People, you can't miss this place! We travel for such places and people! Ruwan and his family are fantastic people! During our stay, we felt like VIP guests! We were taken care of all the time - Ruwan and his family brought us coffee, tea, juices, sweets all the time! They don't even want money for these extras! This is crazy! Ruwan took us on a tour of his farm, showed us how to grow some vegetables, fruits, cinnamon, pepper and much more! When it comes to food - as someone wrote earlier... this family deserves a Michelline star... the variety of food we got in the queue was simply amazing! It was a real feast, new flavors, everything is organic, fresh... Amazing! Ruwan is a great person who enjoys spending time with his guests, who quickly become his friends 😊 The host has a lot of knowledge and is very generous! At the end, he gave me some Ayurvedic oil because he saw that a some bug had bitten me... for free, of course... he didn't want to accept any money... WHAT A PLACE! WHAT A FAMILY! People - there's nothing to wait for! Apart from that - the room is beautiful, clean, the bathroom looks like a spa... and this view of the sun rising... We highly recommend it! 🙌

okay where do you start? Ruwan is an exceptional host, he is engaging and passionate. in the morning he offered to show us his land. Do not miss this opportunity you will learn so so much and there no hard sell at the end of it, actually he’s trying to sell you nothing, he just wants you to understand that his country is more than just the beaches. The room was spacious and lovely and has a genius floor arrangement in the bathroom. there’s a wonderful terrace with a stunning view and a large table at a height you can work at (important for us)…..and the WiFi is good. if you go, and you must go,your host may also cook you the most amazing dinner of fresh food from his land. well priced and would get a mitchellin star in a restaurant at home. there is a bus stop at the end of the road for busses to Dambulla and Kandy. all in all sorry we were only here for one night

Did find Pick me and Uber would not accept journeys. For short distances Ruwan able to arrange.

What a stay. Ruwan very attentive from booking and throughout which I was very thankful for. His beautiful family/ village make it even better. Initially booked 2 nights but turned into 4 as activities arranged from there and just so nice to chill with view and nature. Lovely meals (go hungry) and nice aesthetics.

Farm to table experience with the fine hosting by Ruwan and his family. Every day a fresh fruit juice from a fruit tree nearby. My food was picked fresh each day right from their own or a neighboring farm, and prepared to my spice level (zero) and the room was simply spectacular. I came for the view but left with new friends plus the deep peace I’d been longing for. Ruwan even walked me through his village and told me about its history and how they work together for the common good. It was truly an experience with real people in Sri Lanka I will never forget.

The place was just so beautiful. The view was very nice. The room with the big window and a very nice detailed bathroom. Wow. We really loved the very clean room, with all the small details. The host has a good eye for details, even his own logo in some of the woodenstuff. The bed was a dream and everything there was so new. We loved the sounds of the nature. Totally local. But still It was not far from Dambulla (cave temple). The host was so nice and friendly. We talked a lot, had fun and he was very helpful. The food was also delicious and typical Sri lankan. So we tasted a lot of different vegetables, some we did not knew before. And the best, everything was from his farm. So fresh, so yummie. It was one of our best homestays and we would go there again and again.
