It's a nice place with friendly people. They do their best to give you a comfy and home feeling. I'm the second guest, so they are still in the try-out period. And they do it well! The owner brought me to a place for the breakfast and he brought me to the busstation. It's allowed to use the kitchen. Enough equipement. A good big bed. Everywhere it is super clean! The vieuw from the house is great, ocean vieuw. Its a short walk to 2 beaches, 1 even in a few minutes.

Located in Devinuwara and only less than 1 km from Wellamadama Surfing Beach, Villa Yuvin provides accommodation with sea views, free WiFi and free private parking. With garden views, this accommodation offers a patio. Featuring a private entrance, the guest house allows guests to maintain their privacy.

It all depends on what you’re looking for, but I had a very nice stay here. The room was spacious and immaculately clean, as was the bathroom. The owner is one of the nicest people I've met; the beach isn't touristy and more of a fishing village area, but it's so authentic! The location is also excellent, with a 10-minute walk to the lighthouse and the city center or temple.

It is situated 2.1 km from Wellamadama Surfing Beach and provides a housekeeping service. The guest house features rooms with air conditioning, free private parking and free WiFi.

From my point of view, for families with children, if they don't have their own means of transport, transportation anywhere is a bit more complicated, but tuk tuk will take you wherever you want for an affordable price. For other tourists, traveling and transportation is very easy. you can spend time by the pool, which is located in the villa. You can eat and order drinks right in the villa. The staff is very helpful, the food is tasty and the surroundings are nice.

Because we love this place so much we returned for 3 more nights after our yoga-retreat. Immediately we felt like home again. The room has everything we need and is always very clean. The hospitality and awareness of this family is just incredible. Anu remembered our favourite dishes and every day we got a different one for dinner. Same with the breakfast. At the end they even got up in the middle of the night to give us a warm goodbye and a breakfast-parcel that we didn‘t stay hungry at the airport.
