This review has been long overdue, we were here exactly 1 year ago when Covid19 struck. As it was a sudden outbreak worldwide, my family and I were unable to fly home as all airports and borders were shut. What started off as a week holiday stretched to almost a month.
I had chosen to stay at Sayura based on the good reviews, its rates and the strategic location. It's a stone's throw away from the beautiful beach and also the Wellawate town centre. I must emphasise the service rendered during our stay was impeccable.
During the tumultuous time, Sayura had become our refuge. They did not hesitate to accommodate us for the unknow duration when most hotels in the city were not accepting foreign guests. We were taken good care off, provided with full board accommodation even when the imposed curfew nationwide had led to limited resources.
They were very warm & understanding, checking on us regularly which kept us "sane" during the uncertainty. I cannot begin to express what these small acts of kindness meant to us. These people went way out to ensure we were comfortable.
Finally when we were able to fly home we left with a heavy heart but glad to have met good souls!
As a frequent traveler to Sri Lanka I looked for accommodation that suited my finances and needs like location, cleanliness security and hospitality, I found it all at the Villa. i have stayed there on many occasions on my own and on a couple of occasions with my daughter. We found the manager a Mister James Dines a very friendly and helpful person and the staff likewise. My congratulations and good wishes go out to them. Dimitri
Beautiful villa, so clean and well maintained! We were a group of 7 friends who stayed and we had a great time.
They have pans and a stove along with utensils available in the villas, in case you want to cook.
Basic toiletries available like shower gel and shampoo. No toothpaste and brush thou.
Not that far from the main road, there is a super market quite close by to pick up stuff.
The house keeping comes and cleans the villa once in a day.
