Villa Ambiance was a lovely place to stay! I enjoyed a large room with a full private bathroom. The room was cooled by an airconditioner that I could control. There were two hosts who made me feel welcome and comfortable and I was free to come and go at any time. The house was clean and very secure and located abt 15-20 min from Colombo close to the freeway. Each morning I was served a nice homemade breakfast and there was a machine to wash clothes. I would highly recommend Villa Ambiance if u want a warm Sri Lankan experience in a nice secure home. I would definitely stay there again.

Channa's place is a nice hide-away from the busy road of Colombo. He knows what guests need and provides everything from a good lokal breakfast to some free snacks. In the fully equiped kitchen you could even cook your owne meals. The clean rooms invited us to stay longer and we felt very comfortable. Channa and his family were very nice and helpfull. The bus stand is just some minutes away and Diyatha Uyana recreation area almost round the corner. Book it!

Channa, was an exceptional host for my first night in Sri Lanka, I wish I stayed longer. The atmosphere of his home was heavenly, quiet secluded and beautiful. It was the perfect atmosphere after a long flight. Channa offered knowledge of the area and was very thoughtful. His wife's breakfast was simple and deliscious. I left feeling so welcome and so happy! Thank you for a lovely stay

Channa and his wife were graceful hosts and we really enjoyed our stay at their lovely apartment. The place is located conveniently closer to central Colombo, but hidden away in a serene setting. There are number of restaurants/ coffee shops/ supermarkets and local attractions in the surrounding area and Channa gave us useful tips to navigate the city. The apartment looked even better than the pictures and the aesthetically pleasing interior decor definitely reflected Channa's creativity as an artist. The description in the listing appears accurate and all the basic amenities were available for our use. Channa and his wife prepared the most delicious local breakfast meals, which exceeded our expectations even as two Sri Lankan travelers. We checked out quite early and they were kind enough to prepare our breakfast by 6.45 am. We would not hesitate to recommend Channa's cozy hideout to any couple/ individual exploring Colombo. The apartment is surrounded by vegetation which adds a lovely ambiance. However, it would be wise to carry a mosquito repellent with you. Finally, do take time to go upstairs and check out Channa's unique paintings and have a chat with him. We found that to be quite an interesting experience.

Where to begin? After more than 24 hours of different flights and traveling we ended up at Channa's place and it was so much better than we could imagine. The apartment was super relaxing & comfy, with some really artsy interior and a beautiful surrounding garden. Channa and his family were lovely and made us feel incredibly welcome to Sri Lanka. Channa's art, his friendly approach & storytelling, VERY NICE breakfast & all in all just a welcome with huge and warm hands, made us way too happy with our stay. Hopefully we'll stay there once again (or twice)..

One of the best stays with airbnb. The place and the host were both so amazing that it's hard to describe with a review. Channa makes sure that we get everything we need and more. He exceeds our expectations. The place and the garden is heavenly. We didn't feel like we are in middle of a city. It was like we were surrounded by a rain forest. Channa gave us a delicious breakfast. Communication was perfect. We will always stay at his place. It's 5stars and plus.

Channa and his family are amazing hosts, and his home is beautiful. Our expectations were exceeded during our stay, both in the quality of the accomodation and the hospitality provided. The bed is very comfortable, there is a washing machine available, and even cold drinks provided in the fridge. I could not recommend staying with Channa more, we felt relaxed and inspired to be surrounded by his beautiful art and extraordainary garden. We plan on staying again.

Mr. Channa is a learned artist who offers a very delicate breakfast every day. His small garden is very beautiful, very quiet, every morning there are a lot of bird calls, close to nature, refreshing. A very nice check-in experience. Thanks to the Channa couple

This place is true heaven!! Lovely and artistic interiors. Everything is made to feel you like staying at home (Kitchen with all necessary equipment; Bathroom and shower which make you speechless; Iron, Hairdryer etc etc.) Channa and his wife were just fantastic, they help you with everything you need for your travels and the breakfast was just incredible. Communication prior arriving was more than easy and very comfortable. Situated not in the very central of Colombo, but just a 20 minute TukTuk or Bus ride to the central station; there is everything around in walking distance (supermarket, local food restaurants, walking streets etc). We can really recommend this beautiful place by heart and will always come back if in Colombo :) Thank you!

Gedara has been an amazing host and was extremely helpful with everything! I am definitely going to recommend this spot for everyone who is looking for a very nice and chill place to stay in Colombo. Even though, it's not in the city centre, but located in very convenient location with plenty restaurants and supermarkets around and very easy to get around. Definitely coming back to this place during our next stay in Colombo! Thank you Gedara!

In short: Amande's house is awesome and he and his family are 5-star hosts. I've used Airbnb and other Airbnb-type websites to book rooms many times before and this was my best experience to date. The house is a beautiful, light modernist townhouse on a quiet street just outside the very centre of Colombo. My girlfriend and I were commenting on how we'd like to build a place just like it some day. There are three levels with an open roof top chill space. The bedroom was very spacious, AC, seemingly no mosquitos and they even bothered to provide complimentary toothbrushes and shampoo in the en suite bathroom. Amande and his mum and brother were brilliant hosts, laid on a great breakfast, gave good nightlife tips and were good company for a drink when we got back. They even helped to get us out of a nightmare negotiation with the dodgy rental agency we hired a car from for our 11-day trip. The dubious rental guys had come to collect the vehicle and were erroneously demanding more money but the family came out and very diplomatically diffused the situation. I'm probably leaving out a few more things, but basically, on every level, between the house and the people you can't expect to get much more. Truly 5-star experience and if we're ever back in Colombo we'll be staying here again. Highly recommended.

Very clean room, quiet neighborhood and Amande and his mother are so kind and friendly!

Amande is a very pleasant and reliable host! Due to flight delays, my boyfriend and I arrived at separate late hours. Amande helped us get our missing luggage back from the airport, and furthermore arranged a driver for our roundtrip of Sri Lanka. This is more than what one could expect from a host! The room is very comfortable and clean, and we had a pleasant stay there!

Amande and family,they're the best host.I would give a friendlyness rating of 10/10 to them.They are very helpful and extremely friendly.The moment we checked into our room,we feel the warmth and friendliness.Anyone's who wish to travel to Colombo,you may consider Amande's (URL HIDDEN) you to Amande and family for making our holiday to Sri Lanka a memorable one.

Amande and his family were incredibly nice and supportive! He has a beautiful home in a good location. His mother and brother were so welcoming and helpful. Thanks for all the help!! All the best to you and your lovely wife on your ventures! Hope to stay in touch and would 100% recommend his accommodation for a stress free, relaxed, comfortable and safe stay with great company and conversation! Cheers!

Amande war ein super Gastgeber und war immer erreichbar. Das Zimmer und das Haus war sehr sauber und neu. Da unser Flug erst um Mitternacht war, durften wir noch bis 20.00 Uhr gratis in dem Zimmer bleiben. Ein super Abschluss von unserer 15- monatiger Weltreise :)

My son Luke and his girlfriend Sara had the most incredible stay with Amande. The accommodation was outstanding in every respect. Amande was an exceptional host. He kindly took Luke and Sara to places in Colombo so that they could get a sense of the city. They both reported that they experienced 5 star accommodation and treatment and would highly recommend Amande as a host.

VALUE for money and its a very big house . clean and modern. toiletries and basic cooking ingredients were provided. did not meet the host but she can be easily contactable via txt . couple of good size balcony's and good wifi . definitely recommend for anyone .

We stayed at 306 Bird park for only one night, but we would really love to stay longer next time. The house was very neat and clean and very spacious. The facilities matched 5 star hospitality. The kitchen had all the necessary utensils and stuff for our use and we really felt at home. The house had a play room as well where you can relax. The furniture were very cozy and comfortable. It is also located close to colombo. The host was very welcoming and warm. Even though we got late to get to this place around 1a.m he made sure that he welcomed us with a smile. All of us enjoyed our stay and would surely go again here in future.

Sushena's place is located in a quaint locality in the outskirts of the city. It is well maintained and spacious. Sushena is also a great host and quick to respond. We really enjoyed our stay here. The place is nicely done up and offers great value for money. Can't go wrong with it.

We loved the place, it was ideally located for the purpose of our trip, the host Sushena was very prompt in responding to our inquiry and questions. House has 3 bedrooms located on 1st floor, with 1 attached bathroom and one common bathroom, house is well equipped with all kitchen utensils/equipment, all cookware and crockery and cutlery required, washing machine. Wifi worked great. It also has a secured carport for 1 car in case you are renting a vehicle, there is a supermarket not too far away for your needs. Located in a quiet residential area, bit away from the main city area but has close access to some restaurants and food outlets in case you don't want to cook. Would definitely book again in the future.

Sushena's place at 306 Bird Park is a mini-paradise within the madness of Colombo. A great quiet neighbourhood and in close proximity to supermarkets, local eateries and very easily accessible to and fro with local transport. The house itself was beautiful... tastefully decorated with amazing attention to detail by Sushena, our host. Sushena and his family welcomed us in, and were available on the phone whenever we needed any help or advice - and made us feel completely at home. He even had toiletries across each of the bathrooms, lovely room linen across all and a very well-maintained kitchen... which made the stay very comfortable indeed. Would definitely encourage fellow travellers to SL to look this place up. I myself would love to stay there the next time I visit SL. Thanks Sushena for a wonderful time at your place. God bless. Cheers Rits Ritwik Sen

We loved the house and the neighborhood was nice too. Perfect place to stay if ur traveling with family. It was very homely. Will highly recommend☺

Had a wonderful stay at the place. Not only Dilkie & Romesh, but all the family members were very lovely [especially the small one] and co-operative. Room was nice and the house is located in a silent place and easily accessible area. Even they helped us with timely airport pick up & drop and gave info about the tourist places in different area. Never felt that we are away from home and will not forget the experience there. Thank you Dilkie & Romesh once again..

Romesh and Dilkie were very friendly and accommodating. They even helped with trains and tuk tuks. The room was comfortable and clean with nice private bathroom and air con. We enjoyed our short stay.

I had booked Dilkie & Romesh's accommodation for my parents stay in Colombo. Dilkie & Romesh's package of Airport pick up plus personalized day tour was very very convenient and far better value than the tourist packages as it was much more personalized. Would definitely recommend going with their tour if you are staying with them. Overall they were very friendly and helpful to my parents for any help on planning, taxis etc.

This conveniently located home was the perfect place for my father to stay while spending time in his home country of Sri Lanka. My dad stayed a few weeks with Dilkie and Romesh and says, they couldn't have been kinder". Personally, I am grateful to Dilkie and Romesh who went out of their way to make my dad feel at home. THANK YOU!

had a lovely stay at Romesh and Dilkie's place . Very warm people, it was nice to get to know them . They recommended a good Indian takeaway for us near by and it was such a god send for us to find dinner. Romesh also provides an airport drop and city tour at a charge. We used the airport drop and it made our life so easy early in the morning .

Хозяин потрясающий! Очень тёплый приём в дружной семье. Комната уютная, всё необходимое есть, кондиционер работает. Так получилось, что мы снимали жильё во время католического Рождества - Ромеш любезно пригласил нас присоединиться к празднованию! И мы ели вкуснейшие блюда, приготовленные его очаровательной женой. Ели руками, как настоящие шри-ланкийцы! :) Кроме того, каждое утро нам готовили хороший завтрак! На все вопросы отвечали, помогали разобраться в местной жизни. Рекомендуем!

It was an absolute delight to stay with Dilkie and Romesh. Ritesh and I felt at home and had a comfortable stay. They not just welcomed us with a hot cup of tea but also guided us on which places / restaurants to visit within Colombo. they helped us take the best route to Galle As well. The house was lovely and I loved their dogs :) Would definitely visit again whenever we come to Sri Lanka next.. thank you for making our stay so wonderful :)

Very nice and friendly welcome with a cup of tea, everything in the house neat and clean, breakfast very O.K., good information for sightseeing in Colombo, also once had lunch tere - was excellent. I felt like staying at good friends!

this is definitely the number one place to stay in comlobo in case your seeking a one-of-a-kind atmosphere. nim has decorated and furnished his place with so much love and well thought out detail that you will find yourself at home in a heartbeat. the house is huge, and the rooms are big and cosy as well. it offers literally everything you need and it's also suitable if you just want to relax at home for one day (in the garden or on the terrace!). I don't know how, but this all comes with a very reasonable price. plus, nim is also very helpful and keen to help find your way around town. I'm definitely coming back here when I'll be in colombo the next time. 5 stars!

コロンボ空港に夜11時に到着し、次の日キャンディへ移動する前泊に利用しました。空港までの迎えも事前にお願いしており、飛行機が遅れたにもかかわらずスムーズに会うことができ安心しました。次の日キャンディへ移動する際のツーリストカーも手配していただき、旅のプランを立てるのに色々相談に乗ってもらい大変助かりました。場所はコロンボ市内中心から少し離れてますが、静かで朝は緑の中で鳥のさえずりが聞こえ、リフレッシュし目覚めました。館内はインテリアデザイナーのニムさんご自身がデザインされたそうでとても素敵でした。部屋のバスルームはトイレとシャワーの床が繋がっているので、そこだけ慣れない方は注意が必要です。朝食も一応ついています。宿泊前も質問などにもすぐ返答がもらえ、終始スムーズにコミュニケーションとれました。とても安く素敵なところに泊まれて全体的に満足な滞在ができました。ありがとうございました。

如果你不嫌弃路途有点偏,这真是一个好住处!主人是将自己的别墅留出三间作为客房的。他是个设计师,去过中国很多地方,房间的每一个细节都可以看出是主人精心设计的。我们刚到住处,工作人员就为我们送上毛巾,感觉好温馨啊!早餐也是精心准备的,当地食物味道很好。只是隔音效果比较差。

The best place to stay in Colombo is definitely Nim's relaxing oasis! Every inch of this place is decorated with tasteful elements and great interieur. Colombo is a very busy city, but Nim gave us a "just like home"-feeling right from the beginning. he helped us in so many ways and gave us very important infos that you cant read in travelling guides. Book it!

Nim is a great host. He and his colleagues are very polite and helpful. They are like friends as well as family during the days when I stayed there. I ordered meals there too. Amazing Srilanka cuisine! The entire house is with wonderful design and the room is spacious, clean and comfy. I would love to recommend his place to users who plans to travel in Srilanka!

I had an excellent stay. Hosts were very welcoming, attentive and polite. We spent a lot of time talking over tea and I felt as a friend not a guest. The room was spacious and clean. The bathroom also modern with hot water and very clean. House large and beautiful wooden floors. Food was excellent. I will definitely return in the future.

Beautiful decoration. Good service. Quiet at night. Guys are very nice and warm!! Although a little bit far away hard to find.

Sehr freundliches Willkommen mit Fruitjuice und kalten Handtüchern zur Erfrischung. Sehr bemühte Gastgeber, die uns in jeglicher Hinsicht unterstützten und informierten. Sehr freundschaftlicher Umgang. Wunderschöne Unterkunft und wunderschönes Zimmer ( Gastgeber ist Innenarchitekt). Preis/Leistung top. Regionales Frühstück sensationell. Warm welcome with juice and refreshing towels. Our hosts were very kind and were supporting us in any needs. Wonderful place to stay with gorgeous rooms (Host is interial designer). Local breakfast was awesome.
