Pros:

Very nice couple that helps you if you need anything. Clean rooms and nice indoor area. Good breakfast and food. Quiet area.

Cons:

Very noisy fan in the rooms. Outside area not as inviting. No pressure in the showers when we stayed there. A bit of a walk downtown but they can help you get a tuk tuk.

Pros:

Colazione molto buona, proprietari di casa molto ospitali e disponibili.

Cons:

purtroppo la posizione non è molto comoda; per muoverti devi avere per forza un tuk tuk. La signora è molto disponibile e lo chiamerà lei per te, anche se poi, al ritorno si perderanno per riportarti a casa.. ma prima o poi ti ci riportano😂

Cordialità fuori dal centro
Pros:

Sara è estremamente cordiale e la sua famiglia davvero accogliente. C'è la possibilità di cenare in struttura e le porzioni sono abbondanti. Propongono tour a prezzi convenienti.

Cons:

La posizione distante dal centro, ma sono sempre disponibili ad accompagnarti.

Echt toll!
Pros:

Sara und seine Familie waren sehr gastfreundlich und herzlich. Er holte uns sogar kostenlos vom Bahnhof ab, was wirklich sehr nett war. Das Frühstück war himmlisch und es gab reichlich Kaffee! Die Lage fanden wir auch gut, weil wir so immer ein Stück spazieren konnten und ein TukTuk kostet ja sonst auch nicht viel. Danke :)

Cons:

Die Tagestour hat nicht ganz unseren Vorstellungen entsprochen.

Exceptional
Pros:

I had an amazing stay at Apple Sara Home Stay! From the moment I arrived, I felt like part of the family. The hospitality here is truly special—Dilshan and his father went above and beyond to make sure I was comfortable and had everything I needed.

The rooms were clean, cozy, and perfect for a relaxing stay. What made my experience even better was their affordable tour package, which allowed me to explore the area without any hassle. Everything was well-organized, and their local knowledge made the trips even more enjoyable.

If you're looking for a warm, welcoming place to stay in Sri Lanka, Apple Sara Home Stay is the perfect choice. Highly recommended!!!

Cons:

There is nothing that I didn't like.

Very good
Pros:

Very clean place and a lovely host. We had a little trouble finding the place because it's located on a very steep road. I asked a random kid if he knows this place and he showed us. :)

Recommend, out of the rush city
Pros:

Apple Sara Homestay in Ampitya is a great choice for travelers looking for a peaceful stay near Kandy. Located just 3 km from Kandy Lake, it offers a quiet and relaxing atmosphere away from the busy city, making it perfect for unwinding after a day of sightseeing.

A special highlight of the stay is the hospitality of the hosts, Sara and Maria. They are incredibly welcoming and genuinely care about their guests’ comfort. Whether it’s providing local tips, arranging transport, or simply ensuring a pleasant stay, their kindness and attentiveness make a big difference.

Cons:

The only small downside is the pricing for food and beverages, which may feel a bit high for budget travelers or backpackers trying to save money. However, the overall experience, warm hospitality, and serene location more than make up for it.

Passable
Pros:

The room is big enough and bedrom pretty large.
Matress is fine and fan working but noisy

Cons:

Not any sign to tell you that you are at the good place. Extremely difficult to access the property, you have very important steep through narrow road going there and down steep to access the property. The building has any charm. You see nothing from outside just the wall of owner building. The hall distribute to 4 room so when people talking in the hall you hear any tiny voice so you need to wait that anybodies went to sleep before falling asleep. No net in the bedroom so mosquito can be a trouble. In the shower when you open up tap to have you shower you don't have enough water to use, olny few and to rise up pressure you need to turn on th cold water. Not toilet paper and the room has not windows like a cave.
