Luxury Beach Side Villa - Privatstrand, hervorragender exklusiver Koch und Personal
Das Khomba Beach House ist eine atemberaubende Privatvilla mit einem eigenen exklusiven Strand.
Inmitten eines 6 Hektar großen üppigen tropischen Gartens werden Sie von einem exzellenten Koch, Butler und Haushälter verwöhnt, der sich ganz Ihren Bedürfnissen widmet und exklusiv für Sie da ist.
Es liegt 2 1/2 Autostunden nördlich von Colombos Flughafen an der Westküste und ist das einzige Haus seiner Art an einem privaten, unberührten Strand. Im Gegensatz zu den Stränden im Süden gibt es in den ruhigen Gewässern keine Strömungen, sodass Kinder absolut sicher sind.
Steigen Sie von Ihrem eigenen Strand aus in ein Boot, um die atemberaubende Tagesausstellung der Delfin-Superschoten zu sehen, gehen Sie ein Stück weiter und sehen Sie die wandernden Wale oder kehren Sie an Land zurück und tauchen oder schnorcheln Sie vom Riff aus oder gehen Sie einfach angeln!
Das Khomba liegt 150 Meter vom Wasser entfernt und ist offen gestaltet. Hohe Decken, Ventilatoren, polierte Böden und überhängende Dachvorsprünge sorgen dafür, dass Sie die kühle Meeresbrise genießen und gleichzeitig im herrlichen, gemäßigten Licht baden können.
Das Khomba House besteht aus zwei separaten großen Doppelzimmern mit eigenem Bad. Jedes dieser Schlafzimmer verfügt über ein weiteres Tagesbett, das für kleine Kinder geeignet ist. An das erste Schlafzimmer schließt sich ein separates Wohnzimmer mit drei weiteren Tagesbetten an.
Die 80 m² große Hauptveranda bietet einen fantastischen Bereich zum Entspannen und um den Blick auf das Meer zu genießen.
Khomba rühmt sich eines der besten Köche in Sri Lanka. Es erwartet Sie eine köstliche Auswahl an lokalen Köstlichkeiten, die täglich frischen Hummer, Garnelen und den täglichen Fang sowie das frischeste Gemüse aus dem Garten liefern. Je nach Geschmack kocht der Koch auf Bestellung.
Am Ende des Gartens befindet sich einer der schönsten Strände Sri Lankas. Ganz privat, sehr wenige andere Leute (nur gelegentlich Fischer) und Sie haben Ihre eigene private Strandhütte.
Während Khomba ganz privat ist, haben Sie innerhalb eines kurzen Spaziergangs Zugang zu drei benachbarten Boutique-Hotels, die alle über Swimmingpools verfügen, für die unsere Gäste freundlicherweise eine Genehmigung erteilt haben. Darüber hinaus gibt es Strandbars und Restaurants, wenn Sie sich von Khomba losreißen können.
Die Gegend ist größtenteils unentdeckt, was bedeutet, dass es keine Strandverkäufer gibt und Sie aufgefordert werden, beim Einholen der Fischernetze mitzuwirken.
Unser Team von Gärtnern hat ein tropisches Paradies in der sechs Hektar großen Härte gebaut. Mit einer Fülle von Obstbäumen, einem Kokospalmenhain, einer Teakplantage und einem mit Koi-Karpfen gefüllten Süßwasserteich ist es ein Paradies für die atemberaubende lokale Vogelwelt. Abgesehen von den vielen farbenfrohen tropischen Vögeln und den 1000 Delfinen, die täglich ausgestellt werden, werden am Abend häufig Schildkröten am Strand gesichtet und Wanderwale können etwas weiter draußen auf dem Festlandsockel gefunden werden.
Khomba hat vier Fahrräder, mit denen wir die benachbarten Ferienorte besuchen können, die uns freundlicherweise erlaubt haben, ihre Einrichtungen zu nutzen, oder uns weiter in die Stadt vor Ort zu wagen.
Neben zahlreichen Hängematten und Ruhezonen bietet der Garten auch ein Badminton- / Volleyballfeld in voller Größe.
Kalpitiya hat einen wachsenden Ruf für Wind- und Kitesurfen in der Nebensaison in der Lagune. Es gibt zahlreiche örtliche Schulen, die Kurse für Anfänger und erfahrene Surfer anbieten.
Wenn Sie planen, Khomba Beach House als Teil einer längeren Tour durch Sri Lanka aufzunehmen, fällt es auf eine Route, die den Wiulpatu-Nationalpark, das kulturelle Dreieck und Kandy-Teeplantagen einschließt.
Khomba wurde vom Conde Nast Magazine als eines der besten Strandhotels der Welt ausgewählt.

Perfect in every way.
Khomba Beach House was our first stop during our 17-day trip through Sri Lanka. It's a gorgeous place with a very secluded beach at the end of a well-maintained garden. The team looking after us were amazing. The lunches and dinners consisted of a delicious variety of Sri Lankan curries; cake served in the afternoon was a big hit with the children. The bedrooms were incredibly comfortable and within earshot of waves lapping on the shore, and the ensuite bathrooms have fabulous open-air showers. It was the perfect stay at the start of our trip.

We've enjoyed one of the best times of our lives at Khomba House. You know that pleasant feeling when you get much (much!) more than you expected... Sisira, Indrani & staff, the house, its surroundings and the local wildlife made us feel like living in paradise.

Sri Lanka off the tourist trail
Beautiful location, quiet, sandy beach, large gardens and sea to swim in!All within walking distance. Take a tuk tuk to the local “high street”and choose your own fish for dinner cooked by a superb chef! Chill on the veranda watching the array of beautiful birds and knock down a coconut to mix your own cocktail! Sleep soundly under the mosquito nets and awake to the fabulous dawn chorus of the local birds and a flat Indian Ocean on your doorstep. Be pampered by your hosts who will arrange massages, trips and just welcome and make you feel at ease during your stay

Relaxation at Khomba
We had a nice relaxing time at Khomba. We were looked after very well by the resident staff. The standard of cooking was exceptional. The house is located with a beach accessed directly from the property. The area is very quiet with hotels on each side now closed after the pandemic and returning to nature. Another hotel close by has a fantastic pool which is available to use. There were a couple of basic bicycles which we used to cycle around the local villages. The accommodation is of a good standard and very comfortable with plenty of room for relaxation. There is fast WiFi available.

Khomba
We had an amazing time thank you! We went with the understanding that it was the windy season, so we weren’t at all disappointed by the beach.
Sisira was amazing, all the staff were. He set up two trips for us to the elephant orphanage and a lagoon tour.
The food was unbelievable!
It was my first trip away from our kids, who are 5 and 1, so I got to relax and read and sleep whenever I wanted to which was a treat in its self!
We made use of the Bar Reef pool and drank our fair share of Pina coladas! On our last day we went across to Udekki and met the very interesting Blues musician owner, who was also so accommodating and we had a drink with him.
It really was an amazing trip, our first time to Sri Lanka, and I think we will definitely be back one day.

Paradise away from it all
This was a wonderful spacious villa on a beautiful beach half way up the peninsula, away from everything. And that was heaven for us. Nothing was too much trouble for the wonderful couple looking after us. Sisara was a fantastic host and made sure everything ran so so s monthly. And Indrani is a great chef and we were so indulged with wonderful Sri Lankan food, salads and seafood. I simply can’t recommend this villa highly enough. There is a lovely green with a carp pond and bridge over it, a double swing and a palm covered hut on the beach with chairs and a table for sundowners. My daughter did kite surfing at a school about 30 minutes away in a tuk tuk (and had excellent one to one tuition), and I just chilled after my non stop cultural trip around Sri Lanka. A word of warning as with so many beachside properties the road to it is very very bumpy so warn your driver! But that, as I said , is normal.

Fantastic stay at Khoma house
Our stay at Khomba house was superb with the staff being very attentive and helpful.
The food was delicious and Indrani worked tirelessly in the kitchen to ensure we were well catered for. We couldn't get enough of the local seafood!
The excursions were well organised and we didn't have to worry about anything as Sisera the General Manager took care of all the details.
One aspect we enjoyed was the local wildlife and we would often watch the squirrels, lizards and butterflies go about their business. One day I saw 4 peacocks walk through the garden which was a surprise. The gardens were lovely and the beach adjacent to the property was excellent for bathing with the kids and chasing small crabs.
The property is in a remote location but doesn't really take away from the experience as you can still use the facilities in neighbouring resorts which are a short walk away.
The local town is a short tuk tuk ride away and if you wanted there was a bigger supermarket in Puttalam accessible within a 40 min drive.
We did some kitesurfing and found that Kappalady lagoon was handy for us about 30 mins up the coast.
I would definitely recommend this property to those with young kids and others wanting to relax in a remote location with nice ambience.

We are thrilled you enjoyed your time at Khomba and all it has to offer with regards to Indrani's cooking, the location and the wildlife in the garden. So exciting to see the peacocks wandering through the garden. It means so much to us that guests enjoy Khomba as much as we do. Thank you again. With best wishes Vicky

Surprised by the stunning reality
Suitcases are empty again, so we are safe at home. It can be quite tricky (as we are used to do now for 15 years) to rent a home so far away only from pictures and a description on the Internet. We were not disappointed, on the contrary!
First of all we would like to compliment the staff of Khomba House (as we also did in the Guest Book and by tipping). They are very discrete in their actions and behaviour, so guests have their respected privacy. Mr. Sariri does a good job as Butler/ General Manager of Khomba. Mrs. Indrani's cooking is superb. The best breakfasts, lunches and dinners we had in the three villa's we booked these weeks (and we never did not like any food served in these three weeks, so it's a compliment). The young couple also do their best to give you a *****Hotel feeling. The driver is punctual, helpful, relaxed and drives very safe!
We had high expectations of Khomba House, but we were surprised by the stunning reality. Photo's on the site could be better as reality is even more beautiful than the pictures shown. The general and specific information you send us about Khomba House, excursions, prices, etc. was very helpful. Overall idea is that we would recommend Khomba House to everybody we know who is visiting Sri Lanka. Thank you for a wonderful week in Khomba House!

Excellent holiday home
The villa was outstanding, everything you want for a complete rest, the staff do look after you so very well. We had fresh meals cooked for us each day, which were different each time and so well presented and they tasted lovely, afternoon tea served with homemade cake yummy.
We had a couple of trips, one was to see whales and dolphins, we saw 8 sperm whales and lots and lots of dolphins, this was arranged with Sisara the villa manager who goes out of his way to make your time at the villa so memorable, the trip to the national forest, we saw elephants, and a sloath bear which is quite rare, i think we were very lucky.
Vicky the owner was easy to work with, each query dealt with promptly, highly recommended.

5 star beach house best family holiday we've had!
Khomba Beach House is heaven. Surrounded by 6 acres of gorgeous gardens, the house opens fully to the trees, birds, noises and sounds outside. The beach and sea lie just beyond this with a view through the trees. The sitting room is completely open to this view like a huge veranda. The bedrooms & bathrooms are huge, cool and well thought out and it slept nine of us comfortably.
We arrived to be greeted warmly by Cissara and his wife Indrani and a cup of tea for an 8 day stay. Breakfast, lunch, tea & supper were cooked by Indrani and were delicious, varied & always Sri Lankan - just what we wanted. We didn't taste better food than this anywhere in Sri Lanka. Better still, there is no menu, no cooking, no washing up, no cleaning & it is all provided with such care & charm.
The sea is warm, absolutely safe with no tide or rip currents, and not even very deep all the way out to the reef. We took two boat trips; the first was a fishing trip where we caught a barracuda (cooked by Indrani for supper), the second to see dolphin. On the second trip we saw super pods of dolphin i.e. hundreds and then, amazingly, two blue whale just 25m from the boat - a real thrill.
Another excursion was to the Wilpattu National Park where we were lucky again to see a sloth bear, leopard, elk, a crocodile, colourful birds such as bee eaters and hornbill. Although it's a long time in the car, worthwhile nonetheless.
A typical day was: wake and take a dip in the sea, back to the house where a cup of tea arrives magically, breakfast, back to the beach, on to the neighbouring hotel for swimming and cabanas, back to Khomba for lunch, siesta in a hammock in the garden or a massage, read, beach ball in the garden, cycle into the nearby town (bikes from Cissara), drinks, supper, bed.
We stayed over Christmas and it was a treat to get away from the commercial razzmatazz, overeating & drinking. It was a real rest, the people are really charming and Khomba is exceptional.
Thanks so much to the owners, Cissara and Indrani.

A wonderful beach house in undiscovered Sri Lanka
Nine of us had the most wonderful stay at Khomba over Christmas. We were blown away by the location and the fact that there were so few people in this special corner of Sri Lanka. The house itself is very stylish in design and open to the elements meaning that all the birdlife flew past the house before our very eyes.
The team of Sisera, Indrane and Indaballa made our stay extremely special. They were so kind to us and Indrane is officially one of the best cooks in Sri Lanka. Every meal was different from the last and we were all blown away but the standard of cooking.
We would go back to Khomba in a heartbeat and hope that this little Sri Lankan secret doesn't 'get out' in the coming years.

Khomba house - New Year
We have recently returned from a wonderful family holiday in Sri Lanka, our third trip. Khomba house is a truly beautiful place which has been done to a very high standard and is so well maintained. Sisera and his team were wonderful, nothing was a problem and service was always with a smile. Indani's cooking was out of this world and we enjoyed everything - the older children were very adventurous too and Archie (20 months) enjoyed the curd! For less adventurous palettes and on one occasion for our children, Omelettes and chips were made and Indani was very open to suggestions, e.g. pancakes and yet more pancakes for breakfast! The gardens, and quiet spaces to relax are also wonderful as is the beach hut. Sisera arranged the whale watching and we were lucky to see 7 sperm whales and 2 blue whales. We also went fishing with the older children and they caught a massive barracuda which we then ate as fish curry.
We will definitely be returning to Khomba house again and we take home many fond memories that shall keep us going until the next time!
Thank you, Becky, Dan, Oscar (10) Poppy (7) and Archie (20 months)

A beautiful house in an idyllic spot
After an enjoyable drive up the coast from Columbo we were greeted by the widest & warmest smile we had come across. The staff at Khomba we our first impression & they were fantastic from start to finish. They took care of every small detail, and the food was the best i have had in SL (Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall agrees!).
The house itself is beautifully designed. Wide open spaces and clever positioning ensures it is cool throughout the day & night meaning we slept very well. It is slightly set back from the beach, and about 100 yards from the neighboring resort - although it feels very private as it is surrounded by foliage.
We stayed for 10 days and quickly got into a very sedate lifestyle, moving from delicious meal to meal, beach to the pool etc.. You'll find it very hard to leave once you get into this routine as I had not a care in the world!
I cannot recommend this place highly enough & I've been to stay in a lot of villas in SL. Many thanks to the kind owners who were very helpful before we left.

Über den Gastgeber
Zu Gast bei David Fuller
We live in Dorset UK, but my brother was working in Sri Lanka for the Red Cross post Tsunami, when he 'discovered' the West Coast.
Darum fiel die Entscheidung auf diese Unterkunft
For us this is a brilliant opportunity to get away from it all. For the kids it is treasure Island heaven snorkelling, climbing coconut trees and marvelling at the whales and dolphins. Even in my advanced years I can still get up on the skiis - see photo 2014.
Das macht diese Unterkunft einzigartig
For us this was a chance to really immerse ourselves in Sri Lankan culture. Our greatest allies are Sisera and Indrani, who have been running Khomba for the past five years. Their energy and enthusiasm are unrivalled and fill me with happiness every time I visit. It's also quite handy that Indrani is an outstanding cook. Every day she buys the best of the days catch whether it be Tuna or mackeral (local version) she works her magic with the local spices and turns out mammoth feasts. If you want to BBQ down at the beach - nothing is too much.
This has been an amazing journey for us - challenging at times, but the end result is just magical.
