Nothing

This was a cultural experience! From the moment we arrived in this home in the jungle we felt like part of a family. We were constantly cared for, guided and taught by this kind local family. We were offered lifts to the local village and for longer journeys a friend was always organised for us at a cheap price. Breakfast was sweet and delicious with local Sri Lankan cuisine and we had dinner here two nights with two local dishes that were plentiful and unbelievably tasty, using home grown ingredients. We were also greeted with the most delicious papaya juice. Definitely the best food I've had in Sri Lanka. I couldn't recommend this place more. Whether you're looking for local immersion in a kind family homestay or just a clean, comfortable apartment surrounded by nature, this is the place for you. I would return here any day.

Thank you Damithe and Nirosha for your hospitality, you are such great host! This was the best homestay of our 12 days in Sri Lanka. The property is located in a quite place a 15 mins walk off the main road. It's peaceful and surrounded by nature. If you are not keen to walk to Sigiriya (which takes about an hour) Damithe very kindly offers to take you on his tuk tuk. Wifi works and if you have any issues connecting he will fix it for you in no time. He is extremely attentive and always makes sure you have everything you need. He can organise tours for you if you are interested. He took us to Pidurangala for sunrise where you have a view on Sigiriya. We recommend leaving before 5am as the trail can get crowded and you might not reach the top on time to watch the sun rise. Sunset might be more worth it but either way, the views from the top of both Pigurangala rock and Lion Rock are stunning regardless. He also organised a safari for us to Kaudulla National Park. We saw so many elephants, birds and jackals (worth every cent if you are into your birds and wildlife). The room exceeded our expectations! Very spacious, clean and newly built. And last but not least, Damithe's wife is an outstanding and dedicated cook. Make sure you get to dinner very hungry! Nirosha made the best and most generous curries we've had in Sri Lanka. Such a lovely family! Thank you for everything 🙏

Great place to stay near Sigiriya. The host and his family were very nice and caring, and the room was super clean and of a high standard. Wonderful nature around.

Spacious room including a huge bed and everything is very clean. Great and quiet location in the nature. Run by very kind and helpful people making sure you are not short of anything! One of the better rooms we had in Sri Lanka.

Wi-Fi could be better. But you can just use your SIM card and add data.

If this property is available to book 100% book it! I’m almost hesitant to post a review because I want to be able to stay at this hidden gem as long as possible. Next time I come! One of the cleaner rooms we had in Sri Lanka. A very large breakfast and the host was one of the most generous and gracious people I’ve ever met. Yes, there is a language barrier and you will have trouble Understanding, but he will ask you about 20 times a day if you want need anything. He even gave us his motorbike for for the whole week.

Nothing - we loved everything

We absolutely loved our stay here. Lovely clean and spacious room and outdoor space. Very authentic and yummy breakfast. The host family are absolutely lovely, made us feel very welcome and we enjoyed being shown the farm and all the animals. Dimith helped us get around at no cost in his tuktuk and made us the nicest fresh juice we had in the whole of Sri Lanka. This was the nicest place we stayed in Sri Lanka after three weeks and it was so affordable (in fact, we felt a much higher price would have been justified). we had to leave a day early from our stay due to my poor health, but the family made sure everything was OK and went out of their way to look after me.

A truly amazing family homestay with just 1 room that makes you feel part of the family. The room is super clean, with a large bed incl spring mattress and a excellent bathroom. You have you own veranda. The best we stayed in during our 3 wk trip in SL. The location is about a 7 km tuk tuk ride to Sigirya and Pidaramgula. And the family has its own tuk tuk, so they bring you at whatever time you like. Located in lovely rural area that is frequented by elephants and other wildlife. And lastly. - we are fantastic home cooked Sri Lankan meals morning and evening. A real and authentic homestay experience!!

Absolving incredible homestay for those looking to connect with nature and get away from the noise and chaos. I think I may have been lucky but during my two days of peace and quiet I saw: two elephants, peacocks, a monitor lizard, giant squirrels and tons of birds. The meals provided were excellent, one of the best dinners I've had so far in Sri Lanka. The room is comfortable and the air conditioning works flawlessly. The owner and his family were extremely attentive, and I really enjoyed the quiet and isolation this place provided! Thank you!!!

The Owner ( Damith) who was always there was charming and very attentive. The room was very comfortable, and the bathroom is large and spacious. We booked a safari with them, and it was great; we saw about 80 wild elephants in one day, which was amazing. They also arranged a tuk-tuk for us to go see the sunrise at Pidurangala. There were two newly born baby monkeys, incredibly cute.
