchen utensils you need. It is within walking distance of the beach and there are many restaurants nearby. It is a perfect holiday choice

Great place, especially the pool, AC and fans. Well located within short walking distance of Ahangama main street. Close to Rolling Pin (200m), which is a great bakery - can recommend the croissants and brownies. Also close to O Yummy, a restaurant serving fabulous Lebanese food, including delivery at a small extra cost (300LKR) - beats Uber Eats. Also convenient to both Pilates studios in Ahangama, being Pura Pilates and Ulu Pilates. With all of these amenities close, it is still private, quiet and well set up with very helpful host, including his family helping out. The pool is an absolute bonus when you get hot ‘n sweaty and the hot water to rinse after is lovely. Would recommend without hesitation for a great stay in Ahangama, or on the South Coast generally.

The location of the house was absolutely stunning. Right on the beach which was empty and felt like our own was dreamy, peaceful and idyllic. Lakmal, Dulan and Nihal were so helpful and attentive to all our needs. The breakfasts and dinners Lakmal made every day were absolutely stunning! We had so much variety and a real taste of Sri Lankan cuisine. They looked after us so well and arranged tuk tuks for us when we wanted them. It’s worth taking toiletries as these weren’t provided but honestly i would absolutely recommend this house as a great base to do a morning safari and enjoy the peaceful surrounds. Great value for money!

Nous avons beaucoup apprécié ces quelques jours chez Nilu. Jolie maison, joli jardin, Nilu et sa famille on été très accueillants. Idéalement située, à quelques minutes de kabalana beach dans un quartier légèrement en retrait de l’effervescence de la côte. Merci !!

What a find! This Dutch colonial beachfront villa was perfect for our adult family escape. The historical charm is incredible - you really feel Ceylon’s colonial past while enjoying modern luxury. The food was absolutely outstanding. Having meals cooked specifically for us felt so special - no crowds, just beautiful dishes prepared exactly how we wanted. The chef clearly knew their craft, and those leisurely dinners together were pure magic. Staff were wonderful - attentive but never intrusive, creating that perfect sophisticated atmosphere. No kids meant we could fully appreciate the villa’s elegance and that serene beachfront setting. Dining on colonial verandas with ocean breezes, excellent food, and great conversation flowing - it felt like our own private historical retreat. Perfect for adults wanting something truly refined and peaceful. Already planning our return!​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

The best thing about August beach house is it's location..sits right on the beach with lots of nice bars, restaurants and surf schools nearby. The staff were very kind and courteous and they keet the place squeaky clean through out our stay.

Loved our stay at Villa Sepalika! The location is amazing - an oasis of calm and green with the odd peacock and monkey to add to the tropical holiday! The pool is outstanding and the lawn is great for games (if you can tear yourself away from the beautiful big verandah!). The staff were lovely - they made sure we had everything we needed and the cook was superb! Thank you for a lovely stay and we look forward to the next time!

Fantastic last 5 says What an amazing lady my host is. Felt at home very and veey safe. makes the best curry lve ever tasted. cant wait to come back and see everyone miss you guys already x

We hadden een heel leuke tijd in Karin haar. Alles is perfect in orde en schoon! Leuk strand op wandelafstand en alles is gemakkelijk bereikbaar met de tuktuk driver. Sathish de house manager was heel vriendelijk en gemakkelijk bereikbaar bij vragen.

We’ve just come back from an amazing trip to Sri Lanka, and we stayed for 6 nights at Gaya’s wonderful home. We loved it; the location feels remote, but it’s only a 10min walk to the beach/restaurants etc. Every morning I’d wake up and have a coffee on the veranda, overlooking lush greenery, peacocks, cattle - not something you get in everyday life. The staff were very helpful, and the accommodation was comfortable, clean, and is a wonderful option if you’re looking for a self-catering home stay. A big thank you to Gaya for letting us stay, we hope to be back soon!

I had a very good stay at Jacky's place. The room was quite large with a full functioning kitchen and living room. The bathroom is large as well, hosting a convenient washing machine . The shower had excellent water pressure with an inline water Hester that you control for instant warmth water. The property is unique in that it has a full size 25m swimming pool with multiple lanes. Being a swimmer, this was a big factor in my stay. The location is a little remote and sits on top of mountain. There is supermarket less than 800m away, but may be a challenge for some walking up and down the mountain. Most of the restaurants and places you'll want to visit are a few km's away. Expect to use Uber regularly or rent a motorbike onsight from Jacky, which I did. Overall, I was pleased. The location fit my needs as I was visiting a friend who lived nearby. The location may or may not suit your needs. I found the value to be very good for the area. I would stay here again.

Fantastic stay at Talaramba Reef! We had a large family gathering for 3 nights (9 adults and 5 children) and booked both villas. The villas were beautiful, thoughtfully decorated, very comfortable, with lovely and immaculately kept grounds. The place was very spacious and it felt very relaxing, and the pools were very pleasant. Ranjith and his team were incredible. They were kind, friendly and went out of their way to make sure we had a memorable stay, including helping to organize a party and putting up a lovely banner. The food was also exceptional and great value for money. We cannot recommend this place enough!

The villa was beautiful! We booked it last minute on the same day of our stay and the host was very helpful and responsive. The house manager Harsha was the best! He was very nice and friendly, he cooked for us probably the best dinner we’ve had in Sri Lanka and in the morning he got fresh eggs and fruits and made us a great breakfast! Definitely recommend staying here!

Všetko bolo v poriadku, Chamila je priateľsky milý hostiteľ ochotný vždy pomôcť, pomohol nám zariadiť výlet na veľryby aj krokodíly :-) Staral sa o nas vždy keď sme niečo potrebovali. Malý bazen na dvore je super len malo slnka na dvore spôsobuje, že voda nieje vždy teplá. Ďakujeme za krásny pobyt na Srí Lanke 🙂

We had the most wonderful family Christmas at Villa Olu. The villa exceeded our expectations - the photos don’t do it justice! It was the most perfect setting for relaxing, having fun, playing games and not to mention the incredible family meals prepared and cooked by Kumara and Nadi!Experiencing the delicious traditional Sri Lankan cuisine was a huge highlight. Kumara could not do enough to help us - book tuk tuks, arrange massages at the villa and arrange transport. The villa is incredibly peaceful yet only ten minutes from Galle where we enjoyed visiting shops, sites and cafes. We would not hesitate to stay at Villa Olu again, what a super family holiday!

This place was incredible. We loved our stay! The property itself was gorgeous and we had the best time relaxing by the pool. Jagath and Upul made the stay by cooking us delicious food and helping us with anything we needed. We will be planning another stay in the future!!

Die Unterkunft liegt wunderschön im Grünen – ideal für alle, die Ruhe und Natur suchen. Jeden Morgen sahen wir Affen direkt an der Veranda, Vögel wie den sri-lankischen Specht, Kühe auf der Weide – traumhaft! Abends haben wir es geliebt, auf der Veranda zu sitzen und dem Zirpen zu lauschen. Der Pool war herrlich, die Aussicht einmalig. Dank der lieben Haushälterin Lila bekamen wir Kontakt zu einem zuverlässigen Tuk-Tuk-Fahrer, was super war – denn zu Fuß ist die Unterkunft schwer erreichbar. Einziger Kritikpunkt: Die Sauberkeit war aus europäischer Sicht etwas ausbaufähig, besonders beim Staub. Auch war die Küche nicht wirklich zum Kochen einladend. Täglich kamen Poolpflege und Haushaltshilfe – das war zwar hilfreich, aber nicht immer ideal für die Privatsphäre. Lässt sich aber alles gut absprechen. Insgesamt hat die Unterkunft unseren Erwartungen entsprochen. Wir haben uns sehr sicher und wohlgefühlt!
