I highly recommend it! ✨ We stayed at this guesthouse for 10 nights and felt right at home. The staff were super friendly, very attentive to detail, and always willing to help. The next time I visit Sri Lanka, I'll be there again! ✈️🇱🇰

Fantastic boutique guest house

The manager/owner and staff were lovely. They did everything they could to help us and make our stay comfortable. We had food poisoning and they went out to get us local medicine and it worked! Unique decor, lovely swimming pool for dip after day at beach and fantastic location - on a quiet street but 10 mins from Kabalana Beach (which is the best beach). Short tuk tuk to Ahagamana (we always used the manager's father-in-law!)

Fantastic value for money! Thejini House is in a great location—quiet enough for a good night's sleep but close enough to get to all the local spots easily. The breakfast was delicious and the Wi-Fi was reliable. I’ll definitely be staying here again on my next trip.

Great stay near Kabalana beach

We really loved the location and street the hotel is on. Close to yoga, cafes and Kabalana beach. Definitely glad we stayed in Kabalana and not the main Ahangama town area. The rooms were generous and comfortable. Breakfasts were some of the best we had - loved the yogurt and fresh fruit and iced coffees every morning. Owners were friendly and easy to deal with

Favourite hotel in Sri Lanka, beautiful local family business

This was like home away from home! We are so grateful for not only the beautiful room and common areas like pool, restaurant and rooftop, but especially also for the hospitality - the Sri Lankan family that runs this place took care of us beyond expectations. The mother cooked healthy soup when I fell sick, we were allowed to shower before our late flight and we received quick help with every question that came up during our week's stay (trip recommendations, scooter rent, laundry service, surf school,...). Book this now if you get the chance. You will not regret it :)

Been there for the second time and will definitely come back again! I really appreciate warm welcome, huge breakfast, everything is clean, cozy and you really feel like home. Location is great, because it is close to the beach but in quiet area at the same time, and you can easily hop on a bike and go to the center. The owner is super helpful (and the whole family is just sweet), they rented me a bike and even arranged the drive back to my hotel. Thank you and see you next time!

The rooms were clean, and gave a tropical vibe. The host was very friendly and made sure we were comfortable. The host became our goto person for our stay, because they suggested sites, beaches, locations and even arranged a bike for us for transportation. I will choose to stay in Jini's house during my next visit.
