    Nothing

    Mrs. Wimala is the most amazing woman. She worked tirelessly to be as accommodating as possible. The perfect hostess.

    The beds weren't the comfiest.

    I liked the family who owned the place. Especially the elderly lady she was lovely. She might kill you with the amount of food she will try and give you for breakfast!!! Mosquito nets on the beds, great shower, a short walk from the beach and restaurants.

    You get what you expect for such a great place but mostly it was like coming home to my Sri Lankan Grandmother. Wimala is a delight, she will go the extra mile with everything to make a happy stay. It truly was like coming home to family and her cooking is amazing

    The house is located in a very green and quiet area, very close to the beach. The room we had was very clean and our host was lovely. This was one of the best places we stayed in our three weeks in Sri Lanka.

    Nothing to say here!

    Alone, the apartments are probably like many others that you can find in the area. However, it's the wonderful host 'Wimala' who makes this an exceptional place to stay. What a wonderful lady, she is so devoted to looking after her guests, she really will do anything for you! As for the many amazing reviews about the breakfast, I really cannot argue...a wonderful selection of fruits, noodles, spicy onion, toast, marmalade, samosa and more! Really cannot recommend Wimala BB enough! Thank you, Wimala! Ps .look out for chipmunks and mongoose from the balcony! Amazing to see!

    for that price and this host there is really nothing to say. More comfort is for another budget, it's as simple as that.

    Wimala is an amazing person, hosting, cleaning, cooking and warmly welcoming the guests by herself. She's got some good language skills and will astound you with kind gestures. The homestay is in the background of the fancy beach side resorts but only a 2 minute walk from the beach, quiet, surrounding garden. I only booked one night as a pitstop on the scooter between Negombo and Thalpe so I took the smallest room, which can be quite hot. Wimala brought me a remote fan to help with that. And oh, the breakfast was AMAZING!

    I enjoyed the peaceful and chill atmosphere. Also liked having breakfast on the terrace. I stayed in the big room upstairs which had a good working AC. The breakfast was enjoyable, i always choose sri lankan options. The Lady that runs the place is very friendly and helpful. My two nieces that stayed with me also really enjoyed staying here.

    Only one power supply in the room (I think you can ask for adapter, but we have no need, so I mention just for guests to take into consideration)

    The owner is a super polite lady, she really matters if you feel comfortable; gives fruits from her own garden which are really sweet, and food at all is delicious (big portions, and even asks if you want any more)

    It was very friendly and quiet place near from beautiful beach with very kind host who makes a great beakfast (a lot of fresh fruits and every day different food). The room was small but sufficient. The hosts picked up at the airport and during our stay, when we needed, they drove us in the tuk tuk somewhere. There was family atmosphere, we felt there like at home. I definitelly recommend this accomodation.
