Matara holiday lettings

We all loved it , Taranga was so helpful and nothing was to much trouble Thank you all

The Reef House was absolutely perfect for our family. Siri the chef cooked well up to good restaurant standard and went to the market to get fresh locally sourced food. Chattu looked after the cleaning, bed making and putting out the sun beds etc. There was a great little bar 15ft from the gate that made great cocktails and we also had our breakfast there although Siri would have done it. The people were so friendly and there were Tuk Tuks about 100 yards away. We snorkelled with the turtles and the driver (Ajith) was always on hand to take you anywhere ( Galle and Tea plantation) as well as dropping us back to the airport. Would definitely recommend and we will be going back.

For those with high expectations and experience of various places across the world, then Cinnamon House will quench your thirst for a high-end, luxurious holiday. We have stayed in a similar house (designed by the same architect) in Lamu in Kenya but this house won hands down with its ideal location and amazing staff. It’s basically your own boutique hotel, right on the doorstep of a private beach which you can surf from, or 10 minutes in a tuk tuk from main Weligama beach where easier surf is and more eating places. The staff did absolutely everything for us when we asked. They did our food shopping, ordered tuk tuks and taxis, kept the house immaculate, prepared our bedrooms every morning and night and generally made sure that we had the most wonderful holiday. Jianyha is the main man running the house and he was wonderful. Calm and in control, friendly with a very high level of professionalism. The chef prepared us the most delicious foods from local curries to even the best spag bol the kids had ever had! There were 8 of us and the villa was huge and spacious so no one ever felt cramped. In fact it’s easy to lose yourself in the villa. The pool area is designed as it’s shaded most of the day which was perfect in the searing heat and the sea breeze cools everything done. Little things that made all the difference to us was: comfy beds with great pillows, beds prepared at night with a different display of flowers or towel design every night, amazing views, air con, outstanding staff, meals when we wanted. But to sum it up, Heena and the house staff made the stay at this wonderful and unique place, like no other holiday. I would impress upon anyone to choose this villa and this location. It really was out of this world.
