Good location, quiet. I had very good sleep. The building is new. The owners were really nice! We had a nice chat during the rain. The husband has a tuktuk and dropped me in Inamaluwa (not for free of course) to catch my bus. Breakfast is included. Simple but good!

best hostel forever and absolutely my stay at this hostel loved and peace From the moment I arrived, the staff were incredibly kind, welcoming, and always happy to help. The place was very clean and comfortable, which made it easy to relax and feel at home. Breakfast was delicious and a great way to start the day. One of the highlights was the beautiful lake nearby — such an amazing spot! We went swimming there, and it was peaceful, refreshing, and unforgettable. The surroundings are stunning and perfect if you enjoy nature. Overall, this hostel has a great vibe, excellent staff, and a lovely location. I would highly recommend it and would happily stay here again.

If you are looking for something different, the tree house accommodation here is a must-try. Staying surrounded by trees and nature creates a peaceful and refreshing atmosphere that is hard to find in typical hotels. The entire property is well maintained and thoughtfully designed to blend with the environment. The restaurant area is spacious and nicely built across two levels, offering a great place to relax and enjoy meals. The staff are friendly and attentive, and the location allows easy access to Sigiriya Rock and Pidurangala Rock. A truly unique experience.

Best hostel stay I’ve ever had. Would recommend everyone to visit to feel the hospitality of this family. I felt so welcome and relaxed while staying in these beautiful jungle surroundings! The day trips the owner arranged for us were amazing, and it was such a social and good vibe all over.

the PERFECT place to relax on a budget ! amazing location right next to the lake (although do not follow the map - the property is 10m down Wilhatha Colony Road). very comfortable and friendly with amazing food. Mahinda is a brilliant host. cannot wait to come back to see him. good location to see sights (Sigirya/Dambulla) without being touristic. MUST DO
