“Wish we'd stayed longer.”
Absolutely beautiful property. Landed here as a result of cutting another unsatisfactory hotel stay short. Wish we'd booked here for several days. Gorgeous setting, fantastic cottage lodging on a rice paddy field. Kind, attentive family and excellent foods for breakfast and dinner. An excellent, convenient location to plan outings from as well.

“This place has a good review for a reason, such a gem!”
Such a lovely place with really friendly owner who made sure our stay was comfortable and he also arranged us a great and funny guide called Sagara for Sinharaja Forest. We got to stay in the newly built hut and the room was clean and very comfortable. Best part was the private terrace with an amazing view to the rice field and the forest. Also the food we had here was great. The surrounding of this place is beautiful and quiet, also with lots of birds to see. All in all a great stay, bohoma stuthi! I will definitely come back!

We had the most incredible experience at this beautiful place . First of all, the location was absolutely stunning. Situated amidst the lush greenery of the jungle,Rice Fields and a lake. This place offered breathtaking views and serene surroundings. The bungalows were beautifully designed and blended perfectly with the natural environment. But what truly made our stay exceptional was the friendly family, especially our host thissara. He went above and beyond to ensure that we were well taken care of and had everything we needed. His attentiveness and warm hospitality made us feel truly pampered. also boasted an exceptional restaurant with a fewof delicious food and drinks. We were impressed with the quality and taste of the dishes, and the drinks were equally delightful. The whole dining experience was a treat for our taste buds.

Simple accommodation on a beautiful island in the middle of rice fields. We enjoyed the wonderful view of the forest and animals even in the pouring rain. The host took care of everything with very good English. The food was one of the best we had in Sri Lanka. We recommend!!!!
