- Perfect host, very attentive but never too much - helped in every situation fair and square - Food was awesome (and plenty so prepare :D ) - Room was clean and comfortable - authentic homestay in the Jungle So we have stayed for 3 nights and it was by far the most welcoming and warm experience we have ever encountered throughout various countries. We were shown around, talked a lot to all the Family and instantly became Friends. The food was superb but since i caught a cold my appetite wasnt so big. Instead i was treated with medicine and steaming hot water to inhale (i didnt order it, the host just noticed my condition and arranged all that) We have been helped also with every inquiry regarding Tours, Safari, privat drivers, u name it and never felt taken advantage of. For us it will be the highlight of our Sri Lanka tour so dont hesitate if you think about staying Here. Do it, it will be a wonderful experience with perfect authentic people.

Lovely hosts, they helped organise transportation for us to and from Pidurangala rock for sunrise as well as a car from their home stay to our next location, Kandy. Our safari was also suggested and arranged for us by our hosts. The little things go a long way. We arrived in a downpour and our hosts very kindly met us both by the cars with umbrellas whilst they helped us with our bags. Breakfast was delicious, too and we were enjoyed having dinner with the hosts on the first evening we arrived. When staying at Yashi’s place, you must visit the Lady Cafe at the end of the road - this was a great recommendation by the host and the best food we had throughout our whole trip in Sri Lanka. The room was large and clean. The gardens surrounding Yashi’s place were beautiful - we especially enjoyed seeing the peacocks in the trees as we ate our meals!

Ideal location to hike Pidurangala and Sigiriya. The host Dominda even offered to drive us with his Tuk Tuk to the start of Pidurangala at 4:30am so we could get a head start on the crowds and enjoy sunrise. His family were the kindest and offered us a delicious Sri Lankan dinner and breakfast. Finally, the tree house has a view on Pidurangala and is surrounded by tropical forest making it an unforgettable stay. Highly recommended if you’re looking for a once in a lifetime experience.

    Great hospitality ,so reasonable and valuable experiences. I swam in near lake with host family.Locals wash their bodies and clothes there. so I also washed my body. Host took me the Rock to watch sunrise, it was so beautiful view ,on the way home fortunately I saw wild crocodile. After that I rode an elephant (5000LKR required). They served so delicious and local breakfast. He was the best host ever. If you stay here,your satisfaction with staying in Sigiriya will be greatly improved.

    I really loved staying at Pidurangala View Home Stay ♥️ the hosts are amazing, super kind and attentive and will help you to organize your schedule so you can make the most of tour time. Also, the location is incredible, it is a 10 min walk to the entrance to the Lion Rock and a 5min walk to the entrance of Pidurangala. Those walks are so scenic, you can spot monkeys, butterflies, peacocks, it is perfect. The food is so delicious, I totally recommend that you have dinner at this homestay, it is SO delicious 🙏🏻 Loved the hosts ♥️

    The location was fantastic to see both rocks, our lovely host even organised a 5am tuk tuk for us to view Pidarangula Rock for sunrise. The homestay is also walkable distance to a lovely restaurant called Nirwana. Breakfast was delicious and the view from the terrace of Lions Rock is unmatched. You are really in the middle of the jungle here!

    we really enjoyed the location of the homestay as it is located a bit outside of the main road/tourist area. Free drinking water is available and if you pre-order it, you can also eat lunch and dinner there. Jayanti's lovely dog Lora was very friendly towards us and Jayanti hereself is a great host (we didn't have the chance to book it but she also offers cooking classes)
