Mandalay Lake Villa
This lovely villa is a gem rests on a peaceful area of the massive Koggala Lake about 25 mins from the historic town of Galle. The house has 2 double rooms and a twin – all with ensuite bathrooms and air con. The master suite is upstairs and has floor to ceiling doors that open fully to reveal beautiful views across the garden and lake and there is a also a private terrace. There is a tub in the bathroom as well as shower. The pool side pavilion overlooks the pool, garden & lake. It’s open sides allow the breeze & it has a dining table as well as comfortable seating. In addition there is a garden pagola full of cushions in the corner of the garden next to the lake. Being on a lake you would expect the fish on your plate to be fresh and sure enough local fishermen will bring their catch to the private jetty. The house is actually in the quiet village of Kathaluwe that plays host to the famous Giniwella temple and the ancient Kathaluwa temple known for its Buddhist murals.

If you're in search of indulgence, peace, and privacy in a breathtaking setting, then Mandalay Lake Villa in Ahangama is the place to be. Our time at this unique property was truly magical, and we savored the excellent cuisine under the lead of chef Chinthaka and the team's love, care, and warmth. Thank you very much. We eagerly look forward to our next visit. In the meantime, we wish you every success and good health.

We had an amazing nearly week long stay at Mandalay Lake Villa. The manager/chef Chinthaka, and his team took very good care of us. The food was superb, the service was beyond exceptional, and the rooms were very comfortable. Great place to visit with family and friends

The premises is quiet and serene with a breathtaking view of madol duwa which is covered with lush greenery. There are 3 bedrooms. Whole first floor contains with the majestic master bedroom with an open bathroom directly connected to the living room at the ground floor from a stair way. One of the two bedrooms in the ground floor has two single beds with attached bathroom. The other one has a king size bed and a large bath room partially open to sky.There’s a large pool with a deep end and best thing was the natural warmness of water even in the night (might be because of the warm weather) Food was good & staff was very supportive and friendly.Info for movie plans-The TV they had was small & unable to connect to Netflix since the tv version was outdated. The HDMI cable was also broken.

Spent an idyllic 4 days in this pretty, dreamy villa by the lake. It's an amazing location, albeit a little far from all the action- you would need a vehicle to get to areas with restaurants etc. The pool is lovely, the entire staff is very kind and helpful. And did I mention the location? It's lovely! My only issues were1. When it rained, everything leaked- including in the master bedroom and the open air living space 2. The master bedroom/bathroom have no privacy and can get to be a nuisance when you have kids etc. 3. The master bathroom itself is kind of poorly designed- there is no counter space at the washbasin, the shower door opens outwards and the water overflows and wets the mats thoroughly, the WC is open in the bathroom which would be fine except that the entire bathroom is open- so like I said before, zero privacy. These issues aren't there in the other bedrooms.A big shout out to Chintaka and Dulci (I hope I spelt it correctly!)!!! Thank you!

Without exaggeration this is one of the most amazing place I've ever stayed. The Villa is simply magnificent, well kept and decorated with a simple and a luxurious standard. The staff is incredibly nice and make one feel very welcome. One of the highlights was the food, amazingly cooked by the house chef. Totally recommended..
Location
Situated on Lake Koggala’s shoreline with a view of the well-known island of Madol Duwa. Located 700 meters from Matara Road, 20 minutes from Galle Fort and 20 minutes from Welligama’s surfing beaches. Despite being secluded, your lakeside retreat is close to everything.
