Serendib Village Guest House features spa facilities and beauty services, as well as air-conditioned accommodation in Negombo, 400 metres from Negombo Beach. There is an in-house restaurant, plus free private parking and free WiFi are available. The accommodation offers a 24-hour front desk, full-day security and currency exchange for guests.

We had to work remotely on our first day in Negombo, so we chose a more spacious room. The room was huge, with sofa and table, but we still ended up working at the breakfast area by the river, and by the pool later on. We had the srilankan breakfast, which included curry and dhal, eggs and toast, as well as fruits and tea/coffee. Good wifi, good breakfast, nice pool, and great service.

At the guest house, each room has a desk. With a private bathroom fitted with a bath and free toiletries, rooms at The Nature Villa & Cabanas also feature free WiFi. The rooms at the accommodation come with a seating area.

I thoroughly enjoyed Negombo Nature Villa & Cabanas. It was a perfect place to stay after arriving at 2am from an international flight. It's 25 minutes from the main airport. We were greeted by a lovely lady who helped us settle in, It's family run and is perfect for a night or two to rest. It's a close walk to Negombo Beach (5 minutes) and the hotel also has a small pool to enjoy. I highly recommend - great location, great value, great people!

Very cute little hotel. The owners are incredibly nice and welcoming. They were exceptional hosts. They picked us up from the airport in their tuktuk, provided us a great place to spend the night, and provided a really tasty breakfast the day we left. It’s a basic but comfortable room. Very close to the bus/train station and also close to restaurants and atms. Would definitely stay here again

The cleanest hotel we stayed in Sri Lanka!!! Spacious rooms. Very tasty breakfast. The Host served the breakfast earlier, because we had early departure. He arranged transfer to the airport and we could exchange the money in the hotel as well. Good localisation near the beach.

    Alanka is such a genuine and helpful host. He met us the airport & took us to his residence (arranged easily when we booked). The Guest house is clean & exceptional value for money. So quiet at night - heard only one dog and one rooster, & no passing traffic! Breakfast was nice - freshly blended juice, roti, egg, lovely dhal - a welcome start to another culture. Also toast and jam and banana as well. Would definitely stay again.
