Top Questions

Are pets allowed?

Although we love all pets, we might have members with potential allergies, so, unfortunately, we can’t allow people to bring pets with them. We want to make sure everyone can be happy in their communal home.

Is there a designated space for work?

You have plenty of flexible workspace options to suit your mood and your requirements for the day. We also have a dedicated coworking space upstairs.

Will I get the same room as on the photos?

The room you will be assigned might differ slightly from the photos but will match the room type. You are booking a room/bed by type, not a specific unit.

Can I tour the property first?

You don´t need to tour the property, and here is why:
- Properties on Coliving.com have pictures and a clear description of the community, rooms, and common areas. Most of them also have 3D or video tours.
- Restricting viewings provide equal opportunities for everyone, whether you are a local or live abroad. Plus, it preserves the privacy of our coliving communities.
- If anything is unclear, you can easily reach out to the property by clicking "Contact host" and ask for more details. Make sure your questions are not already covered in the description or the FAQ section.
- Coliving.com makes sure the coliving property is as advertised, by only sending any money to the operator 24h after you have successfully moved in.
- If the property substantially differ from what is advertiser, you report it to us and we will help you find another place.

Booking

What criteria do you use to evaluate potential renters?

We look for open-minded, considerate individuals who are looking for an opportunity to share a beautiful home with other exciting people.

What if the place is not as advertised?

If the accommodation is not suitable, please contact the staff on arrival and they will do their best to find a mutually agreeable solution.

You can cancel free of charge before you pay. After payment, the listing's cancellation policy applies.

What if I don’t know exactly how long I want to stay?

Policies

Is it permissible to have visitors during the day/night?

We love it when you have guests, and we invite them to enjoy our inviting common areas. Please keep guests out of the bedrooms for everyone's comfort and avoid overnight stays. We also recommend keeping your valuables secure, as we can’t take responsibility for personal belongings.

Amenities

What potential costs are there besides the rent?

We suggest considering renters insurance to help protect your belongings. While your rent covers your living space, everyday expenses like food, transportation, and personal items remain your responsibility.

Any meals/snacks included?

Meals and snacks aren’t included, but you'll have full access to a well-equipped kitchen for preparing your favorite dishes at any time. Plus, with grocery stores just around the corner, everything you need is within reach.

Are the private bedrooms cleaned frequently?

Yes, your private bedroom is cleaned every week—with fresh linens and towel changes—to keep it comfortable and welcoming. We kindly ask you to help maintain that cozy vibe by tidying up any extra mess.

Community

How many people will be living here during my stay?

We usually host between 6 and 8 guests. The space can accommodate up to 12 people if rooms are shared (typically two people per room). Most stays are single-occupancy, though couples or friends sometimes share a twin room.

Is there a house/community manager?

Yes. The community manager is responsible for maintaining a good atmosphere in the house and the well-being of the members.

Safety

Can I lock my bedroom door?

Yes — each bedroom has a lock so you can secure your space. We provide keys and spare keys are available if needed. If you'd like help with a lock or a replacement key, our team is happy to assist you.

Nearby

Are there any good restaurants nearby?

Just a few minutes' walk away, you'll discover a variety of excellent, budget-friendly restaurants to explore.

What public transportation is available?

Even though our location is good if you'd like to walk or bike, it's a short distance to the bus station.

How far is it to the nearest airport?

Need to catch a flight? The nearest international airport is about three hours away by taxi. Regular buses run roughly every 30 minutes from Matara and take a similar amount of time. Pricing depends on availability. Our team is happy to help with travel tips or recommend reliable transfer options.
