Exceptional hospitality and very clean place – highly recommended!

Hospitality: The family is incredibly sweet and welcoming. They greeted us with a lovely welcome drink and even helped us with our luggage both at check-in and check-out. Location: Perfect location! It is only a 3-minute walk to the town center, yet it is very quiet as it’s tucked away in a small side street. Breakfast: The breakfast is amazing and very rich. They serve it right on your private terrace, which was a highlight of our stay. Services: They offer laundry service at a reasonable price. They are also very helpful with activity recommendations and can book tours/programs for you directly. The Garden: The garden is beautiful and well-kept, creating a peaceful atmosphere. Note for future guests: We stayed in the Deluxe Queen Room. It’s important to know that the bathroom door is made of clear glass, so it is transparent.

We enjoyed our stay in deluxe room! It was very clean in comparison to other stays on Sri Lanka, the toilette was sanitised, small toiletteries were provided, there was AC and a fan. European standards and super nice and helpful host! What's more, the delicious breakfast was brought to our room!

The host was very nice and friendly. Room was clean and spacious. The breakfast was very good, served outside on the terrace. The location was also perfect, very nearby all the sights (few minutes by foot). We totally recommend! :)

Maleesha and her family are very welcoming and friendly. The breakfast is delicious and the accommodation has the perfect location. You need 3 min to the town and also few meters to some hiking trails. I can highly recommend Maleeshas Homestay. Thanks you for having me!
