A beautifully designed villa nestled in the forest near Galle.
We had a good stay at Villa Amma Erna! A little escape from the busy places. The team were incredibly welcoming and made sure we were truly spoilt throughout our stay. Even though it was a last-minute booking on the very same day, Anitha made us feel completely at ease. She also ensured everything was taken care of, especially when we had to leave early: breakfast and our journey were sorted for every day until we left. The breakfast spread is different each day to let you have their local taste. Minutes to Unawatuna and Galle. Highly recommended!🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
There can be quite a bit of animal noise to wake you up each morning, which may be a little uncomfortable if you’re a light sleeper or hoping for a good lie-in during your holiday and whether you’re comfortable without air conditioning.

Beautiful villa in the middle of the nature
We loved the villa on a little hill with a beautiful view. Amazing accommodation with lovely, sweet staff. They make the breakfast, it was amazing. The whole constructie of the villa was all beautiful to see.
Was a little bit too much animal sounds during the night for us. It’s amazing but a little bit too noisy.

The most magical stay.
This was the most amazing experience. The staff were incredible and the food was some of the best we had in Sri Lanka. We received a really warm welcome and an espresso on arrival.
The villa is in the most perfect hillside spot and we watched monkeys in the trees before brunch.
The breakfast is incredible- really imaginative half Sri lankan half western dishes with so much fresh food and flavour. The chef is incredible so we did a cookery class with her which was amazing.
The spa treatments were unreal. I had the best massage I've ever had.
The manager was so friendly and kind and just really wanted to help us enjoy our stay.
There's no Aircon but the room is so cool because of the fans and the outside breeze that it really did not matter.
There's also no alcohol but the staff helped us get a tuktuk for very little money to a liquor store for wine.
We really felt so at home there. It's a very 'help yourself/make yourself at home' vibe that you feel from the moment you enter the property.
Nothing. Everything was absolutely incredible.

Regret making this booking .
The room was large and that was it
1. The photos of pool area on Booking.com do not represent reality . In reality there is large brick fence so any view of the jungle from pool area is completely blocked . I raised this direct with lady who appeared to be in charge and she said the owner intends updating the photos . Not good enough in my view .
2. Breakfast is NOT included. They offer what they call a brunch which commences at 9.30 am completely outside normal breakfast hours. It was ok but below expectations.
After brunch the staff sit down and eat the leftovers in front of you . Never seen this before having travelled Sri Lanka a number of times sometimes up to 5 weeks a visit .
3. The villa is in a bad location . I utilised Uber and Pickme Apps a number of times and more often than not the driver didn’t attend as they didn’t know where the place is .
There are no cafes , restaurant close by so you are stuck with no options close by.
4. There is no fridge in the room and no aircon, just 2 fans .
5. The reviews state the property is an architectural masterpiece. You have to be kidding me . I’m very suspicious of the reviews for this property and if they are genuine. The design is very minimalist i understand that but it’s just not attractive. The furniture in the eating area looks like something out of a cheap office .
6. Staff were ok , meant well but lacked the warmth of many other places I have stayed in Sri Lanka .
In summary, I was disappointed and regret booking here .

Breakfast and Wolly. Also the locals working there are the most sweetest individuals and very helpful.
The location- way inside from the main road. difficult to find the property.
AC - no AC in the room. Fan is there but not sufficient given the hot weather. An air cooler is preferable
No windows- the outside noise is very loud given no windows and the net covering the room is dirty thereby disrupting the view.
Peacocks n other animals are too loud and disturbing.
WIFI was weak and most of the times didnt connect.
No shataf in the toilet. Bathroom is open concept.
