Coconut Grove villa w cook pool

Stayed with my adult children and their partners so the 4 generous bedrooms all with ensuites was perfect. Private on your own half acre with a terrific pool yet still walking distance to town & beach, a beautiful old home. Staff that look after you and the property are wonder people and nothing is too much trouble, lovely breakfast provided each morning.

Everything

We had a truly wonderful stay at Coconut Grove. It’s an amazing, beautifully preserved colonial villa with four spacious rooms, each thoughtfully designed. The outdoor bathrooms are such a unique touch — showering under the open sky while soaking in some natural sunshine was a fantastic experience. The pool is large, crystal clear, and extremely well maintained. The lush green lawns add to the peaceful and relaxing vibe of the property. The home-style food was delicious and comforting, making us feel completely at ease. What really makes Coconut Grove special is its perfect location — very private and serene, yet just a 7–8 minute walk to the beach and only 3–4 minutes from cafés and restaurants. We were there on a boys’ trip this time, but it’s definitely a place we’d love to come back to with our families as well. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a peaceful yet well-connected getaway.

Whole villa surrounded by lovely greeneries. Western style with wooden touches that makes it very warm. Recently renovated. Equipped with a kitchen, linens, outdoor poolside seating, bed canopies and even mosquito repellent. Villa staff served us at their best, offering some very delicious and authentic local dishes. Breakfast is inclusive, but other meals come with additional cost. Villa attendant, Nimali, was very helpful too and very responsive.

The breakfast was great. Kumudha made us different Sri Lankan dishes every day. The fruit platter, pancakes and curd and treacle were fresh and delicious

Everyone was so kind especially to our two young kids and the food was so delicious and the pool so serene with monkeys playing in the trees and beautiful birds to watch! What an incredible place!

We visited Coconut Grove for a family trip and will cherish the memories we made there forever. This property is stunning, with a cozy, home-like atmosphere. Kumudu and Pradeep are warm & kind people who provided us with exceptional service & made us delicious food. Three of the four bathrooms feature an open outdoor style shower & all the bedrooms have mosquito nets, which made sleeping ultra comfortable. The property is impeccably maintained, and the pool is spotless. I highly recommend this property for groups of up to 8 people.

This property is absolutely gorgeous and has a warm home feel to it. The support staff - Kumudu and Pradeep - do a fantastic job to meet all our needs. The food was delicious and left us wanting more! The beds are very comfortable. 3 out of 4 bathrooms have an open air part which is an amazing feel! The property itself is maintained very well and the pool is clean. I would definitely recommend this property for upto 8 people to stay at.

1. This is going to seem a strange Indian request, but there were no health faucets in any of the bathrooms. It was surprising because Sri Lanka as a country uses health faucets over TP. I would definitely ask to include a health faucet in every bathroom. 2. While the property is green and gorgeous, the mosquitoes and flies become a real handful, especially after sunset. I would suggest you include some plants like Citronella in the garden to keep the mosquitoes away.
