Big room and awesome shower. Great place to stay the day before we needed to catch a flight. The free shuttle to the airport made it a seamless experience and we really appreciated the convenience.

Very peaceful location and super friendly owner. The house is large and has plenty of room, plus AC and a nice warm shower. Its located away from the road noise but still close enough to the supermarkets.

The host Mr.Sasika and his family were beyond our expectations, were very, very helpful. They went beyond their way to provide us with so delicious food as I couldn’t go out very often out for meals. The whole villa was very very clean and with comfortable beds.

I arrived at Astig Villa after what turned into a long journey from Arugam Bay – a ride that should have taken 4.5 hours stretched to 9.5, and by the time I arrived it was already night. The staff welcomed me so warmly and even prepared dinner for me, which was such a relief after a difficult day of travel. I had been travelling around Sri Lanka for two weeks, and staying here was exactly what I needed – a chance to relax by the beautiful pool and enjoy the peaceful surroundings. The staff looked after me so well, cooking breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and the owner was always available if I needed anything. He even organised a tuk tuk to take me into town, which was especially helpful in an area I wasn’t yet familiar with. What makes Astig Villa so special is the personal touch – it feels more like staying with friends than at a hotel. I’d especially recommend it to anyone flying into Sri Lanka late at night, as it’s very close to the airport, and the nearby lagoon is a beautiful spot to watch the fishermen go by. Whether you’re starting or ending your Sri Lankan journey, this is the perfect place to stay.

This a very tranquil oceanside hotel, with cosy rooms and kind, friendly staff. We loved the pool as well. Perfect accommodation before or after a flight as there is not much to see in Negombo. Breakfast and dinner was varied and tasty.
