Wonderful Stay at SithRu Villa – Highly Recommended! We originally planned to stay just 2 nights at SithRu Villa in Matara, but we ended up extending my stay to 4 nights because the experience was so great! A special thank you to Mr. Mangala, the manager, who made my stay truly enjoyable. He was incredibly helpful and kind – he arranged a van with a very nice and reliable driver so I could explore Matara and the surrounding areas comfortably. It made a big difference in my trip. Mangala also helped me order delicious breakfasts and dinners, which I really appreciated. The food was tasty and freshly prepared, and the service was always warm and welcoming. The hotel itself is clean, peaceful, and beautifully maintained. The rooms are spacious and comfortable, and the overall atmosphere is relaxing – a perfect escape from the busy city life as I live in sjngapore with my family . If you’re visiting Matara, I highly recommend staying at SithRu Villa. The hospitality and service, especially from Mr. Mangala, made this one of the best parts of my trip. I’ll definitely return again!

I recently stayed at Shady Homestay Hiriketiya and had a wonderful experience. The homestay offers a cosy and comfortable atmosphere with all the essential amenities, making it a perfect choice for a relaxing getaway. The rooms were clean and well-maintained, providing a homely feel. The owner was friendly and accommodating, always ready to assist with any needs. The location is convenient, close to local attractions and transportation. While the facilities are not highly luxurious, they are more than sufficient for a pleasant stay, offering good value for the price. Overall, I highly recommend Shady Homestay Hiriketiya to anyone looking for a comfortable and welcoming place to stay.

A hidden pearl in Madhia. We have so much positive to say about this place. First of all, the host Priyantha and his family took such good care of us, always making sure we were good. Priyantha often said “If you’re happy I’m happy, if you’re not happy I’m not happy”. And we really want to emphasize how amazing the food we got served here was! We’ve been in Sri Lanka for a while now, and no this is by far the best local food we’ve had..!! The rooms are also very nice and fresh, and they also have a great roof top! Thank you for now, we are really looking forward to coming back to this place:)

    The villa and pool is gorgeous, with stunning views of the ocean. The beds, rooms and kitchen were well stocked with good bedding and kitchen supplies. The caretaker was very helpful with meeting us and showing us where everything was and how to use all the facilities. The restaurants are not close by, but it is a very quick drive or a 15min walk away and not as busy as the surfer town of Hiriketiya.
