    There is no air conditioner, but there is a ceiling fan that helps keep the room cool to some extent. They also provided a hairdryer upon request, which was very convenient.

    I really liked the place and the room :) the room has a mosquito net and a fan as well as an own bathroom! The beach is super close. The real highlight of the place is the family living there who gives you advices and helps you with everything as well as their little daughter!

    Nothing, everything was what we needed.

    Villa was easy to find, the owner was there to welcome us and help us settle in (and book a car for the airport as we had a very early start), location is just 5 mins from the beach, room was comfortable and we slept well. The owner got up at 5am to see us off, which was very kind!

    Very easy to go by Tuk Tuk from airport. The best thing was family’s kindness. They take care of us a lot during our stay. The owner arranged car for following two days! It is cheaper than pick me up! We could travel smoothly around Sri Lanka.

    Brilliant kind family. I was unwell during my stay after 48 hours of travel. The host took me to a local doctor, where I got some meds. I was able to extend my stay and they looked after me whilst I recovered. The breakfast and dinner were great. Highly recommend.

    We stayed in the villa from May 4 till May 11,2024. The staff were very good and they felt that we are in the home. I went with my mom,dad, sister and my brother. The house owner was such a welcoming lady. They have full fill our all request although it was not in part of the package. If you want to stay in Negambo its a write place for you.

    Lovely hosts and lovely family. I spent one day with my friend, and we felt really welcome. The place is quite and very well located, 5 minutes from the beach and restaurants. It has Air conditioner. They are so kind doing the best for the client, I felt they have this very good heart that you remember later. We had also the chance to taste their food and fish! and they are very good cookers! I would recommend to anyone. Thank you!

    Hosts were so kind and they go above and beyond to make sure you are happy with your stay. The room was clean and tidy. The mosquito net was really useful. We could sleep windows open only because of the net. The location is perfect if you want to stay away from busy roads and the crowds and yet it’s well connected, just few minutes walk from shops and plenty of restaurants. . They even offered us coffee, refreshments for no extra charges. Lovely family with a lovely property. Definitely recommend.

    It was very simple. It would have been nice to have some toilet roll provided.

    That I had to leave :)

    What an amazing homestay and the owners are the best! A very kind and friendly family, always go beyond expectations. I stayed here twice for over a week. The rooms are very clean, huge, and quiet. There is also aircon which is rare for Sri Lanka. There are outdoor spaces to sit and relax too. You can order very delicious local breakfast and dinner. So much tastier than the food outside in the expensive restaurants. It’s about 5 mins walk to the beach and there are supermarkets nearby. The train station is just a few mins tuk tuk drive away and there is easy access to/from the airport. The family was very kind to store one of my bags for nearly 3 months so i didn’t have to drag it around the whole island.

    Look no further if you are looking for a place to stay in Negombo! The family who owns the homestay are the nicest people I’ve met in Sri Lanka! They even welcomed me with fresh juice, and at times surprised me with nice breakfast and dinner. The rooms are spacious, very clean and very quiet, the bathroom is modern, there is also hot shower although you don’t really need. There is also outside seating area. You can prepare hot water as well in the kitchen. The location is also great! There is a small supermarket at the end of the road if you are in need of anything. A quiet section of the beach is about 5 mins walk and plenty of restaurants on the main road and a bigger supermarket which are 3 mins walk away. I stayed here 7 nights and I wish I could stay longer. But I will be back for a day or two at least before I leave Sri Lanka.
