Tamarind Villa

Kelaniya

Situated in Kelaniya, 9.2 km from R Premadasa Stadium and 11 km from Khan Clock Tower, Tamarind Villa offers a garden and air conditioning.

Tamarind Villa is a seamless blend of modern luxury and timeless charm. The villa’s tasteful antique furniture exudes grandeur, beautifully complemented by contemporary amenities like air conditioning, a jacuzzi, a mini gym, and a fully equipped kitchen with the latest appliances. The spacious verandah is a highlight, offering a serene view of the lush, green lawn. It's the perfect spot to unwind with a cup of tea and embrace the slower pace of life. Despite its tranquil ambiance, the villa is conveniently located in the heart of Kelaniya, just a short distance from the iconic Kelaniya Temple. The breakfast we ordered was a delight—fresh, flavorful, and satisfying. The staff stood out for their friendliness and attentiveness, ensuring our stay was comfortable. However there is a minor drawback. Finding the villa can be challenging as there is no board displaying its name. Adding clear directions or a visible sign board would greatly enhance the overall experience. Overall , Tamarind villa is an excellent retreat for anyone seeking a luxurious and peaceful getaway with a touch of history.

Manoji and Manitha are a lovely couple and made me feel so welcomed and cared for in my first 24 hrs in Sri Lanka. They picked me up from the airport and were the perfect welcome to Colombo. the Highbury Colombo is a beautiful architecturally designed house and garden, and feels very secluded despite being in the big city. I had a very peaceful one night stay and a delicious homemade Sri Lankan breakfast in the morning before I left to the south coast. I would highly recommend the Highbury as a beautiful spot to stay in Colombo - I would absolutely go back :) thank you!

    Heritage Eco Resort exceeded my expectations for an extended business stay. The spacious room provided ample relaxation space, and the hotel's amenities ensured a comfortable and convenient experience. Reliable Wi-Fi, accommodating staff, and a central location made my stay stress-free. I highly recommend it for both business trips and family vacations. The calm and quiet environment is perfect for unwinding, whether you're visiting Colombo as a foreigner or a local.

    Not a hotel accommodation but a genuine and authentic experience. This small hotel offers what no other hotel can offer, a look into Sri Lanka familiy live, culture and cuisine. Room is great with beautifull views and having the chance to enjoy true Sri Lankan homecooking is priceless. If this is not enough, the owners are a highly educated and international experienced couple able and willing to have a real conversation, no religuous/cultural/monetary obstacles but open and honest.

    Well equipped apartment with all the necessities: a cozy bedroom, kitchenette, additional items such as salt & pepper, detergent soap, washing powder & liquids made the stay quite easier and quite comfortable. I really enjoyed all the facilities and extended my stay by another week due to the convenience of the location. This is my second stay at the Paramount Residence.

Priyadarshini the owner of the property is been very friendly from the time I booked the accommodation.She made my stay very comfortable. Also her staff Kanthi and Latha are also very caring. I highly recommend this place.

    We stayed there as our first stop in Srilanka. Rooms were very spacious and comfortable. There was no kitchen but we knew this before booking. Jason and his mother were excellent hosts, from check in at 4 am till the time we checked out. There is a nice garden at the back and sit out area. Grocery stores and few restaurants are at walking distance. You can easily get a tuk-tuk from the main road which is short walk from the property.

    My recent stay at the Heritage Eco Resort in Kelaniya was a delight. This eco-friendly gem exceeded my expectations in every way. From sustainable practices to serene natural surroundings, it's a perfect eco-getaway. The accommodations were comfortable, and the staff was warm and welcoming. If you're looking for a peaceful retreat that's as good for the environment as it is for your soul, this is the place to be—highly recommended!

    This was by far the most modern stay we had in Sri Lanka! The hotel even had its own elevator (which they were very proud of). Since it's outside the city, it was a very quiet neighbourhood in a green environment. A large room with a comfortable bed and a very big, modern bathroom (even with a bath!). We would highly recommend this place if you have your own transportation (we had a rental tuktuk).

    Very Nice small hotel in a quiet location in a residency area. Use to be a big residential house, but a few years ago made in to hotel. Good room, everything worked perfect. The staff was very helpful and kind, both after the booking and doing the stay. Thank you😊
