"Hands down, this was the best accommodation we've ever stayed in! The villa is absolutely stunning—every detail of the interior, the pool, and the breathtaking view was incredible. It's perfectly located, just a short tuk-tuk ride from everything, yet it remains a peaceful, quiet haven. You can enjoy your morning coffee while watching peacocks dance and monkeys leap between palm trees—a truly magical experience!
Charith and Tharaka went above and beyond to make our stay as enjoyable and comfortable as possible. They are incredibly kind and welcoming, and we felt so lucky to have them around."

"Our stay in the villa exceeded all expectations. We felt right at home. We traveled with two kids who loved the pool, played with the puppies, and watched kingfishers and peacocks while my husband and I had a glass of wine with the most beautiful view of the paddy fields. The villa is located near one of the most beautiful beaches where you can swim with turtles. The biggest added value to this beautiful place is the two wonderful people who make sure you feel at home and ease. Charith prepared wonderful breakfasts and even dinners when we couldn't go to a restaurant, and Tharaka made sure the garden and pool were always clean. They were full of interesting information, and lovely to talk with. I highly recommend it!"

"Staying at Villa Prana was truly sensational, in every aspect. The staff's warmth and hospitality extended to the beautifully prepared, flavourful breakfasts, offering a nourishing start to each day.
​
The villa's grandeur is accentuated by its soaring ceilings and expansive layout, with the outdoor dining area thoughtfully equipped with fans, ensuring comfort during the balmy days and nights. Every corner of this newly renovated haven exudes love and attention to detail.
​
Particularly enchanting was the al fresco bathroom, boasting chic fixtures and adorned with handcrafted Sri Lankan textiles, cushions, and bedspreads, adding a touch of elegance and local charm.
​
The villa's serene ambiance, makes it the perfect sanctuary for indulging in activities like reading, writing, and painting on the veranda, while overlooking the lush green paddy fields, home to a spectacular array of birds, from majestic peacocks to vibrant kingfishers.
​
My stay at Villa Prana was nothing short of a delight, I cannot wait to return to Villa Tamba PraNa next season."

"Tamryn’s house is a haven of tranquility minutes from the crazy beach road . The setting in paddy fields with villagers quietly cycling through the fields ; cattle grazing with egrets; and wild peacocks; a kingfisher dipping into the swimming pool; monkeys on the jungle slopes across from the house; and the fish seller calling out as he cycled his cart along the valley pathways. The housekeeper spoke good english and security man were so kind and willing."

"Nestled in nature and amongst the rice fields, our stay at this heavenly retreat stands out as one of the most luxurious experiences we've ever had… Surrounded by lush greenery and teeming wildlife, including a delightful array of tropical birds.
The kingfisher sipping from the pool each morning and the dance of peacocks was so special to see.
Charith and Tharaka tended to our every need with impeccable care, ensuring our rooms, the pool, and the villa were always in pristine condition. The breakfast spread they served each morning was so delicious.
Tammy's responsiveness and insightful recommendations about the local area were so helpful! Even the adorable and friendly resident dogs added to the charm of the place. We're already planning a group reunion for next year at what the villa became named as 'Barbie's Dream House.'"
