Sisikirana Villa (Luxury Villa in Galle)

The place is quiet and calm. The pool access is very good. Breakfast was nice, though it was served a bit late that day. The staff are friendly and helpful. Overall, a pleasant stay.

The host and the chief were nice. The villa and pool were good. The breakfast was good. Thanks to the owner for the gifts on the last day.

Honestly, the villa overrated. During the check-in i requested paying using Visa and the owner requested extra 3% as Credit card fee. I refused so i paid half cash and half with Credit Card without fee. We stayed for one week and the rooms never cleaned during our stay as well as the towels never changed. The towels require replacements as they are very dirty and looks aged and colors close to gray. The privacy is another concern were the chief stay with us in the villa and the owner show up almost everyday in side the villa. The location is not suitable for tourists where the villa located in local citizens neighborhood. Pests control required for ants inside the villa. The wifi was bad and most of the time we were using our phone tethering

Stunning property.. we were a group of 8 and the villa had enough space for all.. the staff at the villa was exceptional.. they went out of their way to make us feel welcomed and took care of everything so well.. On the day of checkout, the owner personally came to greet us as well.. such nice, small personal touches everywhere.. would recommend it 100% to all our friends and family..

Access road is pretty narrow.. though that also did add to the charm of the villa.. bumpy access road leading to a beautiful palatial villa..

The property is really beautiful and traditional/ homely! The best part of the stay was Aruna’s kind hospitality and incredible home cooking! He went the extra mile to decorate the house beautifully for a special occasion which we really appreciated! The completely private pool area is also really lovely

Our only comment would be to provide more mosquito repellant devices around the house, but this is a general problem in Sri Lanka and not property specific!

We loved the location and the incredible Chef Aruna. He made our stay truly special with his delicious cooking, generosity, kindness and care. He looked after us like family, went above and beyond with any request and was genuinely friendly and welcoming. His meals were some our the best we experienced on the trip. He cooked up a feast for my husband’s birthday dinner and even got his name put on a birthday cake. The owner of the Villa was so accommodating and kind he let us check out late as our family was visiting to celebrate with us. We also received a thoughtful gift from him. The pool was wonderful and the rooms were comfy.

The meals, the space and the proximity to Wijaya beach

1. Host was approachable, responsive and pleasant. 2. The caretaker was a pleasant gentlemen 3. Privacy and safety was good 4. Close to Galle fort and Unawatuna and Talpe beach 5. Easy access to southern highway toll route

1. Mosquitoes ruined our stay. Only the rooms had air-conditioning. The living ares, dining areas and outdoors were not pleasant to use because of mosquitoes. The caretaker provided mosquito repellent coils but weren't adequate and unpleasant to breathe. There's a drain with stagnant water about 20m from the block which is ideal breeding grounds for mosquitoes. The host and the neighborhood should complain to the public health safety authorities to get this resolved. 2. In the rooms window panes were made of wood, so was too dark inside even during daytime. Keeping windows open was not an option due to mosquitoes. 3. Very narrow roads with sharp bends. A car or a small SUV should be fine but access can be challenging for a larger vehicle or bus.

Excellent location within quiet neighbourhood but not far from the bustling town. Great place to stay if you want to go on excursions to national parks, whale watching or sightseeing and close to Jungle beach. Our hosts were excellent people and Arun was there always to assist in anyway- not to mention is amazing cooking skills.

Nothing

Sisikirana Villa is the best accommodation you can choose in Unawatuna! Beautiful villa with private pool, good location and a great team who helped us with everything. My and my friends spent there a wonderful time that we will definitely remember for a long time.
