Traumhaft schönes Haus, wunderbares Essen

9.0

Villa Amma Erna ist wunderschön! Das Open House Konzept fühlt sich ein bisschen wie ein Zuhause an. Die Zimmer sind toll eingerichtet, sehr sauber und das Essen ist unbeschreiblich gut und einfach mal etwas anderes. In der Umgebung gibt es nicht viel, aber mit dem Tuk Tuk ist man innerhalb von 10-15 min (und für 2-3€) in Galle oder in Unawatuna am Strand. Anitha, die gemeinsam mit dem Team für die Gäste da ist, ist die Beste! Sie hat unseren Aufenthalt noch besser gemacht!

Eigentlich nichts. Gleichzeitige gab es den ein oder anderen Moment an dem wir uns richtige Fenster in eine AC gewünscht hätten.

Beautiful villa in the middle of the nature

9.0

We loved the villa on a little hill with a beautiful view. Amazing accommodation with lovely, sweet staff. They make the breakfast, it was amazing. The whole constructie of the villa was all beautiful to see.

Was a little bit too much animal sounds during the night for us. It’s amazing but a little bit too noisy.

The most magical stay.

10.0

This was the most amazing experience. The staff were incredible and the food was some of the best we had in Sri Lanka. We received a really warm welcome and an espresso on arrival. The villa is in the most perfect hillside spot and we watched monkeys in the trees before brunch. The breakfast is incredible- really imaginative half Sri lankan half western dishes with so much fresh food and flavour. The chef is incredible so we did a cookery class with her which was amazing. The spa treatments were unreal. I had the best massage I've ever had. The manager was so friendly and kind and just really wanted to help us enjoy our stay. There's no Aircon but the room is so cool because of the fans and the outside breeze that it really did not matter. There's also no alcohol but the staff helped us get a tuktuk for very little money to a liquor store for wine. We really felt so at home there. It's a very 'help yourself/make yourself at home' vibe that you feel from the moment you enter the property.

Nothing. Everything was absolutely incredible.
