10 Top-Rated Villas in Kandy, Kandy District, Central Province

May 13, 2023 Marlin Saiz

Rising around a scenic lake, UNESCO-listed Kandy is home to sacred landmarks, landscaped gardens, and cultural museums. Beyond the city, a cloudy forest and tropical plantations roll across the mountain slopes providing plenty of hiking and wildlife-watching opportunities, while upscale resorts line the Mahaweli River.

Hosts was very accommodating when there was a curfew on. Cooked good food and looked after us well! Easy walk to the temple and getting tuk tuk was easy to and from the place. Bedroom was big and spacious.

Beautiful spot on the top

Reviewed By mir-slava05

Our family stayed in this villa for few days while exploring Kandy city. We had one triple room what was enough for us ( 2 adults and 2 kids) but if you your family need more day to stay I would recommend then few rooms to feel and have more space. Breakfast was tasty, fresh with variety of drinks (tea, coffee, fresh juice) and fruits. We couldn't finish all. The Kandyan villa is located on the top, definitely you need a car or tuk-tuk to reach it. The view worth it. Was very pleasant and warm welcoming stay there. Even we arrived late evening they helped us to arrange tuk-tuk, found place where we can eat, waited for us there and dropped us back to villa. Thank you so much for your hospitality. All staff are awesome. Special thank you to Manoj, Malith, Aberyrathana, Thilina, Upali and Raqu)) Some time in the evening was power cut for an hour. But at 9pm light is on again. Even they are providing quite strong lamp-flash. Another think we had all day tour, so back after 9 and didn't face this issue. Sure this is temporary issue due to political situation. Absolutely recommended

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Sky Pavilion! The staff (especially Priyantha) were incredibly kind and went out of their way to make our experience in Kandy special - they had amazing recommendations for the local area - and also made our time at Sky Pavilion so memorable. All meals we had at Sky Pavilion were delicious, in particular, I highly recommend doing a candle lit dinner on the top floor balcony, we enjoyed dinner while watching the sun go down with stunning views as far as the eye can see. The rooms and common areas are lovely, our room even had little star lights built into the ceiling, which at night made it look like you’re staring into the starry night sky. Highly recommend!

Orchid Villa Kandy

Lovely chilled, beautiful rooms and great pool in the sun!

Reviewed By scarlett o

We had a great first two nights here from colombo to kandy. It’s a short tuk tuk into town to get to the shops / atm etc but it’s so peaceful and the pool was gorgeous and just what we needed after a long journey from the UK. The people working there are so lonely and attentive and very friendly. Would highly recommend!

Tree Breeze Inn

***SPECIAL OFF SEASON RATE*** *** FREE HEARTY BREAKFAST *** *** FREE HIGH SPEED WIFI *** *** Private balcony for each room *** *** Price includes entire house*** *** Free transport shuttle inside Kandy city limits *** (This how I promote rental cars and van) *** FREE guest pick up from the Train Station Kandy *** We are located in a posh, tranquil nature surrounded area just 1.5 km from the Kandy city center. It is ideal to relax and let time pass by while watching nature. Rooms have comfortable beds, extra fresh linen, attached toilet with hot water, a fan, WIFI and other room accessories. Guests can utilize the shared kitchen area to prepare hot meals and snacks. Laundry services are offered and housekeeping is provided daily. For convenience, airport transfers can be arranged for reasonable cost. The entire property is accessible with the kitchen, living room, dining area, free parking area. Driver’s quarters upon request. Why choose us! At Tree Breeze Inn we take extra care of guests without any additional costs. Our motto is to provide everything what the guest desire. We believe that when you are far away from your home, there is need for more than just accommodation. As a hospitality service provider we would go above and beyond to make your travel dream come true. In order for us to have an innovative competitive edge, I came up with the idea of an unlimited free shuttle service absolutely free of charge. We would drive around the city limits absolutely free of charge. The Kandy’s attentions are spread out, and; thereby, it is difficult to cover the entire terrain of Kandy without a personal vehicle. Most importantly you save money while traveling inside town. Typical travel guide books tell you the popular attritions that usually cost hefty entrance fees. I believe there is much to see in Kandy that is absolutely free. That is why we provide a free house phone for unlimited local calling. Our staff is well aware of a wealth of first hand tourist information that would make your stay in Kandy the most pleasurable travel experience.

Home Away From Home

Reviewed By ennajea

I recently spent 4 nights at Villa Tranquil with my husband and it truly was a lovely place, close enough to Kandy town while also secluded and peaceful. Niragi was an amazing host. She went out of her way to help with directions, transport and even an unexpected doctor's appointment. I really enjoyed my morning meals at the breakfast bar, followed by a relaxing read on the swing out on the balcony, surrounded by so much natural beauty and a stunning view. I would love to return jere for another stay and highly recommend it to others. One tip: come via the main road because Google maps took me on an impossible route on the first day.
