    This is the best guesthouse me and my friends ever been to! Staying with Badra and her family was amazing, so kind hearted people. Very close to everything you need and nice accommodation surrounded by the nature. We felt very safe and taken care of. Would really recommend staying here if you’re going to Hiriketiya!

    Very cute place with a lovely family for a good price! Rooms are basic but everything you need with really big beds! It’s a bit outside of Hiriketija so it’s good if you have a scooter. The family is super lovely and caring as well. Price amazing! I came back already and I would come back again :) thank you!

    We loved staying here, the host was so friendly and nice! The bedroom and bathroom were a great size. The bedroom has a fan which was fine for us. The location isn’t a far walk to restaurants and shops, and about 15/20 minute walk to the beach

    The lady owner is so caring and loving. The room is spacious, there's a fan and a lovely outdoor bathroom. Laundry service is available. The location is a bit out of the center but in 10/15 minutes by walk you're by the beach and near all the restaurants, but I think she rents bikes and if you don't want to walk, it might be a good option. Beware there are many mosquitoes, bring a repellent with you.

    Beds were firm, mosquito net had holes in it, room could have been cleaner.

    Badra and her husband were very friendly and welcoming from the moment we arrived. She made us coffee and provided cake each morning without us even asking. She was very caring and we felt like we were cared as if we were her children. Really wonderful hosts. WiFi worked well, rooms were quiet, outdoor area for hanging wet clothes and chairs / table to sit on.

    Wonderful stay with the wonderful family ♥️ Badra was like a Cinnamon mama to me, so sweet and caring. Her husband Eddie and daughter Pancheli are very nice and kind people who make your stay feel like home. It is a very peaceful place where you wake up to the sounds of birds. The room is spacious and the outdoor bathroom is really amazing! Internet also works great. When I had an issue with my phone, they were extremely helpful and went above and beyond. I cant be more grateful for them 🙏 You can see beautiful plants and also some funky monkey in their garden 🌿🐒

    What can I say?  I booked 2 nights and stayed 10. I really had to force myself to leave this beautiful place. As soon as you enter the beautiful garden, you feel like home and feel this incredible energy. Badra and Edi are very charming people.  Everything they do comes deep from their heart.  Their guests are like family.  They help with onward travel, scooter rentals, surfing lessons...everything.  I had a little accident and they took very good care of me. Once, I mentioned that I love tomatoes, so i got tomato salad every night eversince. Facts: clean, spacious rooms, open air shower, very beautiful garden with hammock (monkeys, iguanas, squirrels, various birds and 3 lovely dogs) make this oasis of peace perfect.  Hiriketiya Beach 10 minutes walk, Dickwella 20 minutes. For small money you can have delicious dinner. Free tea and coffee inbetween. I am very grateful to have met this incredible people

    It was a pleasure to stay at this place. We spent one week here, this family is very nice and welcoming, I felt like at home. The beach is only 7-10 minutes walk where you can surf. And we could use the kitchen which was also nice
