Taru Villas - Lake Lodge sits down a quiet residential lane at Alvis Terrace in Colpetty, Colombo 3, in a central part of the city yet away from its traffic. Kollupitiya Railway Station is 0.7 km away and Kompannavediya Station 1.1 km, and the family-owned lodge, one of the first accredited tourist accommodations in Sri Lanka, has been welcoming guests for over 40 years.
The lodge is 29 km as the crow flies from Bandaranaike International Airport at Katunayake, and the drive of about 32 km along the Airport Expressway usually takes 30 to 45 minutes, with taxis and hired cars available to and from the airport at any hour.
