Breakfast was good and they supplied excellent home cooked dinner at very reasonable cost The owner was very helpful showing us local highlights personally and booking our tour tickets and checking all went to plan

Living area needs painting , Seating needs cushions, needs to supply jug tea coffee plates and small fridge prior to visitors arriving to supply needed items and ensure a more pleasant arrival.

מומלץ!

המארח מקסים, נתן לנו הרגשה של משפחה, דאג לכל מבוקשנו בכל דקה של היום והתלווה אלינו בתור מדריך לכל מקום שהלכנו אליו ללא כל תמורה. במקום עצמו נותן את ההזדמנות להכיר את התרבות וחיי הכפר האמיתיים.

Amazing host!

Really friendly host, who went out of his way to show us around the area and was very helpful in sorting a safari and transport for our on ward travel. It’s in a lovely area, off the tourist trail and has very good Wi-Fi.

Great stay

10.0

Incredibly friendly and helpful. Was taken both ways to boat tour at 6am. Charged $30USD for the boat tour which is extremely reasonable. The accommodation was great even though it's on main road it was not noisy at all. AC and hot shower. Bathroom clean. Was nice to have large separate living area with kettle and tea. There is a washing machine also. Really comfortable bed and long too with no wooden end. Had an amazing breakfast made by Mum which accommodated my food allergies. Was recommended to go to archeological site only 200 meters down the road which was really interesting and the trees and natural vine swing was cool too. One of the best places I have stayed. Definitely recommend

Behulpzame buurman regelt fantastisch het verblijf in huisje dat poetsbeurt nodig heeft

3.0

De buurman van de host deed enorm zijn best om ons goed te ontvangen en te begeleiden naar de bootsafari, maar de host zelf was er niet. De host had een bootsafari voor ons geregeld en deze kon doorgaan. Het diner gemaakt door de moeder van de buurman en ook het Aziatisch ontbijt was goed. De lakens, de handdoeken en het toilet zelf waren proper. De airco in de kamer werkte. Er was water in de koelkast. De buurman nam ons mee voor een wandeling naar een opgegraven tempel in de jungle.

Het huis/de kamer was erg vuil en leek lange tijd niet gepoetst (vloeren, oppervlakken en spiegel) of onderhouden (sanitair). Er is geen tuin of lakeview zoals beschreven. De foto's komen niet meer overeen met de huidige toestand. De host was in Colombo, waardoor de buurman alles zelf moest uitzoeken. Dat deed hij heel nauwgezet en heel vriendelijk. Prijs /kwaliteit niet in evenwicht.
