I started Queens Residence as a small business because I wanted to create something personal and high-quality. I am deeply passionate about what I do, and I believe that the smallest details make the biggest difference. I take great pride in being a hard worker, and I personally ensure that everything—from the bed linens to the common areas—is kept perfectly clean and spotless. I believe that a clean and orderly home is essential for a peaceful mind, and I work tirelessly to maintain that standard for every visitor. Running this small business is my dream, and I put my heart into every meal I cook and every recommendation I give. I am dedicated to making sure your stay is authentic, comfortable, and memorable. I can’t wait to welcome you to my home!

Despite this secluded atmosphere, you are never far from the action. We are just a short 10–15 minute drive (approx. 4 km) from the vibrant Kandy City Center. Must-see landmarks like the UNESCO World Heritage Temple of the Sacred Tooth Relic (Sri Dalada Maligawa) and the scenic Kandy Lake are easily accessible. Nature enthusiasts will also love our proximity to the Udawatta Kele Sanctuary, a historic royal forest reserve located just minutes away, and the Royal Botanic Gardens is a simple drive from our doorstep.
