It was a very interesting and cool place to stay. We had a great time there with the owner and the other tourists. The dinner was very tasty and was prepared as a buffet so that you can spend time together with everyone. After dinner there was a musical attraction from the owner, which was also very nice. We also did the safari there. We traveled with the bikes and there was enough space to have them at our bungalow. Thank you very much for everything!

Great place to stay before/after doing a Yala safari. They were very helpful in organising a safari for us and breakfast to take with us on the safari. The room was clean and comfortable. Surrounded by nature. Less than 10 minute drive to town centre.

An amazing property and family. The room was huge and spacious with fan and AC and the bathroom was big. The whole property was very clean and tidy. The owner, his wife and daughter were lovely and made us so welcome. The daughters English is fantastic and she loves to practice it with you. This has to be the best place we stayed in 16 days in Sri Lanka. If you are doing a safari to Yala then this place is so close to the entrance (closer thank Tisso) and the owner can organise a jeep at a very good price. The owners wife even allowed me to watch and help her cook our dinner in her kitchen. The food was amazing. We would definitely recommend this place.
