The Host were super friendly and helpful. Picked us up from the Airport for a small fee and took us to the Bus Station the next day. He gave us good tipps for traveling here. The accommodation had everything you need, with good airconditioning, a very nice breakfast and a welcome treat.

“Clean and convenient place when coming from airport… worryless”
Close to bus stop (to Sigiriya, Polonnaruwa, etc.), and easy to reach by tuk tuk from the airport. The room was clean and the owner very kind… some restaurants nearby. Close to main road but still very quiet.

“Great final night in Sri Lanka”
This was the perfect place to stay for our final night in Sri Lanka. We got sent off by our host in the kindest manner, with breakfast packed for the road and a tuk-tuk ordered to get us to the airport on time. We had to leave at 5am, so it was extra early service and there was no problem at all! The room was very clean and comfortable. It's rather small, and so is the bathroom, but both perfectly functional. AC worked very well and there was hot water in the shower.

“Good stay”
We had a good stay in Number 01 Taprobane. Nishanta came to pick us up at the airport and we had a chatting on the way to his house. He and his wife welcomed us with a juice. The room was good and comfortable. The breakfast was really yummy too.

“One of my best memory in Sri Lanka”
The room and AC is perfect, the hosts is very kind, welcoming, and reliable. They told me the cheapest way to get to the airport, how to eat curd, and everything about Sri Lanka. I think I’m sooo lucky to choose this guesthouse! Thank you so much

“Best accommodation in Negombo!”
We had a great stay at their homestay. Our room was spacious, clean and very comfy. AC and WiFi worked fine. We felt super welcome there and the owners are the nicest people we met in Sri Lanka. It’s the perfect place for staying before or after your flight or just in general if you’re near Colombo. They even prepared an early breakfast for us before our flight. We only stayed one night but we wished we could’ve l stayed longer there. We will be back!

“Friendly place to stay in Negombo”
Host Nishantha was extremely helpful when we had a last minute request for a very late checkin. It was clean and good value. The location is good for anyone arriving in Negombo by bus.

Everything was perfect! Nishanta is a fantastic host. He helped me to plan the continuation of my trip with clear information, he also called the tuk tuk for go to the Airport. We stay just one night but it was a pleasure to meet him. Room is spacious and comfy and the breakfast was delicious and abundant. High recommended!

“Best HomeStay in Sri Lanka”
This has been my best experience as a traveler so far. I have stayed in Number 01 by Taprobane and also booked tours to Kandy, Nuwara Eliya, Galle/Bentota/Hikkaduwa and Negombo. Overall experience has been fascinating. I have always felt at home during stay. Nishantha and his family have gone above and beyond to make my stay memorable. The tours were also perfectly planned. The timings and places chosen were spot on and each tour was worth every penny. If I visit Sri Lanka again or if any of friends visit Sri Lanka again, then Nishantha is to-go-person who will take care of all aspects to ensure a memorable holiday experience.
