    Great location, the rooms are clean and comfortable. The swimming pool is great when coming back from a safari. The safari which was actually organised by elephant arcade was excellent, comfortable cars and very good packed breakfast and lunch. The restaurant is really good as well. Amazing staff! I totally recommend this place!

    Not close to the city center, but if you're looking for peace, nature, and a lake, this is definitely the place.

    Wonderful guesthouse with a relaxing atmosphere, a beautiful pool, delicious meals, and stunning lake views. Dennis is amazing – dedicated, energetic, and always kind and helpful. Highly recommended!

    Advantage and disadvantage is large distance from amenities such as shops etc. Have your snacks prepared and it would be perfect!

    Quiet, clean place, with beautiful view on the lake. Tucans are resting on nearby trees. Lovely, friendly hosts, who will arrange you a tasty breakfast for safari, as well as everything you would require :)

The host catered for our doetary requirements and we can say without a doubt it was one of the best meals we have eaten in all of Sri Lanka. We also loved the complimentary tea. Istuti

    wonderful stay, we were welcomed like family. very comfortable room with fan and air conditioning, large, in very good condition and large and very clean bathroom. Quiet place immersed in nature, pleasant swimming pool. perfect if you have a vehicle. otherwise the manager can take you to the bus stop by tuktuk, practical. The meals were excellent and plentiful especially the curry and Sriyani make also special dishes for my children.

    There was no hot water provision and there were no blankets provided by the hotel, actually, there were no blankets in the hotel, on requesting the staff they gave us bed sheets.

    Very good location, the staff was also very good and polite, the room was neat and clean, the view was 360 degrees, the food was nice, and the staff prepared good Vegetarian food for us. enjoyed the stay very much.
