Summary Our stay at Happy Man Village was a perfect blend of relaxation, adventure, and heartwarming hospitality. The attentive staff and beautiful surroundings made this an unforgettable experience. We can’t wait to return to this hidden gem! Our recent stay at Happy Man Village was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment we arrived, the staff provided hospitality from the heart—always smiling, receptive, and genuinely anticipative of our needs. Their warmth made us feel welcomed and comfortable throughout our entire stay. Room: The spacious and clean room featured a modern outdoor bathroom that added to the charm. Being secluded, with a good distance from the next cabana, we enjoyed the serenity and had the pleasure of observing the local wildlife in nature. Outdoors: This property truly allows you to disconnect. It is peaceful, with a beautiful garden and pool, and is situated far enough from the main street that we couldn’t hear any noise. Yet, we were close enough to the beach to enjoy the soothing sounds of the waves, which were just a ten-minute walk away. Services: Happy Man Village offers a complimentary drop-off and pick-up service to beaches and restaurants via tuk-tuk. We were fortunate to be escorted to a temple where a monk provided thoughtful explanations about the local culture. Additionally, they offer laundry services (for a fee) and kindly arranged a massage for us on the property (also for a fee). We highly recommend the boat tour along the river or lake, where you can immerse yourself in the local jungle and see the train tracks washed away by the 2004 tsunami. Our suggestion is to do it at sunset, so you can see the birds returning home to roost. Food: Before our last night, we took a cooking class with the chef in the kitchen, which was a delightful and fun experience. We had a great exchange while learning the secrets of Sri Lankan curry. The dinner at the restaurant on the second evening was equally delicious!

Bakers cottage was a stop for us as we were making our way back to Colombo. Accommodation was very comfortable and beautifully decorated. Family were friendly and welcoming. Breakfast was good with fruits from the garden and some local Sri Lankan dishes. The mattress was a little bit hard for us, but this is likely to be replaced as the family noted this. Location on Kosgoda beach meant a lovely sunset. Swimming options further up the beach or a short tuk tuk drive away. A few restaurants nearby, local and tourist and more options not to far away by tuk tuk

I had an amazing experience staying at here. The location is absolutely perfect, with a beautiful beach. The sea view is breathtaking and truly adds to the overall experience. The villa itself is spotless and very well-maintained, creating a calm and offering a comfortable environment to relax. It’s clear that a lot of care goes into maintaining the place. The staff were also very helpful and always ready to assist with anything we needed. Choosing to stay here was definitely a pleasure.

La Kurumba Oceanfront Villa is one of my favourite places in Sri Lanka, home like. I arrived in the late evening around 23:00. Host Thilaka, a very beautiful woman and Sampath welcomed me with big smiles. Sampath opened all the lights in the beach area and at this late hour he offered to make me a fresh meal in his bar which is right on the beach, so he did. He is a great chef and always makes delicious meals. I was very lucky straight after my arrival to see a turtle which came to lay eggs while I was having my meal. Next mornings Sampath brought me murunga and other special local green leaves, I was having green herbal juice every morning. Everyone was very helpful here. Manager Shiwantha helped me with other things I needed in town and around, he explained how locals live. I was so happy to experience local life. The local people in Ambalangoda town very friendly. The other person from La Kurumba organised me a massage and aloe vera drink. And Thilaka was very helpful as well. The vibe here in villa La Kurumba is amazing: palm trees, ocean, beautiful sea side, amazing and very comfortable room with big, wall windows and sea view, few steps from room to the sea, garden with lots of comfortable spots to relax or work on a laptop..., food is amazing, everyday fresh seafood and other things, coconut water, tuk tuk, scooter taxi's drop off to the center of town if needed. This villa is great for small group of people or family. To hear the ocean sound while sleeping and waking up with it was my favorite part. I didn't want to leave. I felt at home. Very grateful.

How can I even start… all the members of this family are literal angels. They’ll take care of you, show you around, make sure you’re never hungry, and give you the best possible experience. I was so lucky to meet them at the beginning of my trip; I ended up staying way longer than planned and even spent my birthday with them and we organised a trip together some time later. At this point, they’ve become family to me. Their property is located in a beautiful and tranquil area; if you like being close to nature and want an authentic Sri Lankan experience, this is the place. The rooms are well-kept and tidy, spacious, and cosy. There’s an adorable dog and lots of visiting animals, even parrots, who feed near the property’s gate every morning. Shamaylie, with the help of her daughters, cooks home made, healthy and very tasty meals, made from the local ingredients. The family will make sure that they offer you the food you like. I recommend to visit the Guesthouse regardless if you’re travelling solo or in a couple. You will always be treated with love, warmth, and generosity. Wik xx

Beautiful property right by the beach. Mendis and Jayantha (sorry if I got the spelling wrong), were very hospitable and we hung out and watched some sports together in the evening. The food was excellent, it was really peaceful and a nice place to end my Sri Lanka travels.
