Ingels Beach Villa was a perfect choice for us. The villa, the rooms and the pool are just great and we have great memories about our stay 1 Oct - 15 Oct 2022. The staff is fabulous and Mr Senaka is taking care of everything you need and you ask for. We felt safe and very well taken care of every minute during our stay. The rooms are large with great in-suite bathrooms. The dining area close by the pool and terrace was our preferred location and is outstanding. You get best value for your money. We would love to come back. Bohoma istouti.

Sri Lanka. Once in a lifetime experience! We were a group of 16 people and started our journey throu this beautiful country when we landed in Colombo. From there on the manager Mr. Senaka took good care of us, everything that we needed he provided for us. So on this way "Thank you very much for everything!" When we arrived at the villa the view was breathtaking (the pool, the little garden with the palm tree and...after you open the little gate it's like you open the door to heaven a reddish sandy beach, if you look to right or left it seems that has no end and of course the blue Indian Ocean with it's warm water and waves. The sound of the waves creats an atmosphere which has put us very quickly into a relaxation mode. All the rooms are very spacious with own bathrooms and also very clean, from every room you can see the green garden and the ocean.
Regarding the staff from the villa starting with the manager Mr. Senaka, continuing with the chef and the staff who helped him, the person in charge of the pool, the gardner, the person who cleaned the rooms, the driver from the bus (hope I didn't forget someone), all the staff - the only words that we can say to you all: "THANK YOU VERY MUCH!" All of you made us feel like kings and queens, everything our soul craved, whether it was food or certain places we especially wanted to visit or that we wanted to interact with local people to understand the culture at a deeper level, you did everything possible for us. The food...wow! I usually do not eat spicy, there I tried food that I would not imagine I will put in my mouth, started to like and now back at home I miss the tasty and spicy food. We didn't felt like it was missing something, we had all we desired. So once again to all the staff: "THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING!"
Beautiful country and simple people, understand culture, respect life no matter it's form, a reminder that you don't need much to be happy! Experience SRI LANKA!
THANK YOU!
Wow, thank you so much Henriette this was so beautiful written!!!I´m so glad to read about your experience of our villa and Sri Lanka and it´s culture.I so much hope to see you soon again.Warmest RegardsPer, Helena and all our staff!
We were a family of 14 from 1 year to 75 years old. We had a wonderful fortnight in this beautiful house with a large well maintained pool and the magnificent Indian Ocean right in front of us. The beach is almost desolate, clean with fine sand, and often heavy waves suited for active playing. As a contrast the sound of waves gave us a constant atmosphere of relaxation. All rooms are spacious with own bathroom. The wifi is very good in all rooms and most of the garden. All the staff is kind and helpfull and very service minded helping arranging tours. In periods the government turned off the power to the region. The manager quickly procured a generator for light and a 4G modem. The food is excellent and often locally inspired. The manager was ready to do his best to fulfill special wishes of for example fresh fish, lobster and other. The breakfast is included in the rent and was always with fresh fruits and juice and accompanied of one or more local dishes. A large fridge is available to keep own beverages cool and ice cream and ice cubes frozen.
Thank you so much Yves for this review. This is what the villa was built for!Families of all ages to come together and stay together under the same roof and really have a relaxed vacation.We are so happy that you stayed with us for your special birthday and really explained how it is to stay at Ingels Beach Villa!Please come back, we would love to see you once again in the villa!A warm and big thank you from me, Helena and all our wonderful staff!Kind RegardsPer Ingels
This is a really wonderful and properly built holiday home. All bedrooms have a separate shower and toilet. The bedrooms are equivalent, and have ocean views. The beach is deserted and belongs only to you. In this area, the water is a bit muddy from the sand but it is warm and wonderful. The villa staff tries very hard for you. Contact them with all questions. The villa really has a very good chef, the food is prepared according to your order and specially.
Prices are excellent, believe me, we compared. Agree in advance on the fish of the lobsters shrimp, everything will be ready on time. We really expected much less and got a lot more. An ideal holiday for a good company or for families.
Thank you so much Ilja for your review. We really appreciate you taking this time to write this review.The staff misses you all already and we really hope to see you and your friends again soon. Kind RegardsPer, Helena and all our staff
First of all, we would like to say a massive thank you to all staff at Ingels Beach Villa, but especially to Senaka the villa manager and Per the Villa owner. From the moment we landed in Sri Lanka we were treated with nothing but professionalism and care from all staff. The villa were kind enough to arrange transport for us from the airport back to our location. We were staying at the villa for a very special reason, we were getting married and having our ceremony and reception at the villa. We couldn't have picked a more wonderful location. When we arrived our bags were taken from us and taken straight to our rooms, we were met with a lovely welcome drink and shown around. Due to the reason we were staying we had booked out all of the rooms. All rooms were of a very high standard, extremely clean and equipped with everything we may have needed. Outside the pool and garden area were beautiful, extremely clean and private from the beach. The staff were very helpful, always happy to make us drinks and food if requested, they also helped to arrange transport and days out for us, no job was too big for them. Breakfast, Lunch and dinner was perfect! The chef was brilliant! its safe to say, no one went hungry! During the run up to the wedding Senaka sat down with us and ran though how we wanted our day to go, including drinks, food and the beach set up. He was there on the day and helped to make sure the day was just perfect. Last minute Kyle and myself decided that we would like fireworks for the evening reception, Senaka sorted this straight away and put an amazing display on for us. Kyle and myself personally feel that the Villa is perfectly equipped for a wedding and should be recognised for this, although we had a wedding planner, i feel the villa would be able to plan the most perfect wedding on their own. All we can say is thank you so so much for making our stay so perfect and special.
Wow, thank you so much for this review and the kind words!I´m glad that you took the time to really explain how it is to be a guest in Ingels Beach villa and of course having the most special day in our villa.I know that the wedding was very successsful and Senaka has told me so many nice things about all of you.Please Kyle & Charlotte, come stay with us soon again!Kind RegardsPer, Helena and all our staff
Pers place was better than we expected. To wake up every morning to the sound of the waves on the beach. Have a beautiful breakfast overlooking the pool and beach contributed in us having one of the most relaxing and enjoyable family holidays we have ever had. All the staff on site were so helpful with everything. The manager Senaka ensured our stay was everything we had hoped for. Cannot wait until we can return.
Thank you Chris for your Review! I´m glad that you had the best time in our villa and fully enjoyed our services. I know that our staff already misses you and we all are looking forward to see you and your family once again soon. Kind RegardsPer, Helena and all our staff

We were a group of 13 people and had booked the entire villa. The villa was ideal with a lovely pool, beach front and catering provided. The staff were very helpful in helping us decide what to do, where to go and arranging anything required. The pool was amazing. The barbecue was fantastic! Even though it was raining heavily they still accommodated that. The a la carte menu for other meals was slightly limited as we wanted to eat there every day. Also there were not many vegetarian options as we had two people in our group who were vegetarian. But on the whole we loved the experience and would highly recommend the villa!
Thank you so much Tulika for your review.You are all so welcome back to us and at that time we will prepare more Indian and vegetarian options on the menu to get a 5 star rating :)Kind RegardsPer, Helena and all our staff
Thanks for two fantastic weeks at Ingels Beach Villa. We were at the Villa together with our children and grandchildren to celebrate our 50th wedding anniversary. We were 13 persons and the villa was really comfortable for all of us and the surroundings were really beautiful.
We all loved to swim in the sea and in the swimmingpool. The staff was very friendly and helpful. They arranged nice BBQ nights on the beach with lobster and fireworks. The manager Mr Senaka took care of us and arranged a lot of nice trips for us. We got possibility to see crocodiles, turtles, elephants and lot of other things. He also learned us to understand the culture of Sri Lanka.
Thank you for this memorable stay and we very much recommend Ingels Beach Villa!
Thank you so much Lisbeth!I´m so glad to hear that your stay met your expectations and beyond.I know that our staff already misses you and we all are looking forward to see you and your family once again soon.Kind regardsPer, Helena and all our staff
My wife and I started our 20th wedding anniversary with a six night stay at Ingels Beach Villa with multiple family members and I must say it was....FABULOUS! From beginning to end, whatever you needed they took care of. The morning breakfast and the evening dinners were incredible. The entire staff were five star all the way. Thank you so much for making our stay so memorable and look forward to a return trip in the near future.
Thank you so much Brian and I hope you had a pleasant remaining stay in beautiful Sri Lanka with your wife and family.You are most welcome back and the staff misses you already!Kind RegardsPer, Helena and all our staff
