Our stay at swallow villa was incredible. Conveniently located in central Ahangama near gas stations break but a step back from the main road so that you find yourself in a peaceful, quiet sanctuary. Spend mornings by the pool watching monkeys and peacocks enjoy the surrounding trees. Tori is the kindest, most accomodating host who thinks of everything, has lots of recommendations for the area and goes above and beyond for her guests. Very grateful for our stay and can’t wait to be back.

We loved everything! Rooms are so pretty, are cleaned everyday with fresh towels. They also do your laundry which is a big plus especially because Ahangama was one of our last stops. It is close to a lot of restaurants and bars but still nice and quiet as it is tucked away. This is our favorite accomodation during our whole trip

“We will stay here again, if we ever visit Ahangama again”
This lovely guesthouse is only a five-minute stroll from the city centre. Our lovely host, Tori, was so helpful, giving us all the info we needed for our stay and activities, and even booking taxis for our airport trip. We had such a good time that we decided to stay an extra night!

“Spot in paradise”
We absolutely loved our stay. Tori is an angel and so lovely to have chats with, she'll make you feel at home straight away 🤍 The room was spacious, cosy, beautifully decorated and clean. The pool was a delight to jump in after a busy day out and about. There is also filtered water to use, so no need for plastic. Tori sent us a list of 'on point' restaurant recommendations, and we did a great job of trying to tick them all off 😆. We enjoyed our massage at Wild Spa, definitely try to get there. We 100% recommend booking Swallow Villa, and hope to visit again.

“You won't find a property with more soul, character, and comfort!”
The property is absolutely gorgeously designed and has all the creature comforts one would need. It is situated just off the main road and close to lots of eateries, cafes, and beaches. Tori was immensely friendly and helpful, and gave us stellar recommendations.

“A hidden gem in Ahangama”
We loved the style of the villa and the rooms - so beautifully decorated. We had everything we needed in the room, from natural mosquito repellent, to shampoo/ conditioner and even bathrobes. The hotel manager was super helpful and went out of her way to make us feel at home. The location is great, just tucked away off the main road so it’s nice and peaceful. We loved the pool area too. Thank you so much.

“A Villa worth staying at !”
Absolutely everything! My husband and I stayed here to celebrate our 1st wedding anniversary and we couldn't have asked for more ! Let's start with the room. Location in a lane from the main road traffic this place is perfect as its right in the centre of Ahangama and all its beach bars, restaurants and excitement and yet it is peaceful and calm. The property is beautiful and the room was lovely, big and clean. The pictures do not do it justice. It's better than it looks and was super comfortable. The best part of this experience was Tori though. From the minute I booked the place to the time I reached she had been on point with coordination. On reaching Swallow Villa we were greeted with such a warm hug and hospitality. Tori was kind enough to provide a detailed itinerary for Ahangama like what to do, best food, best bars, and even the non touristy stuff. Even numbers of trusted tuk tuk riders who btw were also lovely people. Such hospitality and warmth make up your experiences and make your stay worthwhile. Thank you Tori and the entire team of Swallow Villa for such a fantastic stay ! Hope to come back soon! :)

“A wonderful, stylish and peaceful retreat with a great host.”
A lovely place to stay with a great bedroom, a large upper terrace, and a spacious communal lounge set in a nice garden with a small pool. Our host couldn't have been more helpful, especially when I had a problem with my daughter's accommodation elsewhere and she very kindly helped us out. Highly recommended for a peaceful and comfortable stay in a very busy seaside area - the property was just enough away from the busy main street but close to lots of eating places.

Perfectly located close to the main road in Ahangama, yet very quiet. It was the perfect first stop for us in Sri Lanka. Tori had the best recommendations and is the sweetest soul you can imagine. If you’re going to Ahangama, this is the place to stay!

“Absolutely amazing stay!”
The design of the villa and the room is very stylish. The location is perfect, in walking distance to most of the restaurants and bars. Very friendly and proactive host, Tori provided a bunch of recommendations and help whenever we needed it and made us feel right at home from the very first second.

“A gorgeous oasis of calm and comfort in Ahangama”
We really appreciated the little oasis of calm in a private secure garden setting away from the road noise. The apartment we stayed in was spacious, immaculately clean, well equipped and very comfortable. We loved the plunge pool and loungers in the beautifully manicure gardens x

Our stay at Swallow Villa was absolutely perfect! Tori went above and beyond to ensure we felt welcome and comfortable, and gave us many recommendations for local attractions as well as helping us with arrangements. The property was spotless, well-equipped, and located in a beautiful setting. We couldn't have asked for a better host or a better stay—10/10 would highly recommend!"
