Villa Kaya

This hotel is superb and exceptional value for money. We stayed in six hotels on our recent trip to Sri Lanka and this was our favourite. Great location, five minutes walk to the beach and many local restaurants and shops but set back a little from the busy main street that runs through Hikkaduwa. There's a large supermarket just down the road with a wine/beer shop and several ATMs. All the staff are friendly and welcoming. A great breakfast and set in lovely gardens which are really well maintained. The pool is very clean and the sunbeds are comfortable. The rooms are spacious and spotlessly clean with a great bathroom, a comfortable bed and both air-con and ceiling fan. We stayed in Room 1 on the ground floor having terraces front and back. From the back you can watch a troop of friendly monkeys in the trees which come down at breakfast time to be hand fed the leftovers! There are also large monitor lizards which make regular appearances. We would happily stay here again.

Couldn't fault it.

Great location in the centre of town. minutes from the bars, restaurants and beach. First class breakfast with lots of fruit, yoghurts and eggs. Friendly staff and a large air conditioned nice clean room, with a great pool and lovely gardens. The monkeys were a bonus!

The towels could have been changed part way through the week and a bed sized top sheet on the bed would have been nice.

Everything! Room, location, amazing breakfast- best we've had. Monkey's visiting for braking. Beautiful pool area and lovely staff

Nothing. A tiny bonus would be to have net curtains on the lower ground floor rooms but I'm being picky. It was one of our favourite hotels.

A little repet

Lovely but repetative

Everything, great facilities, large comfortable room and bed, Aircon fan and spotless. Fantastic breakfast, and staff were really welcoming helpful and friendly. Large immaculately kept grounds and a perfect pool area for children and adults alike. Only 5 minutes walk to the main street with cafes shops and bars and 10 minutes to the nearest beach. The best we've stayed in in Sri Lanka. I would recommend this to anyone.

Beautiful location away from the main street just over the railway line. Lovely garden that was always well tended. Allowed my wife and I to check in very early, 05.30 am after two flights from the UK. The Villa arranged our airport pick up so it was a breeze to get to. Two hours from Columbo. Very good sized room with all amenities, Pool nice and refreshing after a day out. We would have stayed longer however we only booked three nights to see if we liked Hikaduwa.

Not a great deal to complain about really. No hot water for the shower but as it was so warm during the day it was quite a relief to have a cool shower. People have commented on the train noise but we never noticed it.

Nice pool, very good location, tasty breakfast and super friendly staff.

Pretty close to the train railway, but after a few nights you get used to it.

We had a wonderful stay at Villa Kaya Guest House. The owner was incredibly helpful and welcoming, making us feel right at home. Our room was clean, comfortable, and well-maintained. The location is fantastic, just a short walk to the beach and lovely restaurants. The local Turtle Beach is a must-visit, where you can see large wild turtles in their natural habitat—a truly magical experience. The charming surroundings, including its proximity to the train line, added an authentic touch to our stay. The amazing breakfast each morning was amazing! It was a perfect base for our trip, and we’d happily stay here again. Highly recommended!

No, it was all good!
