Villas in Central Province, Sri Lanka

Our stay in the villa yea fields was a real paradise. It’s impossible to describe how peaceful it is, how relaxing and inspiring. We have spent 2 most lovely days in this villa thanks to the genuine kindness of the hosts and villa’s situation. Located in the very middle of the tea fields, you can not get enough of this view. Breakfast is very rich and carefully prepared, the room is spacious and clean. The hosts are the most wonderful people. We even had a chance to have a private visit to the tea fields which was definitely the aim of our journey to Sri Lanka. Highly recommend for your stay in the peace and unspoiled nature !

It was absolutely amazing experience. We came from Japan & came to highland area to escape the city busyness. We are astonished about this hidden gem. As we came in we were welcomed with fantastic passion fruit juice. We came after dark & only requested simple white rice & fried vegetable but the chef and her staff made an amazing dinner with simple vegetable & rice. I realized how food prepared with heart can heal our soul. I was kept thinking if people in the world could eat this kind of food with real soul in it, could heal the whole world!! It is so amazing to be surrounded by beautiful trees &sounds of animals. I will definitely come back again. O

Room was clean & spacious. Service staff was friendly & helpful for various requests. Only down side is that there were a few instances of water outage - although usually resolved 10 minutes. Heated water in shower takes quite a while - although maybe it’s due to location (mountainous area). Food however quite lacking - really really salty.

The hotel is hidden away in the mountains outside Kandy, a great spot to relax and unwind. It is about 45 minutes out of central Kandy and 20 minutes to the botanical gardens  but the hotel will helpfully arrange transport if you decide to head into town. The view from the hotel is one of the best I have ever seen and sitting, relaxing in the beautiful grounds was one of the highlights of our time in Sri Lanka. The hotel food is also excellent, with a wide variety of delicious curries available. All of the staff are extremely friendly, warm and welcoming, they went out of their way to make sure we had a good time They also have a very affectionate dog, which was a huge win!

It was a delightful stay at the Forest View Villa. The food was delicious, especially the rolled pancakes for breakfast and the view amazing. We highly recommend this place. As the train connection between Kandy and Ella is not yet (end of February 2026) working, due to the devastating cyclon in December 25, you might want to consider asking your host to drive you. It might be less stressful than changing busses 3 times.

🍃 On the hillside of Kandy Lake, it is located in the English courtyard halfway up the mountain. The environment is elegant and quiet, very suitable for vacation. 🍃 White yarn is lightly drooped, and there is greenery outside the window. The wind in the middle of the mountain passes through the gap, bringing coolness. In the morning, you can stroll in the small courtyard, overlooking the quiet Kandy Lake in the morning mist. The branches and leaves are light in the wind, and a good day is opened in this morning light...

The triple room has two double beds of the same size, one on the first floor and one on the loft. Anyway, we have no problem staying in the two large and two small rooms, and the room size is also large. Although the location is on a hillside but it is very convenient to go to the lake, about three to five minutes by car. The only insufficiency is the restaurant. If you have dinner at the hotel, you'd better order it in advance, because there is only one chef and everything is freshly made. After ordering, we will sit in the restaurant for about 40 minutes before serving.

Melheim Kandy Villas is a charming hillside retreat that blends comfort, nature, and warm hospitality beautifully. Nestled amidst lush greenery with sweeping views of the Kandy hills, it offers a peaceful escape from the bustle of the city while still being within a reasonable drive to key attractions. The rooms are spacious, spotless, and thoughtfully designed, with large windows or balconies that let you soak in the serene surroundings. The beds are comfortable, and the overall ambiance feels homely yet refined. While the property is generally well-maintained, a few minor maintenance touches could make it even better. One of the highlights is the service — the staff are genuinely friendly, attentive, and eager to make your stay memorable. The breakfast is hearty and flavorful, often featuring fresh local produce, and dining on the terrace with a view is a treat in itself

A really lovely house, clean and in a quiet location outside of the centre of town. The absolute star of this listing is the host Shameera who is one of the best there could be. He’s incredibly responsive on WhatsApp and always on hand with great tips and ideas on where to go and what to do. His breakfast was also exemplary. Thanks for a great stay

The hotel is super satisfied, the facilities and services are very good, the surrounding environment is also super good, there is no signal on the mountain, you can only use the hotel wifi All in all, a hotel that is very recommended
