Beautiful colonial property with lots of character and an incredible sea view. There is a lovely pool and garden area, beds are comfy and breakfast on the terrace was great. Staff are helpful and not at all overbearing.

Probobly intercom in the rooms would have been nice. Other than that it was excellent and nothing else that I disliked.

The place is more beautiful than pictures. The rooms are very spacious, beds are comfortable and clean. Bathrooms are huge. The ocean view from the first floor rooms is stunning. But more than anything else, its the staff that makes you feel very welcome and are ready to serve you all the time with a huge smile. The food is a little expensive, but quite tasty. The breakfast portions are huge. Its a small property so there is no huge crowd. There is a lot of common area to hangout with family and friends. Would definitely recommend this place.

Amazing place to stay, beautiful house, pool and garden. Room was lovely and staff were very helpful. You can hear the sea from the gardens and step out of the gate at the bottom of the garden to watch the waves. We think we even saw turtles in the sea from the gate! The walk to Coconut Hill was 10 minutes and from then on you can pretty much walk along the beaches to Mirissa beach if the tide is right.

Beach is rocky but nice to observe crabs and for a walk.

Spacious common places - great to spend family evening playing board games or cards. Very nice rooms with bathrooms open to outside area. Nice pool and garden.

Its hard to find any negatives about this Villa, but I have to say that the fact that you cannot swim anywhere along the stretch of beach in front of the villa was a little disappointing, but we knew that in advance.

I should explain that there are 2 Villas with the same name, side by side, with each Villa having 5 rooms. There were 11 of us staying in the Villa, so we 7 rooms booked. This meant that we had one full villa to ourselves and 2 rooms in the adjoining villa. As agreed in advance with the owner, we used the one villa for our food and spend the leisure time there also. The Villa exceeded all our expectations, from the Villa itself, the staff, the food and the customer service. Rooms were exceptional and the staff cooked a fantastic meal for the 11 people on our last night, that had us all wanting to stay longer. The Villa and garden area with the pool were maintained every day and everything was in pristine condition all the time. Breakfast every morning for the 3 days was a feast, with nothing an issue for the kitchen staff. We would all highly recommend this Villa, especially if you have a group that will occupy all 5 rooms in the Villa and have it to yourself.

The service from the team was great.

Nothing that we didn’t like, but location wise it would be nice to have clear big signpost directing to the hotel.

A nice colonial building, well maintained and tastefully decorated. We arrived quite late, but were welcomed with a smile. We were offered drinks and shown to our room. The room was comfortably furnished and the bathroom was exceptionally big. We stayed 2 nights and enjoyed the stay. The food was delicious and they catered for vegetarians. We went on an early whale watching tour, and came late, but they still served us a delicious breakfast. Amazing service. It was a bit difficult to find, and perhaps large sign board on the main road would do some justice to this paradise. I would definitely recommend this hotel!!

We have nothing negative to say about this Villa. It had everything we wanted and we loved everything about it so, we look forward to visiting again soon.

The Villa is wonderfully decorated...it was like stepping back in time with old colonial furniture... just beautiful! The garden was immaculate at all times, the pool was clean and although you cant swim in the ocean due to the rocks and coral, we saw around 30 to 40 turtles each evening which was an absolute delight! The nearest beach for swimming and surfing is only a 5 minute Tuk Tuk ride away.

Stunning location and property. Saw peacocks and had a relaxing time. Staff was very polite. Cleaning took some time and multiple requests but overall a wonderful stay.

Small things could be improved on. Keeping pool and area clean, Staff try there hardest but could do with some direction. We still enjoyed our stay and would recommend the hotel.

Rooms upstairs were lovely, building and artwork very tastefully decorated, nice size pool and garden great view , not too far from mirrissa beach which we preferred as quieter, nice secluded beach where you can swim with turtles to the left of the property about 10mins walk along the rocks and sand far nicer than turtle beach , breakfast was really good , we also ate there in the evening and enjoyed a good standard of dish.

This hotel has a lot of potential. As already written it is quiet, relaxing, has great ocean views and two refreshing pools. The staff is very friendly and helpful if you ask them. But you do have to ask about everything yourself. There is no front desk, there is no manager and during check in, nobody really explains how the whole place works. From my point of view, a hotel or villa in this price category should ACTIVELY provide a certain standard of service and information, and not only on request. or is the room cleaned during the stay, what do you have to do to have it cleaned? How to get to town? What options are there to eat in the hotel, and in the vicinity? Where to get pool towels? At one point, there was a power outage only in our room during the night. It was difficult to find someone from staff, as there is no front desk. And nobody told us that there is a bell to ring for staff - we found it by accident the next day. So it was some time before we found some night watchman near the entrance gate who would help us and detect and fix the blown fuse. We had a great stay, but you could enhance the guest experience significantly if you would provide a little bit more information

Villa Atulya is a beautiful property with two pools. Our ground floor room was spacious and comfortable. We would have preferred a proper sofa, though, instead of an unused single bed, so as to have an additional comfortable place to sit. Staff was friendly and helpful with transport and laundry. The Egg Benedict for breakfast was a real treat!

The first day of our stay the electricity didn’t work so well. Wifi connection very unstable. Should provide more towels also for pool use.

I like the sea view from the room. All staff are very friendly and responsive quick. Room and bathroom are both spacious. And the meals are all so good. I like their breakfast. We had fish and pasta that was very tasty as well. Pool is also nice.

The rooms were lovely and very comfortable. Visited with 2 of my friends and we were very well looked after ! The staff were extremely friendly and were very attentive! The food was fabulous and the chef was very very good ! His lunu miris is to die for and we even got a jar of lunu miris to take away :) The whole process was delightful , from booking our stay all the way to check out ! The little private beach was also quite welcoming ! We had our very own private Little Rock pool and which was a pleasant surprise. All in all - a fabulous stay ! Thank you very much to all at Villa Athulya ! I will definitely recommend you and will definitely be back . Xox K

Very old fashioned hotel. I don't know whether you can call it a hotel even . The bathroom was very open, with the inner part which was totally exposed to the outside. Hence this allowed small flies and insects to get into the bathroom. Even in the dining area, you could not get away from the flies.

The welcome was really good. The bed was comfortable but although the bed had mosquito nets all around, it was difficult to keep the mosquitos away from the rooms.
