Tisara Villas

Traveling as a couple with a baby in March 2023. First place of our trip to Sri Lanka. Immediately, we were greeted by the staff members with a big smile. The villa is spacious, clean and the garden is simply beautiful. You wake up to the sound of birds, surrounded by plants, flowers and trees. The pool is fabulous. Special mention to the incredible kindness of the staff. The chef of the kitchen, on site, concocted small dishes on request, for us and our baby. It was simply delicious. A big thank you to the whole team, we hope to come back one day.

The Koggala Beach Hotel is more than just a beach hotel. Whether terrace or balcony, all of the hotel's rooms have a fantastic view of the Indian Ocean. The price-performance ratio is excellent for the size of the rooms and the beautiful, direct beach location. The decor with classic style furniture and warm colors create a familiar and pleasant atmosphere. The staff at the Koggala Beach Hotel are friendly, very helpful and courteous, for example when ordering a tuk-tuk for a sightseeing tour in the surrounding area, or even when changing money at reception when the banks are closed. The hotel offers a variety of meals in the restaurant. During my stay I was able to choose between a buffet and an a la carte menu. For breakfast, various types of bread, cakes, fruit and various Sri Lankan meals are offered. Coffee, tea and fresh juices are available. A nice chili omelette is a good start to the day. My recommendation for dinner: the fried fish with vegetable variations, a glass of sauce nicely draped in the middle of the plate. A beautiful, creative eye-catcher, because it's a feast for the eyes. It tastes delicious and looks good! The grilled chicken with chips and vegetables or salad is also recommended. So there is something for everyone's physical well-being. The surf on Koggala Beach can have strong currents, which is quite normal in Sri Lanka, you just have to be careful when swimming in the sea. If these waves are a bit too strong for you, you don't have to miss out on a refreshing swim, the hotel's own pool invites you to swim. The hotel is a good location for excursions to, for example, the turtle farm, the Dickwella Temple and the city of Galle. The Koggala Beach Hotel is suitable for groups, families with children and singles. This beach hotel creates a good symbiosis between a beautiful beach, culture and good value for money.

The hotel complex Tisara Villas presents itself in a new style. Most of the nine villas have been renovated and I think the renovation has been done very well. The natural lightness combined with the light, rustic furnishings in beige, white and light sand colors is the new ambience that fits perfectly into this beautiful tropical garden. Windows were let into the terrace doors, a simple idea leads to more brightness in the rooms. A great effect! Beautiful pictures and accessories on the walls set color accents. The staff is very helpful with things like shopping at the local market, preparing a meal at the villa, choosing a menu or snacks for lunch or dinner. The chef's salad and fresh fruit lunch is a delicious, light meal in a tropical climate. The hotel complex has a pool, and in the office or at the entrance of the complex you can order a tuktuk or a car with a driver for excursions. An information folder with prices for TukTuk rides in the surrounding area and information for tourist attractions is available in every villa. In my opinion, this beautiful gem is well suited and recommended for nature lovers, small groups, families and solo travelers alike!
