"The location is great. Great view , very quite and really short way to the Main Street (shortcut via railway tracks). The rooms are cozy and clean. Breakfast is delicious and best black coffee of Sri Lanka. The staff is very helpful and has very good advices for activities also beside tourist tracks. Check it out"

"The owner was so helpful and organised a guide for the rainforest almost as soon as we arrived for a great price! He also drove us to the bus station while we were leaving and gave us a lift for dinner which was so lovely! The view was absolutely amazing and was a very relaxing place!"

"Absolutely perfect! My family of four recently stayed at Cottage 2010. The cottage was spotless upon arrival, and the cleanliness was impressive throughout. The ambience felt cozy and inviting, like a true home away from home, with thoughtful decor that enhanced the warmth of the space. The service was exceptional; the staff was attentive and made us feel welcome, going above and beyond to ensure our stay was comfortable. From the beautiful surroundings to the excellent upkeep, every detail was carefully attended to. Highly recommended for a peaceful family getaway"

"We had an amazing two days at Stafford Bungalow. The butlers and the guides were so helpful and accommodating with anything we needed."

"Very peaceful location away from road. Good breakfast too! Friendly family, gave good advice on travelling to my next destination and arranged multiple tuk tuk pick ups throughout the stay."

"Incredible stay. The family that run Mansala are so welcoming and friendly and went above and beyond to provide us with a delicious dinner and breakfast. The room was so spacious, clean and comfortable. The safari Mansala organised for us was brilliant the guide was so knowledgeable, took his time and ended up staying an extra hour so we didn't miss out on all the elephants sightings."

"Every aspect of this boutique, modern eco lodge was AMAZING! We stayed for a couple of days after Christmas and loved the festive feel, fire pits, and beautiful sunrise and sunsets. The buildings blend in with the landscape and interiors are stunning - recommend staying in Chalet Neru. The food was delicious and higher end and the fruit / veg grown onsite. Our kids loved the farm tour and homemade ice cream and jams. All staff were super friendly, professional and seemed genuinely happy to work there. Kitchen was accommodating with my allergy restrictions. I’d been concerned about insects before we arrived however only spotted a couple of stick insects outdoors during our trip. Everyone in our family wished we could have stayed at the property for at least one more night."

"The host was very friendly and helpful. The studio was comfortable, well equipped and - most importantly for me as a digital nomad -it was suitable for remote work. The internet was fast and stable, and there was a table I could use as a desk. Location is good - in a quiet area, 10-15 min. walk to the beach."

"The staff were very friendly and helpful when we arrived and provided a lovely breakfast both mornings we were there. The dining room has a tea/coffee area where we could help ourselves, also a water cooler. The room itself was nice and spacious with a beautiful view, and the bed was really comfortable. The location is not right in the town centre, but we found it easy to walk around. You'll notice the cool climate definitely helps. The first night we walked down to Themparadu for dinner and that was fantastic. Our room also had a balcony and we could exit via an external door if we wanted to."
