How much does it cost to rent a villa or house in Unawatuna for a month (long-term rental)?

For a small villa in Unawatuna or nearby Talpe and Habaraduwa, a couple seeking a long-term rental is budgeting up to $350 per month, with reliable Wi-Fi, air conditioning, hot water, and a private kitchen as key requirements.

For a 4-bedroom villa or house near the beach in Unawatuna, expect a budget of around $1,000–1,500 per month.

If a villa has a pool, travelers are often willing to pay above the $1,000–1,500 budget — such options are considered a priority.

Families with young children look for a 2-bedroom apartment or villa with air conditioning, two double beds, a kitchen, and hot water close to the beach — at a budget-friendly but comfortable price.

Long-term bookings for the high season (December-February) are usually made for 2-3 months, arranged several months in advance.

A family with two kids (age 10 and 10 months) looked for a beachside villa for one month in February — a typical request pattern for family stays during that season.
