“Lovely stay just on the beach in this villa-hotel.”
+Lovely villa-hotel on a km long stretch of sand with no people. Staff was very friendly and helpful.

“Peaceful”
+So peaceful, near the bird sanctuary and away from busy Tangalle town
−The beach was too rough to swim - but this is the time of year we went, not the property!

+We stayed at villa blu for six nights and we couldn't be happier. It's a wonderful semi-secluded location with direct access to a beautiful beach, the villa itself is a perfect size that feels like you're staying at a (rich) friends place and the food is well executed - the Sri Lankan breakfast in particular was fantastic. The staff led by Kamal and Mithun were a stand out and really set the vibe for the stay. They were very accommodating, friendly and chilled out. When we had an allergic reaction to some food, they were helpful and accommodating. We also really enjoyed the company of the resident adopted dog Kalu and appreciated their compassion in taking her in - would love for them to extend this to the sweet old brown dog that stays near the beach gate. We loved being greeted by both dogs everyday.
−All positives. We'll stay again without hesitation.

“Amazing stay at Villa Blu - will definitely return!”
+This was my sixth trip back to Sri Lanka and my first time at Villa Blu, what an excellent property. The location was beautiful, your own private beach (not all the beaches in Sri Lanka are clean but this was very clean!). The staff were superb, all were respectful and helpful and regularly maintained the property throughout my stay. Kamal was exceptionally helpful in ensuring I enjoyed everything and checking in to make sure if I needed anything else. The food was pretty good and unless you are very fussy, there is enough on the menu to satisfy anyone’s taste including vegetarian options. Overall, the property was clean and in good condition, see below for some small feedback on the room.
−The only thing that could be improved on was the bathroom in my room - the shower area was looking a bit tired and could do with some new silicone and perhaps updated fittings. That’s not to say it was not functional, the shower was very functional and the water pressure was great, it was just some small cosmetic update that could be made to make everything look fresh.

“Breathtaking views, amazing staff”
+Was so impressed when we arrived. The most beautiful, luxurious villa with a friendly Sri Lankan welcome from the awesome staff team. Service- second to none. Views- outstanding - direct access to the beach Villa was clean, great facilities and tasty food options.

“Perfect luxury stay”
+Everything! Beautiful villa, staff were brilliant, food was some of the best we’ve had. Staff were so helpful, and on hand for anything we needed. They went above and beyond to provide a 5* service. We were very kindly upgraded into a bigger room, and we were the only guests. It felt like a private fully serviced villa experience that you would spent a fortune on. We had a fabulous time and will be recommending to our friends when they visit Sri Lanka later on in the year. Also we loved the little dog! She was so well behaved, was always around but even when we were eating she would leave us be. And we loved it when she’d come for beach walks with us. Would highly highly recommend Villa Blu, we loved our time there and wish we had longer than 3 nights!

“kleines Paradies im Süden von Sri Lanka”
+In diesem Hotel war einfach alles perfekt: wunderbares gepflegtes und sauberes Hotel mit grosszügigen Zimmern, toller Aussicht, sehr gute Küche, schöner Pool mit bequemen Liegestühlen, langer sauberer Strand und liebevolles Personal. Alle Wünsche wurden uns erfüllt! Im Besonderen möchten wir Kamal erwähnen, der uns nachts eine Führung zu den Fischern und Booten machte und uns während unseres Aufenthaltes sehr gut betreute. Vielen Dank für alles. Wir können dieses Hotel sehr empfehlen!
