Южная провинция: аренда земляных домов

Such a special and memorable place. I will remember the sounds of the jungle at night most of all! We did the river excursions, floating breakfast and elephant safari all of which were amazing. Delicious food too!

Only stayed one night at Sandun's place, but a fabulous stay. Went on a great safari tour organized my the host, just a few minutes after checking it. The safari was fantastic with a guide who really knows his stuff, with a keen eye, he kept spotting the animals, that would otherwise not been noticed. After the tour we had a great srilankan dinner at the stay, and then again breakfast in the morning. Delicious!! Highly recommend!!

We thoroughly enjoyed staying here and my daughters were excited to have their own little house! It was well set up with a restaurant across the road for breakfast, lunch or dinner, and also packed breakfast for the safari if needed. The hosts were very friendly and showed us lots of birds and animals in the lush garden. They also shared badminton nets and cricket bats for our daughters to play and put up big hammocks to relax in. They were able to arrange everything such as the safari tour, a trip to the local Buddhist temple and to see a colony of fruit bats, and a car to our next destination. I’d recommend going for the 6 hour safari as you can go a bit further into the park and not be around as many jeeps. We saw elephants, mongoose, monitor lizards, the giant Sri Lankan squirrel, crocodiles, wallowing buffalo and 20+ kinds of birds. Recommended as a place to stay near the safari park entrance.

The perfect escape to immerse yourself in nature and tune-in to your surroundings. Everything was so thoughtfully crafted so as to blend in with the natural surroundings. Walking through the veg garden to the pool and restaurant area under the stars was beautiful. The pool stretching out over the wild shrubland, the edge of the lagoon just visible. The room was beautiful, I loved how simple yet luxurious it felt. The raw concrete, natural walls and beautiful Thale leaf roof. The ceramic water jug and cups were beautiful and I love that there was a candle provided (loved reading in the evenings by candle-light to the sound of birds!). I can't thank Chandara and Vasantu enough for making my stay so easy and for making me feel right at home. They were so considerate and open to sharing all their knowledge of the area and plants that were growing in the garden. The food was unbelievably good too! Will hopefully be back for more cuddles with Sulu and Suli soon!

Une expérience unique à vivre sans hésitation. Des hôtes formidables qui feront tout pour rendre votre séjour inoubliable. Des plats cuisinés avec attention et qui vous feront découvrir les vraies saveurs sri-lankaises ! Des couchés et levés de soleil incroyables. Et un safari inoubliable ! Réserver le sans hésitations, et ne vous laissez pas influencer par les locaux ou votre driver, car ce lieu est magique ! Je me suis même réconciliée avec les araignées faucheuses et les grenouilles, devant cohabiter lors des passages à la douche et au sanitaire ! Mais quelle expérience, allez y, vous ne le regrettez point ! Merci encore à Nigel, Nihal et Sashi!

We absolutely loved our stay at villa rock, this is such a hidden gem! After the weekend we feel recharged and reconnected with nature. The hosts Thilina and Jack were so lovely, welcoming and on hand if we needed anything. It was great to hear their story of how they build the mud hut in Covid times with their own hands. It’s all self sustaining with the natural pool filled by a well which feeds into the garden, creating its own mini ecosystem which felt so magical to be a part of for the weekend. We felt like we had a little oasis in the jungle! The house has a little en suite bathroom and shower, a live roof and a basic kitchen with a hob, some pots and utensils which allowed us to make meals. There is a supermarket 20 minutes walk away and a bus stop right outside that making it easy to get back to Kalutara train station. Would recommend this to anyone who loves camping, nature and wants to unwind and recharge!

Een bijzonder en afgelegen huisje. De tuin en natuur eromheen in combinatie met het kleine zwembad maakte het een fijn verblijf. Het huisje ziet er bijzonder uit en is prachtig ingericht. De host is erg vriendelijk en voor een kleine prijs maakt hij samen met zijn moeder een zeer uitgebreid en lekker Sri Lankaanse ontbijt voor je klaar. Omdat het zo afgelegen ligt zijn er weinig restaurants in de omgeving beschikbaar, maar konden we op advies van de host, eten laten bezorgen bij het verblijf. Wel misten we iets van een grotere tafel om van te kunnen eten en een lekker zitje buiten.

I absolutely loved staying in this place. I ended up not wanting to leave Talalla, the family was so very welcoming and helpful. The local people are so nice and the beach is the most beautiful in Sri Lanka so far. The mud hut is totally authentic and super cute. Everything you need in the little kitchen. The beds are so comfortable and with a little reading light that gives off a relaxing light. Amazing Wi-Fi so I could contribute i a full day online meeting! A total hit this place - I can’t believe it isn’t fully booked at all times. Right next to the Talalla Resort that will let you partake in yoga if you do 5class pass. Amazing place truly.
