We have just returned from a two week stay at this little paradise and can honestly say we loved every second. The villa has everything that you could need, it is safe, well designed, comfortable and clean with a gorgeous outside area that backs directly onto an unspoilt quiet part of the beach. WiFi and air conditioning are excellent. The team that work at the villa are exceptional. Kind, genuine and welcoming, they make Taru Villa 906 what it is. Anthony, Withana and Wasana took the greatest care of us and our one year old daughter, going above and beyond on numerous occasions. The food made by Wasana is incredible, he is an exceptional chef. I can honestly say that we ate most of the food on the menu and every dish was delicious. Every time we ate out we regretted it as it would never be as good! If you are looking for somewhere where you can really relax, with great service, food and standard of accommodation then Taru Villa 906 is for you. We will certainly be back.

This hotel is truly a little gem! Staying here felt like having our own villa in Galle Fort. With only four rooms, we had the pleasure of occupying the spacious upstairs room, which was beautifully furnished in a charming colonial style. The bathroom was equally impressive—spacious and well-appointed, featuring both a luxurious shower and a lovely bathtub. Breakfast is served at a communal table in the stunning garden, which adds to the delightful experience. The staff were incredibly courteous and helpful; they even arranged for us to spend a beach day at another Taru Villa property, which we greatly appreciated. I highly recommend this hotel—we loved every moment of our stay!

Frequently asked questions

How much does an Anuradhapura holiday package cost?
You’ll find cheap prices from NZ$1,414 on Expedia for your Anuradhapura getaway. However, factors like the season, choice of hotel and length of stay will determine how much your holiday to Anuradhapura costs.
What are the cheapest months to go to Anuradhapura?
If you’d like to score a cheap Anuradhapura holiday package, consider visiting in May, October and November. You’ll usually find better prices on hotels and flights during these quieter months — perfect for travellers wishing to save money.
How many days is enough for Anuradhapura?
Anuradhapura holidays come in all shapes and sizes, but to really sink your teeth into this place, we’d suggest 2 days is a good ballpark. This will mean you can fit in top attractions like Mahasena’s Palace and Abhayagiri Dagoba and seek out some underrated spots. Don’t forget to visit neighbourhoods such as New Town and Wijayapura either. If you’re smart with your time, you may even be able to take a day trip from Anuradhapura too.
Is it worth booking a holiday package to Anuradhapura?
Whether you’re looking to explore key attractions like Anuradhapura Archaeological Museum and Isurumuniya Vihara on your Anuradhapura holiday, or coming for its great walking trails, history and culture, there’s something for everyone here. With so much to experience, you’ll quickly learn why so many visitors think Anuradhapura is a good holiday destination.
How to find the best Anuradhapura package deals?
Landing a cheap Anuradhapura package deal is a cinch with Expedia. After you’ve entered your travel dates and destination under our “Packages” tab, set your budget, apply a couple of filters and see what’s available.

Is it cheaper to book an Anuradhapura holiday as a package?
Expedia holiday packages are designed to give you more bang for your buck. Bundle your hotel, flight and car rental into one great-value price and you could save hundreds of dollars.
