Apartment holiday rentals in Dehiwala

I was privileged to have stayed at 7 Amber as it brought back nostalgic memories of my childhood. The welcome Ravi and Rohini gave me was warm, friendly and typical of Sri Lankan hospitality. On arrival, I found food in the fridge to keep me going for the first couple of days. This helped me to get settled and enjoy the the apartment. The apartment was like a home from home. I felt very relaxed and comfortable. It was spacious, clean and safe. The flat was very well equipped. There was a balcony at the front with a decked area. It was lovely to sit, enjoy a cup of Ceylon tea and listen to the birds. The apartment is an ideal location as it was very central and you could walk to the shops, supermarkets, hotels and restaurants. Ravi and Rohini were very friendly, kind and helpful. They even brought delicious home cooked Sri Lankan food for me on several occasions. I was very sad to leave as I felt I had become part of the family. I would highly recommend this apartment.

Excellent place, very spacious and comfortable in a central location. The host was very attentive, flexible and helpful. Thank you

Janik’s place was absolutely the best. There was so much attention to detail. The kitchen had all necessities. The bathrooms had all the amenities plus towels in all sizes. There was a lot of storage space in all the rooms & kitchen. The washing machine was very useful for a long stay. Even washing powder was provided (but we prefer liquid detergent so we got our own). In addition to the three main rooms there was a small extra room and an additional bathroom of a good size, which we didn’t know was there when we went. (We didn’t have to use this but shared the info in case someone is interested). All the rooms & the living room were very cheerful with windows facing outside & a lot of sunshine coming in, which I loved! The scenery was beautiful as it overlooked the Colombo golf course! It was very peaceful with the sounds of birds chirping & no traffic noise. The very best part was that the place was squeaky clean with comfy beds! Total value for money! Thank u Janik!

My family and I had an amazing time at the Urban Bloom. The apartment is in a prime and central location in Colombo which is super convenient. The apartment was tastefully decorated and it was very clean. Mithra went above and beyond in making our stay both comfortable and enjoyable. We arrived on my wife's birthday and to our surprise, she had left a beautiful (and tasty) birthday cake on the coffee table waiting for us. This was in addition to a birthday banner she hung in the family room. Mithra is also a great communicator who was very responsive as well. A good example is when I reported an issue in the ensuite bathroom and in the dryer (a previous guest had mistakenly put detergent into it), she took immediate action to rectify them. It's no wonder Mithra is a superhost. Based on my experience, I highly recommend Mithra and the Urban Bloom. Thank you, Mithra for being a great host!

Best view of the city.

The host is kind enough to have flexible check in and check out. The place was very clean with all the required items. I would be happy to come back and stay here when I need to stay in Colombo.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Absolutely Perfect – The Best Airbnb Experience We’ve Ever Had! From the moment we booked, Gayan went above and beyond to make sure everything was smooth and easy for us. His communication was outstanding, always polite, professional, and quick to respond to any question we had. The apartment itself was immaculate. I’m extremely fussy when it comes to cleanliness, and this place exceeded all expectations. Every corner was spotless, fresh, and beautifully maintained. You could tell that real care and pride go into looking after this property. It honestly felt like walking into our own home but better! Gayan’s attention to detail made the stay even more special. Everything we needed was provided, and more. Check-in was easy, the location was perfect, and we felt completely safe and comfortable throughout our stay. Without a doubt, this has been the best Airbnb experience we’ve ever had. If I could give more than 5 stars, I would.

Sudam's place was very clean and a quite place with all things I wanted. walking distance to supermarket and restaurants, Sudam is respectful and quite easy to communicate, we had a pleasant stay and highly recommend.

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this apartment! It was everything we needed and more. The space was spacious, clean, and perfect for living and working for a week. The WiFi was stable and reliable, which made working remotely a breeze. The kitchen was fully equipped, and we cooked every day without any issues. The location was ideal for a quiet getaway, set apart from the hustle and bustle of the city. Plus, having a market just around the corner was incredibly convenient—we found everything we needed there, including the freshest produce. The gym, though small, had all the essentials we needed to stay active during our stay. Subhani was an amazing host—so responsive and kind, always available if we needed anything. We truly appreciated their hospitality. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a peaceful, well-equipped home away from home!

Ilham is a generous host. He let us check in 4 hours earlier than check in time at no cost. He let us eat delicious rose apples from his garden and made sure we were comfortable. We locked ourselves outside buying pastries from the food tuk tuk that drives by his house every day and Ilhams house mate let us in and we had a lovely chat with her. They are a retired couple from UK maintaining a simple life long term in Sri Lanka with a rescue dog living with them upstairs. She was a great dog mom informing us about her dog’s nature with care and truth. This house is quiet but occupied by kind humans and the studio is very private with its own entrance from the garden. The house is very close to the beach and variety of restaurants and local markets and all sorts of stores. This was a great landing spot for us after long journey and we appreciated our time here very much. Thanks Ilham. We hope to see you again.

Chandi is an amazing host! She’s super friendly and always got back to me quickly. The apartment was fantastic! The stunning sea view and infinity pool made it the perfect place to relax and unwind. The train tracks are right outside the house, but the train wasn’t as loud as you’d think. It didn’t bother us at all, but it might keep you up if you’re a light sleeper. We had a bit of trouble finding it because the street address doesn’t seem to lead to the right place. But if you just use Elysian Residencies as the pickup or drop-off location, you should be fine. Overall, it was an incredible place to stay, and we had an amazing time!

My family and I had a great stay at Lahiru’s place! He was very responsive and waited for us to arrive after midnight! His place is very clean and in a great location - would highly recommend!

Absolutely incredible stay! We stayed here for 3 nights! Bryan’s place in Colombo exceeded all expectations. From the moment I arrived, I felt warmly welcomed. The apartment is exactly as shown in the photos —if not better in person! It's impeccably clean, tastefully designed, and thoughtfully equipped with everything you might need for a comfortable stay. The view from the balcony is a highlight—breathtaking cityscape that truly makes you feel like you're in the heart of Colombo. The natural light pouring in during the day, and the calming ambiance at night, created the perfect vibe whether I was relaxing or getting work done. Location-wise, it's fantastic—central, safe, and close to all major attractions, cafes, and convenience stores. Whether you're here for sightseeing, business, or a short stopover, this spot is a gem. He was responsive and genuinely invested in making my stay seamless. Would I come back? Absolutely. Highly recommend Bryan’s place to anyone visiting Colombo. 😀

Unfortunately, we only stayed for one night before our flight home, but we have very fond memories of our stay at Mahagedara! At first, we had a little trouble finding the place, but we quickly received all the necessary directions. The apartment is very spacious and well-maintained. The rooms have air conditioning and fans. There is a fully equipped kitchen, a washing machine, and two bathrooms (one connected to a bedroom), along with clean towels and bed linens. The view from the window was fantastic, and the balcony was very large. Additionally, there is access to a rooftop pool with a breathtaking view. We also received numerous recommendations for nearby restaurants and must-visit places. I highly recommend it, and I hope to return someday!

I stayed at this Airbnb for more than 10 days and had a fantastic experience. The place had everything I needed. private, secure, and fully equipped with all the amenities. It was spotless and well-maintained, with comfortable beds and a spacious layout. The kitchen was fully stocked, making it easy to cook meals. The air conditioning worked perfectly, keeping the space cool and comfortable. The location was ideal, within walking distance of restaurants and supermarkets. The check-in process was smooth, and the host was responsive and helpful throughout my stay. Highly recommend for both short and long stays

This is a home away from home. Staff and the owner were very proactive with communications. Internet was fast and convenient for working remotely. This apartment is world class. Thank you Nadith and your staff for the enjoyable stay for me.

Noel was an excellent host. Check in was a breeze in spite of our late arrival time. The apartment was fantastic in a great location as well. Noel was able to access us with a late check out as well which was greatly appreciated. We loved this place and highly recommended Noel as a host

We stayed for a week and absolutely loved it—so cozy and spotless! Check-in was super easy, and the owner was incredibly polite and always quick to respond. Really made us feel at home

To all my fellow Indian travellers, this is the place to stay in Colombo—posh, away from pesky neighbours, and totally private. 1) Located in a high-rise, the cute little apartment is ideal for 2 couples or a family of 4. 2) The apartment is clean and well lit, as in the pictures. It is modern and equipped with a big fridge, washing machine, dishwasher, geysers, AC, and hob. 3) If any issues arise, ask. The host is gracious and resolves them immediately. We had a comfortable and relaxed stay. Good luck and God bless.

The host was super friendly and replies really quick.

Fabulous location and stylish apartment. Well Maintained with fabulous amenities including two pools, a gym and restaurant within the premises. Nilushi was a great host and was extremely helpful and friendly. The apartment had two spacious rooms for 4 adults or 2 adults and 2 children. It is located in one of Colombo’s most sought after neighbourhoods with easy access to restaurants, cafes, shops and bars. We had a wonderful time and will certainly be back again!!! Thank you Nilushi!!!

This is a fantastic apartment in a lovely upmarket neighbourhood of Colombo. Shayani was great to communicate with, check-in was easy and the place was spotlessly clean. The flat is well equipped, the beds are comfy and the balcony provides a superb view towards the Colombo seafront. There’s a great little supermarket nearby, along with a Barista coffee shop. In addition to the trendy Wildish restaurant on the ground floor of the building, there are many great restaurants in Park St Mews which is an easy walking distance. This apartment is highly recommmended. We will definitely return. Five stars.

Second time we stayed here and it didn’t let us down. Very much private as described. Highly recommend and we look forward to returning in a near future.

The apartment is centrally located in one of the nicest areas in Colombo. Great shopping, food, amenities, parks all around with very easy access to some of the best malls in Colombo. The suit itself is amazing with two very nice swimming pools, a large fully equipped gym, free access to pool tables and a nice cafe. The apartment itself is clean and felt luxurious. It is one of the best stays I've had in a long time. Benjamin is an excellent host. He was very responsive and even cleared up a small issue which came up due to a severe storm in Cololmbo. The apartment is build very well and was barely affected by the shock weather, so safety standards were clearly very strong.
