Had the most amazing experience at this property. Located beside the main road, 2-3 minutes drive to the Maskeliya town. Room was just as described in the website, very spacious, clean and fresh. Bed and pillows were very comfortable. And there were extra pillows and sheets in case you needed. There were ironing facilities, a mirror, a table lamp beside the bed, a towel rack and an extra cloth rack. And there were two plugs on each side near the bed. Towels and free toiletries were also provided. Bathroom was also very clean and equipped with necessary items, and had hot water facility also. And you can buy food from their with a range of options. And there was a shared balcony with a beautiful view, a dining area, and a fan to use if needed outside the rooms. And most importantly the owner was very friendly and kind enough to guide us through the places that we could visit. Highly recommended for anyone who wish to visit Maskeliya. Really worth the money you pay.

the family running the stay are very nice, I booked budget room but I was upgraded to the deluxe room with balcony facing the river at no extra cost. I ended up extending my stay as I liked the Homestay, family and area so much. The included breakfast was delicious and I was given options of what I wanted (not been offered that anywhere else) I had dinner every evening as the home cooked rice and curry was so tasty. plenty of options on day trips and things to do provided by the family. bed super comfy and really nice hot showers. I loved my stay here. I’d definitely stay again

    This place is Amazing ! Comfy, cosy, well equiped, quiet at night. I could have stayed a month easily ! The food is super good and the daughter of the hosts is a very skilled and passionate ayurvedic doctor. She can make ayurvedic massages but also helping you treating naturally your diseases. I was trekking around, there are waterfalls, a nice lake with tea fields, and the section 8 of the pekoe trail from Norwood (going by bus) in the most beautiful tea fields of sri lanka.

    Great location to discover the waterfalls in the area and Adam's peak. From Hatton it's easy to reach by bus (every 30 minutes). Nice family run guesthouse with basic rooms, good food, great view, everything you need. Great value for little money.

    Situated in a beautiful location a few minutes away from the reservoir. Lovely hosts. This Guesthouse and area warrants two nights but, like us, most people only plan for the one so they can complete Adam's Peak. They know some lovely tuktuk drivers to take you there.

    We were warmly welcomed with a cup of tea. The owner contacted us beforehand to arrange a tuk tuk from the train station to the guesthouse. This driver stopped along the way to show nice viewpoints. This driver also drove us to the start point of Adam’s Peak (25min drive). We felt safe with him since a night drive is more challenging. We felt immediately at home at Heaven Hills Guest House. We had a delicious homemade rice curry. Internet works very fast and you have a nice view from the bedroom/dining room.
