Reviews
EXCELLENT Based on 39 reviews Nicole S2024-12-28Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Lovely place. We spent 4 nights here and it was really nice, comfortable and cosy. The breakfast prepared by Nisha was very tasty, she took great care of us as we have a gluten free and lactose free diet. She has a beautiful energy, very warm and kind and helped us find transport to Ella. The location was perfect for us as we wanted to be away from tourists and the beach is easily accessible. Definitely recommend it! Jana Elias2024-12-01Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Stayed for 8 days in November and I would very much recommend. A wonderful daily breakfast is included, a washer with dry racks and access to a shared kitchen. Staff (Nisha) were fantastic and always tried to make sure you are having a great stay. Shower and bathroom seem new with great water pressure. AC works really well. Bed is so comfortable and has a mosquito net. There was a closet and a rack clothes. The kitchen has most everything you need and there's a few grocery stores a quick tuk tuk away. I've stayed in many such accommodations in Sri Lanka and this was one of my favourite. Neighbourhood can get a bit noisy, but nothing terrible. Theres a nice little balcony to sit out and a kitchen table to use. If you have the apartment you have a big den with seating as well. Great wifi! Gorge Willem2024-10-17Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. 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 nandika ruwan2024-10-13Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Good place. Manon Fouque2024-05-04Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Une excellente adresse que je recommande! Notre hôte a tout fait pour nous faire plaisir, très gentil et souriant, il se fait un plaisir d'aider les clients pour tous leurs besoins. Avec son propre tuktuk il nous a mené sur 3 endroits differents pour trouver la plage ideale sans vague pour notre bébé, il nous a préparé des délicieux breakfast, et diners, pour finir j'ai même eu droit à une leçon de cuisine made in sri lanka! Il fait tout pour que l'on se sente comme dans notre maison. Un grand merci pour votre accueil, nous reviendrons! 😊 Altay Ozcan2024-02-12Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. 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. There is even a yoga mat and we had our laundry done. 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! zhouyi chen2024-01-18Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Spent such a nice trip here, the host was so warm and the room is clean , close to the beach, thanks for everything!
EXCELLENT Based on 67 reviews Sean2025-01-0110Verified Exceptional ☺ It was clean and quiet. Breakfast was good and the host was lovely. Vincent2024-12-2610Verified Exceptional Tia2024-12-1410Verified Lovely and well equipped for a long or short term stay ☺ 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 Weronika2024-12-1410Verified Exceptional ☺ 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! Ievgeniia2024-12-0410Verified ☺Eine grosse Villa mit mehreren vermuteten Zimmern mit einer gemeinsamen Küche. Jedes Zimmer hat ein eigenes Bad. Das Bett war bequem und Bettwäsche sauber. Das Zimmer könnte etwas größer sein, aber der Essraum und die Küche verfeinern diesen kleinen Nachteil. AC funktioniert einwandfrei (bei der Hälfte unserer Zimmern war es nicht so der Fall). Das Bad verfügt über das heiße Wasser und es gibt keine Beschwerden bezüglich des Bades. Man bekommt ausreichend Platz. Die Küche erlaubt Zubereitung von eigenem Essen und, wenn man Glück hat, wird man aus der Küche die dich anstarrenden Affen anstarren können. Das Frühstück ist in Ordnung, aber nicht hervorragend (hatten wir bei unseren Aufenthalten schon besser gehabt). Aber auf jeden Fall nicht schlecht. Es gibt ausserdem eine Waschmaschine, die auch genutzt werden kann. Jana2024-12-019.0Verified Highly recommend, will stay again! ☺ 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 😂 Derek2024-11-2110Verified Super Stay ☺ Clean Villa With Nice Garden Good Breakfast Good Staff. Nice Beach Talalla ☹ Great Karishma2024-11-179.0Verified Thank you Serendip for a lovely stay! ☺ 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! Kayleigh2024-10-2810Verified Really enjoyed our stay at Serendip villa ☺ 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 Andrea2024-10-2210Verified Perfekt ! ☺Serendip Villa ist ein Wohlfühlort ! Eine sehr angenehme, gepflegte Atmosphäre, sehr gutes Frühstück ,ein schönes Zimmer,sowie ein Gemeinschaftsbereich, in dem man sich aufhalten kann, sowie Balkon und Frühstücksbereich sorgen dafür, dass man gerne in SerendipVilla wohnt. Zudem sauber und ruhig. Solide und sicher gebaut ! Der Supermarkt ist 2 Min entfernt, die Bushaltestelle 7Min, ein kleines Restaurant mit gutem Bäcker 9Min . Den wunderbaren Strand von Talalla erreicht man in 11Min zu Fuß. Ich hatte einen wunderschönen Aufenthalt!Verified by TrustindexTrustindex verified badge is the Universal Symbol of Trust.

EXCELLENT Based on 11 reviews Harvey2024-11-10Verified ended up staying an extra week. very helpful Harvey2024-11-03Verified No compliant, easy checkin, very clean and close to the beach and eateries. Definitely recommend Julia2024-06-30Verified We had a really good time. Breakfast was included in the price and we even had air conditioning. It was a 10 minutes walk to Talalla beach, a really beautiful yet uncrowded beach.We recommend the accomodation! Sophie2024-04-15Verified I stayed at Serendip Villa for two months whilst working nearby and from the moment I arrived I felt right at home. Prasath was the most helpful host, always wanting to help and very easy to contact at all times. He always made sure I had everything I needed. A special shout out to Nisha - she is a beautiful lady who always left my room spotless, cooked me breakfast daily and sorted my laundry for me when I had been working long hours. Would definitely stay again, thank you ☺️ Rosie2024-01-02Verified Perfect place for long term stays. I was here for 3 months and it felt like home. Nisha made lovely breakfasts for me each morning and cleaned my room every few days. Kitchen is basic but has everything you need. Villa manager very quickly sorted me with a bike and any help I needed. The roof does need some attention due to a few leaks. Overall a lovely place to stay and I cant recommend it enough! Thank you. Mario2023-03-23Verified The Serendip Villa is in a very calm and relaxing neighborhood were you feel instantly at home. There are barely any other tourists and all the local people are very open and helpful. The beach isn’t far at all and the most beautiful, empty beach we’ve found on Sri Lanka so far. The Villa manager J A Saman has been extremely nice and helpful. He helped us get a scooter quickly and for a fair price. Furthermore, he has cooked breakfast and an outstanding good dinner for us. He sees after you and makes you feel taken care of! All in all very lovely and we highly recommend! Danila2023-03-03Verified I was at Serendip Villa for one month, and it was the best traveling experience for me, and of the best months of my life. Serendip Villa 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 and bakery shops, a bank and a few restaurants within a 5 minute walk. Pharmacy is quite far, but our hosts drove me and my roommate there, so it was no problem. And they drove us to some local places close to nature to capture the greatest views I have ever witnessed.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! Danya2023-01-24Verified C’était un séjour très agréable. L’emplacement ideal, chambre propre. Les repas délicieux. Saman et Saman sont très attentionnés. Saman était très attentifs, généreux. On recommande ce logement. Slavomir2022-07-26Verified How to start? For sure worth for it. Really great place. I stayed there for 9 nights. Do not expect something luxury. Clean room, stunning breakfast and nice balcony where you can get your beers at the evening. And the best manager all over the Sri Lanka Samad. He will help you with everything and he is super kind. Around 10minutes by walk from the beach(also they can rent you a bike). But I prefered to walk. In this village you can met kindest people in the world. If you are reading this and booked accomodation, ask manager for contact to Colin. Tell him “Slavo from Slovakia” send you. He will show you places can arrange lobster for cheapest price and cook it for you and more. Defenetly you should try this place. Pauline2022-03-09Verified Very good place for solo travel. Beautiful ensuite room and large breakfast. Mr Salam is very helpful and will take you on the bike to the beach and show you places. Its only 10 minutes walk from the beach. But secure place. You can see many beautiful birds in the neighbourhood and also monkeys in the fruit trees. The locals smile and say hello.
