This place is a true gem. We can not recommend it highly enough. We can honestly say that we had the best time staying at Amara Villa. From the communication with staff before we arrived, to the whole experience of being in this stunning place, we genuinely have nothing negative to say. We were so well looked after. Nothing was too much trouble. Whilst we were there, we were fortunate enough to meet the owners of the property, and it made our holiday even more wonderful. They are a gorgeous couple, who made us feel so relaxed and cared for. We will absolutely go back... The room was spotless and decorated to a very high standard. The villa was of a fantastic design and we couldn't quite believe the standard of craftsmanship. The bed was super comfy, and the water was always warm. This is a place to relax, unwind, enjoy the coast, explore...please visit, but treat it well...gems like this are rare.
There was nothing we didn't like. It way exceeded our expectations.

Absolute 5-star experience at Amara Villas! Manager Duminda is a standout host - so welcoming and took care of everything we needed with a smile. The whole staff was fantastic, always going the extra mile to make our stay special. The food was incredible - we ended up eating at the hotel more than we planned because everything was so delicious! Our kids practically lived in the pool, and the beach is just a quick walk away. Such a perfect spot for families. Spacious, clean rooms and the most helpful team you could ask for. Big thanks to Duminda and crew for making our stay unforgettable!

What should I start with. When we entered the villa we were so amazed at the quality of the place. Every little detail is thought of, the room was big and the cleanest we saw on the island. We truly felt we can relax our bodies and minds (highly recommend booking a massage in the garden, truly a zen experience). The owners really care for the villa and the garden, making sure everything works like a charm. I can’t not mention hotel manager Duminda’s professionalism. He took care of every little ask we had. He even helped organise our airport transfer after our check out date. The rest of the staff was also amazing at their jobs. Hoping to come back!

This is a beautiful property- so many flowers and well cared for plants in the lovely peaceful garden. The house is well appointed with spacious rooms. A quiet retreat in a small village away from tourists and crowds. Duminda and his team made us so comfortable and happy. Delicious Sri Lankan breakfast as well! A short walk from a small beach, and plenty of nice restaurants within walking/tuktuk distance. It’s a bit of a distance from Galle so ideal if you had a car or you can easily take the local bus.
So many mosquitoes- clouds of them in the evening and morning. Lots of standing water around with numerous mosquito larva, this could be monitored. Perhaps the veranda or the rooms could have screens.

A stunning villa with stunning gardens and only a 5 minute drive from the centre of Ahangama and all the restaurants there. The bedrooms are beautifully furnished and the staff are wonderfully discreet and yet available when needed. Duminda in particular is very professional and experienced in how to give good customer service. Amara villa is like a home away from home and we will be back again many times in the future I hope.
Not really a major problem but bath towels are a little small!

The staff and food were exceptional. The entire visit they ensured I was well taken care of.
A lot of mosquitoes in the evenings made it a little difficult to sit outside and enjoy the beautiful view.

The staff. Duminda is a gem. The stay, the pool, the breakfast. Loved it all.
It’s old school and not automated. So enjoy that Charm. Also it’s in the middle of nature, a little cut out, but it’s beautiful.
