Guest Reviews

• Charlie (8/5): Hébergement au calme à Kandy - Hébergement avec très belle vue sur les montagnes. Hôtes très gentils et serviables. Climatisation et eau chaude. Chambre très spacieuse avec grand lit. Localisation assez éloignée de la ville (mais permet d’être au calme).
• Mohammed (10/5): The entire family is really kind and generous , they take good care of the guests and the property . This place is surro - Everything was more than excellent. It’s really spacious place, neat and clean with a balcony and as well additional terrace and the view from here is splendid. Close from the city center, it’s very calm and peaceful place, no noise at all. Initially we booked this place for 3 nights but later went on extending it for more 4 nights. Nothing
• Nathalie (6/5): Une fois aérée, et prise en main la chambre peut devenir confortable et agréable. - Nous avons apprécié la gentillesse de la famille, la vue, la taille de la chambre, le calme alentour et la qualité de la connection internet. Nous n’avons pas aimé le manque d’aération à notre arrivée de la chambre en général et de la salle de bain en particulier. Nous n’avons pas aimé les plantes intérieures qui manquaient d’attention et d’eau. Nous avons trouvé étrange la pièce dite partie commune par laquelle il faut passer pour accéder à la chambre. Pièce qui elle non plus n’avait pas été aéré avant notre arrivée.
• Georgia (8/5): - Very friendly family. Gorgeous views and very clean Location is a fair way from kandy centre especially to walk
• Matias (10/5): Traumhafter Blick und super ruhig :) - Idillische Lage am Berg, ein bisschen außerhalb von Kandy. Super ruhig. Wunderschöner Blick. Wir hatten das deluxe Zimmer mit Balkon, riesen Zimmer und Bett, einfach nur traumhaft, jeden Tag da aufzustehen. Die Familie ist super lieb und hilfsbereit :) Alles war super. Die tuk tuks wollen manchmal nicht so weit fahren oder verlangen viel zu viel Geld, aber mit der "Pick Me" App und ein bisschen Geduld, hats immer funktioniert.
• Boudewijn (9/5): Enorme gastvrijheid - Geweldig verblijf met enorm gastvrije mensen, uitzicht 10/10. Per ongeluk de verkeerde datum geboekt maar was gelukkig geen probleem. Hartelijk ontvangst, goede tips voor Kandy, enorm lekker ontbijt en zelfs nog even thee voor ons vroege vertrek. Bedankt voor de goede zorgen!
• Aurélien (10/5): Beautiful homestay in Kandy - Cielo Residence is a lovely and authentic homestay run by one of the nicest Sri Lankans we have met during our trip. The place is very peaceful and quiet, yet still very close to Kandy Lake and the Temple of the Tooth. The bedroom is very spacious, with a balcony offering a beautiful view. It is the best place we have stayed so far in Sri Lanka. For breakfast, you can choose between an English or a Sri Lankan breakfast. We tried the Sri Lankan one: it was delicious, generous, and not too spicy. Thank you very much for your warm welcome. We wish you all the best! Nothing
• Tony (9/5): -
• Neha (8/5): - Size of the room, view from the room, cleanliness No drinking water facility
• Dana (10/5): - The accommodation is very nice, located in the mountain, with a great view and it’s very quite too. The family who runs the place is so lovely and kind. We really enjoyed our stay there.
• Guest (8/5): Buena habitacion, pero muy alejada - Las vistas y el gran tamaño de la habitación Las goteras por lluvia y la carretera para llegar hasta ahí arriba
• Hwanyeong (9/5): 그냥 - 시설 위치 청결도 호스트분들에 배려. 등등 너무 감사했어요 호스트분들 더 행복해지길
• Tajna (10/5): The hosts were very polite and helpful. - I had the best view ever. Literally, I’ve never had a room with a better view.
• Karol (7/5): Ogólnie miejsce warte polecenia z racji na piękny widok i domowy, uprzejmy klimat! Gospodarze bar do o mili, uśmiechnięc - -lokalizacja (widoki) -czystość miejsca -cisza -uprzejmość -brak połączenia WiFi po 23:00 -dość drogie śniadanie w stosunku, co do jakości -utrudniony kontakt po angielsku -dość chłodna woda jak na grzałkę którą tam jest
• Zachary (10/5): Cielo residence is a lovely place to stay in Kandy - The Cielo Residence is a lovely place to stay in Kandy. Our room was very spacious, clean and very comfortable. We also had our own fridge and kettle which was nice. Our hosts were extremely accommodating and welcoming and they offer lovely breakfasts. Kandy is a lively city so it was really nice to come back to a quiet apartment with a nice roof terrace to enjoy our evenings. The location of Cielo residence is a bit higher up on the hill from the city so it was very peaceful but means you will probably be getting tuktuk too and from the accommodation (but these are usually cheap and easy to get).
• Hayley (10/5): Lovely hosts and rooms - We had a lovely stay! The room was huge and had everything you could need. The hosts were so so kind and thoughtful and went out of their way to ensure we had a perfect stay. A delicious breakfast too. Everything perfect!
• Sophia (10/5): Perfect stay with amazing views! - Perfect stay in Kandy. Accommodation clean and tidy with comfortable bed. Friendly hosts always happy to assist you. Amazing views over Kandy. Highly recommend you come and stay! Thanks again :)
• Ashleigh (10/5): - Absolutely incredible place. I wanted to stay longer but it was unavailable - book ahead!! The view and the spaciousness of the room felt like my own little world away from the world, while the location was superb and I walked into town happily as well. Very kind hosts to top it off.
• Denise (9/5): Super verblijf! - De eigenaren zijn echt heel erg aardig. De kamer is heel ruim, schoon en heeft fantastische wifi verbinding. Het ontbijt was uitgebreid en erg lekker. De accommodatie is een beetje afgelegen van het centrum, maar via een tuktuk goed te bereiken.
• Marina (10/5): - Familia encantadora, lugar donde tienes independencia y unas vistas impresionantes. La habitación muy cómoda.
• Saheen (8/5): Great , will come again - Owner is good behavior Value for money
• Tamer (10/5): I liked this place - every thing was good , room , breakfast and view of the mountain, and the place make you feel warm as if your home with your family, all thanks and luck to them . the place is a little far from the city center
• Elena (10/5): Exceptional - Probably the best equipped and most beautiful room we had in Sri Lanka. The family is super friendly and helps with everything. The wiev is amazing.
• Naushad (10/5): Exceptional - Everything was perfect from the room to the location was exceptional + the owners are always there to help you with a big smile Nothing
• Alexander (10/5): Best place in Kandy! - I had a wonderful time at Cielo Residence. The room is very spacious and clean. The amazing view from the room and balcony gives a beautiful overview over the city of Kandy. The residence is located outside the city centre (20 minute walk or $1 tuktuk) on the hillside in a beautiful calm neighborhood. The breakfast is excellent with a local or western option. The host family is incredibly kind and caring. They are always willing and offering to help you with everything you need. Not a thing
• Antony (9/5): Great place to enjoy views across Kandy’s green hills - The room is modern, newly decorated, and is very spacious. There is an accessible balcony with which to take in the green hills of Kandy. The family running this accomodation are very kind and helpful, and produced an amazing Sri Lankan breakfast, which was quite a spread. Great place. Nothing.
• Awais (8/5): Very good - Good place but they need to take care of ants problem. Too many of them there. Very sweet and nice people. Location is not good if you want to go in city. But if you need peaceful stay it is best
• Shannon (10/5): Peaceful stay with amazing view near Kandy - We had a lovely stay at Cielo Residence whilst visiting Kandy. The location is a 5-10 min tuk tuk out of town, you can use PickMe so it's easy. The host family were very kind, greeting us with juices and helping with our bags. Throughout our stay they were always helpful and provided a delicious breakfast upon request. The room was very spacious with a comfy bed, seating area and balcony. Plus, the kettle and mini fridge were handy to have in the room. Would highly recommend! Nothing
• Núñez (10/5): Exceptional - Hospitality!!! The family was lovely and they even accepted us to an earlier check in.breakfast was amazing and the room was massive with great views
• Jessica (10/5): Exceptional -
• Maja (10/5): Exceptional - We had a pleasant stay. Everything was clean, and the owners were very friendly and helpful. The breakfast was also very good.
• Max (10/5): Exceptional - We can highly recommend the residence with the clean rooms, the epicview, the AC and the loving hospitality of the family who always look after our well-being. They also recommended us a great guide for Kandy/Sigiriya & Safari! PS even though it's not right in the city center you can easily take a Tuktuk to town (5 min ride)
• Sofia (10/5): Exceptional - Best guest-house we had in Sri-lanka!🤩 Huge open apartment just for ourselves, 100% privacy, modern and new, clean, big comfortable bed with the best views. Shower had hot water and was spacious. Owners were super helpful, polite and kind. They also gave us delicious watermellon juice and warm welcome 😌 highly highly recommend! The centre is about 20 min walk from there, down we went by walking, up we took tuktuk with no problem.
• Lukas (10/5): Felt extremely welcomed and on top of this world in Kandy - Felt like sleeping over clouds. Beautiful, huge room with amazing amazing view and all necessary amenities (including. A small fridge). The family hosting was incredibly sweet and their watermelon juice is out of this world! Parking on the property with a tuktuk was also possibly 11/10 - would stay again without hesitation. Nothing
• Aleksey (10/5): Просто великолепно❤️ - Just the perfect place!! The hosts are very hospitable and helpful. We helped with all the questions. They even provided medical assistance)) It's a pity that I didn't learn how to stay for a few more days. We will definitely come back here!) Thank you so much❤️❤️🙏
• Eduard (10/5): Best days in Sri Lanka so far - The best people we have met so far in Sri Lanka. It really felt like being part of their family for a couple of days. We have been served wonderful breakfast and they helped us arranging everything. The room is spacious and it offers an incredible view. We definitely recommend staying there as it gives you an authentic insight into Sri Lankan life
• Reindl (10/5): The accommodation was absolutely great and the family that hosted us was very kind. I highly recommend it to everyone! -
• Cassandra (10/5): Comfortable room, lovely welcoming family and the best breakfast in Sri Lanka - The room is large with a big comfortable bed and private terrace with mountain views. The family were lovely, very attentive, friendly and welcoming. The home cooked breakfast was amazing. The best in Sri Lanka! It was a little hard to find for taxis and tuk tuk drivers but that wasn’t really a problem. Make sure you have the address and phone number handy so taxis can call for directions :-)
• Adam (10/5): Big room and very friendly hosts in the hills above Kandy - I only stayed here one night, but the family were incredibly friendly and helpful. I was exhausted when I arrived and they ended up driving me into town and taking me out for some food. The room is huge, with a nice balcony, and was quite luxurious compared to other guesthouses I stayed in in Sri Lanka. It's only a 10-minute drive from Kandy city centre, but the location can be a bit tricky to find for some drivers.
• Gabrielle (10/5): Exceptional - I had the most incredible stay here, and it’s honestly an experience I’ll never forget! The family was incredibly kind and went above and beyond to make sure I had everything I needed (and more!). Their warmth and hospitality truly made this stay one of the best I’ve ever had. The place itself was spotless, very spacious, and had a marvellous view of Kandy that left me in awe every days. It’s also wonderfully quiet, perfect for relaxing after a day of exploring. The breakfast was absolutely delicious, and enjoying it with such a breathtaking view was just the cherry on top. Every detail was taken care of with so much thoughtfulness, and I felt so welcomed throughout my stay. If you’re considering staying here, don’t hesitate—it’s an experience you’ll treasure. I couldn’t recommend it more highly! Maybe it is a bit far from the center (by walk) if you want an evening stroll but this is a very peaceful area, with an amazing view!
• Haruko (9/5): Superb - Very heartwarming family. All the family helped me as much as they could. The breakfast was gorgeous. Thank you so much!!
• Kulbhushan (10/5): Excellent room and wonderful host. - The Hosts of the Property were very humble, I got there at night, but the whole family was waiting for me to arrive as soon as I arrived they welcomed me with a beautiful drink, I loved that. They arranged a diner for me at home that night. Next morning my tuk tuk was not coming in time and was unsure about the places, so they said we don't want to risk our guest therefore they drived me to the city centre without any charges and picked me on the same day. next morning I had train to colombo they again were very humble to volunteers drop me at station worth mentioning again without any charges. They literally touched me with the care and support they provided to me during my stay. I would very very strongly recommend this property for your stay at Kandy.
• Pasan (10/5): Amazing - Host family is very friendly and they treated us nicely and made us feel safe during our stay.
• David (10/5): Exceptional - Lovely large room , which was immaculate, the room has a fridge and microwave. Views are incredible, home is in a quite area but only 5 minutes from centre (250 rupees in tuk tuk). We added breakfast, which was excellent. The host family is very friendly , very helpful and and gave us help with restaurant recommendations. Would recommend 10/10.
• Tamara (9/5): Amazing room and amazing hosts. Definitely can recommend! - The room is spacious, clean and cosy with a comfy bed, kitchen counter with a mini fridge, a seating area, bathroom and balcony. Plus, the view over the city is so beautiful. It's located in a calm and quiet neighborhood and still close to the city center. The breakfast offered with a surcharge was plenty and delicious. The hosts are very welcoming and we always felt well taken care of ❤️
• Carla (10/5): Warm welcome and great room - We were welcomed warmly by Pramodya and her parents. The room is huge and spotless and even has a mini bar, a kettle and warm water. The view from the room is stunning and the bed is absolutely the most comfortable we have had so far! Breakfast is bot included but we recommend you have it here. We could not finish it all and they offered us to pack it ad a lunch box. They are the most warm and attentive family ever, just lovely to stay here!
• Cleverest (10/5): The venue is great in terms of SriLanka accommodation offer. - The host family is really welcoming.
