Set in Negombo, within 600 metres of Negombo Beach and 2.2 km of Wellaweediya Beach, Ayubowan Guesthouse offers accommodation with free WiFi, air conditioning, an outdoor swimming pool and a garden.

The accommodation is beautiful with a wonderful garden and pool. Although the rooms were not huge, we felt very comfortable. Brenda and Ron are fantastic hosts. They helped us with everything effortlessly and made our stay even more perfect with great tips. I must also mention the breakfast – simply delicious! Whether it was the Sri Lankan breakfast or the pancakes. We would definitely come back anytime.

Set just 500 metres from Wellaweediya Beach, Mario Family Villa and Restaurant features accommodation in Negombo with access to a garden, a shared lounge, as well as luggage storage space.

Mario family villa is an amazing place to stay. This guest house is closer to the beach and the Main Street where you can find restaurant and shop. It is a clean place to stay and good value for the money you spend. Above all the owner of Mario family villa was really kind and made me feel warm during my stay. We really had a great time. The Room was clean and tidy and the bed was covered with fresh sheets and towels. It is kind and warm place that made us feel at home. The breakfast was so good with a lot of fresh fruits and different kind of food :) Highly recommended to anyone who wants a sweet, safe place to stay. If we'll back for sure we'll book this place to stay again!

    The property itself is beautiful but the hosts made it for us. Great location in a quiet neighbourhood which is well worth exploring on the provided bikes. Breakfast was amazing with surprises every day. The hosts were just the best and as accommodating as it comes.

    Deb was so accommodating and kind, going above and beyond to help us to be comfortable. Taxi pick up was so easy (despite arriving at 4am). Great location about 10 minutes walk from the beach and restaurants. A superb host with a lovely guesthouse which we would thoroughly recommend!
