The architecture is sublime, a little oasis in busy Colombo. The room was spacious, the bed was super comfortable and the bathroom was a lovely design. Communication with Manolji was very easy. Highly recommend!

Very nice garden with birds. The family is very welcoming and helpful. The AC is new. It's a little far from the city but with 2 EUR with tuk tuk you arrive in the center.

Amazing boutique hotel, we choose it because of the art and design , but when we arrived it was much more. The hotel upgraded to the room with jacuzzi, but it was the garden and the furniture, the mosaics and the details that fascinated us.

This place is an oasis in Colombo. We just had one overnight after our arrival at Colombo airport. It’s about 45min from the airport (wo. traffic jam). The interieur and garden area of the boutique hotel is really nice. The staff was very friendly and supportive. The Sri Lankan breakfast is a recommendation.

It was extremely clean, the vegan food (Sri Lankan breakfast and dinner) was excellent. I came from Kandy, but apparently the place is easily accessible from the Katunayaka airport via the highway.

I had the most wonderful stay at this family beach villa in Sri Lanka. The view was breathtaking, the breakfast was delicious, and the host made me feel truly at home. Their warmth and hospitality were beyond commendable — it felt like staying with family. A peaceful, beautiful getaway that I’ll always cherish. Highly recommended!
