Guest Reviews

• mabruchu (10/5): Un sitio increíblemente bonito - El sitio es espectacular, una casa de película, los muebles son una maravilla y el jardín increíble, repetiría sin duda. El manager fue increiblemente amable y servicial, hablamos un montón con el y era super atento. La habitación enorme. El desayuno nos dejamos aconsejar y pedimos el Srilanqués y fue una sorpresa, muy rico y diferente. Cerca hay una playa suuuper tranquila y preciosa de aguas cristalinas que parece que estés en maldivas. a 5-10 min más caminando hay una playa más famosa y concurrida. Todo fue genial
• Philip (10/5): Great accommodation, welcoming hosts and great value for money. - We had passed by the property on a previous stay and had resolved to stay there on our next visit because it looked so beautiful and tranquil. We were not disappointed. We enjoyed everything. Nothing distracted from our stay. In fact my wife had suffered an accident and injury earlier in the trip and the owners and staff went out of their way to help us deal with the situation.
• ESHAL PREM (7/5): - Its very peaceful and excellent location Pool as to be cleaned and maintained daily.
• Emir Ozan (10/5): -
• Catharina (10/5): Wonderful stay in this paradise Villa - Beautifully designed spacious villa in a very beautiful garden with lots of trees and flowers. Very friendly and helpful owners (couple) and very friendly staff. We liked the peaceful and quiet atmosphere at this place which felt very private. Great beach at walking distance and the best pasta/pizza nearby. Nothing.
• Tristan (8/5): Mooie villa voor een ontspannen verblijf aan de kust - Het is een prachtig gebouw, met mooie ruime kamers, euime badkamer en fijne douche. Zwembad is mooi met lekker warm water. De villa is gelegen in een rustig deel van Ahangama, op loopafstand van het strand en enkele restaurantjes. Genoeg tuktuks in de buurt voor de langere afstanden. Ontbijt begint pas vanaf 8:30 (het is wel mogelijk eerder iets te krijgen). De luiken in de kamer laten veel licht van lampen door, waardoor het niet goed donker wordt 's nachts. Tijdens ons verblijf had de manager ontslag genomen, en veel gemaakte afspraken waren niet overgedragen. De service daarna was een stuk slechter, omdat je een vast aanspreekpunt mist. Ik hoop dat deze positie snel weer wordt ingevuld.
• Sourabh Santosh (10/5): - Amazing property and staff who catered to our every needs The property is a bit far from the main road and the roads connecting to the property are very narrow.
• Barend (10/5): - Friendly staff, amazing details and a relaxed vibe Shower area stayed really wet
• Jan (10/5): Amazing stay in a good location. - Good location walking distance from Kabalana beach but away from the busy main road. Nice quiet garden area. The house is really nice with amazing staff and clean rooms. Breakfast is provided on request. We stayed with a small child and the staff was really helpful and provided a baby cot. Would definitely come back here. Nothing the owner can do about but because the villa is located in a lush jungle area, there were quite a few mosquitoes and insects around, which is to be expected in such a tropical environment. Just be prepared.
• D (10/5): - Very lovely place! We spent great time there More breakfast options
• Laura (10/5): -
• Carolyn (10/5): - A beautiful home from home elegant villa with stylish interiors. Spacious comfortable rooms & delicious food . Beautiful garden & pool. The home visiting Massage was a delight. Highly recommended.
• Cravassac (9/5): 🥰🥰 - Réellement encore mieux en vrai que sur les photos 🙂 Un petit bout de paradis au calme et au milieu de la nature et en meme temps a deux pas de la plage et des spots de surf Personnel très gentil et chambre vraiment mignonne et confortable La piscine est vraiment très agréable comme tous les extérieurs de manière générale Le massage était également incroyable 😻 Néanmoins le petit déjeuner pourrait être améliorer et plus copieux par rapport a ce qui est proposer a ce prix la ailleurs Très bon séjour dans l’ensemble 🙂😍
• Jeepalyam (10/5): -
• Barbara (10/5): Amara Villa is a true gem and our stay was perfect from start to finish. Thoroughly recommend it! - The villa is set in beautifully manicured gardens with a lovely pool - a peaceful oasis that made the start of our trip in Sri Lanka very relaxing. We had a very spacious and comfortable room with a terrace overlooking the garden. The hosts Sam and Anna went out of their way to ensure we had an enjoyable stay and all the staff were very attentive. Breakfast was a plethora of tropical fruits, hoppers and pancakes and they also had their excellent chef prepare us delicious dinners of fish served with fresh vegetables, rice and noodles. Anna also makes very good buffalo curd cheesecake and banana cake! Nothing at all!
• Oscar (10/5): A relaxing oasis, beautiful and well located. -
• Anton (1/5): - За пять дней проживания ни разу не убрали номер , при заезде попросили доплатить какие то сборы 60 баксов , мы отказались так как на букинг все налоги были учтены ! В бассейне очень острая плитка порезали ноги ! На букинг выезд в 12 , нам сказали в день выезда что нужно выехать в 11 ! Плохая шумоизоляция слышно все голоса во дворе ! Нам достался один единственный номер без выхода на террасу на фото все номера с дополнительными дверями поэтому нужно уточнять при бронировании уточняйте !
• Daniel (10/5): - This is a charming place with great hosts, who made us feel at home. The villa is beautiful and cozy, the rooms very spacious. The location was perfect for us as it is far enough from the busy local road and yet close enough to the beautiful and safe beach and restaurants. It is placed at tranquil little road that leads further to the rice fields and tea plantation. I would recommend it to everyone. Everything was great
• KSENIIA (8/5): -
• Karin (10/5): Uneingeschränkt weiter zu empfehlen, auch wir würden jederzeit wiederkommen - Sehr geschmackvoll bis ins letzte Detail, freundliche Eigentümer, die uns herzlich empfangen haben. Ruhig gelegen, dennoch fussläufig zum Strand. Sehr leckeres typisch singhalesisches Essen. Nichts
• Sarat (10/5): - The amazing eye to detail by the owners. The property is extremely well Maintained and very close to the beach. Nothing at all !!
• Kurach (10/5): Это самый лучший мой отдых - Нам очень понравилось с женой это место , очень и ещё раз очень красиво все.А хозяева это очень положительные люди Сэм и Анна все что надо все помогут.Обезательно ещё к ним приедим .Кто собирается к ним не сомневайтесь это очень хорошее место Таких моментов просто нет
• Aditya (9/5): -
• Katarzyna (10/5): - Przepiękny budynek, niesamowity ogród, duży basen oraz bardzo czyste i przestronne pokoje. Obsługa 10/10. Bardzo polecam to miejsce
• Katrine (10/5): -
• Charlotte (10/5): Impressive specious villa - The villa is spacious and gives a luxurious impression, furniture is all in wood and the area is super relaxing. The garden is wonderful and upstairs is a place to do yoga. Worth every penny and more.
• Razim (10/5): - The staff were really nice and welcoming, the rooms were top notch too. We enjoyed the stay here very much!
• Kate (10/5): Out best stay in Sri Lanka! - A beautiful property, we were made so welcome by Anna and Sam and looked after so well by the staff. Spotlessly clean. Tranquil spot only a short walk to a great beach Nothing!
• Boas (10/5): Fantastische accommodatie met goede faciliteiten in een oase van rust - Fantastische accommodatie! Host en personeel zijn ontzettend vriendelijk, zeer behulpzaam en staan altijd voor je klaar. De communicatie verliep soepel en we hebben ons meer dan welkom gevoeld. De kamers zijn ruim en mooi ingericht. Zelfde geldt voor de badkamer (beste regendouche ooit!!) De ligging van de villa is ook heel fijn. Weg van de drukte en op 5 min loopafstand van het strand. En dan de tuin nog.. ruim en tropisch met heerlijk zwembad en apen op het dak die je yoga/workout sessie aanschouwen. Scooter is wel aan te raden. Dat kan je via de manager regelen :)
• Barbara (10/5): - Beautiful house and garden near to restaurants-walking distance Very friendly staff and the owner couple is lovely
• 24 (10/5): -
• Mattia (8/5): Pleasant stay - Pretty property and very peaceful The bathroom was a bit dated so it felt a little unclean, even if it was clean
• Stacy (10/5): Super séjour ! - Un super séjour dans cet établissement très charmant ! Un coin reposant et calme avec un personnel toujours prêt à nous servir !
• Tye (10/5): Amazing family stay with great location! - Absolute 5-star experience at Amara Villas! Manager Duminda is a standout host - so welcoming and took care of everything we needed with a smile. The whole staff was fantastic, always going the extra mile to make our stay special. The food was incredible - we ended up eating at the hotel more than we planned because everything was so delicious! Our kids practically lived in the pool, and the beach is just a quick walk away. Such a perfect spot for families. Spacious, clean rooms and the most helpful team you could ask for. Big thanks to Duminda and crew for making our stay unforgettable!
• Katarzyna (10/5): Exceptional - What should I start with. When we entered the villa we were so amazed at the quality of the place. Every little detail is thought of, the room was big and the cleanest we saw on the island. We truly felt we can relax our bodies and minds (highly recommend booking a massage in the garden, truly a zen experience). The owners really care for the villa and the garden, making sure everything works like a charm. I can’t not mention hotel manager Duminda’s professionalism. He took care of every little ask we had. He even helped organise our airport transfer after our check out date. The rest of the staff was also amazing at their jobs. Hoping to come back!
• Rhea (9/5): Great stay. Hope to visit again soon. - The staff and food were exceptional. The entire visit they ensured I was well taken care of. A lot of mosquitoes in the evenings made it a little difficult to sit outside and enjoy the beautiful view.
• Nancy (9/5): A quiet village retreat - This is a beautiful property- so many flowers and well cared for plants in the lovely peaceful garden. The house is well appointed with spacious rooms. A quiet retreat in a small village away from tourists and crowds. Duminda and his team made us so comfortable and happy. Delicious Sri Lankan breakfast as well! A short walk from a small beach, and plenty of nice restaurants within walking/tuktuk distance. It’s a bit of a distance from Galle so ideal if you had a car or you can easily take the local bus. So many mosquitoes- clouds of them in the evening and morning. Lots of standing water around with numerous mosquito larva, this could be monitored. Perhaps the veranda or the rooms could have screens.
• Sonja (10/5): Exceptional - This place is a true gem. We can not recommend it highly enough. We can honestly say that we had the best time staying at Amara Villa. From the communication with staff before we arrived, to the whole experience of being in this stunning place, we genuinely have nothing negative to say. We were so well looked after. Nothing was too much trouble. Whilst we were there, we were fortunate enough to meet the owners of the property, and it made our holiday even more wonderful. They are a gorgeous couple, who made us feel so relaxed and cared for. We will absolutely go back... The room was spotless and decorated to a very high standard. The villa was of a fantastic design and we couldn't quite believe the standard of craftsmanship. The bed was super comfy, and the water was always warm. This is a place to relax, unwind, enjoy the coast, explore...please visit, but treat it well...gems like this are rare. There was nothing we didn't like. It way exceeded our expectations.
• Amita (1/5): NASTY EXPERIENCE ! - The Amara villa is located in the middle of a poor Sri Lankan village, you could go for a stroll with some stray dogs, there are wild monkeys on trees. There are some beaches in walking distance. I was travelling with my adult son, we booked the property after seeing amazing photos online, however we never got to stay at Amara villa. We were put into a small property called Amara house which was situated outside the main premises. Amara villa has a high brick wall all around it and huge wooden gates which are locked. Within the house, the manager asked us to choose 1 bedroom and promptly locked the other one. It didn't make sense, as we had booked a property with 2 large double bedrooms. The next morning, there was no WI FI connection, no TV or radio, not even basic tea/ coffee powder. After a stroll in the village I went to see the manager at Amara villa as I was confused by the set up and what we were paying 4 times the amount we paid at other properties for. He was not helpful. On a second occasion, an hour later, I met the owner Sam and told him how unhappy I was. They offered me breakfast and told me that I should pay Rs 44,055 Sri Lankan rupees and leave the premises or else they would call the police !! I had booked stay for 2 days and didn't have any other bookings. Within 10 minutes, the manager turned up with three police men at my front door. The police officer understood when I showed him my booking at Amara villa as opposed to where I was staying. I agreed to pay half the amount and leave. Sam the owner, his wife the manager warned me not to write a bad review since they had reduced the price ( it was still double what I paid elsewhere). I was happy to get out of this place, took the first taxi to leave. Sam, if you treat your guests like this, they will stop coming. I suggest you take some tips on hospitality from your own countrymen as they welcomed us with open arms wherever we went. I think the world deserves to know how you twist peoples arms and intimidate them if you don't get what you want.
• Bryony (10/5): Exceptional - Beautiful villa in a peaceful setting surrounded by nature, a good base to explore the region.
• Nick (10/5): Exceptional - Excellent breakfast. Delightful staff. Nothing.
• Chaitali (10/5): Wonderful stay at Amaara. - The staff. Duminda is a gem. The stay, the pool, the breakfast. Loved it all. It’s old school and not automated. So enjoy that Charm. Also it’s in the middle of nature, a little cut out, but it’s beautiful.
• Jennifer (10/5): Heaven! Home away from home. - A stunning villa with stunning gardens and only a 5 minute drive from the centre of Ahangama and all the restaurants there. The bedrooms are beautifully furnished and the staff are wonderfully discreet and yet available when needed. Duminda in particular is very professional and experienced in how to give good customer service. Amara villa is like a home away from home and we will be back again many times in the future I hope. Not really a major problem but bath towels are a little small!
• Robin (10/5): Exceptional - They received me really well and I had great food
• Daniel (9/5): Superb -
• Emily (10/5): Highly recommend - Great rooms, European standard bathrooms Nice garden and lovely area nothing
• Serge (9/5): Superb - Great staff and nice rooms We could hear our neighbours
• Rebeca (4/5): Disappointing - Room was big There were a lot of noises, couldn't rest well
• Baid (9/5): Superb -
• Vanessa (7/5): Good - Lovely homely place just minutes from the beach. Really helpful and friendly staff!
• Lindsay (6/5): Mixed bag. - The property never got our reservation, so showed up and no one was there. This, however, didn't appear to be Amara's fault. Ana was very apologetic and tried to make the most of it. Property is nice though, but it's more suited for a full rent out than just a couple looking for a get away.
• James (9/5): Superb -
• Priit (10/5): Hope to visit some day again. Just excellent, excellent, excellent! - My family really liked and loved everything. The manager and the staff was just so warm and always helpful and availiable. The food was sublime. The hotel was very very nice with nice nature. We just enjoyed really everything. That we had to leave :)
• Verified traveler (10/5): - We had a calm and pleasant stay at Amara Villa. The rooms and the whole Villa are very clean and good furnitured. Also the stuff is very friendly and they a happy to help you with any questions. Beach is only five minutes walking distance away. You can also easily take the bus from the main street e.g.to Galle.
