He dropped us off at two places we wanted to go to for free. We got too late to grab some dinner & he bought us noodles & made them for us. Absolutely lovely, kind & caring host. True Sri Lankan hospitality! Thank you for having us here! The place was wonderful too! Great value for money. It was beyond my expectations! The bed was comfy, fresh linen & towels.. Big bathroom with hot water. There was a nice garden area & front porch to chill & have breakfast. It's a bit inland but walkable. Because it's inland it's very pretty & close to nature.
Guest Review: Our stay was perfect in this place - from the 1st minute we met the host till the minute we left. We even prolonged our stay. The place is beautiful - design, swimming pool, nature. You really can feel the surrounding nature, but at the same time very safe. The special thing is awesome breakfast served. Many thanks to the host - Nuwan, who really cares about his guests. He spent a lot of time with us, telling interesting things about his country, helping with some shopping & transport. We even made our own spice to take home with us and went to night crabs hunting on the beach !!!
