Natures Bliss Garden Stay, hotel in Colombo

Featuring a garden, an outdoor pool and garden views, Natures Bliss Garden Stay is located in Ja-Ela. Boasting full-day security, this property also provides guests with a picnic area.

The location is excellent—cool and safe, providing a peaceful environment with no vehicle noise. The hot water facility was top-notch and very convenient. However, we were disappointed that free Wi-Fi was not provided, which would have made our stay even better.

    The cosy ambience.. from the room to the porch, and from the garden to the beach (the overlooking stretch of beach is super clean and undisturbed by locals).

    Great homestay with just a few rooms. Rooms and bathroom were clean, enjoyed hearing the sound of the sea just outside our door. Location is conveniently near airport. The thing that stood out for us was the service and the food. The young man was extremely friendly and kind, served up great local food, explained the menu, checked in on us during and after our meals. We enjoyed our stay!
