Piumi and her family were super nice and helped with everything. The room was great, the beach was less than 5 minutes away and the food, which was home cooked, was fantastic. We had a great stay.

Summary Our stay at Happy Man Village was a perfect blend of relaxation, adventure, and heartwarming hospitality. The attentive staff and beautiful surroundings made this an unforgettable experience. We can’t wait to return to this hidden gem! Our recent stay at Happy Man Village was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment we arrived, the staff provided hospitality from the heart—always smiling, receptive, and genuinely anticipative of our needs. Their warmth made us feel welcomed and comfortable throughout our entire stay. Room: The spacious and clean room featured a modern outdoor bathroom that added to the charm. Being secluded, with a good distance from the next cabana, we enjoyed the serenity and had the pleasure of observing the local wildlife in nature. Outdoors: This property truly allows you to disconnect. It is peaceful, with a beautiful garden and pool, and is situated far enough from the main street that we couldn’t hear any noise. Yet, we were close enough to the beach to enjoy the soothing sounds of the waves, which were just a ten-minute walk away. Services: Happy Man Village offers a complimentary drop-off and pick-up service to beaches and restaurants via tuk-tuk. We were fortunate to be escorted to a temple where a monk provided thoughtful explanations about the local culture. Additionally, they offer laundry services (for a fee) and kindly arranged a massage for us on the property (also for a fee). We highly recommend the boat tour along the river or lake, where you can immerse yourself in the local jungle and see the train tracks washed away by the 2004 tsunami. Our suggestion is to do it at sunset, so you can see the birds returning home to roost. Food: Before our last night, we took a cooking class with the chef in the kitchen, which was a delightful and fun experience. We had a great exchange while learning the secrets of Sri Lankan curry. The dinner at the restaurant on the second evening was equally delicious!

This was a perfect calming experience. The cottage was comfortable and super clean. And the most valuable was the kindness and hospitability of the family, who host us. All the members of the family were opened to all our questions and were explaining about all plants, that are growing in their lovely garden.The garden is full of Ayurvedic plants and the housekeeper cooked us a delicious dinner using Ayurvedic plants and local ingridients.They offered us free transportation to turtle centre near by and explained about best local tours. We appreciate the whole experience and we were sorry we did not plan another day at this hospitable place.

The rooms very big and are completely new well-equipped (rain shower, hot tab, hot water, mirror, kettle,...), great bathroom, nice terrace , the bed was huge and really comfy and everything was super clean. The entire facility is very modern and well maintained. Wonderful quiet village, cargils supermarket and fruet store is very close, less than 5 minutes walk. The place is very calm and close to Bentota city center, about 10 minutes ride. Close to lunch-dinner places. Would 100% recommend it. Thank you so much for everything!
