    I had a great stay. The room is spacious, clean and quiet. There is a balcony to enjoy nature and reading. The internet is working well. The family is so helpful and always available. They organized the safari for me and brought me to a restaurant and the bus station. I can definitely recommend this place.

    Nothing. Everything was fine.

    V Cabanas is an absolute gem! The location is simply stunning—right on the edge of beautiful rice fields, creating a peaceful and picturesque atmosphere. Waking up to the serene view and sounds of nature is an unforgettable experience. The cleanliness of the rooms is outstanding—everything is spotless and well-maintained, making the stay incredibly comfortable. It’s clear that a lot of care goes into keeping the place in perfect condition. What truly makes V Cabanas special, though, is the wonderful family that runs it. They are incredibly kind, welcoming, and always ready to help with anything, from organizing transport to recommending local sights. Their hospitality makes you feel at home from the moment you arrive. If you're looking for a relaxing and authentic stay in a breathtaking setting, V Cabanas is the perfect choice.

    They can prepare dinner or lunch but only on demand, so you need to anticipate the request (in my case 1 day before was needed), they helped me reach a nice spot for dinner with their own car which was appreciated.

    Best stay I had in Sri Lanka, very clean and isolated room (even if being by the rice field no insects inside), comfortable bed, extremly nice family running the business. Views and surrondings are very nice. Room is silent at night and has good airconditioning. They can help you arrange transports in a good car by a fair price. Felt very safe for a woman travelling alone. They adapted breakfast for my dietary needs (gluten free)

    I have had an amazing stay at V Cabanas! The room was very spacious, clean and a great shower with hot water:) Also the view from the terrace over the rice fields was so good! The food was excellent, both breakfast and curry were one of the best I had in Sri Lanka! Lastly, the host family was just amazing. They welcomed me with some tea and were very helpful and kind surfing my stay. They took me to see the Fruit bats view point, lent me a bike, and dropped me at the busstation when I left. One of my best stays so far, so highly recommend!

    Stayed a couple of days and absolutely loved it, can't recommend highly enough. Big clean rooms, so peaceful and relaxing. Adhi and family were the perfect hosts, our 1 year old daughter especially loved them. Also arranged everything for the Safari. Easy walk into town. If they have space, stay here

    The property is a 10 minute walk from town. The staff are friendly. They drove us to the bus stop after our stay and made sure we got on the right bus. We got back from a Yala safari after checkout time so I was expecting to just grab our bags and go but they held off cleaning the bathroom in our room so that we could shower and use it after the safari if we needed. The room was big with AC and a mosquito net.
