Lake Island Home Stay

We loved our stay here. The room is big and spacious. The best thing is the terrace just outside the room, where you can enjoy your meals next to the garden while observing all the birds and other animals living there. Rasika and her family are lovely and very attentive.

I had a wonderful stay at Lake Island Homestay in Dambulla. I arrived at night and had the best sleep in a calm and peaceful environment . The hospitality was exceptional—the hosts were incredibly friendly and welcoming One of the highlights of my stay was the delicious Sri Lankan breakfast, which was freshly prepared . In the morning, I took a walk by the beautiful lake nearby, which was a truly refreshing experience. There’s also a charming temple at the corner of the lake adding to the serene atmosphere. The facilities were great for the price , and everything was well-maintained. Overall, my experience was perfect, and I highly recommend this homestay to anyone visiting Dambulla. I would definitely stay here again!♥️♥️

Nothing everything was so good.

+ Very friendly family + nice local breakfast + comfy bed

- when we tried to turn on the shower heater, the shower light tripped! Both in my room and my parents room next to mine. I had to call and message the home owner for assistance because my mother was showering in cold water in the dark (so did I)! Good thing is, they did respond pretty fast and came to try and help us asap. Which we really appreciated! - I understand it is a home stay, but, it would be really helpful to try to find ways to keep out creatures in the toilets. There were frogs and snails in the toilets. - The WiFi was not good, sadly. - The floor was not very clean.

Everything is wonderful

A quiet and green nature place in the middle of garden with lots of Squirrel and kinds of birds. Staff were awesome and I enjoyed.

This was the best stay we had in Sri Lanka! Rasika and her family were so lovely and always there to help if we needed anything. The breakfast was different every morning but always delicious, and the same goes for dinner! The room and shower was clean, spacious and comfortable with a good bug net and air con. The seating area was so peaceful overlooking their beautiful garden and a perfect place to relax and enjoy the food.

Nothing not to like! It was perfect.

One of the best homestay experiences we had during our Sri Lanka trip. We totally recommend Lake Island Home Stay to put on your bucket list. The hosts are such lovely, welcoming and heartwarming people and took care of everything we needed above and beyond! Breakfast, lunch, teatimes and dinner were always delicious and made with love. For our morning safari (6:30 am pickup) Rassika even made us a sandwich package :) The room is super spacious, functional and very clean. The shower has warm water and really good water pressure. The vegetation of that place is just a beautiful scenery with colorful flowers and little birds singing in the morning and you can see some small bats in the evening from your little terrace. There is also a little lake around the corner where you can take a walk and cool off with a swim. We also booked a safari jeep tour, which was owned by Rassikas brother. You should definitely do this experience during your stay! The price is absolutely fine (25.000 LKR, no overcharge, hidden fees or sth.). We saw loads of elephants (even the little ones with their families) birds, peacocks and more. Just a wholesome amazing experience. So yeah what else to say as ENJOY YOUR STAY … I bet you definitely will 🥰

The place is in a village with nice walk to the main road. The Family that runs the place was very helpful and sweet. Breakfast was big and good.

Host was very kind, fresh and tasty breakfast. Optional dinner (very good) for additional cost - recommended. Laundry service available (with fee). Nice surrounding. Great value for money. Host can provide you transport if you ask.

There was no AC, only fan.
