Our stay at the accommodation was excellent! The place was very clean, well-equipped, and located in a beautiful area. We had everything we needed, and the balcony was a lovely bonus. The host was super responsive and helpful, always quick to reply. We felt very comfortable and really enjoyed our time there. Highly recommend this place!

My room was clean and spacious. But the best part of my stay was definitely the owner - funny and genuine. He took the time to show me the wildlife of his town and shared his love for birds with me. Definitely a highlight of my Sri Lanka experience.

Very nice and comfortable place. the staff are very well taken care of and prepare breakfast before an early safari. at the same time, the staff is also invisible, so you feel that the whole villa belongs to you (if there are no other guests). we spent most of our time on the terrace by the pool, meaning in the common area, which was very nice to be around.

We liked the location next to the lake and the huge amount of wildlife we could enjoy watching while sitting on the balcony or in the beautifully kept garden. The host family are extremely welcoming and we felt well looked after with suggestions on things to do and help arranging tuktuks etc. The home cooking was perhaps the best we have had in Sri Lanka and generous in proportion (1 dish will easily serve 2+) and well priced. We enjoyed a local specialty, buffalo curd with treacle see photos), amongst other dishes. The location is a little out of the city but we liked that it was quiet, peaceful and offered the lake view, the room itself is basic but what you need - think of it as glamping and the rustic nature part of the wildlife aesthetic.

This place is great, especially for the price. The rooms are large and clean, and the surrounding area is peaceful. The owner and his family go above and beyond to ensure you have a great stay and can coordinate a private or group safari tour to Yala National Park which includes the entrance fee, food, drinks, & driver/guide. After a full day safari, we had dinner at the homestay with amazing flavor and large portions (same with breakfast). 10/10 recommend staying here.
