  We came to South Point Villa for the Sun, heat and the ocean but we will come back for the food and friendship. The chefs cooked us curried prawns, curried chicken and fish. We had grilled Tuna and a fish platter check out the photos. Breakfast has been made for us every morning by our house maid Indrani. My wife and I love shopping locally so we go to the small fruit market around the corner and buy bananas, papaya, pineapple and passion fruit. The store by the railway tracks has bread delivered every day so that completes breakfast. We have had the chef make lunch for us a few times as well. The Calamari is great, as is the BLT if you are looking for a taste of home. We have also had butter fried cuttlefish and simple egg sandwiches. Other days we have cooked for ourselves and worked our way through the ample leftovers. We have been in The Chalet for the month of march 2018. The house was perfect for the two of us. The Chalet has two bedrooms, two bathrooms and a wonderful outdoor area. The overhead fan keeps us cool and the pool is only a few steps away. We have been able to use the villas next to the ocean when they have been empty and the ocean view at all three of them is great. The villas are all meticulously maintained by the army of gardeners and maids. We were offered a free boat cruise on Lake Kogalla where the rental Cottage is located while there we saw monkeys and eagles. A stop at Cinnamon island completed some of our souvenir shopping for friends at home. We have enjoyed meeting all of the staff at South Point Villas. Mr. Gamini has been a wonderful resource for local knowledge answering all of our questions. I was interested in how they harvested the coconuts, so he arranged for the man to come and take down those that were ready. Free climbing a coconuts tree is something to see. Anil (Mr. Fixit) has been ready willing and able to fix any little issues that have come up. Mrs. Sonali the owner has been a pleasure to deal with quickly replying to emails and answering any of our questions. Our house maid Indrani is a treasure. She has made our breakfast, made out beds and kept the house clean. When we moved to one of the other houses for the afternoon, she followed. She made sure we got across the road ok and had everything we wanted when we arrived. Monkeys, Peacocks and a Mongoose visited the garden as well as many other local birds. We enjoyed everything about our month here and happily recommend it to anyone looking for a great vacation in Sri Lanka.

  I stayed at South point villa for 20 days from late December 2017 to early January 2018. What at amazing place, all the staff are so attentive the chef that serves the villa is outstanding. His food is of an exceptional quality all the dishes he prepared were first class from local dishes to continental breakfast to pasta pizza even tempura prawns we're all cooked to perfection with absolutely no fuss. It's such a beautiful place with it's own pool just on the side of the building it's has an open covered veranda where your meals are taken then a large decked area which you step down into the garden which leads to a beautiful beach on the Indian ocean. Eight of us stayed there my wife and our 5 children and my adult son it's such an amazing place we chose it as our backdrop for our wedding which made our day even more special I cannot recommend this place enough it's a small piece of paradise in a country that will totally blow you away
