Villa RISITHENMI

We spent two wonderful nights at this gorgeous heritage stay, and it was easily one of the highlights of our Sri Lanka trip. The villa has been beautifully curated and thoughtfully converted into a guest stay, retaining all the charm and character of its heritage roots. From the moment we arrived, everything was seamless. The host reached out to us in advance to coordinate our arrival details, making check-in completely hassle-free — a small but much-appreciated touch. But the real star of this stay was our host. Out of all the places we stayed during our Sri Lanka trip, she was hands down the best. Warm, friendly, and incredibly attentive, she went above and beyond at every turn — arranging bike rentals, organizing a whale watching excursion, and always being just a message away whenever we had a question. She also took the time to recommend wonderful local spots to explore and genuinely checked in on all our needs throughout our stay. The heritage villa itself is a delight, but it's the host's exceptional hospitality that truly elevates this place. If you're looking for a stay where you feel genuinely cared for, look no further. An absolute gem — highly recommended!

Great location close to Ahangama center and with a beach just across the road. Very nice villa with access to a kitchen and washing machine. Our room was spacious and clean, with a comfortable bed. We were also allowed to stay until the evening because of a late flight home. Super friendly and welcoming staff. Definitely recommend staying here!

Beautiful, clean & spacious rooms, superb location & the kindest, most accommodating & responsive hosts!

Good location and the building is beautiful

Not really worth £14 a night if I’m honest. WiFi never worked. Rooms weren’t the cleanest and the door felt really not secure.
