Wonderful hosts, great accommodation and delicious breakfast. The pool was a very welcome relief after a hot day too. The quality of the decor was the best we saw in Sri Lanka with lovely art everywhere you look. Very highly recommended!

Without any doubt it was the best stay of our trip. The house owner is an extremely humble man. He has a cute little family living at the villa too which gives such a homely and safe feeling. His little girl Chloe was our favorite part of the stay we miss her so much. The property owner cooperated with us to an extreme extent. He even gave us complimentary pancakes for our anniversary. He was so fast in replying to our messages. He guided us on every step. Because of him, our Kandy stay became perfect!

We liked everything about the place. Location is very close to the centre if you take tuk tuk. Room is absolutely beautiful, the view is stunning, at the end we wanted to stay a couple of days more. Brekfast is delicious, we couldnt breathe because we wanted to try everything. Service on the top. The manager and the staff is very kind, helpful, only the best to say. We recommend everyone to stay at this beautiful place.

The property was lovely, the view from our balconey was great, very quiet, a lot of space outside. It was convenient to get to the city center, we were there during festival season and were not bothered due to noises. The room has everything you need, mosquito net, fan etc. we were often even cold. Our hosts were absolutely incredible, very understanding when we overslept for breakfast, we had dinner with them twice because the food was so so amazing. She is an incredible cook and I couldn't recommend having food at the homestay more, truly the best food we had in Sri Lanka so far, the portions for breakfast and dinner were also quite big. Everyone was truly so kind and funny and caring and I cannot recommend this homestay enough we will come again given the chance and I wish the host family the absolute best because they deserve everything in the world. Truly thank you so much ❤️

It's a very very charming boutique hotel. It has an Italian design. The manager speaks good English and knows what hospitality is. He organised everything for us, was genuine interested and made us feel very welcome. The breakfast is also good. And it's easy in this hotel to also meet other travellers (with families). The views from the hotel are stunning, it's a little bit out of the city center but therefore also nice and quiet.

The lake view and quiet location are delightful in the morning. The guest house thrives primarily due to its two fantastic hosts, who took excellent care of me. Enjoying a beer and discussing politics with them was a warm and welcoming experience. The recommended dance show is truly worth attending, even though the audience is predominantly white.

Our two hosts were remarkably friendly, attentive and helpful. While the accommodation is located on the outskirts of Kandy (and is thus very quiet - a big plus in our opinion), the city centre and all the major sights are easily reachable by tuktuk. Our corner room with a balcony had a beautiful view over the river and the surrounding countryside. The breakfast - especially the fresh fruit - was delicious, varied and more than we could eat.
