An excellent house with all the necessary amenities. The house has two separate rooms, each equipped with an air conditioner. Additionally, there are two fans available if you need them in the middle room or the kitchen. The house is very basic, but for this price, you get air conditioners and excellent hot water. And with such a wonderful owner, the experience is incredibly pleasant. Around 15-20min by foot from Polhena beach.

Probably the best value for money in SK town. The villa is quite spacious and has a lot of light. We enjoyed the breakfast on the porch/ terrace in the morning and the very short walk to the beach. I highly recommend staying here!

We had a lovely stay at this beautiful and comfortable property hosted by Gayashan and his family. It’s a short walking distance to the beach, shops, and great local restaurants - everything you need is close by. The house was spacious for two, with a big comfy bed, well-working AC, a large bathroom, and a nice shaded front porch to relax. The setting is surrounded by nature, with monkeys passing through the trees and peacocks living next door - which we found really lovely! Gayashan was incredibly welcoming and lives right next door, so he’s always around if you need anything. The WiFi works fine for browsing, but was a bit unstable at times - we ended up using mobile data for calls and streaming without any issue.

Absolutely amazing property, and I can confidently say it was one of the best vacation experiences I’ve ever had.

The location was breathtaking, with stunning views and a serene atmosphere that made it feel like a hidden paradise.
