Villa 45 - Balapitiya in Balapitiya has free bikes and a garden. Among the various facilities are a terrace and a shared lounge. The guest house features an outdoor swimming pool and a shared kitchen. Villa 45 - Balapitiya is 5 minutes away from the famous Madu River.

Everything was perfect. When my wife made the booking, I didn't expect many facilities. I only agreed to stay only one night at Villa 45 because our main day was planned for the next day. After staying at Villa 45 I was so happy since it was worth it in every aspect. The caretaker of the property Mr. Raj was really helpful, and also the owner Mr. Nipun took care of everything we need. When I ask him to book a river safari boat he quickly arranged it for an affordable price. I must mention the 'Maadu' river safari was amazing. My overall experience was really awesome and I highly recommend Villa 45.

Walauwa The Villa Ahungalla is located in the peaceful fishing village of Ahungalla on the southern coastline, providing safe and enjoyable accommodation in a tropical location. The villa is surrounded by lush greenery tropical gardens in a quiet environment. This is an ideal place for nature lovers and bird watchers. The Ahungalla Old Zoo is just 100 meters away, Sea Turtle Hatchery is a 5-minutes drive and the Ahungalla Beach is just 5-minutes walk from the villa.

The villa was in a quiet road. Ahungalla beach was 5 min. walk. I also really liked the little bay in front of Villa Thotupola which was just next to the long beach. It is a family run business and the owners are very nice, helpful. They also do airport transfers, trips. The breakfast was always very tasty. We had traditional bits and pieces as well. Always fresh fruit.The little kitchen had a kettle, a knife(is useful when you buy your own fruit), bottle opener.The room was very clean. The bed had a net. There is a sitting area in front of the room. It had a drying rack.It was nice to relax there. Fresh flowers on the table. I adored the beautiful garden they have. We also fed the monkeys! Spent a great time there and also the little village has an ayurvedic shop on the main road.The owner has it all!

    We visited at the end of our 2 week stay in Sri Lanka and it was easily the nicest hotel we've been to. The place felt like a little oasis with amazing views over the river, we spent a couple hours in the infinity pool watching eagles hunt there. Jeewana was a great host. He gave us a lot of tips of what to see in the area and even drove us to a sea turtle sanctuary. Fantastic stay, would definitely come back!
