    Located outside of Jaffna town, off the main road, easily accessable by bus. Owner Dilan is very helpful, arranges Jaffna islands and Point Pedro round trips with tuktuk. Also could use a bicycle for extended excursions. The train line behind the house was not disturbing as trains do not operate during night. Breakfast is delicious and plentiful. Dilan is also owner of D'Villa Garden House. I recommend staying here.

    This historic 4 room villa has been beautifully renovated and is a quiet oasis in a busy city. Its location is also very good, being a 20-30 minute walk to the fort, the Jaffna library, central markets and the impressive Nallur Kovil. The pool is lovely for a refreshing dip and downtime after a busy day sightseeing. Madhu, Sutha and all the staff were very friendly and helpful. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at Thambu Illam.
