Colombo Retreat is our Sri Lankan home. Freshly renovated, it is a four bedroom spacious apartment with a secluded garden, centrally located for all major attractions, shops and restaurants. With high-speed wifi, it can double as a place to work. You will have sole use of the apartment. Built in the 1940's, our home is not air-conditioned, but has good through-circulation and ceiling fans in all rooms. The furniture is our very own eclectic mix of antique family pieces and new acquisitions. The house has two verandahs that open onto a secluded walled garden. There are four double bedrooms (one of which can be either twin-bedded or a double). Two bedrooms have en-suite bathrooms and two share an adjacent bathroom. All the bathrooms are recently refurbished with good modern showers and hot water. The kitchen, also recently refurbished, has all the equipment you should need to prepare meals. It has a gas hob with four rings, electric oven, fridge-freezer and microwave. The cupboards hold generous quantities of cutlery, crockery, glassware, cooking pans and utensils. The dining room houses a long table and chairs for 10 people and leads onto an area with a desk for working. The sitting room has sofas and armchairs and a large flat screen tv. The utility room houses a washing machine, tumble dryer and ironing equipment.
One of the best stays I have ever had in all my years of staying across Airbnbs. Such a beautifully curated and soulful house. Every corner and every piece of furniture and decor had a beautiful story to tell. Will be back soon. Chandi, Lucy and Asha were impeccable hosts. They were extremely helpful and went out of their way to make our stay memorable.
Highly recommend this retreat from the bustle! Colombo Retreat is the coolest and quietest house we've encountered in Colombo (and we used to live in the city). A gracious old house with a large garden: my favourite thing was sitting out on the verandah in the morning looking out on tropical greens and listening to the birds. We have in fact stayed at this house before it was listed here as Colombo Retreat and I especially recommend it for longer family stays. We stayed a month once with young children and it was the perfect place: so big we could all spread out after living in a tiny flat, and so beautifully furnished we felt we had a small hotel to ourselves. Every time we returned to the house from outside, I felt lucky! Our children revelled in the garden and regular hose-pipe showers outside. The house is well set up too - high chair, travel cot, fully equipped kitchen, and more seating areas and lighting options than you'll know what to do with. Best ceiling fans!
Our home is in the green heart of Colombo, just off a wide avenue. A five minute walk to the city’s park and National Museum in one direction, it is ten minutes to a large produce market, shops, and a cinema in the other. Guests can take an easy stroll to the Beira Lake or to the bustle of Colombo’s main arteries – Duplication Road, Galle Road and Marine Drive – but with a café, wine shop and ice cream bar at the top of the road, they can also enjoy staying in.
There is free parking on the street outside the apartment. There are reliable 3-wheeler drivers at the top of the street. Alternatively, PickMe and Uber drivers can be easily summoned for travel around town
