Pros:

Beautiful views and a warm welcome
This place is located a bit outside of Kandy and offers an absolutely amazing view over the green hills – truly a highlight of the stay. It’s a perfect spot to relax and enjoy the peaceful surroundings.
The host was very kind and welcoming, and the room was comfortable and well maintained.
I especially enjoyed having breakfast with such a beautiful view – a great way to start the day.
I would definitely recommend staying here when visiting Kandy!

Comfy & beautiful view
Pros:

The view is incredible!! The bed and pillows were really comfy we slept very well!

Cons:

It is quite a way out of town and we weren’t able to get a Tuk Tuk or pick me due to the war in UAE and fuel panic so we had to walk down which was short of an hours walk but managed to get pick me back up

Best breakfast and best views in Kandy!!
Pros:

The place is just stunning! The views are amazing! The bedroom is huge with a very big bed, which is super comfortable. The bathroom id very spacious! Everything was super clean. Kandy is a very caotic city so for sure you will need a break. This was the best place for us. It was so much better than we thought! It's a little lost in the mountain but it's truly worth it.
We stayed two nights and our sleep was incredible! The ambience of the house is super nice and the host, she is really nice. She recommended us some places. We could park our tuktuk.
The breakfast was just amazing, the best we had in all Sri Lanka!
Delicious!! The best breakfast with the best views. We also bought something to take away and have dinner one night at the terrace. It was super beautiful!

Cons:

It's hard to find. There was no sign at all. It would be nice to have more indications on the road or at least something written on the door.

Ottimo alloggio, si può migliorare
Pros:

La stanza era bellissima, molto spaziosa, grande , con un bagno enorme e dotata di un arredo bellissimo. Vista top!
La colazione poi era ricca e buonissima.

Cons:

La stanza non era pulitissima, oltre all' armadio inutilizzabile, le plafoniere vicino al letto erano piene di ragnatele, il bagno poi pieno di muffa.
L'acqua calda alla sera non funzionava e scendeva a sgoccioli. Per prodotti del bagno c'erano solo 2 saponette. La posizione era proprio scomoda, nessun servizio e proprio fuori città.

Pros:

The location is simply amazing and you get the whole place to yourselves. The room is spacious, including the washroom. The terrace is an awesome place to relax.
Nature is very close, you can hear birds and other sounds. We also saw some monkeys in the morning.
Another big plus point is there are no mosquitos.
One thing to keep in mind though, it is a bit far & higher from the city. The way down gets dark as soon as the sun sets. So if you plan to go to the city for dinner, you should go before the sun sets. Pickme doesn’t work most of the time from here, so you need to ask the owner for help.

Cons:

Nothing.
