Very good location, closhish to the entrance of the park :-) The owners cooked dinner for me. It was so tasty and cheap as well, one of the best sri lankan meals I had so far! They are very welcoming even though they struggle to speak english, they are lovely and will do anything to help you out 🙂

We stayed for two nights. The room was very spacious and clean. The hosts were friendly and welcoming, always ready to help us with anything we needed! They even gave us mangoes and coconuts picked from their garden, and both were absolutely delicious! We ended up going on a safari with them, which turned out to be the highlight of our time in Sri Lanka! It was a one-day safari where we saw two leopards, elephants, and many other animals. They also prepared lunch for us, which we enjoyed by the ocean. We had an amazing time. Their little puppy was so cute and lively—we absolutely adored him! We would gladly return in the future.
