Peak of Colombo
The apartment is in a perfect location. Walking distance to 2 supermarkets, shopping mall, the bakery and restaurant, etc. Nice view from a window of Colombo city.

Luxe CL
This is probably one of the most beautiful and highest quality apartments in all of Colombo. We have been coming to Sri Lanka since 2015 and have stayed in many places. Nicola's attention to detail and quality is unmistakable. If you have discerning taste and want a place that is artful, clean and full with high end decor and appliances this is the place. It costs more than many apartments but it's well worth it. The location is great! Within walking distance to excellent restaurants at Cinnamon Life Hotel, a grocery and a fabulous mall. It's also an easy walk to a nice beach.

Aquaria 2 Bedroom
I had a wonderful stay at the Airbnb apartment in Aquria, Nawala. The place was spotless, modern, and had everything I needed for a comfortable visit. It’s in a peaceful location but still close to shops and restaurants. The host was friendly and responsive throughout. My only hiccup was with one security guard—short guy with sunglasses—who seemed to forget I was staying there and gave me a bit of a challenge getting in a few times. All part of the adventure, I suppose! Still, I’d definitely recommend this place and would happily stay again. Thanks to Seth and team for everything! 😊

Deep Blue Colombo Seaside Luxury Apartment
For the dehiwala apartment review : The apartment was clean and well presented. We enjoyed watching the sunset each evening from the balconies which all have an ocean view. The location was great, the bedrooms and aircon comfortable and the bathrooms were clean & fresh. The hosts were responsive and flexible giving us a late check-out as there was no booking after us. The assistant organised for check-in and check-in was easy to liaise with.

Lotus Tower & Harbour View Apartment @ On320
We had a fantastic stay at Tash’s place. The apartment is beautiful, spacious and has very comfy beds. The view from the balcony is even more impressive in person. We enjoyed sunbathing and using the pool on floor 6. Tash relplied to our messages quickly, was very helpful and left clear and precise check in instruction. She also very kindly allowed us to have a late check out. Thanks so much Tash!😊🙏

Sea La Vie Colombo
I had a wonderful stay at this apartment! It was very clean and exactly like the pictures, no surprises at all.

I would definitely recommend this place and would love to stay here again.

Lake Cottage Nawala
This house is a hidden gem in Colombo. It’s very tasteful and well furnished, with an incredible backyard overlooking the water. We didn’t feel like leaving the home. The hosts were very welcoming and helpful. Would definitely recommend!

Kaluganga Holiday Home
Wow, what a fantastic place! I loved it so much.

Bolgoda Grand - Luxury by the Lake
Very spacious villa with a great view. The pool was amazing.

LakeView
Lake view is an amazing structure with perfect surroundings. It is very central and though very private. We have spent a couple of great days in the structure and had the feeling of being in our private villa with a lot of freedom, space, design and commodities. We will book Lake view for sure again. Thanks a lot to the owner, Prasanna, for the great hospitality.

Villa199 @ Millennium City JaEla - 10km to Airport
This was a hidden gem for sure and glad we found it . Looking for a place close to the airport to unwind and prepare for our next flight we booked into this beautiful place. The experience from the get go was pleasant . The host was very responsive and accommodated our requests . What we loved the most about this place is the quaint surroundings and the beautiful green patches with lakes inside this gated community . It was very private and peaceful. We enjoyed our evening walks and the accommodation itself was well equipped and very comfortable. Thanks once again to the host for the help in making our stay memorable. Highly recommend this place and the host . Cheers

Villa by the Lake Bolgoda, Moratuwa - Colombo
One of our best holidays . The place was so peaceful and beautiful. The host Isuri and caretaker Shelton are really nice and helpful. We had a very relaxing weekend with our friends. This is really a hidden gem in the busy town of Moratuwa . Thank you !

Iconic Home Stays 28th Floor, Iconic Galaxy.
Our stay was just perfect and as we wanted it to be. Niresh, the host was extremely helpful in getting whatever we needed (including a few utensils for kitchen ;)). The host was there to welcome us and showed us the house. Being on 28th floor, the view was superb the skyline of Colombo city was visible and so was the water front. The location was perfect with many restaurants and supermarkets near by at walking distance. The amenities were just as shown in the pics and we enjoyed most of it. A perfect place to stay if you want to be in the heart of the city and still want to be a peaceful place 😊

Spark Bridge-Colombo, an artist-designed condo
Located in the heart of the city, walking distance to Colombo city centre shopping mall, bakery and a super store. The master bedroom gives almost 180 degree paraomic views of the city , the lake and the sea. Well curated interior designs gives a grand guesture . The host Chathura is very responsive and flexible. I'd love to come back and no hesitation to recommend this place for any guests looking for a luxury apartment in Colombo city centre.

Cinnamon Life - Residencies, Colombo
Myself and my family had a great time at Sanjeewa's place. It was a nicely decorated modern luxury apartment with breathtaking views of the beautiful skyline and the lake. The place had all the amenities required. Sanjeewa was a friendly host very easy to communicate with. I highly recommend Sanjeewa's place to all guests who are looking for a homely peaceful place in the city center of Colombo.

Apartment-by-the Sea
Ich war mit meiner Freundin für 4 Wochen in dieser Unterkunft und wir haben uns sehr wohlgefühlt und würden jederzeit wiederkommen. Wir fanden die Wohnung noch größer, als sie auf den Fotos rüberkam. Bei Fragen war Chitranganie immer zu erreichen und antwortete sehr schnell. Die Lage der Wohnung ist mit ein paar Schritten vom Strand perfekt. Zusätzlich ist die Wohnung mit allem ausgestattet, was man benötigt. Wir können die Wohnung auf jeden Fall empfehlen.
