Feedback from our guests since we added the pool and pool house in 2026…..
We had three wonderful nights at Kumbuk and wished we had booked to stay longer. What a beautiful house and setting - we were very lucky to visit with the new pool and pool house.
We loved the amazing cooking and all the delicious Sri Lanka food prepared for us.
Its our first visit to Sri Lanka and we were lucky to stumble on Kumbuk on Mawella beach. We would love to come back. Georgina and Mike, February 26
What a blissfully slow and steady week we have had here - sloping barefoot from the pool to the beach and from hoppers to curry and curry to hoppers!
Thank you so much to the lovely team for making everything so happy, easy and comfortable - and for accommodating both of our demanding and (occasionally) contrary little people.
What a very special place. May it never change. Scarlett, Marcus & children, February 2026
We had the best time ever!! The food cooked for us was the best we had in Sri Lanka so far and the team were absolutely amazing. Frances (Spain) & Ewa (Poland), February 2026
I had the most amazing time here in Kumbuk house. The most beautiful, tranquil setting. What made this stay more memorable were the fantastic team here. They made my stay in Mawella even more special. So happy to help with everything I needed. Malkanthi’s cooking is unreal…especially her prawn curry. Victoria, February 26
Wow, wow, wow! What an incredible place. Thank you so much to Malkanthi for the delicious food and all the laughter. Indrani for the beautiful flowers, your enthusiasm and your lovely smile. Thank you Ruhunu for always checking in on us and managing the property so well.
We have loved this peaceful paradise and felt so at home. See you soon!
Top recommendation is Mr Bandula’s surf lessons; the best instuctor. Rosie and Anna, (on a mother and daughter trip) March 2026
Oh my word, what an amazing place! Its a home away from home. A big thanks for the team for delicious cooking, all your help and delivering everything we asked for.
Sunday market in Tangalle was great for shopping. Hiriketiya was good for surf lessons and eating out. Nicholson family, April 2026
Thank you for for a wonderful holiday in the beautiful Mawella Beach Hideaway. We were so comfortable in the stunning house, Malkanthi’s food was delicious . A lovely day lazing by the pool, beach walks, lunch at the Halcyon - Superb. Rebecca & Richard, NZ, May 2026
