Holiday rentals with outdoor seating in Balapitiya

Many thanks to Thanuja and her family for their hospitality and great home. The house is beautiful, the location is excellent, close to shops, cafes, beach, surfing. The house has everything you need, a kitchen, a bedroom with a large bed, a workplace, fast Internet, air conditioning, a beautiful backyard. The hosts treated us to local food, it was very tasty. This is a great option for a long stay.

"Nice place to stay! The host is very polite and friendly, always ready to help. The view from the balcony is absolutely stunning, especially at sunset. The photos fully match reality, which was a pleasant surprise. It's only a 5-minute ride on a scooter to the center and the beach — the location is excellent. The only small downside is the lack of a full kitchen, as there’s just a stove and a sink on the balcony, but it's enough for simple breakfasts and dinners. Overall, I really enjoyed my stay and highly recommend this place!"

Lovely place with everything you need including a gas hob. Very helpful host who was keeping in touch on regular basis. Place is located only a short walk to the main street and the beach, yet is very peaceful. Chathura is very helpful and will do anything to make sure you are happy. We needed a taxi to the airport and he has arranged us a very good airport transfer for a better price then pick me or Uber. Definitely would stay again.

A beautiful well maintained villa right next to the beach. The owner Tharushi is very nice and helpful.

Beautiful big villa just outside Galle fort. 5 mins by tuktuk. Spacious bedrooms and a large pool. Excellent food too. We were very well looked after. The house is on a quiet street with not much within walking distance so need to tuktuk everywhere.

Beautiful property with a big pool and a great bar area. The comfy bedrooms made for a wonderful night's sleep. Dilan and his family were incredibly kind and hospitable, always ensuring we were comfortable. He provided great recommendations for restaurants and things to do and see in the area. We only stayed one night and wished we had stayed longer. Highly recommend! We will definitely return.

stunning villa and very relaxing! everything was perfect and the staff were amazing as well... will def come back! thabk u!

We had a wonderful stay at Cecilia’s place. The house is just as described, literally right on the beach with the picturesque Indian Ocean right at the back door of the house. We were well looked after by Sasha and Praboth and had delicious meals. Would definitely stay again.

We had wonderful 11 nights at this place. We wanted to feel like at our home, feel how locals live and that"s the what we've got. There is no AC (as advertised in the ad), but it was not a problem. The fan above the bed does it's work perfectly. The open kitchen is amazing and you can make what ever you want. There is everything, including the blender (which is significant, considering the abundance of fresh tropical fruits everywhere). There was almost no mosqitoes in beautiful garden. Also, lot of local animals and a pretty friendly monkey. There were some shortages of water, but it was not a serious problem. Raju was a great host and we will surely come again.

Ruwan is a very dear person who goes out of her way to make sure you don't miss anything. The place looked exactly like the pictures. Everything was very clean. There was a fridge full of free water. Breakfast times were by arrangement, which we found very pleasant. Breakfast could have varied a bit more (there was the same thing every day). Ruwan organized transportation to the next accommodation at the Uber price. And the driver was also very nice. We took a trip to the turtles and Galle along with Ruwan, which I had honestly imagined a little differently. I thought he was like a tourist guide who also gives us information, but he just drove us. I found the price to be a bit too high for that. But it was still very nice and a good idea. We do not regret having spent 4 nights at Ruwan's and can recommend it with a clear conscience. I'd love to go there again.

I’m a single woman traveling alone from the U.S. and from the first moment meeting the hosts, I felt like I was part of this beautiful family. I have friends forever here! So warm and welcoming and accommodating. What a beautiful example of Sri Lankan hospitality. The hostess is always eager to cook you a delicious Sri Lankan meal. They put in so much effort to make sure that I was comfortable and had everything I need. Excellent all around! Incredible value, excellent Wi-Fi, beautiful home, quick access to Hikkaduwa beach. The host has also been my personal tour guide of the area, which has a lot to see and experience. In particular the tsunami of 2004 was quite devastating to this area, and there are many memorials that are heart-opening. This family even rented a car and drove me eight hours to the center of the island where we spent the night together experiencing other sites! Incredible! I would highly recommend this home for anyone wanting to have a unique, personal experience!

The villa matches the description exactly. The owner of the villa and his family are incredibly helpful and polite people. We are glad that we stopped with them. Our stay was completed with all amenities and comfort.

We had an excellent stay at this apartment and appreciated all the thoughtful details. Communication with Dakshan was smooth and supportive from start to finish - he was very helpful, always quick to respond, and offered great assistance whenever we had questions or needed guidance. The apartment itself was in top-notch condition, featuring powerful air conditioning, fast internet, and a fully equipped kitchen that made cooking easy. The spacious layout and separate showers in each room gave everyone plenty of privacy and comfort. Everything was spotlessly clean, and the modern yet cosy feel instantly made us feel at home. Overall, it was a fantastic experience, and we’d gladly stay here again.

Our stay at Pramod's place with my family was fantastic! He is truly an incredible host, always attentive to our needs and ready to help with anything we required. His kindness and generosity exceeded all expectations, from assisting with our late check-in due to a delayed flight to helping us organize various trips around the area. The apartment is fantastic, always clean and located in a convenient area for any interest. I highly recommend staying with him so an unique experience !

By far the best place we stayed in! Beautiful and big room, with a super nice bathroom, kitchen and balcony. Everything was super clean and Amila and Hannah were super friendly and helpful! The whole pool area is just amazing. We can only recommend staying here!

This place was so beautiful, we had the perfect stay. The owner Nuwan was lovely and extremely helpful, they also provided with a scooter which was so great for getting around. The Airbnb had two double beds, the one we stayed in was comfortable and the air conditioning worked perfectly. A great stay and I would highly recommend for anyone coming to Sri Lanka.

Amazing apartment! So close to galle so easy to go for dinner. Nice restaurant/ beach club within walking distance. Aircon was a lovely. plus restaurant was a nice addition for easy lunches/ dinner!

We were really happy to stay here - felt like a home in another country. Appreciated the own outdoor kitchen & laundry machine. The area was quiet, peacefull & mostly local. It is easy to move around - also to local markets & supermarket & fishmarket. The Host are very polite and they have their own small shop where you can buy for example all the drinking water & eggs. The apartment itself is spacious. It was also easy to organize a bike from nearby & store it at the yard. You can easily live here in the rhytm of the nature and hear also the nearby temple/monestry monks singing every morning & evening. It was convienent to get to all the nearby activities like yoga, restaurants etc with a bike in a couple of minutes. In over all it was a peacefull home not too far from anything and we were especially happy not to have loud overnight parties or traffic noises at night around. Blissfull, great value for the money & highly recommended!🫶🏻

I stayed in the guest cottage on a lovely private (gated) property full of jungly trees, birds, and monkeys! Eva has built a paradise. It was wonderful to walk down to yoga a few times. Overall it's exceptionally clean, comfortable and quiet (except for all the bird chatter, but that was lovely). Also the staff are so lovely and helpful and smiling. Just a reminder that there's no AC, and you are in the jungle so be obsessively clean in the kitchen (hello ants) and don't let the little lizards scare you. I named one Fred. :). If the wifi doesn't work, just find the wifi repeater and ensure it's plugged in, and ta da, the signal perks right up. Highly recommend.

This is our 2nd stay at Sha Villas by Ushaan. Overall, Five-star host and a brilliant apartment! Check in and check out is super easy, and Ushaan is a very communicative and thoughtful host. It is a beautiful , spacious place with great amenities. Immaculately clean and a very convenient location. We would book again for our next visit.

Very spacious and clean apartment. Everything was fine, thank you

delightful apartment! very clean, light and cozy. There are all the dishes in the kitchen, coffee maker, good fridge, toaster and microwave, there is a cooler, drinking water can be bought in a large bottle on the ground floor Perfectly clean rooms, all surfaces are dust-free. Weekly cleaning deserves a separate description - so thorough and accurate. The host of the apartment gives very detailed clear check-in instructions and is always available, goes to a meeting for all questions. The complex has a swimming pool(110 cm deep) and a good basic gym. We stayed here for 1 week and ended up extending our stay for a month.
