I was pleasantly surprised by the size of the room. My bed was very spacious and confortable, and I made a few great friends who I continued to explore Sri Lanka with. The staff was very nice and they offer some cool cours you can sign up for Only downside is that flies/bugs can easily get in the showers. Mabye install a small net where the open air is? Otherwise, I was very happy :)

Such nice staff and the dorm was so nice with a modern bathroom. I went on the safari and it was sooo good, a great way to see elephants as well as meet new people from the hostel.

I fell in love with this hostel <3 Before staying there I thought hostels wouldn't be for me, but this hostel, this experience, changed my mind completely. Staff took good care of travellers and is super friendly and outgoing since they played boarding games with travellers in the evenings besides that they organized many adventures during the days. There were a sunrise and sunset hikes, elephant safari and lake swimming organized by the staff so you won't get bored while staying at this hostel. I highly recommend for solo travellers!

The bathroom for one of the dorms was a short walk away but this was not that big of an issue

Great hostel atmosphere and lovely staff who organised trips such as sunrise/sunset hikes ect. Very laid back atmosphere and great for those looking to be social. Mixed dorm was good and beds very comfy albeit a bit noisy

The door in the dorm was really really loud and woke me up quite a lot. For the rest nice and clean rooms.

Amazing place with a lot of different activities. They organise a lot of different things that you can just sign up to and show up. Also the staff were really nice, i got along with them really well.

The room was really humid but that can’t be helped due to the weather

Amazing staff who organised group activities, which made it so easy to make friends with the other travellers!!

Can be slightly disorganised, for instance my dorm had few working lockers and sometimes communication between the staff and also with guests (although they speak good English) could be clearer to avoid difficult situations. There could also be more toilets and hot showers to go around. The dogs can be a little territorial, but they are generally very used to guests.

Great hostel, I didn't stay at Roy's Villa but it seems this might have a similar atmosphere with half the price tag! The location is great although maybe up the slightly fancier end of the village, very close to all amenities and attractions though. The family who run it put huge effort into making everyone's stay the best it can be and offer reasonably priced tours for those who prefer a structured stay. Mostly very clean, the breakfast is massive and the common areas and gardens are a great place to relax.

Nothing. It’s a chill place in the heart of nature. Don't expect great comfort but experience the Sri Lankan adventure. All the people I’ve met were fully satisfied and we were all sad to say goodbye to each others.

The staff was very cool and helpful, always here to help and make the trip unforgettable. They bring us in deferent places for free with their Jeep, they arranged a safari trip, and even a boat trip dinner on a lake. Big up to LittleLittle
