We had a wonderful stay at Avila Nilaveli Beach. The rooms were incredibly comfortable, with excellent air conditioning that made the heat feel like a distant memory. The location is perfect—just a quick 5-minute walk to the beautiful Nilaveli Beach, which was so convenient for daily visits. What really stood out, though, was the flexibility of the staff. They went above and beyond to accommodate our schedule, adjusting breakfast times to fit with our activities. Their attention to detail and willingness to help made our stay even more enjoyable. Overall, a great spot for a relaxing and hassle-free getaway!

Nice and very modern rooms. Close to the beach and lots of restaurants. Don't let yourself be fooled by the picture of the garage door. It's not a garage at all but a proper hotel 😅

Diin and the rest of the staff are really friendly, funny and beautiful people. They gave us some good advices about the area and made our stay the best as possible every day. The rooms are pretty large, clean and cosy. The place is just 150mt far away from Nilaweli beach where you can find some nice restaurants and bars.

We stayed in several hotels on the island. And the best impression was left by this hotel. It is not big at all, but very cozy. There are good towels (it turns out that other hotels have problems with the quality of towels). There is hot water. And the rooms themselves are clean. Two hooligan cats live on the territory))))) As for the music, it is not loud and plays only until 10 p.m. The hotel also has a cafe with a chef who deserves a Michelin star 🫶. In the hotel and the cafe are done with style and very nice. Next time we will definitely come back here

Perfect location on the beach and the staff were incredibly helpful. Amazing evening meal on the beach and walking distance to the more lively beach bars. We had a room with AC overlooking the pool which was ideal and good value.

The location in Nilaveli is perfect. The beach is 5 minutes walking. It's a very quiet area, perfect to relax. The home stay has a good vibes atmosphere, with a garden with "hamacas", and full day open kitchen. The staff was nice and friendly. The room was very cheap and it has all the basic things you may need. I arrived very early and they stored my luggage, also in the departure day.
