An absolute gem of a homestay. The hosts were friendly and helpful, the room and the bathroom — spotlessly clean, the bed — comfy, dinner and breakfast that the lady owner cooked for me — filling and tasty. What more is there to ask for?

    Easily one of the best homestays during our whole trip to Sri Lanka and definitely the best room. It was designed really uniquely and we loved it. Host is very friendly and helpful, also cooks good food in his restaurant! Easy to get to Ambuluwawa tower, and when we got back the most amazing breakfast was waiting for us.

    The rooms are nicely designed, clean and comfortable. No air con but the fan above the bed worked well. The owner, Dulip, is a lovely person and great host. Him and his wife were very friendly. The food is also tasty. Dulip arranged a tuk tuk tour of Ambuluwawa Tower which was perfect as we were the first ones at the top of the tower when the gates opened at 7:45am.

    The owner were very helpfull, they picked us from the busstation for free. It's possible to get tasty local food (breakfast, lunch & dinner). It's possible to fly the drone from the rooftop or doing Yoga. We would recommend the homestay.
