Apartment holiday rentals in Matara

Very good apartment, everything looked like the photos. You will have access to a big kitchen with fridge and enough things to cook normal food, a room with a table + chair, good for working on computer, a bedroom with big bed, wardrobe big enough for 2 weeks, chairs, and a bathroom with shower with hot water, toilets and sink, and 2 small balconies. Place is quiet, you are far from trafic and nightlife, you can hear animals, especially peacocks who can be strongly noisy in early morning, and hear a mosque with pray in early morning too, but this one is kind of far. They are buildings under construction around the apartment, there was not renovation when I was, but it can be. Host is really nice, everything was smooth and confortable, amazing place to stay. To notice: - even if you can go to center by walking, I strongly advice to have a scooter - water pressure and wifi are not strong, as many places in Sri Lanka - they are dogs in the garden, very friendly

place was immaculate. Brand new and very spacious. Having a large balcony and open air kitchen and bathroom was such a treat! The location was perfect as it was just far enough away from the hussle of Hiriketiya and in a residential neighborhood where it allowed for a good night's sleep. Wifi was spotty but lots of places to work in town so wasn't much of an issue. The host was kind and very accommodating. I would absolutely stay here again.

We had a nice stay here. The apartment is clean and modern. Good value for the price paid. There’s a hot plate and fridge as well as a few cooking utensils. The WiFi was not the strongest and wouldn’t be able to support video calls if you need that for work. We couldn’t stream shows on the wifi but it’s fine for basic email checking. The biggest surprise regarding this stay was that the address listed is not the actual address where you’ll be staying. When we arrived at the listed address, we were put in a tuktuk and taken to the actual location. However, from the apartment it’s only about a 10 min walk to restaurants, 20 min walk to the grocery store and 15 min walk to the beach. The location is in a quiet neighborhood amongst the rice fields with friendly neighbors. The hosts came to check on us quite often. Overall, would recommend this stay to others.

Sahans fatter and mother greeted us in their garden with open arms and fresh cut coconuts, and their house is very nice. The room were very nice, but the balcony/terasse espaecially. Sarath helped us with whale watching booking, and even drive us there! This family is so, so sweet, and Sahan even offered to be our driver as for visiting Sinharaja rainforest and Uduwalawa. He is a super good guy and a very safe driver. Being with him and his family was a wonderful experience for us❤ we would definitely go again:)

Super host! Super attentive people who think along with everything, even took us with the tuktuk to our next stay! Recommended!!

Very good and the host was so friendly and helped with everything 😀

We liked our stay in the apartment, it was clean and the host was kind. The balcony and the AC was very appreciated.

Very nice place to lie comfortably on the beach and relax. The surf school next door is also highly recommended. Here you can combine relaxation and action. The place was clean, the breakfast (buffet) delicious and the team on site very kind and helpful. Highly recommend😊

I would recommend this stay . its great value for the price . its private and the area was peaceful . yes occasionally you hear the train and adds a bit of charm to the experience. I liked it :)

Very nice place to stay in the center of veligama. Recommended! ;)

Lovely 4 bed apartment super close to Mirissa centre and the beaches. Worth the price. Thank you!

Great week at Nishan’s villa. Few min walk to the beach down a side alley. 5 to 10 min Tuktuk ride to all nearby destinations in Weligama Bay. Villa was very spacious, 3 of 4 rooms AC’d, no AC in common areas but fans conveniently situated. Nishan was helpful organising airport pickup and drop off at a reasonable price and helped reschedule airport drop off due to change in departure date. Overall great welcoming stay!

We had an amazing stay! The house is surrounded by lush greenery, palm trees, and wildlife, making it feel like a jungle retreat. Secret Beach is just a 3-minute walk away—a stunning, secluded cove with soft sand, swaying palms, and crystal-clear water. Our host was fantastic, always helpful and ensuring we had everything we needed. The spacious kitchen and well-maintained house made our stay extra comfortable. Located just minutes from Mirissa, yet peaceful and immersed in nature. Renting a scooter made exploring even more enjoyable. Highly recommended!

This was our favorite stay so far in 6 weeks in Sri Lanka. Location is absolutely stunning in nature with an incredible patio overlooking the lake. We saw so many animals while sitting out there. The house itself is brand new and perfectly clean and super comfortable. This is a great long term option. It is further from the center of Weligama, which I personally loved because you’re out of the noise and bustle of the city but still a quick tuk tuk or scooter ride into town. The staff onsite are extremely kind of welcoming and are available to help all the time. Would 100% recommend this property!!

It was a beautiful and clean stay. We also found it super nice that we saw frogs on the window and to hear animals from the area. We really recommend this place!

this place is perfect! it's exactly as the pictures! the location is wonderful as it's sat right on the main weligama road. several restaurants within a 2 minute walk and the beach in around 5 minutes. the local cargills supermarket with wine and spirits is a 8 min walk. there is some road traffic noise here as you would expect from being in the hotspot, with earplugs it was no bother to us! oleg sister lives in the apartment underneath and she is incredibly friendly and helpful. she also has a 5 month old kitten who loved to escort us on and off the property (which was a bonus of us cat lovers). she also put a projector in the apartment for us which was handy to sit down and cosy up watching that after a surfing day!

A large manor with a very unique and beautiful environment. There are coconut groves, mango trees, and starfruit trees... The location is also very good. It's right next to the beach. The service is very welcoming. It feels like home. It's also very personalized. Because we came back late from whale watching, they gave us a house to check out late. Unfortunately, there wasn't enough time to stay at the hotel and enjoy such a beautiful environment. I highly recommend it.

We had a lovely stay at O2 villas in Weligama. The place is so very beautiful. Situated right by the river, and with just a couple of minutes walk to the beach. The two-apartment-villa that our family stayed in was spacious, superclean and seemed almost brand new. The interior decoration was also very tasteful, modern and stylish, like a smart boutique hotell. We cooked several basic meals in the kitchen and felt we had everything we needed. The aircon was both superefficient and quiet and helped creating a good night's sleep. The view from the house was just amazing. The garden is a true paradise, an oasis of palmtrees, fruittrees, outdoor furniture and even a barbeque. We saw monkeys and beautiful birds. Every night our host would light torches to light up the magical garden. The sitting group down by the river offered a cosy setting for an evening drink. Our host spoiled us by bringing coconuts, papaya and other fruits for us to eat directly from the garden. Our friendly host really did everything to make sure we had a wonderfull stay, answering attentatively to even the smallest of wishes. Only once did he not have the information we were looking for - we asked for advice on where to go for snorkling - but only an hour later he had done some research and even presented a brochour to us and offered his assistance in arranging it for us. He was indeed very serviceminded and helpful to us! He also helped us book whale-safari and he arranged a very nice river boat-sightseeing, as well as organized tuc tucs for us. We must mention the beach as well. It is a gorgeous sand beach with warm and inviting water. There were not that many people on the beach, and only a few smaller hotel with restaurants, so not much of a nightlife, which we appriciated! The whole area felt very genuine and unexplored, as well as safe and friendly. We stayed for 6 nights and can really recommend this great place.

O2 villas are great to stay at peaceful location next to back waters. The rooms are well equipped with all necessary things for a comfortable stay including cooking stove and utensils. The host Mr Jeewantha ensured our stay is comfortable and helped us with places to visit in Merissa, eating outlets and options etc. Overall a great place to stay.

Nice apartment located 20 min from the surfing beach. top location. Quiet (no sounds from the street). The hosts were super nice and let me do late check out for free. Only the cleaning standards should be improved. All in all I recommend it!

Good afternoon, great, clean accommodation, great bathroom, great shower, fridge is also available - beach with all the surf schools directly across the street, good restaurants right around the corner - host and his family very friendly, can recommend accommodation
