This was a special stay for us. The staff went above and beyond for us and were constantly so warm, friendly, generous and lovely. We only wish we could’ve stayed longer and spent more time in the accommodation and with the staff. The facilities and space were extremely lovely, beautiful and very clean. Cannot recommend this place enough and we would 100% come back if we were ever in Kandy! Thank you for everything!

The rooms were really cozy and comfortable and we had a great sleep. The host and his family were really helpful. We were going on a hike, and host even sent a vehicle to pick our bags up from the city before check-in. Breakfast was great. They offered many types of food which was really tasty and fresh while also catering to our specific requests (eg: Allergies, Vegetarians). Overall a great experience.

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!

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.

I stayed at this hotel for 6 nights. The owner has worked in the guest service world for many years and I was pleased with the attention to detail during my stay. The breakfast each morning was a little different so as not to have the same menu. The location at the top of the mountain offers a great view and I would wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone who wants to spend a relaxing and peaceful stay. It was a stay that I can honestly say I would like to see people here again when I visit Sri Lanka next time. I wish all the people working here be happy!

The most amazing homestay ever! I would stay here again in a heartbeat. Firstly, the room has high ceilings and a beautiful balcony as well as a true king sized bed (one of the comfiest beds I have slept on). Secondly, the family is so kind and helpful. Truly felt like family staying here- they helped me order Uber eats to the house and you also have the option of ordering breakfast, lunch and dinner for an additional cost with the homestay. I ordered breakfast with them and it was delicious and worth the cost! Fresh fruits and omelette and dosas with chutney (there are also continental options). It is about a 15 minute drive to town so you are away from the noise and bustle of Kandy city (after spending time during the day in Kandy I was really happy to have my oasis at night). Tuk tuks to and from the stay cost 600-800 depending on your driver, but Vipul will drive you anywhere you need for a price if you have a hard time getting a Tuk Tuk. Everything was so clean and fresh, the bathroom was modern and I was able to do laundry with them for a small cost as well. I am going to miss this place and will return back if I am ever in Kandy again :)

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.
