Loved our stay in this beautiful house. TJ and his staff were fantastic and made stay here very comfortable. TJ was a mine of very interesting information on Colombo and the history of this house. We were fortunate enough to stay when the house was used for wedding photography which gave us an unique insight to Sri Lankan weddings. We were served Sri Lankan breakfasts by Dilshan who explained all the dishes to us and don’t forget to take a dip in the pool.

This bed and breakfast features free private parking, a 24-hour front desk and free WiFi. The accommodation provides airport transfers, while a car rental service is also available.

Beautifully decorated room with a lot of taste and attention to detail. The host was so welcoming and such an interesting lady who happened to be an architect and who designed the place herself. The breakfast was great and served in a such a serene courtyard. The family has a little cute dog and that made us miss our own doggy. All in all, the perfect place to escape the noise of the city and enjoy some relaxing moments in an incredibly affordable luxury.

    We had a one night stay and Satheesh was an incredible and an extremely helpful host. The whole ambience along with the antique style architecture added up to the experience! We booked a pool and garden view room and I must say the morning was absolutely beautiful despite the villa being located in the middle of the Colombo city. The villa has a homely vibe to it and lucky for us, my partner and I were the only guests! Will definitely come for another wonderful stay at this hidden gem.

    This place was built for honourable reasons, once intended to support the local community. It's well explained in a brochure in the villa. I think this is no more the case, maybe the villa was sold to other people?
