What a fabulous place to stay! It's a real calm sanctuary, just a few minutes away from all the excitement of the coast, we had such a amazing stay here and would highly recommend.

"We absolutely loved everything about the villa. Furnished and decorated it beautifully and the location is perfect - we loved being set back from the hustle and bustle but still close enough to everything - a little haven of tranquility.
Charith and Taraka were brilliant - very attentive, welcoming and friendly. We were so well looked after.
We would love to return and can’t imagine staying anywhere else other than Tamba PraNa. We’re already trying to figure out when next we can visit!"

"By far the absolute best place we've ever had. Everything from getting in touch to checking out is just great.
Charith and Tharaka are the pearls of the house. We were lovingly cared for during our stay. Charith surprised us every morning with a delicious breakfast and even responded to the children's special requests.
The villa was cleaned daily, fresh flowers were on the table... just loving detail work.
The great view from the pool over the paddy fields and simultaneous privacy speaks for itself. Those who don't feel comfortable here can actually no longer be helped.
In summary: vacation from the finest from the first minute."

What a truly fantastic stay we had at Villa Tamba Prana.
Thank you, Tammy. The setting was beautiful, and our housekeeper, Charith, and groundsman, Tharaka, made all of us feel so welcome at the villa. Our time at the home wouldn’t have been the same without them. Charith cooked for us on a few nights and each morning, and the food was delicious, to say the least.This is an incredible introduction to authentic Sri Lankan cuisine with genuine, sincere hospitality.
I’d highly recommend this villa to anyone visiting Sri Lanka!

We had the most wonderful week at Tamba PraNa. The house, pool and surrounding paddy fields were a tranquil paradise.
Starting the mornings spotting wildlife on the terrace alongside the delicious breakfast was incredible. The house is beautiful and was also kept perfectly clean throughout the stay. The bedrooms are extremely comfortable and well appointed and the outdoor bathroom was particularly magical.
If you are thinking about booking to stay at Tamba PraNa, don’t hesitate!
We made incredible memories for life at this unforgettable place!

Our stay here was simply perfect. The house is beautiful, the views are amazing, the service is unmatched. We stayed in other places in Sri Lanka and this was the best we’ve experienced, and it’s a lot thanks to Charith who works here and is trying to make our vacation as relaxing as possible. Food was really good, the house was cleaned every day and he created such a a beautiful bond with our son. We can’t recommend enough this place.

"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.'"
