Renta de alojamientos vacacionales frente a la playa en Colombo 05

I booked the home for 6 adults and 2 kids, and we had a wonderful 5 day stay. We spent our days swimming in the pool (long enough for laps!); lounging by the pool drinking tea or reading or playing board games; indulging in the most delicious meals cooked by Manjula; listening to the waves crash on the beach that’s a small coconut grove away; or taking naps in the comfortable beds in our airy bedrooms, which were beautifully decorated. Evocative of the Geoffrey Bawa style (a Murad Ismail masterpiece), this style of home may be the best way to enjoy all that Sri Lanka offers. The garden is beautiful. We rarely saw any mosquitos (I still sprayed my kids), despite us spending most of our time in the open veranda/lounge by the pool. Manjula is an excellent chef and cooked a bday lunch for 20. All of my Sri Lankan relatives - the toughest food critics of all - loved his food. Crab curry, hoppers, kotthu roti, chicken curry done 3 ways, butter cake, we had it all! We hope to be back!

This is a beautiful spacious property in a fabulous location with a sea view to die for. We were a little concerned as not many reviews, but this is often let as 2 homes together. Alexander was swift to respond and communicate this to us. Sam was always responsive and Dinesh was always on hand to look after us. The dogs are very friendly and absolutely no trouble at all. We already love this area in Sri Lanka, and loved it even more staying here.

Excellent stay, staff are amazing, thank you.

appartement très propre et bien équipé... à l'étage d'une famille vivant en dessous très gentils et discrets et présents si besoin... une climatisation unique dans la chambre qui est payante et n'est pas signalée comme telle. très proche du grand traffic de la ville et de la mer, mais suffisamment en retrait pour dormir correctement !!

Absolutely picture perfect. The villa was beautifully decorated and well-maintained. specially the bathrooms, the garden and the terrace (the best part of the villa). The host, Dharshana is truly awesome. He is such an amazing human being. We would love to visit again! Thank you so much for having us. ❤️

We spent a night and a half here. Very flexible check in as we arrived at 4 in the morning. Very children-friendly place.

Dom Prashanth był wyjątkowo czysty i ładnie urządzony. Widać bardzo dużą dbałość o dom. Położenie miejsca na mapie dawało nadzieję na bliskość plaży . Trzeba mieć świadomość , że dom nie posiada parkingu. Również wyposażenie kuchni jest pozbawione gazu. Jest mikrofala i czajnik. W niedalekiej okolicy można znaleźć lokalne knajpki. Komunikacja z gospodarzem była bardzo szybka i łatwa. Dziękuję bardzo miłym gospodarzom Prashanth i jego żonie za możliwość spędzenia kilku dni w ich ładnym domu.

Afran is very nice and also answered fast and also called us upfront to say hi and to know eachother upfront. The appartment is very nice with all you need for a good stay. Aircon in all rooms, VERY good beds! Nice view, full kitchen with all you need. This is the best appartment we had in Sri Lanka and we have been there many times. I can highly recommend this apartment and Afran as host. Internet is also perfect speed. It was great 14 days in Mount Lavinia. Few meter from the beach with good restaurants. Everything was just perfect and we will for sure be back and rent from Afran!

Our family group of 5 adults stayed at ‘Home within a City’ from the 6th Jan to 11th 2018. Our hosts Mihiri and Kapila were on hand to greet us when we arrived, and took us through all the formalities. The apartment was exactly as described, well laid out, and equipped with everything one could require on holiday. The excellent location gave us plenty of choice to eat and drink outside. The building had 24hr security and was well maintained. Boswell Residences was a short walk from Wellawatte train station (10 minutes into the Fort), and 5 minutes up to Galle Road from where you could catch a local bus into most places in town. Best was the pickme app with which you could summon a small car that was as cheap as the ubiquitous tuk-tuk, and airconditioned. The Majestic Mall, less than 3km/10min ride away cost me Rupees150. (Always take a metered tuk-tuk). Everyone in our group were unanimous – this is an apartment that we would gladly return to. Thank You Mihiri & Kapila for being attentive and gracious hosts. We enjoyed every minute of our stay and would hope to return again.

We stayed at this place for over two weeks. Host Sudaththa and the manager Lakshanee were responsive and ready to help. Our flight arrived after midnight and the drive from airport was slow due to heavy rain. Lakshanee waited for us to let us in and introduce the facilities. They were also happy to accommodate our request to get some groceries for our immediate needs. The pool on the roof is small but very clean and is set in nice surroundings (can see the ocean from the rooftop). A/c units and fans kept us cool and the generator on standby meant there was no power interruption for more than a few seconds. The security guards were alert even after 19 pm and opened the gate for us when we were a little late to get back. Overall the experience was better than anticipated. The kitchen utensil range is limited but if we had asked I believe what we needed would have been provided. We did not because we only needed to make breakfast and tea there.

very well furnished apartment and awesome rooms. good for families and also anyone looking for place near sea side.

Awfar’s condo is new, modern and very clean. It had all of the amenities that we needed. Awfar and the property manager were very friendly, responsive and accommodating! I would definitely recommend this property for your next stay!

Johnny was an excellent host and a great partner during my stay. I first reached out to him via phone, and he was incredibly kind and responsive. Thanks to the building’s security guard, the check-in process was seamless. Compared to other Sri Lankan apartments, this one was thoughtfully designed and not cluttered with furniture, which we really appreciated. When the internet went down, Johnny responded within 30–40 minutes with a fix and a clear explanation—I loved that level of service. It was just my girlfriend and me traveling, and while we didn’t need a three-bedroom place, we absolutely loved the extra space. Next time I’m in town, I’ll definitely be booking this place again. Loved the stay—thank you, Johnny!

We stayed at Jen's place for 5 nights and we enjoyed every bit of it. Waking up to the smell and the sound of the waves of the Indian Ocean was amazing. The apartment was well kept, with fresh towels and clean sheets provided. Location of the apartment was convenient too, with nearby bistros and restaurants that are within a walking distance. We had excess to the pool,which was a plus point for our kids. Responsive host and highly recommend Jen's place.

Ich war mit meiner Freundin für 4 Wochen in dieser Unterkunft und wir haben uns sehr wohlgefühlt und würden jederzeit wiederkommen. Wir fanden die Wohnung noch größer, als sie auf den Fotos rüberkam. Bei Fragen war Chitranganie immer zu erreichen und antwortete sehr schnell. Die Lage der Wohnung ist mit ein paar Schritten vom Strand perfekt. Zusätzlich ist die Wohnung mit allem ausgestattet, was man benötigt. Wir können die Wohnung auf jeden Fall empfehlen.

Jayantha kept in touch with me for any need from check in to check out. I stayed with my family for 1 month. The house is great for staying with family. I wanted to stay for 1 more month, but I couldn't due to some personal problems. Jayantha is a very good person. He gave me many concessions. I apologize and feel sorry for you Jayantha. From this place, everything is very close to super market, local market. You can go anywhere in Colombo quickly. It is an amazing feeling to stand on the balcony of the house and see the sea. Finally, I will say, my family and I had a wonderful time. Thank you Jayantha for your cooperation.

Our stay at this place was great.

This apartment has three rooms all with the majestic Indian ocean view, the lounge and kitchen also has mesmerizing view of the ocean. Clean, spacious and fitted with all the basic needs, this apartment is suitable for families and those who are looking for a home away from home. A perfect holiday home that provides comfort with hygiene and serene environment to soothe the tiring minds during much deserving holidays. The owner Mr. Sunil is also very cooperative and polite person and it was a pure delight dealing with him and staying at his beautiful holiday apartment. Highly recommended. Raj

wir haben die Ruhe, den Garten, den schönen Bungalow und die Nähe zum langen Strand sehr genossen. Janitha und ihre Angestellten sind sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. wir haben uns rundum wohl gefühlt und würden jederzeit wiederkommen. war ein perfekter Einstieg für uns auf Sri Lanka.
