Pet-friendly vacation rentals in Matara

Vi hadde et flott opphold hos Marco og vennen hans. Vi ble godt tatt imot av Sajeeva, som var veldig gjestfri. Han ga oss fine tips og var alltid i nærheten dersom det skulle være noe. Rommene var flotte, og interiøret var veldig gjennomført. Barna elsket stedet og følte seg veldig trygge. Det beste med oppholdet var at vi bidro til det flotte prosjektet de driver. Jeg synes det er helt fantastisk at de gir barn muligheten til å gå på skole. Jeg kommer helt klart tilbake og ønsker å følge med på utviklingen av skolen og den nye kaféen. Jeg håper dere setter opp en innsamlingsaksjon hvor folk kan bidra. Takk for oss😊

We had a very comfortable stay only 5 min walk away from the stunning Hiriketiya beach. Strongly recommend getting breakfast from the hosts it is delicious and authentic for an unbeatable price. Thank you again for the hospitality, we felt very welcome.

Мы провели в этом доме целый месяц и остались в восторге! Просторный, уютный, с прекрасной чилл-зоной у реки, где можно расслабиться и насладиться природой. Особенно понравилась крыша – идеальное место для занятий йогой. Кухня полностью оборудована, так что готовить было удобно. Кровати в спальнях комфортные, спалось отлично. До пляжа всего 5-7 минут пешком, а до серф-спота в Велигаме – около 25 минут. В целом, это был замечательный опыт, и мы благодарны хозяевам за гостеприимство!

I recently had the pleasure of staying at an Airbnb hosted by Ruwan, and it was a delightful experience. Ruwan was an extremely warm and welcoming host, making us feel at home from the moment we arrived. The location was fantastic, within walking distance to both the beach and Coconut Tree Hill. The lush green property felt almost like staying in a forest, offering a serene environment. The breakfast provided was very good, with a variety of delicious options. The room was a bit small, but it didn't affect our comfort during the stay. Additionally, Ruwan offers to help plan activities in and around Mirissa, which could add a lot of value to your trip. Despite the minor detail about the room size, the stay had its positive aspects, particularly Ruwan's hospitality, the excellent breakfast, and the beautiful surroundings. This Airbnb is a great choice for travelers looking for a welcoming host and a beautiful location.

We really enjoyed our days in the beautiful house and garden! We loved the space! Only 10 minute walk to the beach and the restaurants but far enough to enjoy the peacefulness of the beautiful garden. Rebecca and here hostess were really flexibel and friendly/ The barking/ protective dogs of the neighbours were scary in the beginning but it turned out the they don’t to anything if you just ignore them.

This was our favorite guest house during our two months in Sri Lanka, it is clean, spacious, kitchen is well equipped for cooking and the garden is beautiful (our 3 year old loved it), also Prageeth is a great and kind host. We stayed at Prageeth's place for almost two weeks and didnt want to leave. Yes, Mirissa beach is a little far (about 8 minute ride with bus or tuc tuc) but there are also local wild beaches nearby (I also recommend to check out Polhena beach which is same distance as Mirissa beach). Also there is a great restaurant (Zephyr) in about 5 minutes walk which I highly recommend as the food there was delicious. Also a small shop, meat shop, fish and vegetable stands are very close. Overall a highly recommended place.

Darshani's and Lucky's home is just amazing, we spent so goo time there! First of all, it is an entire floor (which is huge!) with your own private gate. The floor has a really big free space : wonderful chill zone with a lot of sofas, nice bedroom with a/c, bathroom and your own kitchen with all you need for daily cooking. There is also a dining table which is great as a workplace as well. In the living room there are some balconies and if you will open the doors you will feel a light cool breeze, so nice! The wi-fi is good for daily work as well. Location is nice, its close to the beach(10 min by bike) where you can swim with turtles. But the most important are hosts - Darshani and Lucky are so kind, caring and lovely. The will help with anything you need and even more! We had a wonderful time in their house and we would stay more, but it was already booked by another people for a several months, so you are lucky if you have an opportunity to book this amazing place.

Ein perfekter Aufenthalt – absolut empfehlenswert! Die Unterkunft war genauso wie auf den Fotos – sauber, gemütlich und liebevoll eingerichtet. Die Lage war ideal, ruhig und dennoch gut angebunden. Besonders gefallen hat mir Zugang zum Strand. Raj war super freundlich, hilfsbereit und immer erreichbar, wenn wir Fragen hatten. Der Check-in verlief reibungslos und unkompliziert. Besonders die beiden Haushälter/innen waren grandios. Die waren so freundlich und haben einen tollen Service angeboten. Vielen Dank nochmal an Mani & Kawshika Ich würde jederzeit wiederkommen und kann diese Unterkunft wärmstens empfehlen – vielen Dank für die tolle Gastfreundschaft!

Stella Beach House was the perfect getaway for my family and me. The location is absolutely stunning, with an array of excellent restaurants nearby. The house itself was impeccably clean, and we thoroughly enjoyed the amazing pool. From the very beginning to the end of our stay, Amit, Chaminda, and their team were incredibly helpful with everything we needed. They prepared delicious meals for us almost every day, which truly enhanced our experience. Overall, we had a fantastic time and would highly recommend Stella Beach Villas to anyone planning a vacation in Sri Lanka. It's a wonderful destination for everyone looking to relax and enjoy a beautiful getaway.

My friend and me were lucky to spend a whole month in this little paradise and we had a wonderful time. The pool is amazing . The garden is magical. By night it turns into a sea of lights . Everybody was very friendly and it really felt like home . We were lucky to spend there a long period though small unpleasantries just melt in the whole sweet experience. Even it’s a calm place place located a little more far away from the town you will here music and co . There was a little construction work going on wich weren’t perfect , but In total I absolutely fell in love with this place and it’s people and their little dog Lolita . Thanks So much !!!

We were so lucky to discover the Coconut Cottage as our first place to stay in Sri Lanka! Andy was an incredible host, booking us transfers from the airport, meeting us at the house on arrival, sharing a wealth of local knowledge and was super friendly and responsive during our stay. The house is only a two minute walk from the beach, cafes and restaurants of Hiri and very clean and stylish – and we all (family of four) loved the pool and back garden (and watching the monkeys swing around in the trees!). Thank you Andy and Sachira for a fab stay! Would highly recommend.

It was such a Nice Place to live! 5 min to Mirissa Beach But still a quiet Place.

Terrene Villa was everything and more. Jalal responded quickly to any queries before arrival and during the booking process. We stayed for two weeks as a family of 4, plus daughter's boyfriend. The villa is stunning and just as described. Sri Lanka is the gift that keeps on giving and Terrene Villa is the perfect place to enjoy it all. Suda and Judi (apologies if I have spelt their names wrong) were a delight and looked after us very well. Their breakfasts were enjoyable and the fresh juices were delicious. The gardens were kept beautifully and what a joy to see monkeys in the trees and on the roof! Viraj sorted all our travel and day trips out and was always quick to reply and make suggestions. We were so sad to leave the villa, it really is an oasis of calm.

Gaia Soul was actually the reason we wanted to go to Sri Lanka. And — (even though we never travel to the same places again) Gaia Soul will be the reason we have to go back. The pool and the skate ramp were so much fun. There are a lot of different hang out zones, so you will always find a comfortable spot. The place is so tidy and clean at all times. The exterior is really nice with the concrete and the orange and pink flowers. The garden areas are taken care og daily. There is a beautiful beach 5 minute walking distance. 
You can order food all day from the neighbour restaurant, that serves delicious traditional Sri Lankan food. (You have to try the curry with coconut sambol and the breakfast pancakes) Sanduni and her team will take care of you from you arrive until departure. We had two morning yoga sessions with Sarka. She is a great yoga teacher. It felt so special to just walk to the open jungle yoga studio in the beautiful wild surroundings. Thank you so much Baxter!

Wow - what a place! It looks exactly like the photos are we had such a beautiful week in this space. There are a tonne of great cafes around and it is close to such a stunning beach. We want to give a special shout out to the cleaner who we had the privilege of seeing everyday. He was so kind, helpful and friendly, and was such a great addition to the space. 10/10 - cannot recommend enough!!

Stayed at this beautiful villa in Ahangama and honestly, it felt like a home away from home. The vibe is so peaceful and welcoming — you can feel the love and thought that’s gone into every corner of the place. The location is perfect, close enough to the beach but still tucked away enough to feel private and serene. The rooms are spacious, clean, and beautifully done up, and the staff made sure we were super comfortable throughout. Waking up here felt like a dream. Highly recommend this gem if you’re visiting Ahangama — can’t wait to be back!

We had an absolutely fantastic stay at Villa Heaven! From the moment we arrived, our host Sandu made us feel incredibly welcome. The house itself is super nice—beautifully designed, spacious, and equipped with everything you could possibly need. What truly made our stay special was the exceptional hospitality. Our hosts took such great care of us, even preparing delicious meals and providing snacks—everything our hearts desired! Their kindness and attention to detail made us feel at home. We would come back in a heartbeat. Highly recommend Villa Heaven to anyone looking for a perfect getaway!

Staying at this Airbnb was truly one of the highlights of my trip to Sri Lanka. The place exceeded all expectations – incredibly clean, peaceful, and perfectly located close to shops and restaurants. The host was exceptionally kind and helpful, making me feel genuinely welcome and cared for. It felt like a little haven of calm, and I can’t recommend it enough. I’ll definitely be staying here again when I return to Sri Lanka!

Had a lovely time in Hirikiya and the Rez really made me feel like home. Was traveling solo and wanted a quiet place to relax and feel safe. The place was super clean and had all essentials needed to cook etc. Very glad this place is not located on the main street since it gets a bit loud at night. However, it is super close to all restaurants and both beaches. There is also Yoga being offered 100m away on a beautiful roof of a hotel that I highly recommend attending.

Vi er svært fornøyd med oppholdet vårt. Leiligheten er romslig, stor og fin. Den har alt man trenger, og er akkurat som på bildene. Særlig behagelig var det med stor terrasse, samt fredelig beliggenhet. Kommunikasjonen med Jula var svært bra, vi fikk hurtig respons, hjelp til å bla. ordne transport videre, samt at vi fikk både tidlig check in og sen check out, som passet oss bra. Ingenting å utsette på leiligheten eller utleier, vi er fornøyd og kommer gjerne tilbake! :)

The house is brilliantly located. 2 mins walk to two great different beaches. One where you can learn to surf and the other where you can swim with turtles and snorkel. Lovely 20 min walk along the beach to Dickwella and tons of beach bars/restaurants. There’s a little shop next door as well that has all the essentials. Inside the house is comfy and clean. Beds are lovely and have mosquito nets and the ACs in both rooms are quiet and work well. Would highly recommend to stay here and will be doing so again if available when we are next back in the area. Hosts are friendly and very responsive. In short, we loved our stay here!

It is a sweet and clean house with beautiful garden. It’s close to ocean and nice restaurants. It has very kind and friendly host. I would like to visit it again.

We had an absolutely fantastic stay at this lovely three-bedroom house near Coconut Tree Hill in Mirissa, highly recommend! From the moment we arrived, we loved the spaciousness and charm of the place. The highlight was the massive veranda – it's the perfect spot to relax and enjoy the shade during the heat of the Sri Lankan day. We spent most of our time there, just soaking in the tranquil atmosphere and relaxing the lush surroundings. The house was impeccably clean, well-maintained, and nicely decorated. Each bedroom and bed is comfortable, making it an ideal retreat after a day of exploring. The location is perfect – just a short walk to Coconut Tree Hill and the stunning beaches of Mirissa. The host and his family were incredibly welcoming and responsive, ensuring that our stay was nothing short of perfect. I can't recommend this place enough! If you're looking for a serene getaway with all the comforts of home and a great place to chill in the heat then this could be it. 5*'s!
