Nothing

the breakfast, the pool, the nice host, clean room and area and not too far from the beach

the canal view is less nice than expected ;)

lovely pool and stylish layout

We had our last night in Sri Lanka here, and generally it was a good value for money deal, with the room and breakfast being good.

The outdoor area was a bit unclean and run-down at daylight and although we have read about the many cats, we were a bit annoyed but the sheer number of them and some of them looked also quite poorly

We stayed here at the end of our trip having also stayed at the beginning, because we loved the place so much. The owners are such lovely people. if you like cats and like to relax in a quiet place in a location only a short distance from the airport then this place is perfect. The breakfast is delicious and they also have opened a restaurant nearby where the food is amazing. The swimming pool is nice and clean and they also can arrange massages and spa treatments nearby which we really enjoyed.

nothing, it is perfect as an introduction to Sri Lanka of as a place to relax before going home.

When we arrived here it immediately felt good. Such a lovely place. It actually looks even better than the pictures. The owners are so friendly and have also a good restaurant in town that you should try out! It is al clean and nice corners to sit and a pool. Breakfast was also good and big portion. We are definitely coming back soon.

Staff was absolutely amazing and took great care of us. We loved the pets running around the hotel and rooms were big and clean. Also the breakfast was excellent! Thank you so much!

amazing oasis in a quiet area of negombo. lovely swimming pool. The owners are the friendliest people ever and such a wealth of info on Sri Lanka lovely cats.

Everything was great!

Quiet area and beautiful/cozy rooms with many cats around.

1. No phone in the room. 2. Not able to find the staff sometimes. 3. Many mosquitoes. 4. The fan level of the A/C in our room is not able to adjust (which stays at maximum all the time and it's loud).

Very nice villa with helpful owner.

Lot of cats and barking dogs in the hotel

Cozy, friendly and helpful staff and owners, quiet, many cats and with a swimming pool in the middle of it all! Will come back

Everything was clean, very friendly and nice staff, good location. Perfect place to stay after or before you fly. We really like how they take care of cats that they rescued from the street

We love everything here. It’s lovier than what the photo shown. A great place to chill out. Super calm and relaxing. We could just spend whole day here enjoying my time. The room is well maintained, clean and cozy. Staffs are kind and helpful. breakfast is nice. The swimming pool is friendly to me who just learnt to swim. Location is also great. 5mins walk to the beach side. lots of restaurants there. The owner’s rescued many cats and dogs. There are around 10cats and 2 dogs now. They are all very well taken care of and are friendly. You won’t disappointed if you choose here. Give it a try. We definitely will come back if we come to Negambo again.

This is now my "go to" place to stay whenever I am in Negombo, so that should tell you everything! I stayed here both at the start and at the end of my holiday. The hosts are wonderful and go out of their way to make your stay a positive experience. The location is really quiet yet only a few minutes walk away from Beach Road and the beach itself. The pool is crystal clear and the breakfast is excellent. If you need any local information or help with onward transportation then don't hesitate to ask them to arrange it - the drivers they use are really reliable and offer very good rates. The driver they found to take me down to Tangalle and then to pick me up from Polhena Beach and bring me back to Negombo was wonderful - he even called ahead to my guest house in Polhena to confirm his arrival time! An added bonus for many will be the gorgeous cats that the owners have rescued - they are incredibly well looked-after, well-behaved and unobtrusive, but they won't say no to being petted if you feel so inclined :-) If you are looking for a great dining experience while in Negombo the owners how have a restaurant - Centella Bistro - on Beach Road, about 15 minutes walk away and the food is really good! I ate there twice and was not disappointed.

Nothing!!!!

The rooms are of western standard and very clean and kept good care of. Probably the best bathroom we had in all of Sri Lanka. The bed is comfortable and big. Amazing value stay not far from the main road but in a very quit place. On the ground floor they have a lot of the cutest and friendliest stray animals that they take care of. We had an amazing time playing with the cats and dogs. ans were very sad to leave them.

Really enjoyed my stay here! The rooms are spacious, clean and cozy. The people running the hotel are very friendly and helpful! Would definitely recommend booking here:)

We had a great time at villa kapuru. They have a lot of cats, they rescued them and take care of them. We have a lot of respect for that!! Furthermore, the accommodation itself is very nice!

Nothing.

Super clean, nice accommodation. The cats paradise with helpful staff.

My first stay in sri lanka couldnt have been better. I was here for 5 days and even though it rained for 3 of them I had a wonderful time. This is such a calm and genuine place. Loved the company of cats and dogs. While it was raining I sat upstairs with magic view and a book! Comfortble bed, Nice bathroom, Nice pool. The owners have a wonderful restaurant at the Beach Street. Really tasty and affordable food.

If you are a light sleeper bring earplug, the frogs are loud at night!

The house is beautiful and there are so many nice places to sit which are outside the room but still within the house. The pool is really fun and just long enough to swim. We opted for the Sri Lankan breakfast with fruit and curd and were very happy. The staff was amazing and helped us find taxis and they even arranged for us to have massages at an ayurvedic place near by. The center offer a great range for a very good fee. The staff are real animal lovers and there are many rescue cats in the garden and courtyard. When they find an abandoned kitten, starving and ill, they take them to the vet and nurse them back to health. The asked when we arrived whether we would like them to keep the cats in a cage while we were there, but as none of us was allergic we did not mind and the kittens are really super cute.

I cannot think of anything that can be improved. We had a perfect stay.

Villa Kapuru is such an oasis in Negombo. We really enjoyed the atmosphere around the pool that was surrounded by so many plants and comfortable sun beds. The rooms are very big and clean with a comfortable bed. The shower was one of the best we had in Sri Lanka after 30 days of travelling. The owners are very nice and offered us a lot of help and gave some great tips. Breakfast was delicious and plenty too. The best thing about this place are the kittens though. There are many of them and the hotel manager rescued them from the street and takes very good care including medical treatment. Thank you for having such a big heart for those cats and dogs in need. It was very inspiring to see. Keep up your amazing work! It was the perfect place for our last night and I wish we could have stayed longer.
