Superb

From arrival to departure our stay was perfect. Indra, Kumara and Ameera are very special people. The home, garden, pool, just everything about this place is wonderful. I cannot praise it highly enough. Thank you for making a holiday so memorable. Loved it.

Such a WOW in every respect, Villa Olu will always now be the place we stay when in Sri Lanka!

From the second we arrived at the gates we knew our expectations from the online information were going to be fulfilled; from the first few minutes inside we knew our expectations were in fact going to be exceeded! All rooms inside have something special about them whilst in-keeping with Sri Lankan style. The staff are great and attentive without being intrusive. I can't get my favourite thing about Villa Olu down to a single favourite so instead must go with my top five which are dining with an ocean view beyond the infinity edge pool, relaxing in the sun pavilion, cooling down in the infinity edge pool, the master bedroom and being away from it all yet only minutes away from all which the Galle area of Sri Lankan life has to offer! We are already planning to return later this year so naturally we would recommend not merely considering a stay at Vila Olu but getting one booked!

Taste of Paradise at Villa Olu

From the moment you drive through the gates of Villa Olu you know that you have made the right choice. We are a family group of 2 Grandparents; Mum and Dad; two children 15 and 12. The villa was paradise for us we had everything we needed and more. Indera, Amera and Kumara greet you as honoured guests. Their service throughout was top rate they took care of every request with a smile. Indera was a treasure the meals he cooked were better than the restaurants in Galle. Sri Lankan Curry; Spring Rolls; Lemon Chicken these are just a few of the dishes he cooks from scratch. We barely ate out, I must not forget the wonderful start to the day Sri Lankan Breakfast Fresh Fruits and Omelette always served with a smile by Kumara.. The ambience of the villa is that of a small boutique hotel you experience the same standards of luxury and service nothing is too much trouble. Friends have commented that it looks like paradise and it was!

Wunderschöne Villa an traumhafter Lage mit sehr freundlichem und kompetenten Personal

Das Haus ist sehr geschmackvoll eingerichtet und sehr gut ausgestattet. Die Lage direkt am Meer mit Blick auf den Sonnenuntergang ist einmalig schön. Das Personal kümmerst sich sehr aufmerksam um Haus, Garten, Pool und das leibliche Wohlergehen und versucht jeden Gästewunsch zu erfüllen. (Kumaras Künste im Serviettenfalten sind unglaublich!) Wir haben uns rundum wohlgefühlt und würden das Haus bei einem erneuten Sri Lanka Aufenthalt auf jeden Fall wieder mieten.

Absolute luxury and privacy

Villa Olu is an absolute dream to stay in and we truly struggled to leave this place. Designed for modern and comfortable living and to capture the amazing outlook to the ocean. The villa staff (Indra & Kumara) looked after every detail and nothing was too difficult. They cooked delicious meals showcasing various Sri Lankan dishes and ingredients. They also cooked the occasional western dish to change it up for the kids. The villa layout with bedrooms upstairs and all the living areas downstairs worked great. Bedrooms are all separate and private and have great ensuites including both inside and outside showers. The villa also had more than enough separate spaces for people to enjoy peace and quiet (living area, bedrooms, front garden, terrace, pool area, beach pagoda, etc). We walked the short distance around the cove (5 mins) to swim outside the Amari hotel in a protected area of the beach. Hope to get back to Villa Olu!

Simply beautiful!

This villa is absolutely stunning! The rooms are spacious, clean and beautifully decorated. The facilities are superb making this a home from home, although I wish my house had a private pool and four poster beds! The views of the ocean are incredible too and we especially enjoyed staying up, sitting on the balcony and watching the sun set over the ocean. Exquisite! Indera the housekeeper was lovely, making sure we felt at home and prepared the perfect breakfast for us each day. He was a great help with local knowledge too as there is so much to see and do around Galle... Although we could barely tear ourselves away from the villa. Overall we loved our stay and would urge anyone to go and see for yourselves just how beautiful Villa Olu is.

Gorgeous villa and fabulous service!

A beautiful location, attentive staff, and an amazing house. Our group of seven stayed at this beautiful villa near Galle Fort for five nights at the end of September 2015. We made a late booking through ownersdirect.com and found the owner, Mark, to be nothing but helpful with quick replies to our questions and an honest representation of what to expect at Villa Olu. We were helped to arrange an airport transfer which was waiting for us on arrival and was both air-conditioned and comfortable (a must-have in the Sri Lankan humidity). On arrival at the villa, we were delighted to realise that it was exactly as gorgeous as the photos on this website made it seem. The four bedrooms were equally lovely with plenty of room to unpack for our short stay, water provided, and exceptionally clean. After being brought fresh juice while enjoying the view from the cabana near the beach, the wonderful housekeeper Indra asked us what we would like to eat for the duration of our stay. The two members of staff were excellent during our stay; breakfast, lunch, and dinner were prepared by the staff to our wishes and were delicious every day. A particular highlight for us was the traditional Sri Lankan breakfast that Indra prepared and the Sri Lankan prawn curry which we loved so much we had twice! While the staff were attentive and we barely had to ask for anything we wanted before they brought it, they were also discreet and we felt like we were left alone to enjoy ourselves. A big plus for our group was that Indra was happy to do all the shopping for us including a quick trip for more beer on the first afternoon. Our favourite area was the outdoor seating area where we were able to play our music through the inbuilt speaker while enjoying the sunset and the wonderful view. Overall, highly recommended for couples, families, and groups of friends for a relaxing getaway. We enjoyed ourselves immensely and are already planning our next visit.
