Our brief stay at Ace Boutique Airport was nothing short of wonderful. Angelo and his wife went the extra mile, providing transport from the airport and even offering a better deal on a SIM card than the airport kiosks. The room was immaculate, showcasing their attention to detail. A delicious breakfast set a positive tone, and Angelo's assistance in arranging activities added a personal touch to our stay. Whether for a short transit or a longer visit, Ace Boutique Airport is a top choice. The genuine hospitality and commitment to guest satisfaction make it a standout destination. Highly recommended for a seamless and enjoyable stay.

The owner was extremely friendly and inteligent. He told us very interesting facts about Sri Lanka. We did not take him as a tour guide but we think he could be one of the best to choose from :) we had also dinner which was very tasty. Breakfast was european style but very good and big. Rooms/toilets were freshly build and extremely clean. Hot water and new AC was a cherry on top. Totally recommend!

    The pick up went smoothly although the vehicle was a touch too small for a family of 4 with luggage but it was a short trip and we managed. We were only staying to sleep after a late night arrival before heading down the coast so the location was perfect, only a few minutes from the airport. The pool looked nice although we didn't use it and the apartment was huge. Breakfast was served and met our expectations with omelettes and fresh fruits. We arrived on a public holiday but the hosts made an extra effort to get the fresh fruit for us.

    Conveniently close to airport. Quiet, new, clean. Comfortable, large bed. Hosts organised airport pick up, and then helped me with a late check out and drop off for a midnight flight next day. Just perfect for a peaceful relax before you travel onwards. Gracious and kind hosts, a generous breakfast with fresh fruit and salad sides. Great air con after you finish sunning yourself on the balcony. Internet was great, as I had a little work to finish. Thank you, perfect!

    Owner and his wife were lovely, staying up late on our arrival, making us coffee in the morning, allowing us the use of their kitchen and even bringing us bananas as we had a chill day on the balcony - super lovely hosts. Room was spacious as was the bathroom. Great location close to the airport and a cheap place to eat.
