Guest Review: I really loved staying here 🙌🏼 Wish I could’ve stayed for longer. Beautiful, serene and clean. Loved the aesthetics and the gorgeous room. Great with a shared kitchen, filtered water and fridges available🧘🏻‍♀️🌿

Guest Review: If we could give 11 points, we would. Villa Hillcrest was absolutely amazing, the staff and the food, the location and our own little villa. Everything was absolute perfection!

Guest Review: We chose this place strictly for the plunge pool and sea views, and were amazed by it all! Our mornings were spent soaking in the sunrise with coffee as the peacocks and langurs added themselves to the mix. The property is located close to beaches, restaurants and the famous smoke and britters, which is down the road from the same. David and Chamara, along with the rest of the team were available almost 24*7. All of our tiny queries/needs (activity, food and transportational options) were catered to with highest standard of professionalism and efficiency. Special mention to Lucy who gets spoiled with belly rubs all day, loving addition to the entire experience.

Guest Review: The best place so far we stayed in Sri Lanka.! Already here for 6 days and every day we change location. The man that welcomed us very friendly and good English speaking! Although the check in was till 8:00 pm we where late on the road and he had no problem to to the check in 1.5 hour later. The room super nice and clean. In front of the room are the train rails and you can see the train pass buy from your balcony, that is really cool !! Highly recommend!!!
