The Guest House is in close proximity to Bentota train station and the beach. The rooms and the entire facility are very clean and tastefully decorated, the breakfast is very varied and plentiful. Everything is surpassed by the exceptional friendliness, helpfulness and hospitality of the owner, who is happy to answer questions, give tips and take very individual care of her guests.

The calm and quiet surrounding, clean and tidy bedroom and bathroom, convenience of location (close to the main road/not too far from the Bentota town), friendly host, and most of all Value for Money! We were attending a wedding at a nearby hotel and the host kindly let us back into the room even after checking out earlier in the day so that we could freshen up before our long journey back home.

It is absolutely amazing value for such a small price. There are 2 cabins in the garden of a local family. Also, there is a beautiful bathroom with working hot water (not always the case in Sri Lanka). The family was professional, spoke good English and was always there when you needed them, however otherwise it was very private. You can order great breakfast and dinner for the lowest price I have seen in Sri Lanka and also the laundry is very affordable. It was so quiet there and just in middle of nature, I loved walking in the village. You would be staying in a beautiful and peaceful village, however the centre and beach is only 20 minutes walk away + tuk tuk is like 30 cents. The cabin was very comfortable, it had a really strong fan, good universal socket and huge bed. Also towels included. If you look for a peaceful stay at local village then this place is for you.

    This property was a real oasis on the other side of the railway track. It was luxurious, had lovely decor, had a good pool, had great hosts and was excellent value. The breakfasts were fantastic and our host Nelson cooked us 2 delicious meals on our 2 nights there - the food was so good that we just didn’t want to eat anywhere else. Right up there with all the places we stayed in during our Sri Lankan holiday. A great find!

    Such a beautiful home right on the river. The family who runs this homestay are incredibly kind and went out of their way to make us comfortable. The daily breakfast was plentiful and delicious, consisting of omelettes, bread, fruit, fresh juice and tea or coffee. The balcony was a beautiful place to watch the sunset and the room included access to a little kitchen with a kettle so we could make our own pots of tea and coffee. It was the perfect place to rest and explore Bentota.

    We liked everything. Room was clean and tidy as shown in pics. Initially had booked this stay for one night but we extended our stay for one more night as we liked the home stay. We are pure vegiterian and it was very difficult for us to find veg restaurants in srilanka. And finally we got authentic and very tasty veg food in this stay. Owner is very cooperative. This was our bestest stay in our 8 days srilanka trip.
