Everything great!

Stayed in August 2025

The house is outside of the city, up the hill a bit. The area is very quiet and cool, so that was great. But, it is a pretty far walk. You will need to use tuk tuks.

This family lives in a large house, and they are renting out some of their rooms, so it really is a kind of homestay. They also have some rooms that are not attached to the house, if you prefer more independence. I like how they have opened up their house to guests, so you can experience how a local family lives. Anander speaks English well, so we were really able to converse with him about all kinds of things. They are a very kind, gracious couple. They arranged a guide/tuk-tuk driver for us.

The food they offer is delicious but a bit pricey

The house is very comfortable, and the host went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable.

Everything was perfect.

This homestay is located in a hilltop. The room is spacious clean and overlooking luscious green trees. The hosts were very friendly, would go over and above to make the guests feel homely and comfortable.

A bit far from the city center, but could be easily arrange a ride

The host was very accommodating. He helped us was whatever request we had (laundry, dinner, tour or Tuk Tuk arrangement). The service was outstanding, going above and beyond our expectations. The room was very clean, with lots of space and light, very comfortable, with a nice view and in a green and quiet area. The bed was very comfortable. We were feeling so great that we extended our stay. The location was a bit tricky, but could be easily arranged with a Tuk Tuk for between 400 or 800 rupees (depending if you get a Pickup ride or not) We were very grateful for the special arrangements for our daughter’s birthday and would recommend the place to anyone with children

Loved being so close to Kandy, but in the hills up and away from it. Really enjoyed eating with other guests. Such a kind and helpful host.

We came late at night and the road had no street lights so it was hard to find the place.

The host was amazing. He offered to help us for transport to railway station in early morning. Everything was so clean and spacious. Very much recommended!

Everything ok!

Mr. Ananda is very friendly, he always waits upon arrival and asks how we spent the day and if we need anything. He gave us a free ride into town upon departure as it was too early (5 AM) for the tuk-tuk drivers - thank you again! The location is nice and quiet, but it's quite uphill - you need a tuk-tuk to get around, but you can also take a more active walk (about 35 minutes walking down, a little more uphill). For an additional fee, the staff also prepares a delicious local breakfast.

The most tranquil location away from the business of Kandy. Our room had incredible views and beautiful soundscape from the balcony. Ananda was an amazing host, so incredibly kind and attentive, we felt so welcome and the breakfast was just amazing! The egg hoppers and pancakes were the best! We really enjoyed our stay!

Not a minus, but if you want to be in the hustle and bustle of Kandy, this is not really the place for you. The beauty of it is really being away from all of the noise and having a really 'home' feeling.

We had an absolutely fantastic stay with Mr. Ananda. He was incredibly accommodating, kind and generous. The dinners at the homestay were delicious and also gave us the opportunity to meet other travellers. The place is tucked away from the noise of Kandy, very peaceful and a short walk from the Pekoe trailhead. We were concerned about getting there by tuktuk, but we were easily able to arrange rides with uber or pickme. Mr. Anander very kindly gave us a lift to the train station when we departed.

It was such an amazing house and experience. Anand and his wife were so welcoming and treated us like their family. We had the run of the house and could use the kitchen when we wanted tea etc. Gorgeous spacious rooms with balconies and views over the trees. It was way up in the forests with such clean fresh air. Ravi the tuk tuk driver was great for hiring for trips. He was very knowledgeable and well known and liked in town. Food was delicious and home cooked. They couldn't do wnough for us. Felt sad to leave. Anand even drove us to the station at 4am just because he wanted to! Highly recommend for a lovely Sri lankan home experience. Thank you so much!

Ananda and his wife are fantastic hosts, they were always available to help in any occasion. For example, My girlfriend was sick for a few days and Ananda was so kind that he scheduled an appointment with a doctor to get some advice and medicines. The location is also beautiful, in front of a huge forest in which a wild.leopard resides. Fantastic experience, definitely recommended.

The sanitary facilities are a bit older, but that didn't bother us at all as they were still on a solid level.

Quiet, spacious room with an amazing view of the jungle just outside of busy and dusty kandy. Andana, his wife are such warm and welcoming people. They prepared amazing food for us and even taught us how to cook it :) Ravi, the Tuc Tuc driver who picked us up and drove us to great spots and temples was a great company! They all gave us good recommendations and helped us getting tickets for the train. We would definitely recommend everybody to stay here for an outstanding experience :)

The washroom is not modern (outdated fittings but functional, though).

The friendly hospitality of the entire staff, including the aides. Excellent breakfasts we enjoyed. Quiet setting with a fantastic view. The host was very kind enough to offer us a free ride to the bus station on the day of our departure.
