Jude and Isuru are the most amazing hosts ever, they immediately made us feel like we were apart of their family, we booked for one night and ended up staying for two. We would have stayed longer if we weren't on a tight schedule. We all shared meals together, played heaps of games, had lots of Leo and Levi cuddles and heaps of great conversations. When we come back to sri lanka we will be staying with them again. Room was comfy with mozzie nets and a key for privacy. Jude gave us all the hotspots to visit around Unawatuna and also did a cooking class with us which was fun and the food was amazing. Sweetest host family, thank you so much for having us, hopefully see you all again in the future.

I stayed at Pinidu's hostel for a total of 4 nights. It is easily among the best hostel experiences I have ever had (having stayed at more than 40 in the past few years...). The room/bed/bathroom is spotless. The hosts are extremely attentive to detail- gave me tour of the garden and recommendations about where to visit. Above all, I must say that Pinidu is an exceptional human being. After I left the hostel, I had a medical emergency and contacted him for advice. He exchanged with people he knew and sent a friend to the hospital to personally make an appointment for me as I returned to the city. I stayed again at his place for two more nights while I did more tests, during which he was extremely supportive and sought to help me be comfortable. I cannot recommend this place enough. Especially for people who like a calm environment in nature. Peace from Canada <3
