Monthly Rentals in Pallepola

The Raintree Retreat is a real gem! The property is huge and therefore each bookable house comes with a lot of privacy. The nature is stunning with fishes, turtles, lizards, monkeys and so many exotic birds to watch (incl. Kingfishers). At nighttime we even saw many fireflies. And to our surprise there are hardly any moskitos thanks to the fishes. Beside this amazing nature-experience our highlight were the hosts and their utmost welcoming and caring manner. Sue and her husband are such lovely people and we enjoyed the time we spend together. Uthpala took us even to a nearby river and we had a dip in the fresh water together. Our kids loved it! On top of all that we were really blown away by the ultra yummy food. Home cooked srilankan dishes in the evening and a great breakfast, always trying to match our kids taste (not spicy and lots of waffles and pancakes ;-) Thanks again for making our holidays sooo great!

Our host couple Indira and Lakshman are very attentive and helpful people whose hospitality comes from the heart. We stayed for six weeks in their beautiful house, which is situated in a lovely garden on a hill in Sirimalwatta. Our flat with kitchen and two bedrooms also has a terrace where we always had our meals as a family of four. We liked it so much that we will be staying here again temporarily on our next visit to Sri Lanka in the autumn. Lakshman also helped my husband a lot with one of his local projects and arranged an appointment for him with the local governor.

Cool place, with great food!

We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful villa as a group of 4 adults and 4 kids. Nestled among coconut trees and lush nature, we even saw peacocks roaming around - a magical sight for the kids! I wish I could add pictures to the review - the place is absolutely stunning. The staff were kind, attentive, and made us feel very welcome. Huge thanks to Nalin for helping organise a memorable 5th birthday for my daughter with decorations and a lovely cake. The in-house chef was fantastic - every meal was fresh, delicious, and enjoyed by all. The villa is clean, spacious, and perfect for families, with 3 bedrooms each having its own en-suite bathroom. The last 1.5 km requires an SUV, especially after rain, but it's worth it for such a peaceful retreat. Nalin was always responsive and helpful. Highly recommend for anyone wanting to unwind in nature with great hospitality. Only minor feedback: clearer menu/pricing for meals and a few extra towels/toiletries would make it truly 5-star.
