    Nothing.

    Nice quest house in a quiet location. The bed is with a mosquito net so you can leave your window open overnight. Free water + fridge. Little kitchen with plates and cutlery. You can sit in the little garden under the trees. Close to the harbour where you can watch the sunset. Good value for money. Nearby is a good restaurant called Elite, huge portions for a good price.

    It's a little bit outside the city centre. The Bathroom and also the Room itself could be cleaner. 5000 Rps is OK, but not that cheap.

    It's a nice and calm place, which has a huge garden to walk. You can even rent bikes there for free to get to the city centre. The kitchen is super good equipped and clean, which was wonderful. The host was super friendly and welcoming to us and helped where he could. The bus stops from Kurunegala, and Puttalam is super close. Moskito nets are there! The family room is big enough for 3 person.

    has a lot of potential but needs a bit of refurbishment! perhaps it was just the room we stayed in!

    A last minute booking stopping off on way to Wilpattu national park. The owners were really lovely and the surrounding garden is beautiful!! offered us tea and coffee in the morning before leaving

    Bathroom was a bit old. Overall it is not the newest building. The blanket was a sheepwool blanket that looked rather old. One guy that worked at the resort kind of persisted to sell us a safari trip, even tough we already said that we booked one at our next stay.

    Big garden where we saw wild peacocks. Dinner and Breakfast can be ordered at the Resort.

    On arriving we checked into our room & I was taken away by the smell of 20 moth balls which had been left all around the room (these are very toxic to health) during our 1 night stay I suffered with a very bad headache, not sure if these had brought it on or not, this is the reason we stayed for 1 night instead of 2. I immediately collected the mothballs up & put them into a sealable bag. The person that brings the food & driver was a quite pushy trying to sell us trips & safaris which was a shame because he was nice.

    The guys that was working during pur stay was helpful. Beautiful 80acre coconut farm to walk through, even got given a free coconut by the workers which the receptionist kindly opened for us & gave us fresh mangos from his tree. He organised good srilankan food for us which was brought as a take away which got delivered to the accommodation for a small fee. Food was tasty.

    The room was spacious and at a very affordable price. The area around the room is so green, you can see a lot of chipmunks, beautiful birds and if you're lucky monkeys too. Ashfal organized for me the safari to Wilpattu National Park for a very good price. If I'll pass again from Puttalam I'll definitely stay again in this nice nature resort 😊

    Location, price, rooms, cooking facilities, property has a lot of wildlife like 2 different types squirrels, 2 different types of bats at night, monkeys, peacocks, many different kinds of birds, lizards were they are permanent residents of the water hole. Staff are amazing with information, arranging or assisting with tours, tuk tuks, delivery of meals. Special thank you to Afshal who went out of his way everyday we were there. We have stayed in many home stays in Sri Lanka and this is by far our favourite, highly recommend.

    Exactly what we expected for the location and price! Bathroom is not attached in the twin room as it says.

    The staff here were so lovely and couldn’t do enough to help us! From helping my drive my tuk tuk when I was struggling to ordering and facilitating the nicest takeaway food I’ve had and putting it into actual plates / bowls when it arrived. For the price it’s exactly what we expected.

    Unfortunately the photos don’t look like the reality, the rooms are quite dark, dated & dirty. We had to get a spider and it’s nest off the curtains during the night. No aircon in the room & the door to the room didn’t feel very secure

    Spacious room & good wifi. Good location when needing to break up the journey from negombo to Anuradhapura
