This property has amazing views, so clean and beautiful. The best thing about this place though is the family, I will never forget how warm hearted they were and instantly felt like they cared for me. We chatted a lot, and we all ate together in the evenings, easily will be one of my most cherished memories in Sri Lanka. You have to stay here!! Kindest people ever.

Very nice house with beautiful little garden. The room is furnished with great taste, the garden is full of flowers. The family is super nice and friendly, they treated my daughter as their own. They also organize cooking classes, which I absolutely recommend: it is taking place in an authentic kitchen with traditional utensilies, and is the owner's mom who teaches you about spices, local vegetables, and how to cook some very tasty Sri Lankan meal. She is great! Breakfast is an amazing selection of local dishes, and it's plenty. Our host was also very nice, ready to help with anything, explaining about culture and what to see in Kandy. He helped with our laundry, organized for us tuktuk to the citiy, and took us to the train station when we were leaving. The whole family was very nice and attentive to our every need. The location is outside of Kandy, a bit far from the center, but because of this it is very quiet, and it's surrounded by nature. I highly recommend it! Even if you don't stay here, try the cooking class!

Behind the closed doors off the road you walk into an amazing place! The hotel is really quirky and unique it's been thought about alot and it's a place I won't forgot from my time in Sri Lanka! Really lovely hosts who can't do enough for you and book your tuk tuk and help plan your time in Kandy. The bed was so comfy and the room was very clean and again had the quirky touches!

Hands down the best guest house during the entire Sri Lanka trip and one of the best in my many years of solo travelling. Room - brand new, large, comfortable bed with very cozy wooden and modern decoration. Good lighting at all hours. WiFi worked perfectly- was having multiple video calls for work. Nice bathroom - plenty of hot water and most importantly has glass shields to separate from toilet. Location - can’t be any better! 3 mins walk to the best view point in Kandy, 10 mins walk to Kandy Lake. The best photos I took in Kandy were all from the terrace, being able to watch beautiful sunrise/sunset and the panoramic view of Kandy everyday. Services - the host family is superb. Homemade and nutritious breakfast every morning that introduces you to local Sri Lanken cuisine. They are extremely knowledgeable of the country in every aspect and give great tips for travelling. While always there to help, they have a lot of privacy to each guest .

This place was like being at home during our stay in Kandy. Vipul,Kosala and her mother were like family for us. The room is amazing with a beautiful view. Everything was perfectly clean and nice. Kosala's food was amazing, she cooked for us vegetarian rice and curry every night and delicious breakfast, our favorite food in Sri Lanka. Vipul was very friendly from the beginning, he offers transport service with his own car, which is something very convenient. We already miss them so much and we are looking forward to return to our Sri Lankan family!
