The bungalow was calm and quiet, a great escape from the city, and we slept really well in the super-comfortable beds. Spending time by the fireplace made the stay feel extra special. The food was amazing, with every meal more enjoyable than we expected. From the moment we arrived, the incredibly friendly and helpful staff made us feel at home, and the service was top class. Even during the flooding and landslides in Sri Lanka, the area around the bungalow wasn’t affected, everything was fully functional, and we felt very safe. I’d recommend it 100% and will definitely visit again.
We found this place on google and booked it on the day we travelled for a friend's holiday in Feb 2026. Dileepan was extremely friendly and supportive throughout our stay. Our room was reasonably spacious for our budget, and the bathroom had all the lovely amenities. The bunglow also offers bbq facilities for those who need them. The highlight was the delicious, simple breakfast, with a choice of sri lankan or English. I’d recommend it to budget travelers, couples, and friends looking for a getaway from bustling city life.
The food was out of this world, and we had a great time by the fire pit. Shashi and Dileepa are the best staff we've met. We’re hoping to visit again soon and recommend the place.
The rooms felt really cozy, and the washrooms were good. The staff were excellent, very cordial and helpful, and they cook really well too.
We had such a pleasant stay, though I wish we could have stayed longer. The staff were welcoming, friendly, and attentive, and both the premises and our room were well maintained and cosy. The food was really well made.
