“This was our most beautiful stay in Sri Lanka. A stunning private villa all to ourselves… The villa features a lovely swimming pool, an extremely comfortable bed, and all the equipment you need, including a refrigerator, television, and fast internet… The pool was fantastic, and I would highly recommend booking this place to anyone.”

“We loved our stay here. The house is in a (hard to find) side street to a very busy street but we didn’t hear any traffic noise at all. It’s a paradise close to Unawatuna and only a small Tuktuk ride away from Galle… The host was always available and very helpful! The pool was amazing.”

“It was an oasis, wonderfully peaceful and quiet with nothing but birdsong. The rooms had AC and mosquito nets… The kitchen had everything you needed… and the wifi was super fast. Outside the gardens are beautiful and overlooking the jungle on one side. We spotted monkeys, lots of birds and lizards.”

All questions

Where is Yehen's Villa?

Yehen's Villa is on Ranaviru Anuruddha Mawatha, a quiet lane in Unawatuna 80600, about 100 metres from the main road. Unawatuna railway station is 350 metres away, Unawatuna Beach 1.7 km and Galle Fort about 5 km, so the beach and the fort are both a short tuk-tuk ride.

How far is the villa from Galle Fort?

Galle Fort is about 5 km away, usually a short tuk-tuk or car ride depending on traffic. Many guests explore the fort, the lighthouse, the ramparts and the museums by day, then come back to a quiet garden and a private pool in the evening instead of staying inside the busy fort.

How many guests can stay?

The villa has two apartments with separate entrances. Each has two air-conditioned double bedrooms with en suite bathrooms and sleeps up to four. Book both and the whole villa sleeps up to eight in four extra-large double beds, with two sofa beds available for extra flexibility.

Is the swimming pool private?

Yes. The 30 ft by 12 ft pool sits in the villa's own secure garden and is used only by guests staying at the villa. Book the whole villa and it is entirely yours. The pool has a shallow end and underwater lights, and guests love an evening swim after dark.

What are the check-in and check-out times?

Check-in is from 12:00 to 23:00 and check-out is by 11:00. Please tell us your arrival time in advance. An early luggage drop or a later check-out can often be arranged when nobody arrives straight after you, so just ask on WhatsApp before your stay.
