Holiday rentals with lake access in Unawatuna

The owner was very kind and we had a comfortable stay. Plenty of kitchen utensils, spacious and clean living room and bedroom. Located in a quiet residential area, it is possible to walk to the town and the beach.

Madu’s place was fantastic—peaceful, quiet, and perfect for a relaxing stay. The house is fully private, with its own kitchen and bathroom, offering great comfort and independence. The host, Madu, is incredibly communicative and helpful. Whether you have questions or need assistance, he’s always reachable, either in person or via phone. One thing to keep in mind: if you want to be close to the city center, it’s about a 20–30 minute walk, as the house is situated near the second river up north. However, this also means you get to enjoy a quiet, secluded space with almost no neighbours. (bonus: you get to see some fireflies at night) If you have a scooter, getting around won’t be an issue at all!

We had a fantastic two weeks here. It’s in an idyllic spot very quiet but walkable to all the bars and shops The apartment was fabulous, great living space , comfortable beds and lovely showers. AC worked perfectly and kept us all cool. Would thoroughly recommend.

Such a beautiful and peaceful getaway place. Definitely recommend!

Lahiru and his family were amazing hosts and so kind to us! They moved over our bags from their other property (shady cottage) while we were away for the day and even came to help us when we ran out of gas on our bike. They were so friendly and we felt right at home. It’s a beautiful peaceful location that is still close to ahanagama and kabalana beach which has lots of restaurants, surfing, bars. You can rent a bike so you can get around easily. Thank you for everything you did for our stay! :)

We booked super last minute, but they still hosted us so beautifully and made everything feel effortless! So warm, welcoming, and accommodating truly grateful for the lovely experience. Highly recommend!

Good location, supernice host, sweet rabbits on the territory of the villa. Hope, the description of one room will be updated soon, cause it differs from the reality :) Also be ready for some extra charges (for example electricity bills, if you need to use ACs.) It was great, that power generator appeared at the end of our staying. It’s a real blessing, when electricity is cut off!

We had such a wonderful stay! It is probably one of the best experiences we have had with Airbnb so far. The hosts Gayana and Priti Kumar are extremely friendly and caring hosts, who make you feel at home immediately. They will take care of any needs that you have and are always available. The home has everything you need for a long-term stay and is in a more quiet area away from any busy areas. There is beautiful nature and many exotic animals to observe. I can highly recommend staying there if you are looking for a peaceful place a little outside of Galle.

apartment is very Peaceful and sea beach very near also shopping centre you can walk by yourself . garden very clean and beautiful. our family spend very nice time together at the apartment. Specially with papa everything is best There was a lake just next to the garden. Highly recommend. we will come back again soon.

The grandparents of the host live downstairs and they were really lovely and tried to help us where they could. They provided an extra mattress for our 3 year old and drove us for a small fee with their tuktuk. The beach is near and there is a lovely bar with lovely poeple the ocean freedom Restaurant, if you stay here you should go there - if you do, say hi from us.

This incredible property, which is absolutely as described and photographed, delighted us every day! Nishantha and his family are incredibly attentive and helpful, we are very excited to meet them, thank you for your hospitality. We had at our disposal a beautiful house with a private and well-maintained territory, a swimming pool overlooking the lake. A separate area for BBQ, in the evening beautiful lighting turns on, in the form of light bulbs, there was a feeling of some kind of holiday. The fauna in Sri Lanka, in general is very rich, and in this villa we saw lizards, a peacock came to visit, many chipmunks and beautiful birds. I am absolutely sure that by choosing this place - you will not regret anything.

We had a wonderful stay! It was one of the most beautiful accommodations we had in Sri Lanka. Spotlessly clean and new, good air conditioning and what we liked best: A really nice quiet and private location. We were able to watch monkeys, birds and squirrels from the balcony. You are in the middle of nature and it is so relaxing 🥰 We were able to park our tuktuk in the yard and check in and out flexibly. The hosts are a family who live in the house next door and they are all so friendly and accommodating while giving us our privacy. We can't highly recommend it and would stay here again anytime. Thanks Rashmi ❤️

This was our favorite stay so far in 6 weeks in Sri Lanka. Location is absolutely stunning in nature with an incredible patio overlooking the lake. We saw so many animals while sitting out there. The house itself is brand new and perfectly clean and super comfortable. This is a great long term option. It is further from the center of Weligama, which I personally loved because you’re out of the noise and bustle of the city but still a quick tuk tuk or scooter ride into town. The staff onsite are extremely kind of welcoming and are available to help all the time. Would 100% recommend this property!!

We enjoyed our stay at nomads it’s a beautiful place away from the busy town

Had a good time, exactly what you would expect from a Airbnb in Sri Lanka for the price:) Thx for hosting me.

Our stay at Pramod's place with my family was fantastic! He is truly an incredible host, always attentive to our needs and ready to help with anything we required. His kindness and generosity exceeded all expectations, from assisting with our late check-in due to a delayed flight to helping us organize various trips around the area. The apartment is fantastic, always clean and located in a convenient area for any interest. I highly recommend staying with him so an unique experience !
