Cafe Ceylon… I honestly love this place and I’m genuinely sad that we’re leaving. The atmosphere here is incredibly calm, warm, and welcoming. The staff is amazing – always smiling, kind, and natural, making you feel comfortable from the very first moment. There is a swimming pool and a clean, beautiful courtyard with sunbeds, perfect for relaxing. What I really appreciate is that there is no minimum spend and no pressure to order anything, which is quite rare and makes the place feel very free and relaxed. There is also a coworking area, so if you need to work in peace, this is a perfect spot. And the pinsa… absolutely incredible I highly recommend Emilia and Famia – real highlights. If you are in Ahangama and need a bit of peace away from the noise and crowds, this is exactly the place you want to be. Great energy, great people, great food. Highly recommended – I will definitely come back

We were staying there between 15 and 29 January 2026. Amazing location, with very high quality restaurant and cafe. Good quality of beds and sanitary devices, though bear in mind that it's Sri Lanka, so think smaller Greek islands 10 years ago when you imagine the rooms. We stayed in the Villa, which is best to rent as a group, so you benefit from the rooms and the common space, which is exclusive to the guests of the villa. The owner is a great person,with a fascinatingt life story and contagious positive energy. We will surely return.

Café Ceylon is one of those places that quietly turns a normal day into a memory you keep replaying. We were there for the most recent market day and had an absolute blast from start to finish. The vibe was buzzing but relaxed, the kind of energy that makes you want to stay longer than planned. What really stood out was how welcoming it was for families. Our four-year-old was in heaven. Kids activities, face painting, splashing in the pool, and happily demolishing the food with zero complaints, which is the highest possible review from a small human. Daddy was equally happy, for the record. Great food, a joyful crowd, and a space where kids can be kids while adults actually get to relax and enjoy themselves. Café Ceylon absolutely nailed it. We will be back for the next market day without a doubt.

My absolute favorite place! This spot truly has it all. Whether you need to focus on work or simply unwind, the atmosphere is ideal. The highlight is the large, immaculately clean, and well-maintained pool – it's simply fantastic. The place is wonderfully family-friendly and always peaceful. Adding to the charm is the delightful owner – she is incredibly kind, welcoming, and a pleasure to talk to. The evenings are magical with movie nights on the projector! The food is delicious, and the whole place radiates comfort. I highly recommend it to everyone!

This is our 2nd time going there. The place is lovely, the atmosphere is nice. The servers are very friendly. We got a few pizzas, salad, burger, prawns bowl and sandwiches and we fairly enjoyed it. The food was very tasty, fresh. The only problem is that it takes some time to get the food, but otherwise it was very nice.

We visited the restaurant and were able to use the spacious pool after placing an order – a great bonus. We ordered the “Rice and Curry,” which was okay, though we’ve had it better at other restaurants. The staff was friendly and attentive. Overall, a pleasant experience, especially if you want to enjoy the pool.

Had an amazing experience, at Café Ceylon ,throughout the months of my visit. Generally speaking it’s a beautiful place to chill with friends, and the food is fresh and of good quality, but I’ve gotta admit, that there are some better restaurants in town. I really recommend this place, especially since it’s family friendly, and there’s tons of activities there.
