This place was very nice! We initially only booked 2 nights but ended up staying 5 nights instead. The room was big and spacious, comfortable bed, big bathroom with very good shower. Also hot water in the sink, not only the shower, something to not take for granted in this country. Staff was very nice and helpful. They provide scooter rentals as well (need to bring your international driving license). You can also pay for your stay with card! This was the only homestay out of 6 that we visited that accepted card payments. Would definitely recommend this place!

Stay here ! Wonderful people and location

The kindest family we have met on our travels, nothing was ever an issue and they treated us as one of their own. We even had Christmas dinner with them ! The beds are super comfortable. Shower is always hot and powerful. Air con was brand new and exceptional. Excellent location and only a 10 minute walk to the beach.

We had such a beautiful stay here. The family who runs this place are some of the kindest people we’ve ever met. They truly treated us like part of their own family. I injured my ankle during our trip, and they went above and beyond to look after me — checking in constantly to make sure I was okay, helping me up the stairs every night, and even bringing me crutches from their temple so we didn’t have to buy any. They offered us dinner, helped with anything we needed, and made us feel completely cared for. Their kindness made such a difference during a stressful time, and we’re so grateful. If you’re looking for a stay with genuine warmth, hospitality and heart, this is the place. Highly, highly recommend.

The place is nice but it’s a little far from the center of Hiriketiya beach because is in the main road. The place is clean and the owners are really friendly and helpful. But in my opinion the price is a bit higher than it deserves.
