There is nothing to dislike about this place. The rooms are new, clean, cozy and they have AC. The bathrooms are large and sparly clean. The family that owns the place are very friendly and helpful. The food they prepare is delicious. The lobby offers a generous space to relax and work. You can even enjoy the sight of crocodiles swimming or sunbathing in the river from the terrace above. I can’t recommend this place enough! We have enjoyed it

Extremely kind & accomodating hosts. They served us coconut water on arrival. The location is 45 mins away from yala national park, block 1. The host himself arranges safari so guests can book with him. He is very prompt for all the needs and he contacted us as soon as we booked the stay. Our food choices were very well taken care of. Lovely breakfast: pic attached. He let us check out a little late as we wanted to do the safari and provided us breakfast when we wanted. Room was very nice with clean linen and towels. Soaps were provided. Hot water was available. Ceiling fan present. Host keeps all necessary beverages in the fridge which can be bought from him.

The place is beautifully located in a rice paddy. The room was spacious, clean and comfortable. The hosts were kind, helpful and lovely (x10). We found the home cooked meals (breakfast and dinner) better than what the restaurants in town could offer. We booked our Yala safari through them and everything went smoothly. I can not speak highly enough of the place and the owners.

If you are looking for accommodation and safari this is just right spot for you. Sanjeewa is one of the kindest person we have met in whole Sri Lanka. He welcomed us with homemade mango fresh juice from his garden. Told us about fruits and stuff around the place. He arranged everything for us ! We had tasty homemade lunch after safari and room upgrade for free. He also took us to bus station and put us on the right bus to Mirrisa. Thank you for memorable time!!! We will come again!

    Wow our host was the best! He was so incredibly helpful. Fixed the aircon right away, helped us with repairs on the tuktuk and brought us cool drinks and coffee exactly when we needed it😁. The rooms are big and comfortable, with a large bed. Nice shower, quiet location. Lastly we booked an amazing safari in the National Park @ the guesthouse. Couldn't be more satisfied with this accommodation!
