Loved most
Beautiful, spacious villa and garden
Very friendly and helpful owners/staff
Peaceful location within walking distance to great beaches
Good value for money
Thoughtful details and helpful extras (e.g., baby cot)
Worth knowing — Pool requires more frequent cleaning/maintenance · Shower/wet areas can stay damp · Access via narrow roads and slightly far from main road · Limited breakfast options and breakfast often by request only · Occasional service dip when manager/staff turnover occurs · Insects/mosquitoes due to lush tropical setting
How guests scored the stay
Service9.4
Multiple reports praise very friendly, helpful owners and staff who went out of their way (including after an injury); one report noted service dipped when the manager left, but overall service is a standout.
Value for Money9.4
Multiple guests explicitly mention great value for money and would repeat their stay; overall perceived as excellent value.
Location9.3
Excellent, peaceful location within walking distance of quiet, beautiful beaches; noted as away from busy roads though access involves narrow roads and a bit of distance from the main road.
Room Quality9.2
Rooms described as spacious, beautifully designed with large bathrooms and good showers; some comments about shutters letting light through and wet shower areas are minor detractors.
Food and Beverage9.0
Breakfast and a recommended Sri Lankan breakfast were highlighted as tasty and different; options are limited and breakfast is served on request, so generally positive with room to expand choices.
Amenities8.9
Nice garden, warm pool and helpful extras (baby cot on request); however pool maintenance and limited breakfast options lower this slightly.
Overall Experience8.9
Overall stays described as wonderful, peaceful and highly enjoyable with many repeat intentions; a few practical negatives (access roads, insects, occasional service lapse) temper a perfect score.
Cleanliness8.7
Generally clean rooms reported, but some mentions of pool needing daily cleaning and a persistently wet shower area indicate minor cleanliness/maintenance issues.

“El sitio es espectacular, una casa de película, los muebles son una maravilla y el jardín increíble, repetiría sin duda. El manager fue increiblemente amable y servicial, hablamos un montón con el y era super atento. La habitación enorme. El desayuno nos dejamos aconsejar y pedimos el Srilanqués y fue una sorpresa, muy rico y diferente. Cerca hay una playa suuuper tranquila y preciosa de aguas cristalinas que parece que estés en maldivas. a 5-10 min más caminando hay una playa más famosa y concurrida.”
Great accommodation, welcoming hosts and great value for money.

“Beautifully designed spacious villa in a very beautiful garden with lots of trees and flowers. Very friendly and helpful owners (couple) and very friendly staff. We liked the peaceful and quiet atmosphere at this place which felt very private. Great beach at walking distance and the best pasta/pizza nearby.”
Mooie villa voor een ontspannen verblijf aan de kust

“Het is een prachtig gebouw, met mooie ruime kamers, euime badkamer en fijne douche. Zwembad is mooi met lekker warm water. De villa is gelegen in een rustig deel van Ahangama, op loopafstand van het strand en enkele restaurantjes. Genoeg tuktuks in de buurt voor de langere afstanden.”

“Réellement encore mieux en vrai que sur les photos 🙂
Un petit bout de paradis au calme et au milieu de la nature et en meme temps a deux pas de la plage et des spots de surf
Personnel très gentil et chambre vraiment mignonne et confortable
La piscine est vraiment très agréable comme tous les extérieurs de manière générale
Le massage était également incroyable 😻
Néanmoins le petit déjeuner pourrait être améliorer et plus copieux par rapport a ce qui est proposer a ce prix la ailleurs
Très bon séjour dans l’ensemble 🙂😍”
Amara Villa is a true gem and our stay was perfect from start to finish. Thoroughly recommend it!

“The villa is set in beautifully manicured gardens with a lovely pool - a peaceful oasis that made the start of our trip in Sri Lanka very relaxing. We had a very spacious and comfortable room with a terrace overlooking the garden. The hosts Sam and Anna went out of their way to ensure we had an enjoyable stay and all the staff were very attentive. Breakfast was a plethora of tropical fruits, hoppers and pancakes and they also had their excellent chef prepare us delicious dinners of fish served with fresh vegetables, rice and noodles. Anna also makes very good buffalo curd cheesecake and banana cake!”
A relaxing oasis, beautiful and well located.

“This is a charming place with great hosts, who made us feel at home. The villa is beautiful and cozy, the rooms very spacious. The location was perfect for us as it is far enough from the busy local road and yet close enough to the beautiful and safe beach and restaurants. It is placed at tranquil little road that leads further to the rice fields and tea plantation. I would recommend it to everyone.”
