“Very nice and welcoming hosts, comfy beds, beautiful garden, nice breakfast”
Very good location to visit the caves, the host couple is super nice! There are not a lot of reviews yet because they opened last year and we were their second guests ever, but they are super nice, available and welcoming, you can go there without any worry!

The 4 bed dorm did feel like a twin room because there are two rooms with each two (big) single beds. There was a big private bathroom.

Really great stay with Hash and Vi. They are really friendly and organise the safari, they take you straight from the home stay to the national and are the guides for the tour. We also went out for a sunset in a local spot! Amazing experience 😁

Saff was very kind and helpful. The owner was amazing, he spent time giving me a lot of informations and even arranged me a temple tour with a guide in ten minutes. Great value for the price. I absolutely reccomend this this place. They even organize safaris in Wilpattu Nacional Park for a good price.

Fantastic hostel experience! Such a lovely host family. I felt very well taken care of. The overall vibe was really good. No bunk beds, but a double bed all for yourself! And AC in the rooms. Great location as well. Also possible to do Wilpattu safari from the hostel, which was so much fun, and for the best price you can get. If you have the chance to stay at this lovely hostel, please do! :)

“I really felt home”
The staff was really nice and it wasn’t too big. We sat all together in the evenings. Hosts sat with us and made it fun for everyone. They are very active in organising the safari and also some tours if you like. They do recommend nice local places for food. I really felt home!

“Not clean at all”
Good location close to all the restaurants and shops. They also organised safaris and other guided tours. I did the safari which was a bit expensive, but worth it! The staff is nice and can give you good recommendations for the area.

I was 1 month in Sri Lanka and honestly, staying here was the highlight of my trip. It's super centric and good for backpackers. You have drinking wáter and tea for free and the family that runs it's super nice and helpful. MOST IMPORTANT, they also run some amazing tours!!! I booked for willpattu and had the chance to see lots of animals, deers, buffalos, an Elephant and even two leopardos. The driver and the guide did their best to gave a magical experience. 10/10

The owners are very kind and helpful people, their home has a calm vibe. They explained the best options to visit the temples. They provide breakfast, there is a mosquito net for each bed, and a big terrace to hang out, I could even do yoga there. :-)

“Great Family-run Hostel”
Thanks to the family that run the place it feels much more like a homestay with dorms than a hostel, and has lots of communal space. The breakfast is a simple omelette, bread and bananas but is very good value. Great location, big beds with mosquito nets and clean enough.

“Very nice stay”
The host is really nice and gives good recommendations. He also dropped us off at the bus station when it was time to go and made sure we got the right bus. The room was comfortable with just two beds and a mosquito net for each.

A nice place with friendly hosts. They help with information about places of interest. You get what you pay for, but it was clean and comfortable enough.

very nice and lovely family. For me it was more of a homestay than a hostel. The owner helped me organize and book my excursions. Tour to the temple and other attractions with no entry fee. Sunset hike. full day safari. 😃 delicious breakfast - cheap and tasty for the price. I had there a really great time there. Thank you very much.
