“The staff were amazing! They could not have been more helpful or polite. We had a wonderful stay and would not hesitate”

A beautifully maintained property with stunning swimming pool, extensive grounds and lovely gardens. The food and service provided by every staff member was outstanding!

“As a last stop in Sri Lanka we found Club Villa to be the perfect spot. Villages close &easy accessibility to other”

The gardens were exceptionally well kept. The staff were always polite & charming. Always helpful & would do everything with grace & a genuine desire to please. I couldn’t have been more delighted.

“Tranquil and beautiful”

Set in beautiful and beautifully maintained grounds, Club Villa is a charming and comfortable place to stay. Designed by famous architect Geoffrey Bawa, the property remains true to his ideals of natural materials used simply to complement nature and include Sri Lankan culture inside and out. The staff are fantastic: very friendly and offer superb service. The food at the restaurant was excellent, so much so that we barely ventured further in the five glorious nights we stayed there.

“Vintage Villa with great garden”

The Villa has a vintage feeling and the garden is incredibly well kept. Location is great, 2 minutes from the beach. It felt like having a private resort for ourselves. Staff was really friendly and accomodating.

“Perfect vacation”

We had a perfect stay! Location, room, breakfast, pool, staff, everything was really great! This is one of the few places that I would like to go back!

nice architecture beautifull garden. beach nearby. good location

“Lovely peaceful, comfortable and relaxing hotel with lovely pool, right on the beach. Good food and great staff.”

We have stayed at Club Villa before and it is a delight. Set in beautiful gardens right next to the beach with lovely comfortable rooms, great beds, really friendly and helpful staff, good food and really relaxing peaceful too. A real haven to come back to after a day out. Love the fact that the trains go right through the garden and it’s fun to wander down the railway track to other bars and beaches. Set down a quiet lane, It’s easy to get tuk-tuks right outside the door.

“very luxurious stay”

Access to fabulous beach, such a well maintained property, staff were very helpful, food was glorious

“An idyllic place to stay. We would definitely recommend a stay here and, if we ever return to Sri Lanka, would love to g”

The hotel and grounds were so beautiful. The pool was great and the staff were amazing. They happily moved Sun loungers into the shade under the trees for us. We enjoyed watching the trains come past and they didn’t keep us awake. Our room was spacious with a very comfortable bed and the best shower we’ve ever had. The food in the restaurant was excellent, we enjoyed every meal we had.

“Living like Geoffrey Bawa”

Amazing. Awesome. Beautiful. Laid back. Upon arrival we felt like set back in time. Picturesque scenery opened to us from our balcony view to the pool on the left, the beach in front, walking over the rails of the still going railway of Sri Lanka, and to our right side squirrels, parrots and birds of all colours on trees as old as the building and a perfect shaped cultivated lawn. Feeling like early 1900 in time when Europeans still tried to conquer this part of the world instead of enjoying it, like I do nowadays, eating like a goddess in France, still sitting at one of the most beautiful beach stretches Sri Lanka has to offer. In walking distance of the town called Bentota, one of the prettier ones. Geoffrey Bawa, the architect of this 18 room (including 7 Suites) house knew about aesthetic, Bohemian, Hedonistic lifestyle. I admit it saddens me not being able to share a cup of tea with good old Geoffrey because he lived from 1919 until 2003. Only the good ones..... Don't miss to walk and sleep in the walls created by a genius mind. Maybe the spirit will hop to you. Who knows it might blow your mind or lighten it up? Dare to take the risk? Guess you can only win, nothing to loose.

So peaceful and wonderful staff
