Vacation rentals in Ilukmodara

We stayed for 2 nights at Kingsman House in Kandy and had a wonderful time. Though we checked in late at night, the manager (Max) was ready to receive us. The villa is lovely with 8 bedrooms which can accomodate a large group of upto 18 people. There are good sitting areas outside which people can enjoy in Kandy's lovely weather. Would heartily recommend this place especially for large groups. Special thanks for Max for attending to our every need and query.

We stayed for a couple of days up the hill at Dilrukshi’s place. She had a kind family and we had the most amazing breakfast with her mum a couple of times. The room are nice and the beds are good. The hill is walking distance from the viewpoint but it still feels very serene, since it is at the very top of the hill. Dilrukshi is very good with kids too, our youngest one fell in love I think.

We loved staying so close to nature! We spend almost two weeks here. It’s situated right on the edge of the Udawatta sanctuary, so monkeys visited us quite a few times which was nice to see! It’s not far from the city but when we went food shopping we took the tuktuk back and it cost us around 200 LKR. So if you want something private, calm but also walkable to the centre, this is it. Just mind that it’s close to the forrest and not much light goes in through the trees. But on the other hand the temperature in the apartment was nice due to the location. There’s no need for AC but there’s a fan if you need it. The kitchen has some amenities like rice cooker and smoothie maker. But it could maybe use a bit more cutlery like a new wooden spoon, but things like pan and pots were really good. The WiFi was perfect, no problem with that.

We had a wonderful stay at Pubudu 's place . Our caretaker - Bala made every effort to provide us a comfortable and relaxing stay. He is well aware about his boundaries and knows when we need our privacy and his assistance. The accommodation is located in a hilltop with a great view . If you wish to stay there, take everything with you since the nearest township is located at the downhills.

The most beautiful experience at this villa. Incredible views from the terrace and pool. Justin (the chef) and Nessan (the housekeeper) were incredibly attentive and couldn’t have done more for us. They were aware we were staying over the new year holiday when shops would be shut so had stocked up on alcohol and supplies! Perfect for a big group. Very remote location (45 minutes from Kandy centre) but they have a tuk tuk to take you to the closest town (5 minutes away) for any necessities. All of our meals were cooked by the chef-very reasonable and so delicious! Highly recommend this villa.

My stay was absolutely fantastic! The property is nestled in a beautiful hill station, surrounded by stunning views that made my trip unforgettable. The space was clean, cozy, and exactly as described, with all the amenities needed for a comfortable stay. Host was incredibly welcoming and responsive, providing excellent local tips that made exploring the area even more enjoyable. Waking up to the serene landscape each morning was a highlight of my trip. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a peaceful retreat in nature. Can’t wait to come again.

we had a lovely stay with Martin and Rani! they are both so adorable and helpful and sweet and lovely, gorgeous location and delicious food. thank you so much

This place is ideal if you want a break from the city. The caretaker-cum-cook, Udaya, is very efficient and helpful. He has joined here quite recently but you wouldn't know it given his familiarity with the place and his way of handling any requests. The hosts are extremely helpful and responsive. Although Rajeev was travelling abroad and Sharmini was in Colombo, they kept in touch over with us to ensure we were comfortable. Kandy is about 30 minutes away. The last kilometre or so of the road to get here is very narrow but the road quality is good (there *is* a rough stretch just before the property but it is barely 100 metres). We had a power cut on our last day there that lasted for a long time. (This is apparently unusual, and it is true we didn't face any disruption during the earlier two days we were there.) While it was inconvenient, the emergency lights that are there in each bedroom helped a lot. Udaya whipped up a full dinner for us despite the power cut.
