Josan Villa with a Glorious Beach & Sea View

I just wanted to sincerely Thank John the owner of the property for his generosity, kindness, and warm hospitality. His thoughtful support and guidance truly made my trip smoother and more enjoyable. I deeply appreciate everything he did from welcoming us all the way to our departure.Wishing him and his lovely team all the best and hopefully to stay in touch.

Everything was just perfect. Loved staying at his property, and for sure will stay there aging if I decide to go again for a visit.

Great location on a wonderful beach. Staff was excellent.

Zero atmosphere. We didn’t have dinner as there was nothing inviting about the dining area. The beach furniture was older and discolored. While the rooms were large, the balcony sea view was blocked by the top strip. They need higher chairs. Hot water was hit and miss and the safe was not bolted down.

The views and the location on the beach are absolutely unbelievable. Stuff friendly. One of those memorable accommodations, althought not 100% luxury.

Nothing really, all ok or better.

Josan Villa is right on a wide and generous white sandy beach that seems to stretch for miles in both directions. The waves are too high to actually swim in the ocean, though, so don't count on that. Just wade into the surf up to your waist, relax on a sunchair and then cool off in the little indoor dipping pool of the villa. The rooms are very modern. A dream come true if you like Bauhaus minimalism with polished concrete floors and Piet Mondrian paintings. John, the manager, is an old-school gentleman, helpful and accommodating. The beds are huge and comfortable. The TV and WiFi connection was the best we encountered in the southern half of the island. What wasn't ideal is that there are only sun shades, which don't keep the room dark once the sun rises so that can wake light sleepers up. And the place is right by the road so the traffic will start around the same time, like at 6 am.

Josan villa is a luxurious sliver of real estate. Both adjacent buildings are certainly not.

Location

Wet when rained, Air con condensate leaked into wardrobe and soaked clothes, towels poor quality and sheets not changed all week. But generally things were very good.

Josan Villa offers an idyllic escape to the stunning coastline of Sri Lanka. From the moment you arrive, you're greeted with breathtaking panoramic sea views that truly live up to the villa's name. The property's beachfront location is a major highlight, providing direct access to pristine sands and the soothing sounds of the ocean.Free Wi-Fi and comfortable room accommodations ensure a convenient and enjoyable stay.

Enjoyed our 7 night stay John & team are very welcoming nothing was too much trouble Magnificent beach one of the best

The WIFI was the best that we experienced in Sri Lanka - fast and reliable.Our room was extremely large with a big balcony overlooking the beach. It also had a sofa and TV with Netflix subscription which we enjoyed.The hotel is opposite both the railway station and the bus station which was ideal for us in order to travel along the coast in both directions.

In my opinion, the landscaping at the front of the property and the garden area at the back could be improved but this did not impact our stay at all.

Overall our stay was just beautiful! We stayed for 6 nights at the end of our Sri Lanka trip. We chose the hotel as we wanted one directly at the beach (check: The Hotel is right at the beach and you have a perfect Sea-view from every Hotel), which isn't too big (check: The hotel has 3 rooms total, so you're not just a number) and has at least the possibility to eat there (check: breakfast was included, dinner was optional but we ate there 4 times)John (the owner) and his crew is a really nice and helpful person, he even took us once to Galle, as he had something to do there so we hadn't have to take an Uber there. He was always there for a small chat (if you wanted, he was never intrusive).The boys who work for him are phenomenal! Always nice and accomodating! But also never too much.There was a menu for breakfast where you could choose between different things, in our opinon there is enough choice for a week. We even got asked the last day if we want a typical sri lankan breakfast (which we luckily had as it was really delicious!).What we have to add is, that John wasn't above to clean the beach every morning himself! We saw him cleaning some stuff which felt down from the trees or got blown at the beach infront of the hotel. This shows his passion for this hotel.Hopefully the hotel and the crew stays at is! We really can recommend a stay at Josan Villa! We will be staying there, if we come back to Sri Lanka at some point. Thanks John!

Nice big rooms, John and his team took good care of us on our honeymoon!

The owner John, Saku and the rest of the staff

The location and beach was stunning. Only a small hotel but it felt like home. The staff were so attentive, sweet and kind.

My first thoughts were disappointment regarding limited Sri Lankan menu but I soon realised that it is the same wherever you stay. And the food that was served was good. The lighting in the rooms was not good but John the owner had plans to improve.

It is very nicely located in front of the beach, nice view, very big room.

The place is quite nice, very high level, but it misses a bit on the details: example the towels didn’t have a good fabric, i am sure few dollars can increase much more the experience

Staff were friendly and helpful, and the location was very close to shops and restaurants. The view from the room was really beautiful and the sandy beach was very clean and peaceful.

The lighting in the room was very limited.

Big room with sea view. Staff very friendly. Playing cards and books available. TV con YouTube. Sunbeds directly on the beach.

Some construction works nearby

Very nice beach, good rooms, clean and friendly staff

Not much

Lovely big comfortable room.Beach viewVery friendly staff Just a 45 minute bus ride to Galle for 100lkr

Construction next door.. but that’s not their fault

Bedroom fabulous. Location fantastic.

Not being told of the dreadful drowning of a 26 year old girl the day before we arrived. The sea and.currents are hugely powerful. There should be warning signs all along the beach. Hotels should carry working, life-saving aids as standard.

Location, rooms and beach were incredible. Staff also amazing!

Food could be improved for sure.
