We enjoyed our stay at Kingfish villa in the month of March 2025. It was a very pleasant time. An optimal location to relax and experience the beautiful beach of Ranna at a distance of ca. 300 m. The owner Raveen is also an amazing person. He is very helpful and knows around Ranna, southern locations of SL and even other locations at wish. Also, there is the possibility to have him as a tour guide. He owns a restaurant as well where the food is exquisite. One can choose a variety of local foods and drinks too. Overall, remarkably good experience.

Our three days at fishermen’s lodge were super special, we felt so welcome and included in their family. The food in the restaurant was really amazing, the host is a great cook, we loved especially her rice and curry and the grilled fish. The traditional breakfast was also really good! The room was really simple, but still very clean and the host was always ready to help us in any way. You just walk a few steps to the beautiful beach which is nearly empty! In the morning the host took us fishing one time, which was the most special and fun experience! Overall we really recommend coming here for an authentic and local experience with extraordinary people! Thank you for everything! We might come back one time :)

Suggest a good Coffee Machine to the premises would be a real asset. Few extra lights in the garden during the night would make it great

We had beautiful stay at this amazing place. Personal was always here and helpful, arranged for us tuktuk and bird watching tour. The room was amazing, clean, spacious, comfortable, we were upgraded for free. Ever day nice breakfast- different options available. Long Beach with palms and minimum people. If you get behind the waves, you can swim there. But best for long walks. Few beach restaurants nearby with fresh fish. Calm and peaceful, ideal if you want to get away from the crowds and just spend time with the sea and yourself.

🌴 A Truly Unforgettable Stay! 🌅 I stayed at this beautiful villa with my family, and it was simply amazing from the moment we arrived! The villa itself was so peaceful and spacious,The atmosphere was calm, private, and perfect for a family getaway. The owner was incredibly friendly and made us feel right at home — always ready to help with a warm smile. The location was also perfect — just 5 minutes away from the beach! Every evening, we walked there to watch the stunning sunset and even saw sea turtles, which was such a magical experience for all of us. 🌅🐢 The whole stay felt like a dream — full of relaxation, happiness, and unforgettable memories with my loved ones. I would highly recommend this villa to anyone looking for a peaceful, family-friendly escape with a true tropical vibe. We will definitely come back again! ❤️🌺
