Family-friendly vacation rentals in Central Province

Just amazing. It feels like living in England. Entire surroundings have english villas only. Very peaceful, very pretty and memorable

Great peaceful place very helpful caretaker and an impressive view

Excelent communication. Nice team at the house, very good food. Amazing view, house and location.

Sanjaya's place is amazing and beautiful. We had clear instructions and were even helpful in assisting with instructions for our driver. The home is on an elevation so although our car couldn't make it, they had a Tuk Tuk ready to take us and our bags. Once we checked in, we were given a tour of the house and were asked for breakfast times for the next day. The breakfast was amazing and a nice touch. The views here are what ultimately make this great as you get to see the city and mountains from the balcony and bathroom. You could also take in the views from the front of the home where you could easily sit and maybe read a book. Check-out was smooth and we will definitely miss this place. This will be my go to place when coming back to Nuwara Eliya!

We had an incredibly relaxed and satisfying stay at Rajiv’s place. It’s hard to believe this charming bungalow is 144 years old, thanks to Rajiv’s meticulous upkeep while preserving its colonial charm in every corner. Ideally located in Nuwara Eliya, it’s a perfect retreat for anyone looking to unwind. The hospitality was exceptional—caretakers Lasantha, Pradeep, and the team went above and beyond, from welcoming us with tea to preparing amazing dinners. They even let me join in and cook, which I thoroughly enjoyed! A special thanks to Rajiv for personally staying an extra hour to greet us and give us a tour of the property before leaving. Highly recommend this beautiful place for an unforgettable getaway!

Our stay at this bungalow was nothing short of amazing! The property is spacious, well-maintained, and offers breathtaking views, making it the perfect escape from the city. The presence of friendly dogs added a warm and homely touch to the experience. Sanjoy, the caretaker, was extremely helpful and ensured we had a comfortable stay. One of the highlights was the bathtub, which made for a relaxing retreat after a long day. Given the amenities, space, and hospitality, this place is an absolute steal for the price. Highly recommended for a peaceful and rejuvenating stay

Everything was as described. This spacious, clean and well equipped apartment is in a very good neighbourhood. The family were exceptionally welcoming and friendly. They even supplied tea and washing powder. Great value. I would highly recommend this place.

Amazing Stay!. Wonderful Location. Peaceful Property. Amazing Service from the Staff and the Host. 10/10

Sanjaya and his family were as friendly as the apartment was comfortable (very). Particular highlight was the balcony overlooking the Kandy valley - spent many a happy moment observing bustling life from up high. Would happily stay with Sanjaya again.

Dear Nilantha and Nilanka, Thank you so much for hosting us and supporting our business work there. It was a great stay and it is one of the very exclusive and friendly place in this area. We love the place and the exceptional hospitality of the host is amazing. Good Luck for your homestay business. Definitely we will visit again.

Our stay at Bandara’s place was a truly remarkable one. The place was designed by the host himself and has a local feel to it. The host is wonderful and responsive. The breakfast we ordered was also healthy and fresh. Bandara’s wife offered us fresh watermelon juice after a long day and it was a great touch. Bandara and his family were always one floor away and were very helpful and responsive. Bandara sent us a van for pickup from the airport at a convenient price and greeted us with tea. He offered to drop and pick us up to surrounding places. The host also arranged for a jeep to pick us up for a safari at a very reasonable price. Bandara also spoke to us about his personal experiences and told us some stories about himself and provided us with excellent local tips. We enjoyed our stay at Bandara’s place and would recommend Iduwara Guest to anyone. Looking forward to visiting again!

I stayed at Riverside for 3 weeks and it was a great stay. The apartment is situated a few km out of Kandy in a small village, which is great as you get to experience real Sri Lankan life, I found the villagers very friendly, often stopping to chat to me. The bus to Kandy is just 10 mins walk away. The apartment is lovely, very spacious and with a wonderful large balcony perfect for eating and working. There's an outside plug so you can plug in your laptop. Hiran and family are lovely, Hiran is happy to help with any problems and the breakfast cooked by his wife is delicious and different most days. I'd definitely recommend this apartment and I'd stay again also being a solo woman traveller I felt safe at all times.

Amazing cabine with a stunning view to the rock. Peter was really attentive and helpful. Many thanks to Sumit for the help and to raja for the transport!

It was a really nice stay. Bandula was a friendly host and gave tipps for sigiriya. The breakfast was a a really nice top on. We would recommend it and its a good location to slow down a little bit and reach everything good in sigiriya.

Lovely hosts, a clean and comfortable room, and a great location. Felt like a home away from home. Would definitely return!

We very much enjoyed our stay in this beautiful, somewhat remote, villa with amazing surroundings. We walked down to the river, did yoga on the patio and had Ayurvedic treatments next door. The owner is a charming person with a beautiful vision for the place. He was very friendly and took time out to show us around the garden and let us try fresh herbs and spices. I would recommend to have a car so that you can get to Kandy and visit all beautiful and inspiring sights the area has to offer.

We were a group of 19 people of which 11 children and we all had a great time. The big house is stylish and comfortable, in a very natural and quiet environment, surrounded by forest, hills and tea plantations. Great staff, very welcoming and helping, and excellent food !

It is really amazing relaxing place far from noisy road. The room with full-length windows is amazing! View of the jungle and rice field. Also the room was clean and all we need was there. Pool is nice! The host Sakula is very attentive and caring! You can contact him with any questions. He is also interesting person to talk with. His family and staff are very kind too! So we felt like home! I would like to recommend Sakula’s place everybody!

We really loved to stay here! Very nice people and the host can arrange everything you need. Delicious food and if you want to go on excursion I recommend you book it via the hideout. The tuk tuk driver and the jeep Safari driver they arranged for us were very friendly, helpful and had good knowledge.

Amazing room, spectacular views and delicious breakfast. Hariharan and the staff are great. you will always find them smiling. the resort is heaven for couples.

Our stay at Somaland was an incredible experience! We were treated like royalty yet felt completely relaxed and like at home. The colonial mansion is very beautiful. Impeccably preserved and kept, luxurious and comfortable, it’s huge and full of exquisite furnishings. Such a rare opportunity to be able to stay in such a magnificent residence with such history, surrounded by peaceful gardens and lush landscape. Our trip was only enhanced by the divine attention and service of Nilani and Gamage. They welcomed us into the home and looked after us like special family members. So thoughtful and kind and fun. Highly recommended for anyone looking for an extraordinary and wonderful experience. Pieter the host was incredibly helpful and attentive with many extra tips along the way. Thanks so much for sharing your wonderful property!

Amazing place! A running tea plantation from the 1900s, located 1hr away from Kandy. Great base to explore the tea region.
