“Booking.com uploaded the room which was given to us, not worthy for a family”
Arrogant Hospitality what was excepted on the site booking rooms, it was quite opposite

Quiet area 30 min away from Kandy center but at least you will get fresh air, no noise and no pollution. And a superb welcome from the guests!

“Super stay!”
We had a fantastic stay. The house is breathtaking, the room is spacious and clean and the hosts take very good care of you. We had delicious breakfasts and dinners and they made sure a tuktuk was arranged for us to go back and forth from Kandy.

Jungle Tide was an absolutely beautiful place to stay! After a busy day in Kandy, it was the perfect place to escape and relax. What a stunning view to wake up to, so many birds in the gorgeous garden and surrounds and a beautifully decorated home with interesting pieces of art. From the moment we arrived, just the choice of books in the entrance hall made us want to stay for a week and relax on the verandah! Martin and Rani were perfect hosts and the meals were amazing! They helped book a tuk tuk for our transport each day. We enjoyed having access to the kitchen for the filtered water and to make tea. The cherry on top were the two well behaved dogs who took us for a walk! Thank you Jerry and Sally for an exquisite place to stay. We were sorry not to meet you.

“Great place to swim and watch birds”
Beautiful main house and veranda with a fabulous view. Lots of birds in surrounding area and huge child-friendly swimming pool. Nice walks through tea plantations and easy to get the bus to Kandy. The food was delicious and I was excited to eat a rhubarb crumble made from Sri Lankan rhubarb. Sally the British owner has lovely stories about her life and childhood in Sri Lanka. Everything was clean and well maintained.

“Could have, perhaps should have, been bettet”
Sally and Jenny, the owners, were delightful. We stayed in Mulberry Cottage which was a bit grimy while our friends had a much better time of it in the main building. The meals were lovely and the general vibe was very friendly but for us the whole experience was let down by the quality of the accommodation in the annex cottage.
