Housed in a building dating from 2023, this guest house is 21 km from Bundala Bird Sanctuary and 31 km from Situlpawwa.

The property is fairly new so all of the accommodations are modern. It also has a stand alone bungalow room, which I stayed in, which is like having one’s own little home! There is a beautiful pool on the property as well. The family that runs the property is great and will do everything they can to make your stay enjoyable.

At the villa complex, the units are fitted with bed linen and towels. The hotel staff is so nice and friendly, and they go out of your way to give you the most pleasant stay you could even imagine. When you book a villa, you get the whole villa for yourself, a nice bedroom with good wifi and television. The bathroom is very nice and clean. The villa is newly built, and a modern look. You get a private pool with an amazing view over the lake, with water buffalos, peacocks, birds, lizards and even crocodiles! At sunset, giant bats fly over the area and gives an amazing view (don't worry, they don't get close). The hotel had arranged a safari for us and it was great. When we came back in the morning the staff had amazing breakfast ready for us. And after that we enjoyed the day at our own pool. The staff later recommended that we took a boat tour at the lake, and it was really nice. The hotel had arranged a tuktuk for us, and the boat tour was so relaxing watching birds and crocodiles. After going off the boat, the tuktuk took us to see where all the giant bats 'hang out', which were in trees right next to the lake. The hotel can make you all kinds of food whenever you like. They can make both local food or international food. The Prices are fair, and the food is very good. The staff are really nice and kind people. They had our clothes laundered, and some of my clothes needed some sewing, and a member of the staff was so kind and offered to have his wife fix it for me within hours. We only stayed for two nights, but we wish we had stayed for much longer.

The room was clean and spacious with excellent air con. We enjoyed all meals there - lunch, dinner and breakfast -during our brief stay. They arranged an excellent Yala National Park tour for us at an extremely competitive price. Our driver Alim was fantastic and made every effort to ensure that we got the best value for our day. Unlike some drivers in the park, he did not rush but made sure we experienced the best day possible. As so many other have commented the host took us to the bus station and made sure we got the correct bus for our forward journey to Matara. This is a terrific place to stay and made all the better by a host who has his customer's interest at heart. Thank you - Peter and Merlinda Miles
