"Geweldig"

Fijne kamer met lekker schoon en heerlijke bedden. Zeer vriendelijk personeel

Bij aankomst verbouwing werkzaamheden. Gelukkig was het maar 1dag. En geen openbaar toilet in de lobby

"We were very happy with the choice."

8.0

The location was excellent. It was a small. charming guesthouse type place converted from an old colonial house. No restaurant but a nice breakfast. The rooms were nice and bathrooms big. The staff were able to arrange a driver to take us to Negombo at a reasonable price and a tuk tuk to Turtle Beach.

Many of the staff had limited English. We tried to change a 5,000 rupee note for a tuk tuk driver but there was no cash box/cashier facility.

"A Bastion of Relaxation"

10.0

We loved the location near Flag Rock Bastion and the lighthouse. It was a calm neighborhood. It's very quiet, no noise, not even from the AC unit outside. You can do yoga on the first-floor sitting area. The breakfast was copious. The entire property was super clean. The staff was super friendly and did their best to fulfill our requests. Mr Fayas was particularly helpful and friendly. We were very pleased that this guesthouse was built in a historic building.

This nine-room guest house is just 3 years old, as of 2026 Januar, so it is still working out minor issues. It is already close to perfection. Our room would have been more comfortable with a 2nd chair and a suitcase stand/table.
