This property has amazing views, so clean and beautiful. The best thing about this place though is the family, I will never forget how warm hearted they were and instantly felt like they cared for me. We chatted a lot, and we all ate together in the evenings, easily will be one of my most cherished memories in Sri Lanka. You have to stay here!! Kindest people ever.

From the moment we arrived, we were greeted not just as guests, but truly as friends. The warmth and hospitality of Sudesh’s family made this one of the most memorable stays of our trip. The food was absolutely delicious – all home-cooked meals prepared with love by the owner’s family, and every bite felt like a taste of authentic Sri Lankan home life. The guesthouse is located a little outside the busy town of Kandy, which turned out to be a big plus – peaceful, quiet, and surrounded by nature, making it a perfect retreat after a day of sightseeing. The rooms were clean and comfortable, and the entire atmosphere was relaxed and welcoming. We left with full hearts (and stomachs!), and we would return in a heartbeat. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a genuine and heartwarming stay in Kandy!

Beautiful, elevated location with a breathtaking view down on to the lake and the mountains. In the evening you can see a lit white Buddha statue and a temple, together with the lights of all the houses. Extremely clean. Very nice forniture and a comfortable big bed. The traditional Sri Lanka breakfast was large and delicious. The lady was extremely nice and even made a package with what I couldn’t eat from the breakfast and I could have a tasty takeaway snack on the train from Kandy to Ella. I loved everything!
