Relax i confort
Pros:

Un lloc tranquil per descansar després d'un dia sense parar. Piscina molt agradable per refrescar-te. El personal súper atent i servicial. Ens van cuinar una de les nits arròs amb curry de diversos tipus i estava molt bo. L'esmorzar molt variat i molt bo. Massa menjar i tot. També tenien cerveses. Habitació espaiosa i amb aire acondicionat

Cons:

He trobat a faltar una paperera a l'habitació o al lavabo

Lovely stay at peaceful property
Pros:

The host was friendly and helpful, the garden and pool area were lovely and peaceful.
The room was basic but comfortable and the aircon worked well (it did trip a couple of times, but the host restored it straight away when we let him know). No fridge in the room, but the host was happy for us to store things in the fridge in the dining area. Breakfast was tasty with huge portions.
About a 10min walk away from the start of the main street.
The host put me in contact with a guy who organised a village tour and cooking class for 25euro, which I would highly recommend.

Base económica para explorar el triángulo cultural
Pros:

Un lugar muy tranquilo, alejado del tráfico donde se oye la naturaleza, la ubicación está un poco escondida, pero si uno va de día no debería haber problema. Los empleados fueron extremadamente amables y nos ayudaron con sus consejos y recomendaciones para que nuestra experienca en Habarana y los alrededores fuera mucho mejor. El dueño tuvo la amabilidad de invitarnos a comer el día que no pudimos desayunar sin cargo adicional. El restaurante que regenta junto a esta acomodación Curry & Rice ofrece un buffet libre con una cocina de gran calidad y que recomiendo encarecidamente.

Cons:

La ubicación por la noche puede ser un problema, sobre todo para los que tengan miedo a la oscuridad en un entorno rodeado de vegetación/selva unido a los perros que pueden ser algo agresivos en algún momento. Nuestra habitación podría mejorar y la cama ser algo más cómoda, pero no se puede pedir más por el precio que uno paga.

Wohlfühlen in Habanara, jederzeit wieder!
Pros:

Wir haben uns dort 3 Tage lang sehr wohlgefühlt. Das Personal ist sehr freundlich und vor allem Mahesh, der Hotelchef, hat alles getan, dass wir uns wohlfühlten. Er hat uns toll beraten wegen der Ausflüge und alles organisiert und hat uns auch etliche Male gefahren.
Im Pool kann man sich wunderbar erfrischen.
Die Unterkunft liegt sehr ruhig, man kann sich wirklich gut entspannen und ist trotzdem in ein paar Minuten im Zentrum.
Vor allem das Frühstück ist super und sehr abwechslungsreich und vielfältig.
Die Dusche hat ordentlich Druck und das Wasser kommt warm!
Thank you, Mahesh, for all😀

Cons:

Es fehlten Auflagen für die Liegen am Pool

Secluded tropical stay with pool and great breakfast
Pros:

Great quiet location, close to centre with short walk to shops and restaurants but quiet and secluded with tropical feel. Nice room and bathroom with lovely garden and communal area. Very good pool which we used every day. Huge breakfast with enough to keep over for dinner. Very helpful and friendly staff and someone on site all the time.

Cons:

Nothing to not like, it was perfect.

Pros:

Een enorm uitgebreid ontbijt en super vriendelijk en behulpzaam personeel.

Cons:

Een klein beetje buiten het centrum maar zeker niet onoverkomelijk. Enkel had de kamer wat opbergruimte mogen hebben.

Buen sitio para pasar la noche y hacer el Safari a Minneriya
Pros:

El personal muy amable. Hay una piscina (no había toallas en principio pero pregunté y nos la dieron).
Desayuno muy abundante y bueno.
Habitación correcta. Ojo, enchufes antiguos (hace falta adaptador). Aire acondicionado ok.

Cons:

No es culpa de ellos pero se escuchó un perro ladrar toda la noche.
Está detrás la calle principal, por la noche está a oscuras, prever linterna (eso ya nos ha pasado, es algo habitual aquí).
