“Quiet sanctuary close to airport”
Great location close to the airport and it felt like a little sanctuary to start our trip around Sri Lanka. Kennath the owner is lovely and very patient and caring with our two young children. Breakfast was really tasty!

A beautiful accommodation with many small and large details that made our stay unique. Kenneth took very good care of us and was present but not intrusive. A truly loving and committed person. I would like to recommend this special accommodation to everyone. I would immediately stay again for at least a week.

“Amazing!”
I was very pleased with my stay. The owner was very friendly. The breakfast was great and value for money is second to none. It is just the relaxing stay we needed after a flight.

“Safe, peaceful, spotlessly clean, helpful and kind owner.”
Quick and helpful communication from Kenneth the owner, from the start. The entire garden surrounding the guesthouse is lovingly maintained. Mangos trees everywhere! Beautiful gardens and rooms. Free Water available for refilling your drink bottle. The rooms themselves and the dining area and pool were absolutely spotless. Not a speck of dust or dirt anywhere. The curry dinner was delicious with all the sides, the breakfast was simple but tasty. The owner even made my daughter her favourite noodles on request. The owner also organised for our stay ( on request) a spa treatment, tuk tuk transport, and our airport transport. A peaceful stay in a busy part of the world. The pool is clean and refreshing after a hot day. And the fireflies!!! Ask about the fireflies :) a great joy for us to see in the garden. Would stay again without hesitation. 20 mins from the airport, but no airport noise.

“The best place to stay in Sri Lanka”
The room was absolutely clean and comfortable. AC working well. Comfortable beds and we all had the best sleep in Sri Lanka. The breakfast place has mesh windows so that no need to worry about mosquitoes and flies. We saw lots of fire flies before we went to bed and that made our Sri Lanka trip closed beautifully. The owner is approachable and helpful. Highly recommend staying here few nights.

Actually we arrived late night, thought it will be closer vs Colombo; however still took -25 min to drive & if you wish to have just a bed, then it is okay; we did not have lunch, as the choice was only sandwiches; I would recommend to go to Colombo, because paying just a little bit more you would have really nice hotel with great choices of breakfast
