We stayed at Villa Lucky Star for just two night and we would have stayed longer if we could have. To find this hidden gem (no indication/sign outside), just trust google maps or follow the direction/description of Lisa, the general manager. Also Ursula, the owner, is such a lovely person. There are two most beautiful beaches (Silent Beach and Goyambokka Beach) in walking distance from the villa. You get beach towels from the villa. On the beaches sun beds were offered for free if you buy a drink or eat something. On Goyambokka beach we especially liked the Yellow Mellow bar. Beside the mentioned beaches you can also enjoy the villa’s fantastic garden with sun beds facing the ocean and the pool. You also should have dinner at least once at the villa. Thisara, the cook, offers every night two options of dishes, that have been always very yummy. To mention last but not least, is the breakfast in one of the villa’s Cabanas - just amazing (the breakfast and the view). Our room was very clean, lovely decorated with a super-nice balcony with seating area and sea view. So, if you want to visit Tangalle, don’t hesitate to stay at Villa Lucky Star. We will definitely come back.

No complaints at all!

Beautiful setting right in front of the ocean waves. Superb pool and amazing, well-maintained outdoor areas. Very comfortable room and one of the best bathrooms we had in Sri Lankan guesthouses. Although there is no air conditioning, the ceiling fans were more than enough for a good night’s sleep. Nice beaches nearby, and the staff were very welcoming and helpful. Breakfast was simple but tasty. We had an excellent stay.

Access is not very easy due to a rough road, but with a van or tuk-tuk it was not a problem.

Villa Lucky Star is situated in an unbelievable position between two lovely beaches and its atmosphere is one of calmness and beauty. Breakfast was superb with eggs, toast, tea or coffee and a huge plate of fresh fruit. They also do superb dinners to order with one of the best salads I have ever had. The swimming pool and its surroundings were also very beautiful. One final thing, the staff, especially the manageress Lisa, were more than helpful and to be highly commended.

The location of this hotel is simply breathtaking. Waking up with the sound of the waves and watching the sun going up is a perfect way to start your day. Cars and Tuk tuks are able to reach this hotel, but the last part of the road is not so comfortable as the road is not paved. The room was spacious. It is not the most modern one, but everything was very clean. 2 best beaches are in walking distance, just as restaurants and bars. The staff was very friendly and we fell very welcome. It was a little paradise.

When you want to stay around Tangalle to visit the beautiful Goyambokka beach (8 min walk) and Silent beach (15 min walk) this Villa is situated in the best location! It can get really hot and humid in Tangalle, but since the Villa Lucky Star is situated on top of a rock the wind is always blowing and this makes staying here very comfortable. No problems with flies and mosquitos as a bonus. The rooms of the villa are classic and of good size. The room was cleaned daily. The bed was super comfy with a good working ceiling fan and light musquito net. It is great falling asleep and waking up with the sound of breaking waves. The saltwater pool was big and had a nice temperature. The pool was in great condition and cleaned every day. Next to the pool is a little grass area with some hammocks and sun beds overlooking the Indian Ocean.

Despite the romantic setting of the villa, there were some personal downsides. The breakfast offered is included but very basic and not diverse, different from what we experienced in the rest of Sri Lanka. Other breakfast options are, however, offered at additional cost (a.o.pancakes, extra egg, fruit juice). This felt a little cheap. Another example that put us off is that a simple bottle of water cost twice as much as in a local shop. This did not felt very welcomming. It would have been more friendly and sustainable if a water dispencer was in place. Dinner offered was only non-spicy "sri lankan" or simple "western" food. Great if you don't like spicy food, otherwise eat out in one of the nearby local restaurants. If you book a room in this Villa, expect European hospitality.

Perfection in everyway. An elegant property with warm professional hosts. With a pool overlooking breath taking views of the ocean, all set in tranquil garden this is the perfect place to relax and recharge. And if you venture out the picture perfect silent beach a 10 minute walk. Thankyou for the sea view upgrade. We appreciated every minute of our stay with you. We will definitely reccomend your beautiful villa and will when we come back to Sri Lanka this is the first accomadation we will book.

What a fantastic stay we had! Our room was spacious and cleaned quickly and efficiently each morning. The breakfast outside in the cabana with the wind blowing was superb! Our room had an outdoor daybed, hammock, bathtub, shower, toilet, table etc and we used it all each day. We also asked if we could rent a scooter and they had it brought to the villa for a very fair price. The grounds and pool all were just wonderful. The location is perfect nestled between two fantastic beaches that are just a few minutes walk away. Lisa who manages the villa is extremely personable and helpful and the other staff were very pleasant as well. I had a fever one night and Lisa brought me tea and checked my wellbeing a few times. All around great stay! I’d highly recommend Lucky Star!

The place was stunningly beautiful. It is perched atop a bluff overlooking the ocean. The rooms balcony gave us privacy with a perfect view of the sunrise. The bed was comfortable and even though it is hot out we felt the fan gave us plenty of breeze to sleep comfortably. Lisa, the manager and her entire staff were kind and accommodating. The saltwater pool was so relaxing with the perfect temperature of water. The hammocks and lounge chairs were comfortable. The food was delicious, although not as spicy as most Sri Lankan food. Even the morning coffee was plentiful and delicious. There are two beaches within walking distance. One is very close and the other a bit farther. Even with rough waves we were able to swim at one. And all of this with the sounds of the ocean breaking on the rocks.

I wish there was an option for spicy food.

Beautiful location with amazing views, we had the place to ourselves and the staff were very helpful with whatever we needed. It was quiet at night and we booked the suite on the roof top which was great for late night drinks and cards under the stars. Excellent choice of beaches within walking distance and the evening meals were simple yet delicious. We couldn’t have asked for more.
