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.

Hemaka and his wife are doing a great job, we were welcomed with an ice coffee and a cold towel. Rooms are clean and great view from the Kandy Hills to the City. We reached the city centre within 20 mins by walking. I would recommend this home stay any time.

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!

This place is stunningly beautiful! It's an oasis of tranquility and wellness very close to the city centre. As soon as you walk in you will be overwhelmed by the amazing artwork and the amazing style of the villa. Didn't find anything comparable to this hidden gem! It's just next level. The owner is super kind and makes you feel like a king/queen. Grazie mille fratello!

Lovely room, spotlessly clean. Calm neighborhood away from the citys hassle. Tuktuk from railway station was 300-400 LKR. It's on a top of the hill, easy to walk to the bus/railway station from there. Breakfast was amazing and the couple who are keeping the place are so nice!!

We spent three nights at this lovely house with a beautiful terrace offering a magnificent view of the Hanthana range. The cleanliness was impressive, and the bathroom was well-stocked with toothpaste, shampoo, and body wash. The breakfast and dinner was delicious. The family’s exceptional efforts to ensure our comfort coupled with all other facilities made it our best stay in Sri Lanka.

10/10 on all accounts. This homestay was our favourite accomodation in Sri Lanka by far!! With an amazing view, lovely, clean bedrooms (with a really comfy bed), and the best hosts you could ask for, we would recommend this place to anyone! Definitely will make your trip in Kandy, and if you can spend a few days Vipul will happily do tours to local areas which I can only imagine are excellent!

Very nice and welcoming family, providing you a pleasant stay. Got coffee and Jackfruit as I arrived. Spacious and spotless clean room. Comfortable bed. Good wifi. On the hill, away from the hectic city life, but still only 15 min walking distance to the center. You can use a private entrance if you want. Use the exhaust air fan in the wall against moisty air. Water was cold, but not too cold.
