Every correspondence from owner Niki starts with "Greetings from Peaceful Maya" & that is so true. If you want serenity & calm there are few better places than this. Niki was brilliant at handling our booking request - rarely have we had such help & attention to detail before we had even arrived. We took the seaplane down from Colombo... More

Our stay at Maya was very peacefull and also the food expirience was great! The rooms are good and well equipped. The bed was a little bit to hard.The staff was very kindly, they know their job. We stay for 3 nights and have had a very good time.

We stayed in the Amangalle , then the Amanwella . The food, cocktails and generous hospitality was way and beyond. Beautiful stylish rooms. A wonderful oasis. I would defiantly return? It is not easy to find good food in Sri Lanka , this was how I imagine was eating at home in Sri Lanka .

We booked our holiday late and were unimpressed by value-for-money of the remaining available hotels on the beach around Tangalle, so we chose Maya. In general it was really lovely.

Friends and I took the whole house for Christmas - it was superb. We were wonderfully looked after by Parera, Dinesh and the team. The lovely house is in a great setting with every available comfort and generous service. Many thanks to Nikki and your crew of wonderful guys Hugs

My girlfriend and I stayed for just two nights not knowing beforehand quite how wonderful the place is, if we didn't have a full itinerary we certainly would have stayed on! It was her birthday and once we had settled in, had a dip in the pool and a G&T over looking the imaculate garden, the team at Maya had... More
