Villa Helgoland is a guest house in Aluthgama on the south-west coast of Sri Lanka run by Suneth. This guest house is only 60 km from Colombo Bandaranaike International airport. You do not have to worry about transport, because Suneth will pick you up and drop you off at the airport. Villa Helgoland offers spacious rooms with comfortable beds and private bathrooms. There is also a big living room
and a kitchen where you will be served delicious Sri Lankan breakfasts. It takes only a few minutes to walk from Villa Helgoland to stunning Bentota Beach or Moragalla Beach. After swimming in the warm waters of the Ocean you can lay down on a beach chair with a glass of fresh papaya juice in your hand. If you prefer slightly more active holiday then you are in the perfect area for water sports, snorkelling tours, canoeing and diving courses. In Alutghama you can spend hours trying original colourful clothes on, admiring handicrafts, and hunting for beautiful souvenirs. Tea is an obvious purchase, as well as spices! It is also hard to resist the beauty of local jewellery. Showrooms and local dealers offer magnificent designs of gold and silver necklaces, rings and earrings with precious and semiprecious stones. After shopping you can try a traditional Sri Lankan meal in a local restaurant or just simply boost your energy levels drinking King Coconut water straight from the coconut shell. When you have seen enough of Aluthgama, Suneth can organize a trip to show you some of the World Heritage Sites in Sri Lanka. You can go to Dambulla - the cave temple with extraordinary paintings and awe-inspiring views. You can choose to visit the heart of Sri Lankan culture and go to Kandy. Kandy is the home of The Temple of The Tooth Relic, one of the most sacred places of worship in the Buddhist world. You might wish to go to Galle Fort, Sigirija, Polonnaruwa, or Anuradhapura. Not to miss is the Pinnawala Elephant oprhanage, turtle watching in Kosgoda, and a boat trip through the Bentota river. With Suneth as your private local tour guide, you will have the opportunity to fully experience each of these places.
