    Our stay at Windy Villa was great! The host was more than welcoming and friendly! He told us all about the places we can visit and activities we can do while in Polonaruva. One of the best things about this place is that it has a washing machine, and that was more than needed on this trip! Oh, yes, the host also welcomed us with some cold beer in the fridge :)

    The owner of Ruins Villa personifies hospitality. The room was clean and spacious. The location is perfect following a tour through the ancient city, for which I was given a bike. The real bonus here is the proximity to the jungle and the willingness of the owner to share his passion for the stunning wildlife around the place.
