Astig Villa - Negombo

A short drive from the airport in a very quiet location in Negombo. We were the only guests staying for 4 nights and the 2 members of staff looked after us very well. They cooked breakfast (there is a real mix of Sri Lanka curry, not for us really for breakfast, but plenty fruit and eggs.) They will prepare lunch and evening meals for a small cost too but if u want more choice you will need to hire a tuk tuk to take you 20mins to the town. We did eat at a locals house called Crab Cove and they made us delicious chicken curry fried prawns for £10. If it’s a quiet get away from it all this is the place. If u want a wide choice Central Negombo is for you.

I arrived at Astig Villa after what turned into a long journey from Arugam Bay – a ride that should have taken 4.5 hours stretched to 9.5, and by the time I arrived it was already night. The staff welcomed me so warmly and even prepared dinner for me, which was such a relief after a difficult day of travel. I had been travelling around Sri Lanka for two weeks, and staying here was exactly what I needed – a chance to relax by the beautiful pool and enjoy the peaceful surroundings. The staff looked after me so well, cooking breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and the owner was always available if I needed anything. He even organised a tuk tuk to take me into town, which was especially helpful in an area I wasn’t yet familiar with. What makes Astig Villa so special is the personal touch – it feels more like staying with friends than at a hotel. I’d especially recommend it to anyone flying into Sri Lanka late at night, as it’s very close to the airport, and the nearby lagoon is a beautiful spot to watch the fishermen go by. Whether you’re starting or ending your Sri Lankan journey, this is the perfect place to stay.

Pulizia e gentilezza del personale. La colazione è stata una bellissima sorpresa, tra le migliori di tutta la vacanza.

La posizione è un po’ isolata rispetto al centro di Negombo, sceglietela se preferite la tranquillità. Non aver potuto pagare con la carta.

A good startingpoint of a trip through Sri Lanka. Nice pool, clean rooms, very friendly and helpful staff, and good service . Deliciously, fresh pepared food. The men are great cooks!
