D'Villa Guest House

Located outside of Jaffna town, off the main road, easily accessable by bus. Owner Dilan is very helpful, arranges Jaffna islands and Point Pedro round trips with tuktuk. Also could use a bicycle for extended excursions. The train line behind the house was not disturbing as trains do not operate during night. Breakfast is delicious and plentiful. Dilan is also owner of D'Villa Garden House. I recommend staying here.

The floor could be cleaned more often.

Very supportive staff. Jaffna was extremely hot so accommodation was welcoming at the end of the day. We had air conditioning and you need this in Jaffna. There are fans in shared areas and one on covered balcony was excellent in the evening so do find the switch if sitting there in the evening. The breakfast was excellent and house keeper cheerful and excellent customer care, special homemade sunday treat.. We stayed 5 days while exploring Jaffna. Showers brilliant you don't need to use the heated ones as the water comes out of the mains one nicely warm and powerful.not like uk.. Dried our clothes over day in the bathroom. Family very welcoming, gave advice and on hand when needed. Home is in a residential area just off the main Hospital road leading to Jaffna city centre with buses and tuk tuks available e.g. 300 lkr tuk tuk to centre. You could walk but bit hot. Would not have liked to stay in central Jaffna, dusty and noisy. We had a car but supplemented with tuk tuk. Jaffna is so hot but we found some Oasis delights- Springs and Temple near Pedro point just like old sea filled baths in Cornwall ..womens enclosed with showers, just wear long dress or light pants and top. Jetwing Jaffna roof bar great views and cool breeze, omelette and drinks not expensive. Lavins oposite Nullar Kovil temple, jucies, deserts and meals just that bit different from lunch time local eateries went 5 times once we found it. Island hopping via car. You could probably hire a tuk tuk to island hop. Beautiful and just attached by causeway near the Fort. People very friendly and hard working. Sunsets brilliant by Fort and park in the evenings. Library a good place to shade.

Need to chill to the bakers van and dogs serenading quieter than the Baker 😆 in the early morning

Nice rooms, and lobby decent location, water and tea for free, bicyles available, very friendly owner. I wanted to stay for 3 nights and ended up staying 6, as I could not find a better place in the area. Jaffna town has a pleasant liveliness and a few highlights, like the Dutch Fort, the fishing port, the market, some temples, the Malaysian Cafe, but the magic only starts if you rent a scooter and explore the shores and beaches around. Go to Point San Pedro, Msmatkedu beach, Keerimalai temple and pool, Delft or better Nainativu island, Kovalam lighthouse etc. It is a beautiful part of this beautiful country.

Some moskitos and other insects. Room Nr.2 gets noise from the AC machines so avoid it unless you use AC yourself.

Dillon is a lovely man, a caring and very considerate host. In the evenings he sometimrs came and chatted with the guests on a common sitting area/balconey decorated with plants and some unique objects.There were also very interesting and cheerrfull guests staying there. I greatly enjoyed my breakfasts comprizing various Sri Lankan treats. The property is situated on a quiet residential street but only a 10 minute walk to a main street with supermarket and places to buy ready food. In my opinion, everything was perfect. When I return to Jaffna I will definitely stay here. Very highly recommended! Thank you Dillon.

The host Dilan is a very helpfull and nice person. He will help you in any mater.
