“It felt like home. Would stay again!”
We really enjoyed our stay here. The location is perfect, the place is simple but very nice and well kept, and the price is very reasonable. The host was incredibly friendly and welcoming.

It’s a family owned guesthouse which has very lovely owners. It’s beautifully located next to the river where you can enjoy the view and peacefulness. It’s exactly what I was looking for.

For those seeking a quaint and quiet escape, Little Swan Guesthouse is a hidden gem in Bentota that perfectly balances simplicity with genuine hospitality. The amenities are simple yet effective, providing everything needed for a comfortable stay, including the thoughtful touch of free water, coffee, and tea available throughout the day.

This is a wonderful family home with a beautiful riverside garden. It's run by a very friendly family. It's a must-stay in Bentota. I always return to this place when I visit Sri Lanka. I hope you don't miss the opportunity to truly experience Bentota, even better than the typical resorts or hotels.

Exceptionally friendly and kind host owners. There's water, tea and coffee to help yourself, and cooking facilities to make simple meals. There's also a peaceful chill out spot by the river on their property where you can relax. Be careful of the stairs as I missed the block step and fell and hurt myself. Apparently I am not the only guest who has fallen down. The owner was very kind in using Ayurvedic treatment that worked wonderfully within hours to heal my swollen ankle. I'll definitely stay there again but this time be mindful of the steps ;)

They have a long experience of welcoming people. It's a nice place to stay, I enjoyed my time there. They got everything you need. It's comfortable. I will come back. The place is close to the main road but far enough to be at peace.
