Categories

Cleanliness
10
Multiple guests reported mold/strong humidity odors in rooms and at least one mention of blackened walls; one reviewer explicitly described the room as 'schimmelig' (moldy). Cleanliness is therefore notably impacted.
Service
10
Host Manuel is repeatedly praised as extremely friendly, helpful and attentive (organising excursions, giving tips, responsive, laundry service offered). Many reviews single out exceptional, personalised service.
Location
10
Most guests value the peaceful, tropical, nature setting and proximity to cultural experiences; a minority noted the property feels a bit remote or close to a main road. Overall location is seen very positively.
Room Quality
10
Rooms have pleasant terraces, comfortable beds and hot water, but there are recurring reports of dampness/mold and one comment about a worn toilet seat; room comfort is good but affected by humidity issues.
Amenities
10
Strong positive mentions of pool, jacuzzi, lush garden, variety of offered activities (safaris, cookery class, tuk-tuk rides) and overall pleasant facilities that enhance the stay.
Value for Money
10
Most guests felt the stay was worthwhile and would recommend/return, but at least one review criticised the price relative to perceived quality (especially citing cleanliness/service issues).
Food and Beverage
10
Repeated praise for delicious, diverse breakfasts and meals (mix of Spanish and Sri Lankan dishes); several guests explicitly complimented the food as a highlight.
Overall Experience
10
Majority describe a relaxing, highly recommended stay with excellent host and setting; however, some serious negatives (mold, one report of racist behaviour and poor handling of belongings) temper the overall impression.

We loved this place!
Pros:

We loved this place! The pool and garden area is so tranquil and relaxing, we loved spotting the exotic wildlife. The host Manuel cooked us some fantastic Sri Lankan and European food, organised all our transport and day trips and even waited at the bus stop with us for 20 minutes to make sure we got on the right bus to Dambulla Caves, top service! We highly recommend this place to others visiting the area.

Cons:

Nothing

Splendid and peaceful place with exquisite food and friendly host. O
Pros:

Manuel makes it happen. As a chef he can make food at your wishes. We had 2 delicious paellas. So for culinairy food tou have to be there. Next to that good advices for visits. Cabanas are nice with a veranda at the back with comfy chairs. And ofd course the cute cat Karma and kind watch dog Kirry. And last but not least the kind Kumari. So you see beings make the the nice location better.

Cons:

Pool and trees are meqnt for cooling down. Later at the day you need to move for getting your tan line😁

Pros:

Un petit paradis. Le calme, la beauté du lieu, les bruits de la jungle, l accueil... la piscine, le jacuzzi, les conseils de Manuel qui s occupe de vous organiser les excursions , toujours présent pour vous.
On va chercher les œufs frais chez le voisin, les citrons chez un autre. Et tous, sont heureux de vous voir. Des fruits et légumes frais pour une cuisine goûteuse.
Pour un séjour au plus près de la culture sri lankaise avec Manuel l Espagnol qui vous guide dans cette expérience.
Je recommande à 100% .

Great host and food
Pros:

We traveled to Sri Lanka for 2 weeks as a couple from Germany in February 2026. We stayed in 7 different hotels. I'll only remark on the positive and negative things. Otherwise expect a hotel matching the category and price:
Positive:
Best Host, great food (breakfast pancakes, curry, Spanish eggs
Negative:
Mold in the room

Pros:

Die Anlage war sehr hübsch, die eigene kleine Terrasse lud zum Entspannen ein und der Pool/Jacuzzi waren perfekt zum Abkühlen und Relaxen.
Das Essen war köstlich, die Karte war eine Mischung aus spanischen und sri lankischen Gerichten.
Es gab viele Aktivitäten, welche angeboten wurden (traditionelle Tanz-Show, Safari, Kochkurs, TukTuk Fahrten, etc.). Es wurde darauf geachtet, viel aus unseren Aufenthalt rauszuholen.

Cons:

Das Zimmer war etwas schimmelig, was an der tropischen Luft liegen könnte und nahezu oft in Sri Lanka auftaucht.

Pros:

Rien

Cons:

Je ne comprends pas la note mise sur booking pour cet établissement. Notre chambre dégageait une forte odeur d’humidité. Les murs sont noirs (champignons). Si vous oubliez des effets personnels, l’hôte ne vous les rend pas !!!
« Son chien aboie contre les personnes de couleur » dit l’hôte. Raciste et nonchalant. Je ne recommande absolument pas cet établissement. C’est très cher pour la « qualité » médiocre et le service.

Perfect
Pros:

De eigenaar was een super vriendelijke en behulpzame man. Hij nam ruim de tijd om alles uit te leggen over Sigiriya en gaf goede restaurant tips. Het eten op de accommodatie was ook heerlijk! De was word voor je gedaan als je dat wilt. We hebben hier een geweldige ervaring gehad en zouden het iedereen aanraden!

Niks
