About this property

Luxury Beach Side Villa - private beach, outstanding exclusive chef and staff

Khomba Beach House is a stunning private villa with its own exclusive beachfront.

Set in six acres of lush tropical garden, you'll be completely spoilt by an excellent chef, butler and housekeeper who are dedicated to your every need and exclusively for you.

Situated 2 1/2 hours’ drive North of Colombo’s airport on the West Coast, it’s the only house of it’s kind on a privately owned, pristine beach. Unlike the beaches in the South, the calm waters have no currents so children are perfectly safe.

Step of your own beach into a boat to go and see the stunning daily display from the dolphin super pods, go a little further and see the migrating whales, or return inshore and scuba or snorkel off the reef, or just go fishing!

Set 150 metres back from the water’s edge, Khomba is designed on an open plan basis with high ceilings, fans, polished floors and overhanging eaves in order to enjoy the cool ocean breeze while also bathing in the glorious temperate light.

Khomba House comprises two separate large double bedrooms, with their own en-suite facilities. Each of these bedrooms has a further daybed suitable for small children. Adjoining bedroom one is a separate sitting room with three further daybeds.

The main 80 sq metre verandah provides a fantastic area in which to relax and look out at the sea views.

Khomba boasts one of the finest chefs in Sri Lanka. A mouth watering range of local delicacies awaits you, with daily supplies of fresh lobster, prawns and the daily catch and the freshest of local vegetables from the garden. Depending on your tastes the chef will cook to order.

At the end of the garden is one of the most brilliant beaches in Sri Lanka. Completely private, very few other people (just the occasional fisherman) and you have your own private beach hut.

While Khomba is completely private, within a short walk you will have access to three neighbouring boutique hotel, which has a swimming pool which they have kindly agreed our guests can use free of charge . In addition they have a beach side bar and restaurant if you can rip yourself away from Khomba.

The area is largely undiscovered, which means there are no beach hawkers and you're encouraged to help pull in the fishermens nets.


Our team of gardeners have built a tropical paradise in the six acre harden. With an abundance of fruit trees, a coconut grove, teak plantation and a fresh water pond stuffed with Koi carp, its a paradise for the stunning local birdlife. Aside from the many tropical birds, flashing with colour, and the 1,000's of dolphins which put on a daily display, turtles are often spotted on the beach in the evening and migratory whales can be found a little further out following the continental shelf.

Khomba has four bicycles which can be used to visit the neighbouring resorts, who have kindly allowed us to use their facilities, or venture further afield to the local town.

Aside from numerous hammocks and chill out spaces the garden also has a full size badminton/volleyball pitch.

Kalpitiya has a growing reputation for wind and kite surfing during the low season on the lagoon. There are numerous local schools offering courses for beginners and experienced surfers alike.

If you are planning to include Khomba Beach House as part of a longer tour of Sri Lanka, It falls on a route which would include Wiulpatu National Park, the cultural triangle and Kandy tea estates.

Khomba was selected as one of the best beach side properties in the world by Conde Nast Magazine.

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.

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!

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.

Could not be better
Khomba Beach was one of our best trips ever. The house is amazing, the staff fantastic, the food outstanding. We were two families with three younger kids. We did sightseeing and kitesurfing near Khomba House.

Fantastic stay at Khomba House
I have to say, Khomba house was the most beautiful, relaxing place we have ever stayed. And Sisera and Indrani are amazing. The food was heaven and now I am trying not to eat anything as can't fit into any of my clothes! Thanks so much for having us.

About the host

Hosted by Vicky Fuller

Host profile image
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.

Why they chose this property

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.

What makes this property unique

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.
