Resorts in Kandy

My husband and I spent four amazing nights at Celestial Hills in Kandy for our honeymoon, and I can honestly say it was the most magical place we’ve ever stayed. From the moment we arrived, we felt like we had stepped into a hidden paradise. We stayed in one of their beautiful villas, and the staff made sure we felt like royalty the entire time. Every night, they decorated our room in a different, special way, knowing we were there for our honeymoon. On Diwali, they truly went above and beyond—lighting candles, creating a stunning Ganesha on our bed with flowers, and leaving a mixture of Indian and Sri Lankan sweets for us. This thoughtful touch meant so much, especially as it was our first Diwali away from home. The villa itself was stunning—spacious with incredible views of the valley and sunrise. Every morning, we woke up to a breathtaking view, watching the sky change from purple to orange. It was like something out of a nature documentary, only better because we were there to experience it firsthand. Our private pool and large balcony made it even more special—we had breakfast there most mornings, taking in the serene atmosphere. Leaving each day for sightseeing felt like we were leaving heaven, but returning in the evening always felt like coming back to it. The service at Celestial Hills is by far the best I’ve ever experienced, and I’ve traveled quite a bit. From the moment we arrived, Andrew, the resident manager, welcomed us with pineapple achar and tea. Throughout our stay, he stayed in contact via WhatsApp, making sure we had everything we needed. No matter what we asked for, it was brought to us within minutes. Andrew truly went out of his way to make our stay perfect. Everyone we met was so warm and welcoming, it didn’t even feel like we were at a hotel—it felt like we were staying with family. The chefs, in particular, were incredible.

The rooms are amazing and the views are exceptional and will stay with me for a long time. The people working there were lovely and went out of their way to accommodate us. The food was excellent.

My stay at this hotel was an absolute pleasure! From the moment we arrived, the staff were extremely kind and professional. The rooms were clean, comfortable, and perfectly maintained, and the overall atmosphere of the hotel was calm and welcoming. What truly stood out was the kitchen. The head chef is simply amazing ❤️ every dish was a work of art, beautifully presented and even more delicious to taste. everything was fresh, flavorful, and prepared with great care. I also want to highlight the waiter S, who was exceptionally friendly and professional – always smiling, quick, and ready to recommend the best options from the menu. His service made us feel truly special as guests. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone who wants to combine a relaxing stay with top-quality food and outstanding service. I will definitely be coming back! 🥹

The owners were so nice it was like home away from home they prepared beautiful vegetarian dinner for us and a packed breakfast as we left early, beautiful clean room with super comfy beds I would definitely return.

Pleasant reception, very sympathetic and helpful management; exceptionally good and professional kitchen; quiet and comfortable hotel located just outside, but conveniently close to, the Kandy city centre.

What a great little place. We are welcomed by the mother of the house and we have diner in their kitchen were she prepares wonderful dishes. In the morning we choose what we want and she gets everything fresh the same day. Wake up to the sound of birds chirping away and monks praying in nearby monestaries

Everything was good. Staff all good. food great

Over all experience was satisfactory.. Staff sincerity and care of guest was outstanding. GM Mr. Dayan and Head Chef Mr. Suranga looks always active and make sure everything goes perfect. Highly Recommend Property.

Melheim Villas Kandy is a tranquil getaway nestled in the hillside above Kandy. Our room was spacious clean and well equipped, the bed very comfortable, the bathroom clean and the water hot. Out balcony looked out over a stunning forested valley (see pics). Breakfast and dinner were generous and most delicious. And the staff were excellent! So nice, obliging and professional. They really made us feel so well looked after, and they kept us very well fed. We enjoyed walking into town. And to the botanical gardens via the university - well worth a visit. We loved our stay, and only wish we could have stayed longer.
