Nommée d'après la fleur officielle du Sri Lanka, la Villa Nelum est une villa d'une chambre à coucher décorée avec goût dans un jardin, à quelques pas de l'océan. Un endroit serein avec tout le confort du luxe moderne.
La pièce maîtresse de la Villa Nelum est sa chambre, avec un grand lit bas et une baignoire exquise taillée dans un bloc de marbre massif, comment peut-on faire plus luxueux ?
En sortant de la Villa Nelum, vous pénétrez dans un jardin tropical luxuriant, avec de l'herbe verte sous vos pieds, un endroit idéal pour le petit-déjeuner, juste à côté de votre porte.
La Villa Nelum dispose d'un salon confortable avec de grandes baies vitrées et un grand canapé aux coussins moelleux dans lequel vous pourrez vous enfoncer avec un bon livre. Et si vous avez besoin d'un lit supplémentaire, le canapé se transforme en un lit confortable qui vous permet de disposer d'une deuxième chambre.
Au sein des Earaliya Villas and Gardens, vous découvrirez que le luxe n'est pas quelque chose d'imparfait. Le confort est le maître mot du personnel de la Villa Nelum, qui vous fournira tous les services et équipements nécessaires pour rendre votre séjour aussi agréable que possible.
À quelques pas de la Villa Nelum se trouve la plage de Weligama, célèbre pour ses vagues propices au surf. Weligama est l'un des nombreux petits villages de plage pittoresques de la côte sud du Sri Lanka. À seulement 45 minutes de Galle, site classé au patrimoine mondial de l'UNESCO, et à environ 2 heures de la capitale commerciale de Colombo, la Villa Nelum est parfaitement située pour des vacances idylliques à la plage.
10/10Eraeliya Villas and Gardens is a small boutique hotel set upon a palm tree lined hilltop over looking the surf in Weligama. An oasis amongst a fast moving pace of a traditional fishing village. We stayed in Villa Nellum set in our own private gardens. The bath tub was a very luxurious and welcome addition after long days travelling or surfing. Breakfast is served each morning, complimentary to your villa with a big range of choice western or Sri Lankan. We had some special lunches served on the hill top or by the pool. The food within the villas was delicious and affordable. My favourite was the tuna Ambultiyal .Beetroot long grain rice - red bean mix combo. Served with spring onion shredded coconut lime zest chilli un ripe tomatoes side. The staff were friendly, efficient and always welcoming. Perfect for couples, families and groups. I look forward to my next trip in season when the surf pumps at Jungle beach.
10/10Very relaxing hotel with superb location and excellent facilities. A little bit away from local amenities but this is a small price to pay to stay in such a lovely hotel. We stayed here after a 3 hour drive from Colombo airport - great place to re-charge the batteries in preparation for 10 days or so travelling around Sri Lanka. We had evening meal for two night on the beach at nearby Marissa which was very pleasant but it does require a tut tut drive or a taxi
10/10We really loved the Eraeliya Villas resort. Everything about the place exudes elegance and taste without being garish. The accommodation is in private villas and apartments dotted about the grounds and you never really feel you are in a hotel. Dining is also private and you eat all meals on your terrace or balcony. We enjoyed the fact that meals were a la carte, although the menu was only loosely based on what you would actually receive when you ordered, especially the breakfast menu which sometimes bore absolutely no resemblance to what the chef would prepare! For example, "poached eggs with spinach and hollandaise" would arrive as poached eggs with bacon and sausage! I think menu consistency needs to be improved, but this is not something which we felt we wanted to knock off a star for. The location is just perfect, with a stretch of (almost) private beach a few steps down. The sea can be rough with cross currents so be careful when swimming and extremely cautious when snorkelling. We stayed in the very cute Muhudu Bella villa with a unique snail shaped bathroom and. We felt this was the nicest villa of the bunch as it was the most romantic and secluded and had a Maldivian charm about it. The bathroom was lovely with a spacious shower area but is in dire need of more lighting. At night you practically shower in the dark. Service was very good, with all staff being very polite, friendly and helpful at all times. Overall a gorgeous place for a tranquil getaway in Sri Lanka.
