I had an amazing stay here and met some great people! Come here if you like staying in nature, chill yet sociable vibes and you want to recharge for a few days. The place has only been opened for a month so all the facilities are fairly new. Everything was clean and the beds come with mosquito nets which is a huge plus. The guys who run the place are amazing and will help you with anything you need. They even took us on little adventures like searching for elephants at night! Would definitely come stay here again. Thank you Diwa & Chooti and I wish you the best with everything. Hakuna Matata!

I highly recommend this hostel! The hosts were so nice, very helpful, full of good recommandations. I would come back here anytime and for a few more days because it was so nice. Felt like home with this lovely family! The food was also very good and we were able to see how to make a curry with the host which was really fun :)

The spacious accommodations were a breath of fresh air, and the complimentary breakfast and dinner buffet were a delightful bonus. Honestly, the value for money here is unbeatable! On our first day, we ventured out to Pidurangala to catch the sunset, and it was absolutely breathtaking. The next day, we explored the stunning Sigiriya rock fortress, which was a highlight of our trip. In the evening, we enjoyed a charming bullock cart village safari that gave us a taste of local life. The third day was just as memorable, with a well-organized safari to Minneriya National Park to watch the elephants. It was such a relaxing day, surrounded by nature and wildlife. The only downside was the Wi-Fi, which was a bit slow at times, but honestly, it was nice to disconnect and enjoy the experience fully. Overall, I had an amazing stay and will definitely be coming back! If you're looking for a great place to stay with wonderful activities, this hostel is the perfect choice

This hostel is without a doubt a perfect place to stay. It has such calm and positive vibes, making it ideal for relaxing. The owner is very kind, welcoming, and always ready with helpful information. Cleanliness is maintained at the highest standard, which adds to the comfort. The breakfast is far above the usual hostel standard—more like what you’d expect in a 3–4 star hotel. Overall, it’s a wonderful experience filled with good energy, and I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a pleasant and memorable stay.

We had a wonderful stay at this hostel! The place is impeccably clean and well-maintained, making it feel like a home away from home. The host is incredibly friendly and helpful, always going out of his way to ensure a pleasant stay and offering great tips for local attractions. The traditional breakfast served each morning was absolutely delicious – a perfect start to the day! The hostel is located in a peaceful area, offering a calm and relaxing atmosphere, yet still close enough to everything you need. We highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a comfortable, welcoming, and quiet place to stay. We would definitely come back!

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    The common area is very well put together, gives homie-vibes and it's very prone to meet other travelers in the hostel. The staff of the hostel, also, promote a good integration for everybody, organizing certain activities in group that everyone can participate in, like going to the lake, watching sunset in a secret place or doing BBQ Best hostel for backpackers and solo travelers no doubt Ah, and the food is amazing. Excellent really
