Extremely friendly family in a hidden secret and beautiful space. Even though Nelum was not home, because of an accident her son managed our stay responsibly and took good care of us. The pure homestay experience!

Nelum and her family were very friendly and supportive. Nelum is a great cook. I enjoyed two delicious meals prepared by her. Isuru is a good tuktuk driver. I always felt very safe travelling with him. Around her house you have many trees. It's a bit a jungle feeling. I would definitely come back and stay with Nelum and her lovely family again. Cheers, Konrad

“Family guesthouse with great food!”
The food was delicious, her family was lovely including her older son for driving me to the one hike for 1000 and to Dambulla after for 1500. She was very kind and I appreciate the help with making my curry. Nelum made great breakfasts such as cocunut/millet roti with dal, fruit, and tea; which were included and a well priced dinner which was great too. She was flexible with what she made. The room has 2 fans to keep things cool.

“Authentic experience!”
Very nice homestay. We had a wonderfull experience meeting the family. Nelum is a very talented and lovely woman. She went out of here way to help us and was always very kind and friendly. Location is close the the main road so easy to visit restaurants and bars. We also ate two nights at the homestay which was very tasty! Breakfast was good and also enough! Many homestays in Sri lanka are not like a homestay, they are more like hotels/guesthouses. If you want a real homestay experience, stay at this place. We hope to come back someday!
