Photos and Description of the West Coast Sri Lanka vacation apartment rental

The Icebear Beach Hotel Negombo is probably the best guesthouse in town. The property is owned since 1979 by Gerd Arthur Haisch, a retired Swiss citizen. Living at the property is he with his tasteful handwriting personal responsible for your wellbeing. Stephen Short’s lovely recommendation in Time Magazine is honouring The Icebear as 'a hotel where time stands still', remembering “there is a memory in every moment at The Icebear”. The private family guesthouse is located on the broad stretch of sandy beach in Negombo, West coast, one Hour from Colombo and fifteen minutes from the airport - perfect for first few days after arrival and last few nights before departure - but keep care: Many of our sun hungry guests come back for long stays: this is why the Icebear is offering now two splendid holiday apartments in European Style, located in the garden behind with direct access to the beach road, known as Lewis Place, and access to the beach 20 metres away.
