  Wundervolles Guesthouse direkt am nördlichen Ortseingang von Kosgoda. Sehr freundliche Familie, fantastisches Essen zu fairen Preisen. Sanka, der Chef, bietet auch Touren an. Bahnhof und Bushaltestelle fußläufig zu erreichen. Schöner Strand wenige Minuten zu Fuß entfernt.

  Jewel in the crown so far as I’m concerned!

  A stunning family-run guesthouse with beautiful pool set in lush gardens. The food is exceptional, authentically Sri Lankan and the best I have eaten in Sri Lanka. Several languages are spoken and the owners so helpful in arranging any help needed ; communications and guidance are very good. I did not want to leave this oasis of relaxation and hope to return.

  Wir waren für 3 Nächte in der Unterkunft und werden auf jeden Fall wiederkommen. Wir haben nichts zu beanstanden, das Zimmer war sauber und schön, die Terrasse war riesig und lädt abends zum verweilen ein, der Pool ist sehr sauber, genauso wie die ganze Anlage, die liebevoll gepflegt wird. Das Frühstück lässt keine Wünsche offen und alle Angestellten, sowie der Besitzer sind sehr freundlich und geben einen das Gefühl willkommen zu sein.

  I had an absolutely fantastic time at Sankarest Villa. Right from the start i felt right at home at their lovely place. Sanka and his family did a stellar job to make this holiday a very special one for me, one i will think fondly about for many years to come. The food Sankas mom and their staff prepared for me almost every night was nothing short of incredible. With every meal there was something new and tasty, something i had never seen eaten before. I highly recommend eating there. Almost everything they prepare is locally sourced and always super fresh. They always had great tips what do do or where to visit, and quickly organized the stuff i needed some assistance with. There is plenty to do and see in the area, but Kosgoda itself is a very quiet village with an absolutely amazing tropical beach with golden sand you have entirely for yourself. Overall i highly recommend staying at Sannkarest Villa. I absolutely loved it there and hope I'm lucky enough to return one day. Thank you all for your exceptional hospitality!

  We’ll be back

  We chose our stay at Sankarest Villa with the idea of a complete rest in mind after several days traveling around the island. We were not disappointed. From the minute we arrived we were warmly greeted by the family that run the Villa. Over the next four days were able to spend time relaxing by the great pool in the very lovely garden as well as take local trips organised by the family in their own Tuk Tuk. We chose to eat at the Villa everyday enjoying the more than delicious food cooked by Sunita and her team who accommodated our dietary requirements perfectly. Sanka, the house manager, was constantly attentive to any enquiries or needs. He was informative about local places of interest including arranging the best massage that we experienced in Sri Lanka. We spent enjoyable and entertaining times chatting with Kohnie who also ensured that we had everything that we wanted. The location was perfect for us situated yards away from a beautiful solitary beach but also near transport. The Villa was very well priced for our spotless accommodation. There was a warm family atmosphere but we also enjoyed the privacy that the accommodation afforded in terms of size and space. Sankarest has many returning visitors. We hope to be amongst them in the future. Thank you also to Thamale, Buba, Hailey and Selena.
