Coconut Grove

Details

This is a lovely traditional country house that has been beautifully restored with some modern touches. It is located near to the fishing village of Ahangama famous for its stilt fishermen, and about 30 mins from the historic town of Galle.

The house now boasts a polished terrazo floor that reflects the light at all angles and has 4 ensuite bedrooms, all with air conditioning. The bathroms in three of the bedrooms have openair showers so if showering under the stars ticks a romanitc box on your boulevard then you will love this.

In fact we have to say the whole house has a romantic feeling to it. It is warm , inviting, friendly and welcoming. The staff here are never without a fabulous genuine smile that is infectious.

The blue tiled pool contrasts with the lush green of the garden and has an infiniti edge at one end giving the feeling of looking over a water fall. Large sun loungers and a pool pavilion mean that you do not have far to walk if the heat of the baking sun gets too much.

Whilst Coconut Grove is not on the beach it is very close to fabulous beaches and there are a never ending supply of tuk tuks that will ferry you around. But anyway everyone goes to the beach where as this house, with its tropical garden, is something different.

Given 4/5 by Lindsay Taylor from Namibia

We enjoyed our holiday very much. The accomodation was very comfortable and the staff were great. We were particularly happy that we decided to employ the chef.
We found the villa to be very well positioned for trips to both the beaches and Galle and of course the surf spots!
We had a few problems with the air conditioning and despite Kumadu's best efforts they were never really resolved i.e you either had to sleep in a fridge or an oven.

Given 5/5 by Eduardo from Spain

Excellent location, paradise place, beautiful house and probably the best was the help: nice and competent.

We spent some glorious days there. Too few, unfortunately. It was so pleasant that we actually stayed in the house and by the pool much more than expected.

We had a fantastic 4 night stay at Coconut Grove, the villa was fantastic. The facilities were great, beautiful pool and garden. We were taken care of very well by Kumudu and Sharath, Kumudu's cooking was so good and she was very helpful with our two small children. Thank you for making our stay so comfortable and we have already recommended the villa and your website to our friends.

Beautiful, peaceful and very private villa away from busy main road. Gorgeous pool and outdoor area. Friendly and helpful staff, wonderful curries!

Definately 5 star. We had a fabulous holiday at Coconut Grove, a stunning villa beautifully decorated and furnished, and we were well looked after by Sarath and Kumudu whose wonderful curries we are definately missing now we are back home. I can't think of anything that would improve Coconut Grove Kumudu even helped us find a driver of a van (Sarath) who drove us around over our weeks stay. We would definately like to return and recommend Coconut Grove highly.

Given 3/5 by Sarah Robinson from Hong Kong

Villa was nice but thought the layout wasn't too good…..better if outside diding was not so tucked away and overlooked pool or something. Staff were helpful but it was confusing when trying to book taxis, tuk tuk and massages as they gave us quotes that were too high and wrong information (i.e. we couldn't get a massage in the villa….which we could and did). Mosquitos were a real nightmare especially with a little one.

Over all rating 3

Thanks

We had a fabulous time at Coconut Grove Villa. The house, gardens and pool area were beautiful and Kumudu and staff could not do enough for us. Of course Kumudu`s cooking was brilliant and we loved every meal. We will definately return. rating 5

I stayed at the CG for 6 nights with a group including young children. We were very pleased with the villa, the overall standard, the location. The staff was excellent.

Given 4/5 by Eva Rajah from Switzerland

Moving in from busy and noisy Colombo we really enjoyed the calm and relaxing atmosphere of the villa. Garden and pool are so well kept one doesn't want to leave the house. Most enjoyable was Kumudus and Thanujas cooking - that alone makes us want to come back.

Given 4/5 by John Lambert from the United Kingdom

The house was faultless. Clean, well maintained, spacious and in a great location. Komudu, the house lady, is the most wonderful cook and so attentive, preparing wonderful breakfasts and dinners so economically and on time. It was as much a pleasure to eat in as to eat out. The gardens are wonderful, carefully maintained with an abundance of wildlife in the trees above.
Her son is a keen cricketer and good company if you have young children. Overall the house is the perfect size for four adults and four children, ie. two families as was our case.
There was just one issue and that concerned the pool. The area around the pool, sun loungers and raised lounging area with cushions, was perfect for pre-breakfast coffee and evening relaxation before dinner. However, the tiles around the edge of the pool and on the steps were all chipped leaving sharp edges that did cut feet and hands, to the point of having to wear socks. If this was remedied the house would score the perfect five stars.

Eden Villas
Dear John, Many thanks for the review and for bringing the pool tiles to our attention. It is not often easy to appreciate there are sharp edges until you get cut so I am really sorry this happened. We are draining the pool as I write this to get them fixed before our next guests. Thank you again and many apologies. Regards Jack
