The hostel is perfectly clean and comfortable, the vibes are amazing and friendly, the staff are amazing and the activities on offer and second to none. Family dinner is delicious and the perfect way to meet people and plan your days, and I really cannot recommend Roy’s Villa enough.

The guest house provides certain units that include a balcony and lake view, and all units have a private bathroom and a desk. At the guest house, units are equipped with bed linen and towels. The lady host is very kind and smilling. The location is beautifull just in front of the lake and the garden is pretty. The dinner and the breakfast was very delicious. Bandara messaged me and provided a free pick up from the bus station. Later we asked him for a Sigirian tour, and he provided the most detailed and beautifull tour to us. He knows a lot about the location and took us to special spots for photos. But above of all he is very responsible and makes you feel secure. We missed the right exit and were lost in the forest. But he found us very quickly in the dark. He was the perfect guide and friend we ever met in Sri Lanka.
