Excellent breakfast, limited options. Included fresh fruit platter, fresh juice, tea and coffee with eggs prepared as per request. Very boutique property, tastefully done, spacious rooms, clean. The decor with lights really changes the mood in the restaurant and pool in the evening. Friendly owners and competent team, equally friendly pooches :)

We had an absolutely outstanding stay at Channa Villa Bentota, and I can wholeheartedly recommend this guesthouse to anyone visiting Sri Lanka. Having known Channa for over 10 years and having visited Sri Lanka six times since 1995, I can confidently say that this was one of the best experiences we've had in the country. From the very beginning, the service was impeccable. We were picked up from the airport and returned there at the end of our stay, just as we requested. The transportation was punctual, comfortable, and handled with great professionalism, which made our arrival and departure seamless and stress-free. The guesthouse itself is located just about 200 meters from the beautiful Bentota Beach, it offers easy access to the sea, and the rooms are well-equipped with both a fan and air conditioning, ensuring comfort regardless of the weather. The rooms are clean, cozy, and tastefully decorated, creating a relaxing atmosphere that made us feel right at home. During our stay, we also had the pleasure of being accompanied by Channa on several excursions. He guided us on a memorable tour to Nuwara Eliya, enriching the experience with his extensive knowledge of the region and its culture. His insights made the trip much more meaningful and enjoyable. We also visited the impressive Buduruvagalla Temple, which was a highlight of our trip, made even more special by Channa’s friendly and informative guidance. Additionally, we enjoyed a wonderful boat tour on the Bentota River, where we could relax and take in the stunning natural scenery and peaceful surroundings. Channa’s personal involvement and care truly made these experiences stand out. Beyond the tours, we had the pleasure of dining at the guesthouse, on invitation from Channa. The dinner was excellent—delicious, beautifully prepared, and served in a warm, welcoming atmosphere. I intendetd to write some more, but the place in booking is too short.

I would say that Charika Villa is just a perfect example of hospitality. The room is lovely, the furniture is new and pleasant to use, and the bathroom is great size and even has a heater. The host is amazingly supportive. He found us a great surf instructor and helped us with transport but never promoted unwanted services. The breakfast was also great and peacocks and squirrels running around were so lovely. If you are looking for a place where you can rest you mind - that is a great choice.

This property was a real oasis on the other side of the railway track. It was luxurious, had lovely decor, had a good pool, had great hosts and was excellent value. The breakfasts were fantastic and our host Nelson cooked us 2 delicious meals on our 2 nights there - the food was so good that we just didn’t want to eat anywhere else. Right up there with all the places we stayed in during our Sri Lankan holiday. A great find!

Lovely room hosted by a lovely family. The room is spacious and comfotable with a quiet a/c. When I first arrived, the wifi wasn't working that well, I mentioned it to the host, and he called Digitel and fixed it in 5 minutes! Then there was a huge storm and the electricity went out, and they were in my room in no time turning on the fuses. No problem was too big for this family! I also loved my breakfasts here-- I have all kinds of food issues-- low carb, no gluten, and the dad happily created healthy and delicious breakfasts for me!

What a wonderful place. We felt so welcome. The room was lovely and clean, and we had a quite large outdoor private area. The host is very friendly and serviceminded. She recommend the best restaurants and made good deals for us for tours and transport. The guesthouse is in a quiet area not far from the most wonderful beach you could imagine. You just have to go down the road, cross the railway at the station and go through the park....We highly recommend a stay and would gladly return of we came to the area again
