A peaceful stay with beautiful surroundings, comfortable rooms, and exceptionally warm hospitality.
Pros:

A peaceful and lovely place to stay in Kandy. The rooms were clean and comfortable, and the whole property was very peaceful, surrounded by beautiful trees and greenery. The owner uncle was especially kind and welcoming. He was always polite, smiling, and very helpful whenever we needed anything. His warm hospitality made the stay even more enjoyable.
Highly recommended if you’re looking for a quiet and relaxing place away from the busy city.

Pros:

Piacevole soggiorno. Struttura situata fuori dal caso di Kandy. Proprietari gentilissimi e attenti a non far mai mancare nulla. Abbiamo fatto cena da loro ed era tutto buonissimo ad un prezzo onestissimo!

Heel knap verblijf in de groene heuvels rond Kandy.
Pros:

Heel fijne locatie in de heuvels buiten Kandy. Ideaal voor een bezoek aan Kandy en vlakbij de start van etappe 1 van de pekoe trail. Vriendelijke en behulpzame host, lekker eten, mooie kamer, mooie ruime woning…

Pros:

My wife and I returned to the same accommodation after 12 years, now with our friends and family. We loved staying in the heart of the jungle while still being just a short drive from the city of Kandy. The hospitality of the staff is truly exceptional. Thank you, Ananda!

Cons:

Nothing

Pros:

Unfortunately, our stay at this property was not pleasant. Despite its high rating, it felt like the place had not been properly maintained or renovated for many years.

The room was dirty, with mold on the walls and in the bathroom, ants in the room, mold on the curtains, and a dirty refrigerator. The bathroom also needed a thorough cleaning.

The owner seemed to be a kind and friendly person, but the condition of the room was disappointing. Because of this, I cannot recommend this property. It would greatly benefit from a deep cleaning and proper maintenance.

Pros:

Perfect spot for us to stay ahead of starting the Pekoe Trail. Moses was an excellent host - we were able to store our luggage while we were hiking, and we also made use of the laundry services offered. The meals were delightful also!

Cons:

Location is a little tricky to get to from Kandy with Google maps- definitely check with Moses about arranging transport. Our tuktuk driver from Kandy got very lost!

Prima verblijf gehad maar er zijn zeker beteren. Ontbijt t.o.v. andere locaties erg karig maar dit kan ook te maken hebb
Pros:

Prima locatie in een geweldig oud huis met heel kamers en doorgangen. Je ziet de apen achter elkaar aan vangen door de bomen.

Cons:

Het ligt heel hoog boven Kandy. Het grenst aan de jungle. Je ziet daar ook de waarschuwing om hier 's-avonds niet meer te lopen. Als je van rust houdt moet je hier zeker zijn.

A good choice for travelers seeking a comfortable and authentic stay
Pros:

The property has a charming, old-villa character that makes you feel right at home. The local staff were warm and helpful, and the owners were exceptionally kind and accommodating. We especially appreciated their flexibility with our partial cancellation and their generosity in providing a full refund.

Cons:

The only drawback for us was the location. The villa is situated on a fairly steep uphill road and is a little away from Kandy city centre, which may not be ideal for everyone.

A great place to relax and get ready for your hike on the Pekoe Trail.
Pros:

Short distance to Ceylon Tea Museum and the Pekoe Trail (3 km). Quit area, surrounded by nature. Friendly owners. They gave a bigger room for the same amount. Very good spicy dinner. Exactly as I ordered it.

Cons:

Everything was good. Just note, it's an uphill road with some distance from the main road. Better to come with a tuktuk/taxi.

Kurzer Aufenthalt in Kandy.
Pros:

Leider waren wir nur für eine Nacht zu Besuch. Sehr sympathischer Gastgeber. Schönes Familienzimmer in einem schönen Haus. Zu Fuss eher schwierig und etwas weit.
