Villa Hundira

This was our second stay at Villa Hundira and hopefully not our last. The quality was as excellent as on our previous visit. Staff were incredible - nothing is too much trouble - and we were a bit of trouble - needing help to organise a Doctors visit, arranging dinner for a group of friends - all quickly and efficiently organised for us. We have recommended Villa Hundira to friends and they have been equally impressed. Beds are very comfortable, air conditioning was welcome in the May heat. Appealing artwork and fabric are used throughout. Pleasant places to sit and enjoy the view of the lagoon. As others have mentioned the shop is a great way to buy gifts and souvenirs made on site.

A great one-night first stop on our arrival before a busy two-week tour of Sri Lanka. The rooms were immense and could have slept a rugby team! Charming staff and lovely terrace watching the sun set over the lagoon and the flying foxes gathering in the trees. Food a bit hit-and-miss but cocktails by the pool were delicious.

9 of us were there for 4 nights. Loved the ambience, and rooms were spacious. Amenity space like pool and upper deck were really excellent. Beds were 3*, a bit hard. Appetizers and desert were good, any red meat mains were a bit undercooked and fatty. Fish was EXCELLENT. (order the fish!!). 12 min drive to fish market, 12 min WALK to the ocean. Bartenders very able to deliver whatever you ask.

Our first night after getting off our flight, but this charming hotel by the lagoon is much more than an airport stopover. We enjoyed excellent food, a large spotless room, a swim in one of its two pools and a relaxing neck and shoulder massage. A really fine start to our two weeks in Sri Lanka. Would highly recommend.

Our first night in Sri Lanka and we were so looking forward to catching up on our sleep and acclimatising ourselves. The hotel is on the shores of Negombo Lagoon. We had a lovely big room on the first floor - NB no lift but not a problem as our cases were taken to the room. We had a good freshly prepared meal in the evening which was generous and tasty. A good nights sleep and we were refreshed and ready to start our holiday in this beautiful country.

Ein toller Ort, um auf Sri Lanka anzukommen. Wir wurden herzlich empfangen und konnten herrlich entspannen, Das Hotel ist klein und gemütlich, vor allem aber sind die Mitarbeiterinnen und Mitarbeiter ungeheuer freundlich. Die Anlage wirkt etwas verwinkelt, aber so hat man überall kleine Rückzugsmöglichkeiten und Privatsphäre. Das fanden wir ganz toll. Das Essen ist toll, der Service ist großartig!
