Janaka's House

The host and his family are just wonderful! They will make you feel at home and will do anything to make your stay the best you can wish for. The room we had was very clean with comfortable beds and a hot(!!) shower. Lovely place next to the beach!

The family is so sweet and helpful, they will do anything to make you happy

The highlight of staying here is the family. Danuli, the daughter, is totally delightful. Janaka's wife, Rangeline is all smiles. Janaka himself strives to make your stay perfect. It is a warm welcome & friendliness throughout the whole stay. Add in the dog, Kobe, who is totally adorable. Make sure you walk all the way to the end, to Pehembiya Beach for the least waves and best swim, and then back to Turtle Point for a beautiful sunset. Delicious food, clean rooms, and my room had 2 balconies and plenty of space. A thoroughly enjoyable stay.

A shared bathroom, BUT, only with 1 other room, and don't let this deter you from staying there. I only mention it so people are aware the bathroom is outside of the room.

They declined my booking and rejected me for being a local Sri Lankan, furious racist! Must avoid at all costs to turn things around. If ever, the owner decided to reject locals for the reason that he has had a bad experience with some locals, which i do not disagree as some still are not up the accepted levels of orderly dicsiplined behaviour, then he should explicitly mention in the site to let the booking.com users to be aware far in advance, so that we locals will not get surprices after coming all the way to their doorstep to be rejected.

The rooms were great, very clean. the breakfast was delicious and the host was extremely friendly and helpful. Location was good, just a short walk to the beach.

Janaka's House gives you a truly local experience that's making your stay very special. The family is super friendly and they help you in everything you need from transportation to local tips. The breakfast is the best I had so far, tasty, filling and every day a little bit different. The turtle beach is only 3 mins walk from the house which I really loved. They also serve delicious home cooked dinner or lunch upon request for a reasonable price.

Janaka and his family are lovely and really helpful. Great location, extra clean, really comfortable and huge breakfast. They also offer delicious dinner for a reasonable price. 100% recommended.

my staying was amazing here! the family who own the house are amazing and kind people. you will be welcome here more than in some very expensive hotels. every morning different breakfast, you could try here the best dishes from local food with the best taste and quality. the owner will provide you with any assistance you need and help you. the room is very clean and nice. you will feel here like a member of a family. I am sincerely advise you to stay here to feel the most hospitality in Sri Lanka)
