Ensconced amidst its surroundings of wilderness is a stunning and contemporary villa atop a hillock that overlooks the Weligama Bay in southern Sri Lanka. Prized for its sleek, cutting-edge and modern architecture, meet Villa Vista, which is designed by
Cottage
Villa Vista consists of a main villa and a cottage, which together can accommodate up to 9 guests maximum. In the main villa, there are 3 bedrooms with ensuite bathrooms, which are made up of a Master Bedroom with a king-sized bed, Bedroom 1 with its queen-sized bed and Bedroom 2 with its queen-sized bed and an extra single bed to fit 3 pax. Meanwhile, the private 1-room cottage comes with a queen-size bedding that sleeps 2, and has a private pool to boot. Decked in wood for its wall panels, flooring and ceilings for all the rooms, they conjure a cosy, warm and intimate atmosphere while facing soothing sea views for blissful days.
Hut
A private driveway takes guests via a secure access and entry into the villa. And voila, a 60ft infinity pool that runs the length of the villa’s interiors and which overlooks the large manicured tropical garden and Weligama Bay lies waiting to surprise the unsuspecting guest! There is a moving platform that can slide across the pool for guests to have fun with and possibly even sit on or lie across the water surface.
One of the unique elements that is a brainchild of the villa’s master architect is the main living area that opens out to the infinity pool outside and beyond, where the bays and distant hills are located. Also a highlight are the intersecting panels of the floors, walls and ceilings to frame the 3 different views that can be visible from indoors, namely the ocean that can be seen from the jungle in the valley, the spectacular view of Weligama Bay from the living space and the views of the cliffs. The villa also consists of a fully-equipped gym, a fully-equipped kitchen, a dining area and read this: a movie room with underwater windows looking into the pool!
The rooms at Villa Vista are fitted with air-conditioning, room darkening shades as well as extra pillows and blankets for guests’ comfort. There is complimentary WiFi Internet for use, books and reading materials at guests’ disposal, a dedicated workspace, and which guests can also request for a massage therapist from the staff to have massage sessions performed for them on site.
The villa is close to some great surfing spots in Mirissa, Weligama, which are good for beginners and also Midigama. Various water activities can be arranged from the Mirissa harbour, which is just a 5-minute drive away, and among them are whale watching, guided snorkelling tour, stand-up paddle boarding, sunset cruise, surfing lessons, diving, as well as sea and river kayaking. There is also a private beach just a 5-minute walk downhill where guests can enjoy sundown drinks or be part of a barbeque at the summer hut.
10/10This Villa is something special. We went here for a bachelor party and was a big group. The staff was really welcoming and made the us the most delicious local food. We came late but just in time to see the sunset and enjoying the beautiful view from the sundeck and pool. There is a separate little house/room where we stayed and here we had out own private pool also. It was amazing to be able to enjoy this in a privat setting as well. Everything was clean, and well maintained. If you're a couple, a big or a small group this is defiantly something to experience. We are already planning out next stay here.
10/10One of the best private villas in Matara Weligama area. Lovely location ! Sea front! Amazing view! Beautiful swimming pool overlooking the Indian Ocean. Nice to have a beer 🍺 or a glass of wine 🍷 looking at the sunset. Manager is a nice gentleman and managing the place very well.
10/10This is the most beautiful villa for rent in Mirissa. It has the best view of Weligama Bay, the building is made by celebrity Japanese architect Shigeru Ban. It is stunning visually and the service here is brilliant, efficient and kind. The rooms are spacious, there’s an infinity pool, a gym and ample space to have guests over.
10/10The photos don't do this place justice, I fell completely in love. The second I walked in and saw the views I was awestruck by the magnificent views, we stayed in Sri Lanka for a month and we spent most of our trip at Villa Vista. The crew became like family ♥️ Special thanks to Vish, Promod, Parsanna and Asha.
10/10Very attentive staff, despite staying in the cottage, they let us have breakfast or use the pool in the main villa. As for the Cottage, the facilities are dreamy. Good pool, large sink and wardrobe. The bed is very comfortable. Everything is great
10/10It was a pleasure staying here. We were celebrating our honeymoon and they made a romantic setting in the room for us which was a nice touch. Breakfast was great every day with different options and they were flexible with the time. The rooms were very clean and spacious. It's a short walk through the villa grounds to the private beach which ls great to relax with your partner or family, also a short drive to the more busy beaches so it was perfect to have option of both.
