Happy Man Village

The attractive cabins are located in a beautifully landscaped garden. The rooms were spacious and clean with both air-conditioning and a ceiling fan. There are plenty of power points throughout the room and bathroom. The bathroom was open air which was attractive. However, watch out for mosquitoes, especially in the morning. The pool was clean and large.. The owner and the staff were very friendly and accommodating of our requests. We had daily dinners which were very tasty and of substantial quantities, as were the breakfasts included in the room tariff.. Bottled water was supplied. Highly recommended.

Nothing to mention.

Happy Man Village is the best place to enjoy the real Sri Lankan experience. In this family run structure is possible to enjoy amazing meals made of fresh products from their lands, simple cooked and delicious. The staff is going to propose several activities to do in the area, in this way there is no need to settle anything since everything will be managed from them simplyfing our life. We really enjoyed the catamaran safari and the boat trip in the river close to the village. But the best thing is the attention from the staff to the guests, always smiling and being available to any possible requests. A special mention needs to be done to the young Baba he was always available and ready to help, bringing us small treats like smoothies and cocount, at any time of the day and showing us nice landscapes spots, along with the cinnamon and wild plants and animals in the surroundings of the village. Located in the middle of Kosgoda village, here we found the most authentic feelings.

Almost everything! The whole family made our stay incredible, felt a bit like being around your own family. -Food is healthy and home cooked every single day, breakfast is amazing. There’s too much option to choose from. Baba, our day to day server, even jumped up to climb trees to get us some fresh coconuts. -Room is immaculate, you won’t find any dust and they clean everyday. It’s a nice feeling coming home from a day trip. We found almost no mosquitoes or insects at all. -Shower, it can be really hot shower above 8 o’clock in the morning, try to take your shower early. We enjoyed our outdoor shower, birds chirping and the river behind the property makes it really sound idyllic. -Location, it’s a bit in the middle of nowhere (which we enjoy), but you can easily access the road and the beach within 10 mins, and they provide tuk tuk (or car) to transfer to the nearest beach which is handy. - Staff! Shout out to Roshana, Baba, and Ishuru to name a few! Amazing people and very good at they do. The family provides recommendations for trips all around the country. They literary took us everyone, which we found super convenient and well priced. Overall, we were super impressed by this little gem!

Nothing really, we absolutely enjoyed it. If we do need to mention one little thing, it would be the swimming pool area - it could use a bit extra attention, but overall well enough for our son to swim and play.

Beautiful family, very welcoming and very helpful. Drove me to the beach and went above and beyond for me. Dinner was incredible, only 3,000 rupees! Breakfast also lovely with a good pot of tea. Arranged a catamaran trip too which was super cheap and a nice thing to do. Room was great. No bug issues. Nothing extravagant definitely better than expected. Pool is also lovely.

I loved all of it. Really good value for money. Would have been nice to pay in a different way than cash but apart from that, no problems.

If you are looking for a peaceful, restful place Happy Man Village is a great choice. This is really beautiful and very well maintained property in the calm village of Kosgoda. Both the owner and staff frequently went the extra mile while we were there and were really helpful to my husband and I and supported us with options to relax and enjoy our 2 day stay. This calm, tranquil oasis is a short walk from the beach and Happy Man Village also have connections with nearby beach restaurants that offer a unique relaxing experience if you’re in need of a quick recharge and to get some sunshine in your bones! We had a lovely ayurvedic massage which we booked with the owners. Make sure you tell them about your needs, they have many options that cater for both groups and couples. This was such a great experience after a long flight from the UK! A big thanks to the owner Sulalitha, Suni and Ranga our transfer drivers (Ranga also took us to Galle on the way to the next point in our journey, Baba who was simply amazing with his attentive service with mealtimes and arrangements, Babi whose home cooking was simply outstanding! Thank you for making our stay truly memorable and enjoyable! We had an amazing time, nothing was a problem and the food was delicious! Thank you Happy Man Village! You are truly a happy place!
