Pros:

Pokud chcete vidět NP Bundala, tak určitě doporučuji toto ubytování. Cítili jsme se tu skvěle. Nachází se v malé vesničce, která není vůbec turistická, takže jste pryč od všech lidí a užíváte si jen přírodu a nádherný výhled z ubytka. Pan domácí je nadšenec do přírody, takže vám toho hodně poví. Navíc jako malý bonus má strašně mazlivého kocoura:)

Ubytování má velmi pohodlnou postel a klimatizaci. Dostanete snídani i večeři:)

Pros:

Great stay with Chamin and his family. Lovely location looking over towards Bundala park. Room is comfortable, especially great view from the balcony. The highlight has to be the safari - we did both the evening and morning safari with them and they were fabulous. They're really knowledgeable and obviously passionate about the park and animals. Great overall stay.

Pros:

本达拉附近的住宿地点并不多，这家离本达拉非常近。房间简单但干净，风景很好。主人是一个很好的向导。晚餐时就给我们看了很多在本达拉拍到的照片，还热情地做了介绍。第二天早上，我们参加了他组织的Safari。他和司机师傅都非常热情、专业。即使不在最好的季节，他们也带我们看到了很多动物。他们提供的食物也很好吃。非常好的体验。

Cons:

没有

Pros:

Nádherný pobyt na úžasném místě,byli jsme tři noci,zůstali bychom déle.Chamin a jeho rodina byli velmi srdeční,opravdu jsme byli v nejlepší společnosti. Nejlepší hostitelé jaké jsme na svých cestách po světě potkali. Nic nebyl problém a přestože my neumíme anglicky, rozuměli jsme si...Doporučujeme výlet s Chaminem do NP Bundala, budete mít krásný zážitek.Lokalita je naprosto klidná a nejlepší místo pro pozorování a focení ptáků.Místní lidé jsou též velmi srdeční. A děti si zamilujete. Je to úplný ráj pro pozorování přírody. Kdo nehledá noční život v barech, hluk města a nákupní centra, vřele doporučuji. Chamine děkujeme za vše a zdravíme chlapce a manželku.

Cons:

Absolutně všechno se nám líbilo.

Pros:

We had a wonderful stay in Sri Lanka – such a beautiful and peaceful place! The location was quiet and relaxing, offering great value for money. The food was absolutely amazing – both breakfast and dinner were delicious and freshly prepared.

We also went on a safari with our host, Chamin, and it was an unforgettable experience. He took us to Bundala National Park, which is a truly stunning place that you must see. Chamin knows the park like the back of his hand, and his knowledge made the safari even more special.

Highly recommended!

A true peaceful haven in the heart of nature! The setting is magical, surrounded by rice fields and birds. The host is incredibly kind and attentive. The cottage is clean, comfortable, and beautifully decorated. A perfect place to unwind and reconnect with nature.

Pros:

Fantastic location overlooking the lagoon area. Our room had a nice balcony with a great view. Chamin was a great host and wildlife (particularly birding) expert and wildlife photographer. He will organise safaris around Bundala NP. Food was also great. We stayed at the end of April and still really loved it ..But will have to come back in Dec - Mar when there are many more birds.
