What I liked most about Villa Thuya was the exceptional privacy, the peaceful beachfront setting, and the beautiful villa itself. The staff were incredibly warm, attentive, and always willing to help all thanks to butler mr. SAMEERA who was attending all the type and approach with respectful way asking for any assistance and also helper madashanka who caring about garden and swimming pool on daily basis and star of show was chef SHEAN who cooked a very delicious meals and snacks and prepared exactly to our preferences, making every meal enjoyable to every member of my family .The villa was spotless, spacious, and perfect for a relaxing family getaway. Watching the sunset from the property each evening was unforgettable. And the garden contains many different types of plants and some time you observed some animal crossing by such as water monitor lizard and mongoose Overall, it was a truly memorable stay, and I would happily return.
Honestly, there wasn’t much to dislike. If I had to mention one thing, it would be that the villa is in a peaceful, secluded location, so shops and franchises restaurants are a bit of a drive away. However, this is also part of its charm if you’re looking for privacy and relaxation. Everything else—from the hospitality and food to the cleanliness and comfort—was excellent.

The villa is beautiful, situated along a stunning beach in Balapitiya. The area is quiet but there are a few restaurants nearby and it is a short tuk tuk ride to Hikkaduwa. The staff at the villa were excellent and extremely accommodating and welcoming.
The only improvement is an option for a duvet on the beds (only a sheet was provided). Since the air conditioning was extremely powerful it requires a thicker comforter on the bed.

Beautiful setting but the images online don't show the lack of upkeep on what they class as a 5 star property.
This is NOT a serviced villa / hotel - maybe I overlooked this during the booking. But NO ROOM CLEAN during the 4 days I was here, breakdast was basic, but OK. NO drinks on site so you have to buy your own. But unlike an Airbnb there is no location to store them. My room an multiple signs of water ageing, water damage and general lack of care i.e. the towels were so poor I would only use them to clean the floor with back home.
The beach shown on booking.com is NOT attached to the villa. Pool is nice and well maintained.
Location is away from any key tourist spots, which is what I wanted... but travel time to anywhere that serves "quality" food is minimum 30-45 minutes.
A 5 star location??? absolutely not, images look amazing but my high standards were not even close to being met.
I will stress - i did a last minute booking and got a very low price for the stay. If I paid the "Was" price I would have been claiming for a refund...
Finally - this is an OWNER issue not the staff on site, they were great and really helped me whenever I needed.
