Self Catering Accommodation in Polonnaruwa

We are a family from the UK who visited Sri Lanka for a holiday. While searching for a good apartment or villa near the temples and relics in the Polonnaruwa area, we came across this little gem. Pearl White was one of only two properties available for our chosen dates. At first, we were a bit hesitant to book, as it was a recently listed property with just two reviews, both from local visitors. However, I decided to reach out to the property, and I was able to connect directly with the owner, Sisira. He was kind enough to explain the facilities in detail and share valuable insights about the place. Our conversation gave us a very good understanding and helped build our confidence in choosing Pearl White over the other options. It turned out to be a fantastic decision! We thoroughly enjoyed our two-night stay and we booked the entire villa. The location is excellent, very close to the town centre and major heritage sites. The villa itself is spacious, cozy, and exceptionally clean from the beds and linen to the toilets. Everything was well-maintained. We found every little convenience available, from matchboxes and a lit barbecue to massage bathtubs. I highly recommend this property without any hesitation, and we would definitely love to return. Special thanks to Sisira for taking such good care of us and always being reachable via WhatsApp whenever we needed anything.

The host knows perfectly how to behave amongst his guests, everything is a private tour with him. We took the cooking class, the boat tour and the ancient city tour. All have been wonderful. His personality makes the whole visit an amazing experience for all sorts of visitors. The ancient city tour is very well done, very informative and super chill to do. He knows all about the place, is a guide for you too and all with the most friendly smile. He’ll make your experience unique and can even help you to find the right food around town. The villa has a spacious set up, including a washing machine (with detergent even).

Wonderfull place in front of the rice fields, warmly welcome and family ! They were very helpful with us, and the breakfast and meal were incredibly tasty !

Very clean room, exceptional breakfast and host family. WiFi,warm water, water pressure and A/C worked perfectly. You can also eat dinner at the hotel. It is just a 5mins walk from the lake promenade where we watched beautiful sunsets. 10mins bicycle ride to the maingate of the ancient sights, 5min to the museum and ticket office. Can rent bicycle at the hotel as well. we loved our stay

The apartment was very spacious and equipped with everything we needed. We slept very well here! The apartment is located close to the station, but it is still quiet. It is well conected with Pollanaruwa and other cities. The hosts were very kind and helpful! We came as guests and left as good friends.
