Facing the seafront in Delft East, Delft Village stay has free bikes and a garden. Boasting a shared kitchen, this property also provides guests with an outdoor fireplace. The homestay features garden views, a sun terrace and a 24-hour front desk. The accommodation is right in the village and just a 5 min walking distance from the most beautiful sandy beach. You sleep in big tents, which have fans, mosquitoe nets and chargers. The staff is really nice and the island is beautiful. They say you should not expect a hotel stay which makes sense, but we thought it was so much more than that because it just feels like paradise. You have hammocks all around the property and areas to just sit and chill. You can rent bikes for the island and explore the nature and wildlife.

Allens home stay, a property with a terrace, is set in Jaffna, 600 metres from Nallur Kandaswamy Temple, 1.5 km from Jaffna Railway Station, as well as 2.6 km from Jaffna Public Library. The property is around 3.1 km from Jaffna Fort, 14 km from Nilavarai Well and 20 km from Naguleswaram Temple. The guest house offers rooms with air conditioning, free private parking and free WiFi. We traveled around Sri Lanka and of all the places we stayed at, we enjoyed Allen's the most. All worked as described, Allen was ready to help with anything, breakfasts were tasteful and fruit-ful, even wifi worked well (very uncommon during the majority of our other stays). Plus the place is clean and has a cool and laid-back vibe and Allen is a kind host. Fully recommended! Thank you, Allen!

With a private bathroom, units at the homestay also have free WiFi, while certain rooms also offer a balcony. At the homestay, some units are fitted with a kettle and fruits.

For guests with children, the homestay features a baby safety gate. Both a bicycle rental service and a car rental service are available at Munril Guest, while walking tours can be enjoyed nearby. Absolutely lovely stay at Munril Guest! The rooms are spacious, spotlessly clean, and equipped with both air conditioning and a fan. The villa itself is beautiful, with a peaceful and green setting just a few minutes by tuk-tuk from the city center, a perfect balance of quiet and convenience. The facilities are excellent, but what really stands out is the incredible friendliness and helpfulness of the hosts. They even offered free rides to local sights, which was a wonderful bonus. Breakfast was also delicious and well-prepared. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Jaffna!
