Subhasha Summer House

Lovely villa, it had just been refurbished so everything was immaculate. Comfortable 4 poster bed, nice outdoor bathroom, a kitchen with all the amenities that I needed. Lovely outdoor seating area where I could do my yoga. Beautiful garden with sunbeds. They have a massage room and I booked a couple, both were excellent. Good wifi connection. The host was very attentive and always available to message if I needed anything. Just a 5min walk to the beach and restaurants. I stayed here for over 2 months whilst doing some volunteer work but this place is also a bit of luxury for a holiday.

There is currently no option to buy breakfast / dinner but this wasn't an issue as I cooked in the kitchen or ate at one of the nearby restaurants.

Симпатичная вилла в старинном стиле. Красивая мебель. Хорошая уборка, чистое постельное белье. Расположена в 5 минутах ходьбы от пляжа. Общительный хозяин. Есть свой дворик, где можно отдохнуть. Тихо и спокойно. В 10-15 минутах езды деревни Диквелла или Дондра, с магазинами и инфраструктурой. В 15-20 минутах езды отличные пляжи Диквелла и Хирикетия.

Это не совсем отдельная вилла. У вас есть отдельный вход, но внутри комнаты выходят во внутренний дворик, отгороженный от других соломенным шторами. Лично мне не хватило приватности. Деревня Талалле очень маленькая и тихая, я увидела только один магазин и пару кафе в шаговой доступности. Если вы без транспорта, то это может быть проблемой. Хозяин всегда на связи и периодически приходит навестить вас. Но для меня это было слишком навязчиво. Возможно просто разный менталитет. Кухня слабо оборудована, вы сможете приготовить только самые простые блюда. Нет глубоких тарелок.

A fantastic stay in peaceful Tallala with our super host Isuru who welcomed us like family and made our stay very comfortable helping with everything from transport to Tuk Tuk rental and restaurant recommendations. A very warm and helpful guy who seems to really care for his guests and who has taken great pride in developing a comfortable and stylish summer house perfect for families or any small group looking for a calm and quiet stay 4mins away from Tallala beach. We particularly enjoyed watching the wildlife in the morning with a coffee, mongoose, monkey's and chipmunks. Would highly recommend and would return again, the nicest calm and empty beach we have enjoyed in SL to date.

Nothing stood out, can't think of anything.

A lovely place to stay just a short walk from Talalla beach. The host was also very welcoming and helpful! I would recommend staying here if you’re coming to Talalla!

Nothing!

Beautiful house in a beautiful location and the garden is amazing, all of the bedrooms are a really good size with super comfy beds and both bathrooms are modern and finished to a really high standard, the kitchen is well equipped with everything you need It's only a 2 minute walk to the lovely quiet Talalla beach Isuru the host is lovely, and really helpful in offering information on many different trips, and always on hand if required Would highly recommend, this place, it's a real gem 💎

La casa è immersa nel verde tra palme e scimmie, a pochi passi dal mare. Incantevole!! Isuru è un host discreto e attento. Ci ha consigliato dove mangiare (benissimo!) e ci ha organizzato un taxi con Kumar, persona squisita! Sicuramente consigliato!

Al nostro arrivo c’era un forte odore di “chiuso” in casa. L’abbiamo fatto presente ad Isuru che ha detto che, per il futuro, si preoccuperà di arieggiare la casa. Il bagno è collegato direttamente con un antibagno che ha aperture non chiudibili e quindi esposto direttamente alla natura.

La limpieza. Y además tienen un maravilloso servicio de masaje por muy buen precio.

Creo que el precio es un poco alto para la temporada.

Isuru is a wonderful host. He made us feel at home in his beautiful property and was extremely attentive. Any requests or questions we had we could just WhatsApp him and he'd reply within minutes. The house is easy walking distance to the beach and set in stunning gardens - perfect for a relaxing stay.

The property is very modern and has nice decor

The house has a beautiful garden and a lot of character.

Windows in my room didn’t have mosquito screens, so I had to keep the shutters closed, making it very dark and cave like. I think this is only an issue in the back rooms, so it’s worth choosing carefully. The hosts were not terribly generous - there was no welcome drink, for instance. I had to pay for bottled water (unusual in Sri Lanka), and the fried fish meal I had was overpriced (it didn’t come with rice or accompaniments) and not that nice. Although there was a kitchen, there were no basics such as salt, milk or oil.

Rooms huge and spacious, fantastic bathroom, and outside an amazing place to sit and watch the fireflies at night. A relaxing paradise and 5 min walk to the beach The host was so welcoming and helpful, and the breakfast was superb. The best Sri Lankan breakfast we had during our trip. Also so helpful to have beers and water already in the fridge. We will be back. It’s an incredible place to stay.

The perfect hosts! Isuru and Mama are the most wonderful hosts, the house is immaculate, the food is amazing and Isuru couldn't be more helpful and friendly. Truly the best place we stayed in Sri Lanka. Isuru organised tuk tuk, massage and scooter hire for us. Nothing was too much trouble. This is a very special place to stay. We were sad to leave.

Isuru is a very welcoming host. The property is situated within a beautiful garden which is 5 minutes walk down the hill to Talalla beach. We had use of cooking facilities and a large fridge which is very useful, and stocked with beer and water. The breakfasts were amazing!! Tallala is a beautiful place to stay with a handful of lovely places to eat in the evening.

I try like this place, very peaceful and close to the beach.

Near to the beach, kitchen for cooking, nice garden and friendly host.

The door isn't lockable

Very clean and professional host, isiru was very friendly, lovely home made food, beers and water in the fridge. Nice air con. Few minutes walk to the beach. Lots of tuk tuks around if you want to explore surrounding beaches.

Nothing.

great location, beautiful grounds, host very friendly and accommodating

there was nothing I didn’t like

we stayed in the 3 bedroom villa, absolutely beautiful, fab location, very near a quiet stunning beach, host fantastic helpful and attentive

nothing all fabulous

The owner Isuru couldn't be a better host. The accommodation is immaculate and the food is outstanding, the rice and curry (cooked by Isuru's mother) was delicious Sri Lankan home cooking. There were cold drinks waiting for us too. Isuru was always on hand and with great communication skills. He helped us with any queries, transport and a day trip out. Thank you so much, we hope to come again.

Spotlessly clean, great location, beautiful villa, set in lovely gardens, fabulous home cooked breakfast and family were really lovely. Would definitely be happy to book this accommodation again

Nothing

Clean Quiet Owner very helpfull Mosquitonet Aircondition Nice breakfast Cold Beer

We were five friends staying with the host Isuru. On arrival we found cooled water and beers in the fridge. The accommodation is beautiful and facilities were excellent. He accommodated motorbikes and was very helpful. We would recommend Talalla and Subhasha summer cottage as a must do in Sri Lanka!

We have a wonderful vacation The house is in a beautiful area.Very green and very peaceful.absolutely quiet. There is a lot of things to see and to do arround. The house is spacius and clean.We had every thing what we need.The owner was very helpful.We are definitely recommend to stay here and I'm sure that we will come again.

Such warm and welcoming hosts! I stayed in a beautiful, cosy room with an amazing stone shower/bathroom. Felt like a home away from home with delicious food and I was very well looked after during my stay. I would highly recommend staying here (you will not be disappointed!)... I will certainly be back next time I'm in the area :)

Couldn't fault this place. This is a hidden gem not to be missed!

Amzing place to stay.Isuru is very kind host.Food is great.

The host and decor were second to none.

The unscreened bathroom facility. Fortunately I was traveling with one of my daughters and we managed an adequate temporary screening for the shower. Also there was no complimentary bottled drinking water or toiletries (apart from a bar of soap).

We had great 3 days in Talalla,Staying at Subhasha cottage.The rooms were clean and modern.Bathroom was very clean.It was great seeing all the wildlife,as the visits from the monkeys.The beach is amazing.Very helpful hosts as well.We'll definitely book here again.

The cottage itself is situated very close to the beach and the main road. It is surrounded by a beautiful garden, and the cottage itself was very cozy and comfortable. We had a gracious host, who aided us in every matter and heeded our requests well. The bathroom facilities were really good, specially in the couple room. We got a couple room and two adjoined family rooms which were all spacious, and had a kitchen with necessary facilities. Air conditioning was good. We cooked in and got some meals from outside,so we cannot attest to the food in the cottage. They provide two refrigerators,which again were in really good working condition,, water bottles there are not complimentary. Only 200m walk to a serene,calm beach, not very suitable for bathing though.the tide was too high. Overall thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Had a great 2 night stay here. The property is very nice and only a 5 minute walk to the beach. The rooms are also comfortable, and meals are served in a nice little interior living space. It's all very cozy. The hosts are also kind & helpful, and they prepared some delicious meals for us. We would come back here if we ever return to peaceful little Talalla :)

The shutters make the rooms a bit dark, but they can be opened up to the outdoors.

A wonderful place to stay. Beautiful house and the host Isuru is very friendly and has created some excellent guest suites. Breakfast and dinner was just delicious too. It was nice to have the kitchen area. We 100% recommend this as a great place to stay!

Nothing

very convenient and well run, comfortable and great service.

Great place to stay.Isuru is amazing host.I love it.

A wonderful place to stay - we loved the heritage style house and the decor was beautiful. The best bathroom! Great hospitality and delicious breakfast and dinner - served with smiles. I can certainly recommend a stay here.

We had a great time staying here. What we didn't realize beforehand is that there are two rooms with large beds, so this is great for a family as well as solo travelers or couples. As others have said, having the kitchen was a nice plus. Overall, there was a lot of space and Isuru was a very kind and generous host. We especially liked how clean and newly done the bathroom was. The food provided everyday was great and he was always there to answer any questions and help us. Highly recommend!
