Serendip Villa Holiday Home Talalla

Stayed at Serendip for two months while working with WECare, the street dog charity in the area. My room was comfortable and Nisha the caretaker cleaned it every week as well as making breakfast for me every day. She really made sure to look after me during my stay. Had everything I needed - laundry and kitchen were very handy.

Can’t think of anything.

Die Unterkunft war groß und geräumig schöner Garten. Die Gastgeberin war ultra nett und lieb sie hat uns immer unterschiedliches leckeres Frühstück gemacht. Das war wirklich das Highlight wie nett die war. :)

Mit einem Erfrischungsgetränk wurden wir freundlich begrüßt. Ruhige Lage, man kann vom Bus aus gehen. Wir konnten Wäsche waschen und es gab auch eine Küche für Selbstversorger. Der Strand ist fußläufig erreichbar und nicht überfüllt. Wir haben eine Nacht verlängert

Wie in fast allen Unterkünften im Land fehlen Möglichkeiten um Sachen aufzuhängen. Eine einfache Wandleiste mit Haken würde ja schon reichen.

Parfait ! Logement excellent, accueil excellent.

Tout est parfait !

Very nice position a bit far from the main road, so i really quite. Everything is clean and the room is pretty nice. Nisha is very kind and helpfull and prepares everyday a differt delicious breakfast. Great value for money. Thank you Nisha

Nisha è stata un angelo, ben accolta e aiutata con un piccolo problema! Colazione abbondante e gustosa. Pulizia super. Casa accogliente e tranquilla.

Das Frühstück war super liebevoll von der Gastgeberin vor Ort zubereitet. Es gab traditionelles Frühstück mit frischen Früchten und Egg hoppers oder einem traditionellen Nudelgericht. Es hat sehr gut geschmeckt. Nisha war immer sofort zur Hilfe und hat mir auch geholfen, wenn ich ein Tuktuk oder Taxi bestellen wollte. Alles in allem hab ich mich sehr wohl gefühlt.

Nisha, the caretaker, is beyond fantastic. She is so thoughtful and kind. She helped me find (through her daughter) a taxi to a national park and after I told her (genuinely!!) that the mango she had given me was the best of my life, she brought me a bag the next morning with two off her tree from home. Her cooking is excellent. The property is clean and quiet.

If you want to be super near the beach this is a bit of a walk fyi —- I personally didn’t mind

Beautifully clean accommodation with great facilities. Nisha is absolutely wonderful and she cooks an amazing breakfast - which was different every morning. The guest house is in a residential area and is nice and quiet. There's a small supermarket within 50 meters and a bigger one 5 minutes walk away. I had a lovely stay here.

I didn't mind but if you don't like walking its a 20 minute walk to the swimming area of the beach

My stay at Serendip was absolutely magical, Nisha was so lovely and was an amazing cook. She was also so kind and gave me advice about where else to travel in Sri Lanka and what to do. The location was in a lovely residential part of town and wasn’t touristy. The beach was a 10 minute walk away and there was a supermarket right round the corner. The facilities were amazing - a full kitchen and dining room upstairs, which I had to myself, as well as another one downstairs where I ate the wonderful Sri Lankan breakfast that Nisha prepared for me. The room was also perfect, great AC, a mosquito net meaning I didn’t get bitten once, a balcony which looked out onto mango and banana trees that were full of monkeys and beautiful birds.

The WiFi was a bit patchy but I just used 4g when it wasn’t working.

Posizione rispetto al mare

Colazione poco sostanziosa, personale non parla inglese

Very friendly and clean place Local breakfast was super

Super entspannte Atmosphäre, schönes Zimmer mit Balkon. Kühlschrank,Herd, Wasserkocher im Gemeinschaftsbereich. 10 min bis zum Strand, ich habe lieber dort gewohnt als in den Touristenwelt am Strand Sehr leckeres Frühstück übrigens..

Me and my partner stayed at Serendip Villa for a full month, and we really felt at home here. It's a beautiful stay, located in a calm village area just a few minutes walk from the beach. We have enjoyed the clean and well equipped kitchen, the comfortable room, and the wonderful view from the balcony. Nisha is a caring and attentive host, and she made our stay extra special. Lastly, we must mention the sweet cats who live there. Please buy them some fish at the store right next to the stay 🐱🐟

Nothing 😊

Ik verbleef hier 10 dagen en het was fantastisch. Zeer rustig gelegen. De gastvrouw was enorm vriendelijk, maakte verschillende soorten ontbijt en hield rekening met specifieke wensen. Zacht en goed bed, eveneens de kussens. De gemeenschappelijke keuken was voor mij een pluspunt.

Such a beautiful place to stay!

I had a lovely time at Serendip. The housekeeper is a very lovely lady and made me feel very welcome and at home. The breakfast was lovely.

Everything, Saman is very nice and helpful, the room is clean and confortable and breakfast is very good! Highly recommended

Nothing

Room quite nice and comfortable not noisy.

I strongly suggest to use mosquitos net and make sure you have those electronic devices on to keep them away.

Recommend for the best place to stay safe and peacefully on your vacation.everything was excellent. 10/10/10 And recommend go the talalla beach.that is the best long and silence beach i ever saw in my life.you can walk more than 2km on the beach area.and have a little mountain to the climb.

Everything this was perfect.

This villa is in an excellent location within a quiet and friendly neighborhood. It is clean well-maintained and equipped with all essential facilitis including a kitchen and ample dining space.

Good place and friendly staff

Nice large garden clean room and bathroom

N/A

Good, Nice staff and cooperative. Good facilities as well.

NISHA ♥️ a lovely, caring woman! This place felt like a home from home because of her. Very acommodating, will make breakfast at the time to suit you and it was always very nice! The laundry service is great especially because you get sweaty every day from the heat 😅 Nice, clean air conditioned rooms that have on suits. Freedom to come and go as you like with a set of keys. Very secure with gate and cameras. Location is great as short walk from beach and close to local shops. Lovely companion animals hanging out there at the serendip…Little cat, puppy forest 😍 and two bunnies 😊 also a cute, relaxing garden to hang out in if you wish. I highly recommended staying here.

What’s not to like :)

I was very grateful for the air con! Lovely garden with hammock, nice balcony, comfy bed, shower with very good water pressure and even warm water if you want it! Little kitchen with the basics - fridge, microwave, stove and toaster so you can cook if you want. Delicious breakfast made by Nisha every day.

Only a short walk ~10 minutes from the beach, and about 30 minutes from the west side of the beach where most restaurants. This isn’t far but when it was dark after 6:30 it’s a very dark walk so I ended up getting a tuk tuk back from dinner most evenings as a solo woman just in case. Other travellers/workers I met were all staying in accommodation right on the west side of the beach right near all the restaurants so it would have been nice to feel comfortable walking home after dinner like they did!

Nice Holiday Home with large garden furniture room clean and bathroom.kitchen with all the items near to the Talalla beach .super stay

NA

The homestay is really clean, calm and has a nice garden, great breakfast, a water dispenser and aircons! Everyone is really friendly and welcoming. They also did my laundry. The beach is only a short walk away.

-

balcony with a nice view, green surroundings, very good local breakfast, we could use the washing machine and the bikes, we could take the dog for a walk, everyone was very friendly, uncomplicated extention of our stay, the beach in Talalla is quite empty so there are not a lot of tourists there which was perfect for us, we loved our stay!

Welcoming, charming, and affordable! + We felt very welcome, Nisha is a great host, attentive, and very welcoming. There is everything you need, and the location is perfect, 10 minutes on foot to the beach, market close-by. Breakfast was delicious and balanced, surroundings green and full of animals and birds. Highly recommended

N/A

A fabulous stay that makes you want to come back. + The residential and secure side of the location, the external maintenance that makes it very pampering. The common areas and rooms are tastefully decorated and very clean. The host’s kindness, the breakfasts are very good. Close to a beautiful beach, but not too tourist. A washing machine and a kitchen are at guests' disposal. - Nothing, everything was perfect.

Nathing

We love the place it was very peaceful and quiet. Waking up to the sound of the birds( even a bird was tapping on our bathroom window one morning).nisha was very welcoming. The breakfast was delicious. The beds are one of the most comfortable we have stayed in and lovely big puffy pillows. Forest, the puppy loves to play. Nisha also gave us a local tuk tuk drivers phone number, which was really helpful I would Highly recommend staying here and very reasonably priced Plenty hot water in the shower which is also a bonus also

Nothing negative to say

This villa is in an excellent location within a quiet and friendly neighborhood. It is clean, well-maintained, and equipped with all essential facilities, including a kitchen and ample dining space, ensuring a comfortable stay. The owner is responsive to messages sent through the booking portal. A quality breakfast is provided by Nisha, who serves it with warmth and kindness, always wearing a happy and pleasant smile. Talalla Beach is about a 12-minute walk away along a relatively quiet street. Compared to other beaches on Sri Lanka’s southern coast, it is less crowded, making it a peaceful spot to relax.

Nothing really much. A chair within the room would be nice.

this place felt like home! Nisha is a wonderfully warm host The food is delicious and a great beach is not far on foot The place is beautiful if you like animals, there is a cute cat, rabbits and a really nice dog♥️ I'm looking forward to coming back soon, I already miss the place🌞

Best

My score does not reflect the staff but instead the management. The staff at the accommodation were nice and the breakfast was good.

I will assume the owner of the accommodation was expecting this review from me. I had booked the ground floor apartment. I received a message on Whatsapp saying that there was an issue on booking and asked if I could take the room with balcony with garden view. He did not send any pictures of the room. When asked I assumed that I would receive the equivalent in value by getting the room as initially the owner did not offer me any discount for downgrading my stay. When I arrived I saw that the room was super small, The kitchen was shared by all the other guests so I raised a complaint to the owner. Initially the owner seemed angry about my complaint and had an angry tone in the phone as I had said yes to taking the room because I could not stay in the apartment, from what I understood on the phone the apartment was being repaired. However I told the owner that downgrading without any compensation is crazy and after a bit we agreed on a discount. I then entered the room and saw the balcony which was told to me having a "garden view" however instead I was looking directly at the roof of a building and not a garden. The balcony was flooded with water because of a damaged pipe so I was not able to go out on the balcony for the first 24h. I contacted booking and informed the owner that I would file a complaint with them. He then called me and in the end offered me to pay half the price, as I was going alone to do safari in Yala I decided to take the offer as doing a safari alone is expensive so I could use the additional money there. On the second to last day someone arrived at the accommodation for the ground floor apartment and was able to get the apartment. It therefore seems like the owner had double booked which is why I ended up in this situation. The owner should have offered me some sort of compensation as a minimum immediately and not upon request from me or through me contacting booking.

This property felt like home. The room isn’t huge but having the balcony and the use of the kitchen and dining area was great. The bathroom was the best we’ve had with nice hot water showers. They also have a free washing machine! Nisha, our caretaker provides a delicious Sri Lankan breakfast that changes daily. We extended for another 3 days we enjoyed it so much.

The only thing I could make better was having a squeegee in the bathroom to get rid of the water on the floor after showering and having a few hooks to hang your clothes.

The Villa is located about a 10 min walk from the beach. Well away from the main road and therefore very quiet all day and night. Lovely room and balcony with separate kitchen facilities on the 1st floor. A washing machine is located on the ground floor also. Nisha (the host) serves a really great breakfast, such nice food. I would highly recommend this Villa.

Nothing

It was clean and quiet. Breakfast was good and the host was lovely.

The room was spacious and had everything needed for a long term stay with the well equipped shared kitchens and very clean and modern bathrooms, and a washing machine. There is a food shop a 2 minute walk away. Nisha who cleaned and made breakfast was a very lovely lady and always helpful and happy to help whenever needed! It made Serendip feel like home. It’s on the quieter end of Talalla beach but feels private and is still close to the beach and bus stop! The shared eating, chilling and outdoor areas are a big bonus

We had great time at the villa, Nisha - the caretaker is extremely friendly and helpful. Great breakfast. The rooms and bathrooms are clean, there is even hot water! You can also buy handcrafted gem jewelry there. Highly recommend!

Comfortable clean room. Fantastic breakfast served with a smile and a nice pot of tea. Washing machine and dry racks. Staff (Nisha) fantastic. Really nice bathroom with nice water pressure and hot water access. Shared kitchen. Kittens and monkeys! Great value for the price. Staff is quick to help with anything you need.

Not much! It was a really nice stay. It's a bit far from things, but you can get a tuk tuk or a scooter to get around. The stove was the only thing I didn't like - it doesn't have a starter button so you have to light gas with a flame! I'm not a fan of that 😂

Clean Villa With Nice Garden Good Breakfast Good Staff. Nice Beach Talalla

Great

Great location - 10mins walking to the beach with easy bus stops. great communication with owner and Nisha. Breakfast was good and changed everyday - eg toast, hoppers, fruit and coffee. Nisha was always super friendly and promt with the breakfast! Thank you Nisha for all your effort - we really appreciate it! Great value. Very happy with AC and mosquito nets! drink water, cooking, fridge and washing facilities available.

We could not get the hot water to work - but did not need it!

Lovely place! We stayed in the downstairs apartment for 2 weeks and it was perfect, really spacious with a kitchen, bathroom, bedroom and large living area. There’s a washing machine outside that’s shared with other guests. Located in a quiet/rural area but only a short walk to the beach and a short bus ride to busier towns. Nisha is lovely and looked after us so well, she cooked us a big breakfast every morning even came at 6:30am some mornings to make us breakfast. You can request to have delicious dinner there also or if not there are some nice restaurants by the beach too. Was sad to leave!

Due to the location there are a lot of mosquitoes around but this can’t be helped. There is a good mosquito net in the bedroom but make sure to bring plenty of decent bug spray too

The property is set in a good location within walking distance of the beach and about a 10 minute drive from others. Nisha served us great breakfasts and we had dinner there one night too. They also provide a laundry service which was super helpful.

Nothing

nice room, lovely garden in the front and friendly host

Very lovely host Nisha. Friendly and made every effort to communicate. Nice Air con, comfortable bed. Good breakfast

fabulous

Had to come back for another couple nights at the end of our trip because we just love it so much here! Thank you Prasath for everything, we are so sad to leave 🙏🧡

We stayed for one nights in Serendip Villa Holiday home. The Hosts were very friendly and helpful. The breakfast and the dinner was delicious. The AC worked perfekt and the bathroom was clean and the shower was good I liked everything, this place is highly recommended. Prasath the Manager was fantastic, he made me feel like home. If you want a comfortable laid back place and relax, this is the place to go.

Great location, 10 minute walk to Talalla Beach. we had delicious breakfast and dinner there every day and Staff were very kind and friendly Self serve laundry, kitchen and drinking Water on site were greatly appreciated.

I have had a wonderful stay serendip villa it is remarkably peace full and quite amid lush jangles full of birds and occasional langurs. Caretakers are doing a great job of hospitality. Keeping place very neat and well maintained few grocery shops are nearby. Kitchen with all essentials. Talalla beach is very nice easliy reachable. Would definitely recommend to stay in this more authentic part of the sri lanka for purer local experience

Absolutely wonderful stay

The food was good and Nisha, who works there, was incredibly helpful, always going out of her way to make the stay more enjoyable, she was fantastic. The downstairs flat is great, spacious and has all amenities. The upstairs room share a kitchen with all amenities as well.

The manager, Prasad, was horrible. When I first arrived he gave me a room upstairs that didn’t have hot water even though I paid for the flat downstairs. But he gave the flat to other guests as a free upgrade before I arrived which meant I had 3 nights in the wrong room without hot water. Then he didn’t give me proper information about the beaches available around or warned me about mosquitoes. I got so badly bitten by the mosquitoes in the garden I had a strong allergic reaction. Finally on my last day, Prasad moved the new guests into my flat before the agreed check out time without warning me (he had confirmed he would move them into the flat after my departure) so when I came back from the beach there were strangers in my flat, having full access to all my belongings, money and travel documents. Totally unacceptable and unprofessional. If it wasn’t for Nisha, this place would be a total disaster. The management is appalling.

A lovely villa in the most relaxing village, the hosts are so friendly and helpful. The beautiful beach is only a 10minute walk. Breakfast was always delicious, great clean rooms with air con, and a lovely outdoor patio/balcony to hang out in the evenings. Kitchen facilities were a good standard for basic cooking. Prasath and Nisha are wonderful hosts and we are so grateful for their hospitality :) Thank you!

Great saty The villa has large beautiful garden a large bedroom with AC good bathroom with hotwater blacony. Kitchen dining area. Breakfast is tasty with fresh fruits also tasty dinner. Free bikes. In 2 minutes supermarket in 6 minutes walking Talalla Beach helpful staff recommened

everything is perfect.

We loved our stay at Serendipity Villa. The hosts were so kind and helpful, offering free laundry and water throughout our stay. The breakfasts were fabulous. The host also kindly offered to drop us to restaurants and the bus stop.

We had a great stay! The hosts were kind and made us feel like home the room was nice and clean the AC worked perfekt and the bathroom clean and the shower was good with hotwater The breakfast and the dinner was delieious.large nice garden nice dining area. Talalla beach wich is by for the quietest beach we have seen in sri lanka its 7 mint walk. They have 2 bikes free of charge. Abusolutely Recommended

Everything was perfect

The service was excellent, the host did everything to meet our wiches. We had a very good breakfast, and we also enjoyed a very nice dinner - the host has a restaurant, very convient if you feel like staying at the place.

Talalla Beach is a very quiet place, but if you want a more lively place, it only takes 15 min with the local bus to come to Dickwella Beach which is one of the best beaches in Sri Lanka.

Property is awesome and helpful staff room is clean and comfortable. Breakfast is tasty come together with fresh fruits. Dinner also Excellent. The villa silence at night and i have peaceful sleep. Beautiful and grennery garden where you can relax and enjoy the fresh air. A large bedroom with AC a good bathroom. Kitchen. Dining room. Blacony. They also have 2 bikes free of charge. You have 2 minutes to the supermarket 7 minutes waliking to the Talalla Beach. Feels just like home super comfortable! Absolutely recommended

Everything was perfect. Nathing to complain about

Serendip was our favourite hotel in Sri Lanka and we would recommend to anyone visiting! Nisha and Manju were wonderful hosts, always happy to help and very friendly. We felt so welcome from the moment we arrived until the moment Manju dropped us off at the bus station! The room was spotless with a nice bathroom and the bed was very comfortable. There were great facilities throughout the property, with lots of outdoor space for relaxing during the day and in the evening, including a hammock and a balcony. Serendip would also be great for a longer stay as there are kitchen and laundry facilities. The food was amazing, and we would definitely recommend having lunch/dinner during your stay, as the rice and curry is delicious. It is only a short walk down to Tallala beach, which is nice and peaceful, especially compared to some of the more popular tourist beaches nearby.

Lovely hosts and good AC in Bedroom, very tasty curry for dinner!

It was just a bit far from the beach - 15 min walk but if you’ve got a scooter then it’s perfect!

We had a great stay! The hosts were very kind and made us feel like home! The host picked us up from our previous accommodation and also gave us a small tour of the best spots at Talalla beach. The breakfast was also very nice!

Prasath was exceptionally friendly and helpful

It's a bit out the way from the beach and lots of local restaurants, so it's a benefit to have a scooter or use a tuk tuk at night time

We stayed for three nights in Serendip Villa Holiday home. The Hosts were very friendly and helpful. The breakfast and the dinner was delicious. The AC worked perfekt and the bathroom was clean and the shower was good.

Warm host and staff, clean and spacious property. Got a bunch of antiques and a small store of jewellery at discounted rates. The kitchen is well equipped and the breakfast was yummy.

This is a small homestay which is excellent value for money. Leisurely 10 minute walk to the beautiful unspoilt Talalla beach. Breakfast was good, we did have dinner (rice, curry and several vegetable dishes) here one night and it was excellent and exceptional value for money. Our host was friendly and helpful, he organised a taxi to Ella for us at a fair price with a very safe driver.

The room we booked was described as a villa, it was actually an ensuite room in the villa, not a self contained villa. We had access to a shared kitchen and a nice balcony.

The whole place is very peaceful and super clean. We were welcomed with a mice cool freshly squeezed juice and the ac was already on in the room, such a nice welcome. It’s a 10 min walk to Talalla beach, which is by far the quietest beach we have seen in Sri Lanka. Just 50 m outside the stay are two shops, one for fruits the other one like a mini super market, so you can buy all supplies if you would like to cook your own food. There is a kitchen with all essential tools, a fridge, microwave and a kettle. Our breakfast was included and it was good with toasted bread, a plate of fruits, fried eggs and tea (or coffee). Probably one of the nicest things in the property was the water cooler and guests are free to use it. They also have two bikes that are in good shape when compared to other ones we used in Sri Lanka. What’s more they didn’t charge for the use at all, so we biked to Hiriketiya beach and back. The hot shower is good with adjustable pressure if you would like to use it. The staff and the owners are super friendly and nice as well. Would definitely like to stay here again, for longer time. Feels just like home, super comfortable! Absolutely recommended!

Everything was perfect, nothing to complain about.

The place is nice and good. Their breakfast is good too. The room was clean and nice.

When we called the host he didn't get the phone. After one day of our stay, he canceled the booking. I don't why he do that. I asked him why is that but he didn't reply me. I'm not satisfied with his customer service. This is the first time I had this kind of experience.

Lovely room and sitting area. Excellent food.

It was a great beautiful and quiet place. So we stay at first floor, and we got bedroom, Shower room, kitchen and living room. So it's enough place. And it was clean. Breakfast was great, big tasty and super fruit. Personal was kind and helpful. And if I got one more chance, Prasath, thank you for all your help, for showing all beautiful place near to serendip (on Google map), for finding and buying all Sri Lankan fruit. We really test all fruit on Sri Lanka . Someday we will return.

Very clean place very beautiful garden the staff was very sweet and kind i got a really nice breakfast with great fresh fruits i also had dinner here rice and curry was especially good also talalla beach is gorgeous within 5 to 7 minute walk!!! Totally recommend this place. I wold definitely come Back

Clean room with balcony, excellent breakfast, friendly and helpful staff.

We have a different understanding of the term "villa". When I booked, hoped a large bedroom with a shower with hot water and a private kitchen. Reality - a very small room, shared kitchen and only cold water in the shower. As a result of negotiations, we were can use the hot water shower downstairs. I was a little disappointed...

We planned to only stay a few days but ended up spending a full week at Serendip because we liked it so much. The property is in a quiet, peaceful area and the staff were so friendly! Comfortable room with a/c, nice shared kitchen, delicious breakfasts, washing machine to do laundry. Plus it is within walking distance to Talalla beach which was one of the most beautiful, least crowded beaches we visited on the whole island.

Nothing! I recommend having a scooter or tuk-tuk to get around but I'm sure the staff would arrange transportation for you otherwise. They were really helpful!

It was very cleaned place. It have very beautiful garden view,very tasty breakfasts,and kindfull peoples

The staff was very sweet and kind we got a really nice breakfast with great fresh fruits. We also had dinner here, the rice and curry was especially good.

Came back to one of the best villas in Sri Lanka, and it was even better, it’s improving! I loved breakfasts, quiet days and nights and nature, and it’s also very close to the beach!

Everything’s good.

Great place, amazing manager who was so welcoming and attended to all my needs. Very clean and great kitchen. Nice garden and comfortable bed. Very beautiful traditional Sri Lanka house.

Could of had some comfortable chairs on the balcony.

I was at Serendip Villa for one month, this is a place for you if you want to be close to nature, have a quiet holiday (great for long-term as well!) and experience local culture, food and hospitality. Thanks to our hosts J. A. Saman and Manju I met a lot of locals, visited their homes, tried their food and was amazed by their goodwill. Our hosts are the best, they are the most kind, friendly, hospital and helpful people I met here! The place has a supermarket nearby, some local shops, bakery shops, a bank and a few restaurants within a 5 minute walk. Our hosts drove us to some local places close to nature to capture the greatest views I have ever witnessed. Also, a gorgeous beach is within 5-10 minute walk! Totally recommend this place, I would definitely come back, work online, eat delicious local food and enjoy a happy life in this Heaven on Earth!
