Pros:

לכו לישון שם!!! איזה מקום, פיסת גן עדן!!! חדרים מרווחים, נקיים ומדהימים, בריכה מתוקה באמצע צמחייה פראית, ארוחת בוקר מפנקת, והמארחים כל כך מקסימים (כולם מקסימים בסרי לנקה- אבל הם באמת היו יוצאים מן הכלל). קיבלו אותנו עם שייק אבטיח טרי, דאגו לנו לטוקטוק כשהיינו צריכים, והכל באמת בחיוביות ואהבה. מקום רומנטי, התבאסנו שלא היה חדר פנוי להאריך את השהות שלנו שם... לחלוטין נשמח לחזור ולהישאר כמה ימים רצופים!

Relaxing location, loved the pool
Pros:

We had such a fantastic stay at this homestay. Our family of 5 stayed comfortably in the pool villa. We spent a lot of time swimming and sitting by the pool which was right outside our door in a tropical setting. It was easy to get a tuk tuk around. The owners were so friendly and attentive.

Cons:

Nothing, it was great!

Staff, location and facilities were all exceptional!
Pros:

Loved absolutely everything about our recent 2 night stay here - only wished that we had of stayed longer! The host family were so lovely and accommodating. They helped us to organise transport, made great recommendations and provided a nice big breakfast daily. The air con worked well, immaculately clean large room and bathroom (good hot water shower). Great value for money. So glad that we booked the private villa with own pool, such a treat! Peaceful setting that was still not far in a tuk tuk to restaurants etc.

Cons:

Nothing to not like!

Hidden gem
Pros:

This charming homestay is a true hidden gem. Nestled in a beautiful garden filled with fruit trees, it offers a peaceful and relaxing atmosphere that feels like a home away from home. The small pool is a lovely addition, perfect for cooling off and unwinding after a day of exploring.

What truly makes this place special, however, are the incredibly kind and welcoming hosts. They create a warm, family-like environment that makes every guest feel genuinely cared for. Each morning, they prepare delicious and varied breakfasts, always fresh and thoughtfully made.

If you're looking for a quiet, authentic, and heartwarming place to stay, this homestay is simply perfect.

Ein magischer Ort
Pros:

Die Unterkunft war unser Lieblingsort auf unserer 7 wöchigen Sri Lanka Reise. Es hat einfach alles gestimmt. Die Gastgeber sind sehr freundlich, das Frühstück lecker und sehr vielfältig, der Pool sehr sauber und mal nicht (wie in Sri Lanka üblich) warm, das Zimmer komfortabel und sauber. Die Unterkunft liegt mitten in der Natur, eine Nacht haben wir sogar Elefanten aus der Ferne gehört und gesehen. Es ist ein magischer Ort, an den wir gerne zurück kommen.

Cons:

Alles super.

Aanrader
Pros:

Zeer mooi verzorgd verblijf met een aangenaam privé zwembad.
Uitgebreid ontbijt.
Heel vriendelijke eigenaars.
De hond 'Rex' blaft als er s avonds of s nachts olifanten dichtbij komen. (Terrein is veilig afgemaakt met stroomdraad). Zo hadden we het geluk een wilde olifant van dichtbij te spotten.

Perfect!
Pros:

They are the most incredible, generous hosts! Everything was perfect. We ate a family of 5 (2 adults, 3 kids), and we had the villa with private pool, which was absolutely perfect!
The food is delicious, and the hosts will do anything for you to make sure you have an exceptional stay.
It was the perfect base for Dambulla Caves / the Lion Rock etc. They will always call you a Tuktuk to get you wherever you want to go. Special shout out to our tuktuk driver, who was absolutely incredible. Wherever we went, he would take us via very interesting things to see, and give us so much information.
There is also a Peacock that sometimes visits, and we were even lucky enough to see a wild elephant walk past at night time.
Incredible place, with incredible people!

Cons:

Absolutely nothing.

Endroit parfait
Pros:

Nous avons TOUT aimé!
La chambre familiale est très bien pensée. Tout est parfait : produits de salle de bain, sèche cheveux, climatisation, ventilateur, frigo, thé et café et bouilloire à disposition, prises près des lits sur table de chevet, terrasse agréable, …. Chambre impeccable et faite tous les 2 jours.
Les petits déjeuner sont gargantuesques et très bons : sucré et salé.
Toutes les propositions de chauffeurs et Tuktuk à un prix plus que correct. Vraiment les propriétaires sont adorables et aux petits soins tout en restant très discrets.
Nous sommes restés 4 jours et ce fut le meilleur endroit de notre séjour.
