This was the place we enjoyed the most in our two months in Sri Lanka. Shas and his wife were amazing host. The place was very clean and tidy, there is a kitchen in case you would like to use it. The beach is one minute away walking and it was delightful to wake up and see the sunrise there. The garden is also very special, many spots to chill and birds to see. The breakfast was also great and the scooter for rent were very nice with a very reasonable price. We booked 3 nights and end up staying more than one week, we felt so comfortable there.

Everything was just perfect! Quiet place close to a nice beach with a very shallow water. One can walk at low tide to Nilaveli beach (15 min walk). Brenda was a perfect, talkative and helpful host as well as an excellent cook. One can refill bottles with a drinking water at the property. Nice well equipped huts with comfortable bed. 10 and 15 min by tuk tuk to Upuveli and Trinco, respectively. Surprisingly no mosquitoes (the first place without them during our 3 weeks travels in Sri Lanka). If you look for peaceful quite oasis this place is for you. Highly recommended!

Great location a very short walk to the beach, the room was spacious and big enough to easily unpack bags. The room was clean and good air-conditioning. The owner was very helpful with advice on the area and organised a scooter for us to explore the local area

The staff were so nice. We arrived at 6am, and they let us into our room straight away. They organised a transfer to our next destination cheaper than pick me and generally they couldn't do enough for us during our stay. Room was spacious and plenty of storage and is literally a 2 min walk from the beach.

The sweetest host, who cares deeply about the animals and the environment. With the money he gets he feeds more thank 20cats and 8 dogs he has at home and besides that more than 50 in the woods, that people throw there to die. He works and lives with sole purpuse he feeds and helps the animals. The most genuine, sweet and caring host we had. The location is also perfect, 5minute walk to the beach. The rooms are clean and comfortable, and although no breakfast is provided there is always an option to go to the next building to Mom’s kitchen, that is run by the hosts mother and they have excellent food (for breakfast, lunch or dinner).

    Our room was extremely comfortable and well air-conned. Our lovely host was extremely accommodating and kind throughout our stay. He brought us tea whenever we asked as well as helped us arrange a snorkelling trip. We also loved the cats! There were many cats to play with, all extremely friendly and adorable. We wish the host all the best with rescuing more cats and dogs.

    The host and his family are super friendly and helpful. They allowed us to check in earlier than expected and provided us with a lovely cup of coffee on arrival. We really got the feel of a home stay. The back of the property enters right onto the beach. The beach where the property is situated is private and private. Perfect for relaxation after busy days. We stayed for 3 nights and it was perfect for this length.
