We had the most wonderful stay here. The hosts are very special people, who welcome you with open arms into their family home. The room was very comfortable and we slept so deeply! The garden is an oasis, full of birds and the most beautiful blooms. Don't hesitate to book 🥰. Thank you again for your kindness!

Offering a garden and mountain view, The Grove is situated in Kandy, 10 km from Kandy Royal Botanic Gardens and 15 km from Kandy railway station.

We had two nights at the Grove and everything was perfect. We had the family room which was enormous with a beautiful shaded balcony overlooking the mountains. The breakfast was phenomenal- eggs and sausages, followed by platters of French toast and pancakes and finally a plate of fresh fruit. We ate their both evenings and the dinners were excellent. We especially loved the infinity pool which was perfect for a cool down and big enough to get a proper swim in after a hot walk or run.

Great value place with a truly magnificent view. Very friendly host who is eager to help. Simple, delicious meals available. Some good hiking possibilities in the area, but the paths can be hard to find.

Situated within 8.4 km of Kandy Royal Botanic Gardens and 13 km of Kandy railway station, Pretty Villa offers rooms with air conditioning and a private bathroom in Gelioya.

This property has amazing views, so clean and beautiful. The best thing about this place though is the family, I will never forget how warm hearted they were and instantly felt like they cared for me. We chatted a lot, and we all ate together in the evenings, easily will be one of my most cherished memories in Sri Lanka. You have to stay here!! Kindest people ever.

Set 31 km from Kandy railway station, 32 km from Bogambara Stadium and 32 km from Kandy City Center Shopping Mall, Kothmale Homestay features accommodation located in Mawatura.

Incredible experience with a family that wants to make sure you get everything you need and more. They served us a delicious dinner to our choice and a perfect Sri Lankan breakfast as well. As a bonus they took us to their land to show all the fruits/tea/herbs/seeds and roots they grow including explanation and answering all our questions. This is better than visiting a plantation open to public! In front of the hous you can even walk down to the almost drie river and climb the rocks and enjoy the brilliant view. For people driving the scenic route from Kandy to Nuwara Eliya this is THE spot to stay overnight.

    Easily one of the best homestays during our whole trip to Sri Lanka and definitely the best room. It was designed really uniquely and we loved it. Host is very friendly and helpful, also cooks good food in his restaurant! Easy to get to Ambuluwawa tower, and when we got back the most amazing breakfast was waiting for us.

    The rooms are nicely designed, clean and comfortable. No air con but the fan above the bed worked well. The owner, Dulip, is a lovely person and great host. Him and his wife were very friendly. The food is also tasty. Dulip arranged a tuk tuk tour of Ambuluwawa Tower which was perfect as we were the first ones at the top of the tower when the gates opened at 7:45am.

    An absolute gem of a homestay. The hosts were friendly and helpful, the room and the bathroom — spotlessly clean, the bed — comfy, dinner and breakfast that the lady owner cooked for me — filling and tasty. What more is there to ask for?

    The owner were very helpfull, they picked us from the busstation for free. It's possible to get tasty local food (breakfast, lunch & dinner). It's possible to fly the drone from the rooftop or doing Yoga. We would recommend the homestay.
