Blue Parrot Beach Villa Righ on the white sand beach,

Excellent stay the villa was perfect the food fantastic and the manager and staff were also fantastic

This is a great beach villa, this was our last stop of our tour of Sri Lanka and we were all ready for a rest! The villa is great for that, right on the beach and a tuktuk ride away from the next town. It had everything we needed: 2 good bedrooms and full working kitchen. The team were great and looked after us superbly well. All requests were catered for including shopping, cooking meals, extra towels. Our trip coincided with Sri Lankan New Year and everyone is on holiday - the Blue Parrot team ensured we were well looked after. Absolutely loved it.

Sudath, the owner, and his staff spoilt and helped us whenever we needed his advice. He has very good connections to tourguides and drivers at reasonable prices. We enjoyed very nice breakfast selection and tasteful local dinner dishes. We did not even think about going to restaurants... Perfect location to slow down and refill the batteries and to start a roundtrip throughout sri lanka. Quiet and beautiful beach without tourists and beach boys. Very impressing to watch the fishermen retrieving their nets every morning.

Sudath ist a great guesthoster, and always available for any wish we had. He has also a great team. The two ladies preparing breakfast and cleaning the hause are really nice and you can order your dinner if you want. Sudath recomannded us a tuk-tuk driver who was really suitable and as all the people in Sri Lanka so friendly. We also have to thank Chaminda our taxi driver with whom we spend so nice time in Ella. The house is very clean and pleasant. We really felt at home. We really recommend this house and we will come back. Sri Lanka is a beautifull island and we had one of our best holidays.

We were four people, one couple with two friends, and stayed four nights. The house is situated directly at a long and lonely beach. All rooms are beautifully furnished. Each of the two bedrooms has its own bathroom. Our friends got even two separate beds. Some footsteps and you're into the sea with great waves. All food was very tasty and made with love. Owner and staff were very friendly and helpful, they've even done our laundry without taking money for. The next little town is not far away but you need to take a tuktuk. Hikkaduwa is about 15 km away. It's nice for going out, eat and drink at the sea, but the beach there is nothing compared to the one you have in front of the beach villa. We highly recommend it!

We had a great time, especially we liked - the location directly at teh beach - the service and friendliness of Sudath and his team - the beach

This was a beautiful villa next to the beach, well furnished and equipped in every room and cleaned every day. The food was amazing ( so we ate dinner in most evenings) but most important of all - Sudath and his family were so friendly, and full of information and advice, that they really made this a holiday to remember. To anyone looking to visit this villa, we would say ‘ listen to his advice and follow it ! Enjoy beautiful Sri Lanka.

The property was clean and functional and as described in the photos. Amazing access to the beach which we had pretty much to ourselves. The children were safe to play by themselves whilst we watched on from the verandah. The accommodation was well equipped and the staff on hand were very helpful and conscientious. Breakfast was delicious both the traditional and Sri Lankan options, we also tried many of the dishes from the menu which were very tasty and good value. Our host was around everyday to offer advice, recommendations and arrange anything we needed - transport, massages etc. I would highly recommend this place and hope to return myself in the future.

Our family stayed in Blue Parrot Villa for 6 nights in March 2018. The villa came recommended by a friend who had stayed there previously. It made for a great authentic experience. The villa is functional and pretty, the beach is right on the doorstep, and Sudath (the owner) drops by daily to make sure everyone is happy or to offer advice on trips. Our tuktuk and taxi drivers (organised by Sudath) were utter gems, they themselves offered advice regarding places to eat and other places to visit. It was because of this that we felt we really got to the heart of the place, not just seeing Sri Lanka from behind a glass wall. We heard first-hand stories from locals about the tsunami, we watched fishermen bring in their catch, we chatted with the owner of the turtle conservation project down the road from the villa. It was a week full of beautiful experiences with Blue Parrot villa as our base. Things to be noted would be: there are plenty of stray dogs in Sri Lanka and several on the beach in front of the villa. They are friendly and will walk up to the villa door (one dog slept on the outdoor table every night), but it's something to take note of if someone is scared of dogs! Another thing is that the windows at Blue Parrot villa have no insect screens and there is no way of closing parts of them. Stock up on insect repellant and/or incense and/or sprays on your first day. The beds all have nets around them but we often found mosquitoes (huge ones!) lurking within the nets in the evening, so keep an eye out for that. The kitchen tends to get full of ants. We had been warned about this so we took a few zip-lock food bags which served us well as any snacks left on the countertop otherwise would have been a write-off. I would absolutely recommend the Blue Parrot Villa to a friend, bearing in mind the above notes. The staff were excellent and kind (though many times messages didn't get across due to language barriers, wrong food orders, misunderstanding requests etc, so be as clear as possible!), food was delicious (the chicken noodles were a favourite with us!), and our overall experience was a superb one. We were all sad to leave.

Kelly and I stayed at Blue Parrot for our first trip from the United States to Sri Lanka. The house is in perfect condition and has an amazing view! All the pictures shown online are current and accurate. The staff at Blue Parrot cooked amazing meals. Which made lazy nights for us easy if we didn't want to cook or go out. One night the cooking staff got some muscles from the local fisherman and made a delicious dish. The beach is clean and the water is perfect for swimming. Not knowing the area was never a problem. Blue Parrot staff checked in with us daily to make sure we didn't need anything or any help planning day trips. We also had the option of having our room cleaned daily by staff if we wanted to. We highly recommend staying at this house! Bryan & Kelly
