This was a 10/10 experience, and I can only recommend staying here! The host was the nicest ever, and the whole family made us fell at home all the time! They cooked dinner for us so we could try traditional food! Stay here if you want to be safe, comfortable and experience the culture

Ansich sehr schöne Unterkunft, wenn man das richtige Zimmer bekommt. Ein Bett knarzt ziemlich laut, das andere war in Ordnung. Leider habe ich seit dieser Unterkunft kleine Ameisen in meinem Rucksack, in dem nie offenes Essen war. Preis Leistung ist aber top.

Great stay at kind and love guesthouse, we were greeted by the hosts when we arrived and they were on hand if needed. The room was just as described, comfortable, private ensuite and the aircon was a great help to us settling into Sri Lankan heat. If we chosen to we could have had breakfast for a very good price. Thank you Kind and love!

Nice hostel! We stayed for 3 nights in a double room with ac, it was very clean except for a lot of tiny ants which were running around the room. The owners are very sweet and helpful and zhe breakfast was very good :-)

Great value for money. The only issue was the heat of the room at night but for the price this is what to expect. Staff were amazing and super helpful :)

Lovely location real close to the main strip. Plenty of food, bars and shops. The beaches are great. Short but still lovely. Turtles come regularly, they are included by feeding but it’s nice to stand in the water and have a look at them eating sea weed. During our stay we seemed to have been put in the neighbours home. Not quite what we were expecting and didn’t match the photos at all. Although the couple whose home it was were lovely. The room was very nice and clean, so was the bathr...

I was travelling alone and felt super save there. Its a 5 minutes walk from the beach away. It was super clean. But its more a guesthouse than a hostel, if u want to connect to many young people then its not the right place.

I highly reccomed this house because of its kind family members and very nice guests like lovely elderly german ladies and backpackers all over the world. It‘s a good mix. I didn’t see the dorm room but the single room is great!! Big Bed, two ventilators, A/C power international, lockable box. The fater and family are very friendly and so helpfull!!! Feels like coming home ☺️
