The room was great and the safari they organize is just perfect! Of course, you have to be lucky to see a leopard, but the experience is really great!

Dilushika and Gayan were exceptional hosts, making us feel right at home. The breakfast was delightful, and we also enjoyed dinner there—Dilushika's egg kottu is the best! The garden is stunning! I could have easily stayed longer. The beds were comfortable, complete with mosquito nets for a peaceful night's sleep. I loved sleeping by the soothing sounds of birds. The view is absolutely breathtaking! They also organize safari at the best price with excellent guides. Additionally, they arranged a taxi to Ella for us at a rate even better than Uber.

The service. It was fantastic and better than some 5 star hotels. Sanjeewa and his aunt went out of the way to take care of me and my family and prepared some delicious authentic Srilankan food as lunch and breakfast. The property itself is so well kept and faces the rice paddy field. We also booked the safari through them and got to see so many animals. Because we traveled with out 80 yr old grandma, they were extra careful which really helped. If we visit again, we will surely only stay at this Guest house.

We had a wonderful stay at this very unique and beautiful accommodation. The room was cozy with a comfortable bed and good AC. The owners garden is large, filled with plants and beautiful flowers, the scenery is very picturesque. We loved the large and tasty Sri Lankan breakfast we received. Our host gave us many great tips on what to see in the area and also organised private safari tours for us to Yala and to Bundala. It might have cost a bit more but it was worth it, our guide Isuru was amazing! We totally recommend this place, it’s really worth a stay!
