Sky Blue Villa, hotel in Trincomalee

Set in Trincomalee, 800 metres from Dutch Bay Beach and 1.1 km from Sandy Cove Beach, Sky Blue Villa offers air conditioning.

We had a fantastic time at Sky Blue Villa! We booked the entire villa, which has 3 rooms—two of them equipped with A/C, making our stay very comfortable. The rooms were spotless, spacious, and well-maintained, offering a great mix of comfort and relaxation. The villa also has a fully equipped kitchen with a gas cooker and all the necessary cooking utensils, which was a huge plus for us as we enjoyed making our own meals. Everything we needed was readily available. The owner was incredibly kind and attentive, making sure we had everything we needed for a pleasant stay. Overall, a great experience! Highly recommend for anyone looking for a peaceful and comfortable place to stay.

    Stayed here with our 16 year old ,we wanted to experience staying in a cabana . Great location, very close to the beach, sea safe for swimming and beach clean compared to Trincomalee beaches. Host and his family were so friendly and helpful. Organised our boat trip, tuk tuk rides and onwards travel. Food at their restaurant was excellent, tasty , freshly cooked and good price. So glad we stayed here and not at one of the bigger commercialised properties. Great value. Thank you for a lovely stay.

    We are a family of 5 including 3 kids, stayed at Vistara Guest house during our Trinco visit. We booked the entire house. The guest house was very clean & very spacious to accommodate our family. We really enjoyed the view from the guest house. Having a food city on the ground floor was very convenient to get the items needed during our stay. The host was very helpful and accommodated our requests to make our stay very comfortable.

    Nice hotel, clean, comfortable, great location - practically on the beach. The owner is a great host, super helpful and responsive on WhatsApp. Scooter rental available at the property. On our last evening we took a cooking class with the owners wife which was great. The food was tasty. Very good price as well. The owner also kindly arranged a taxi back to Negombo for us for an unbeatable price. Recommended.
