Featuring a terrace and views of garden, Highbury Colombo is a recently renovated homestay set in Colombo, 1.1 km from Milagiriya Beach. With a garden, the 4-star homestay has air-conditioned rooms with free WiFi. The accommodation offers airport transfers, while a bicycle rental service is also available. The property is absolutely breathtaking. Spotlessly clean and very tastefully designed and decorated. Manoji and her husband are exceptional hosts: Manoji’s thoughtfulness and care (and her cooking lessons!) made the space feel like home. Highbury is a short tuktuk ride away from the Gallery Cafe and Geoffrey Bawa’s Residence (No. 11). Would definitely return to Highbury if I’m ever back in Colombo!

Featuring city views, Colombo 07 Charming Home Stays features accommodation with balcony, around 2.9 km from Bambalapitiya Beach. There is a private entrance at the homestay for the convenience of those who stay. The accommodation offers airport transfers, while a car rental service is also available. It is very clean and peaceful, although most of the time we were busy outside, we had no trouble dropping in for a short rest because the location was very convenient! We would highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a welcoming place to stay and refresh.

The units are equipped with air conditioning, a flat-screen TV with cable channels, a fridge, a kettle, a walk-in shower, a hair dryer and a desk. Featuring a private bathroom with a bidet and free toiletries, units at the homestay also provide guests with free WiFi, while some rooms here will provide you with a terrace. At the homestay, all units have bed linen and towels. Without an iota of doubt, I would strongly recommend this property for both families & work related travel. This is unlike any property where the owners go beyond the normal hospitality (expected out of any hotel) and make you feel that you are staying in a place which you have known for eternity. The morning breakfast they prepare is delicious and healthy. Especially for folks like me with dietary restrictions, they make sure our needs are properly met. Their friendly approach is truly remarkable. I now know where to stay in Colombo whenever I come back.
