I had stayed at one of his places before, and booked this on an emergency, he was very helpful and accommodated all requests even those were last minute requests. I highly recommend the place.

A very beautiful apartment placed in a lovely serene area yet close to the attractions. It met out expectations and beyond. A very friendly check in and check out, homely place.

Glasshouse Kandy - Luxury 4 Bedroom Villa

LiseRating, 5 stars1 month ago

A really beautiful villa with a stunning view. We stayed two families (4 adults and 4 kids ages 2-6) for 4 nights. The staff was really friendly, attentive and took great care of us, and the hostess was very kind, proactive and responsive. The villa is great for some days of total relaxation!

The exterior of Victoria House is visible, featuring a modern design with large windows and a sloped roof. Lush greenery surrounds the property, with climbing vines and flowering plants in the foreground. A chain-link fence provides a boundary, creating an inviting sense of privacy.

Mulberry Cottage, by a stream near Kandy

TuvaRating, 5 stars14 months ago

Just to be clear: this is a simple living type of cottage and the road to get there is tricky (we’d strongly recommend a car with good clearance if you’re coming by car). However, once you get there it is well worth it! The view and tranquility of the place is amazing. Jerry and Sally are super friendly and welcoming and make you feel at home – the door to their neighbouring house (main house) is always open, and you’re welcome to use the pool in their garden, or just hang out and have a chat with them in the living room. They also offer breakfast and dinner (there’s a basic kitchen in the cabin if you want to cook yourself), and this was for us both convenient and very nice – we had some good talks with both Jerry, Sally and their other guests. This was a good starting point for the first (and second) stage of the Pekoe Trail nearby (15/20 min by tuk tuk). We highly recommend!

Luxury River View Villa

ShaivyaRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago

My entire stay at Edgar Mansion was truly exceptional. From the moment I arrived, I was captivated by the thoughtful attention to detail in the decor. Every corner of the house exuded a sense of elegance and warmth, creating an inviting and aesthetically pleasing atmosphere that made me feel right at home. I would also like to extend my deepest gratitude to Chef Reggie and his talented team. Not only did they prepare extraordinary meals that delighted the senses, but they also went above and beyond to attend to all our needs with genuine care and professionalism. Their dedication truly elevated the entire experience.

The entrance to the bungalow is illuminated by soft outdoor lighting, highlighting the elegant railing of the staircase. The tiled steps lead to a covered porch area, framed by decorative windows and inviting architectural details that blend into the surrounding hillside.

Sobasee Holiday Bungalow

FlorianRating, 5 stars2 months ago

A great apartment within easy walking distance of the lake and temple. The hosts were super friendly, and the accommodation was very clean—we felt right at home and spontaneously extended our stay! Due to the thin Styrofoam gaps at the top of the walls, we occasionally heard some noise from traffic, monkeys, or between our own rooms. That said, we had no issues with mosquitoes or cold air, and we would happily book another stay with Lakmal and his wife!

A misty landscape is depicted, with rolling hills covered in lush greenery. Tall trees rise above the vegetation, creating a serene and natural setting. The fog envelops the scene, adding a sense of tranquility and mystery to the environment.

World's Heritage Knuckles Range Experience Stay

VenkatRating, 5 stars15 months ago

This is the most beautiful place I have visited in Sri Lanka!! The location is SO serene and beautiful. Lush vegetation, surrounded by mountains and waterfalls nearby. The road was quite good to get to the homestay, More than all of this Wasantha and her husband are greatly hospitable. She made the BEST local authentic food with home grown vegetables and fruits. Then we went to the local waterfalls, where you can even get a free fish massage in the water! You can exhaust your camera roll taking pictures here!! All I can just say, "Absolutely Amazing!!!!!", "Memorable!!"

Panta-Rhei : Suite ONE

Luca MarieRating, 5 stars1 month ago

The place is incredible and looks exactly like the photos. There‘s a lot of space for two people. The stuff is very friendly and helpful. It is peaceful but you do need a tuktuk to get to the city center because the way is long and the streets are steep. But if you like the nature, this place is made for you.

A spacious bedroom features a large bed with crisp white linens, flanked by two bedside tables. Large windows with yellow curtains provide natural light and offer a view of the surrounding landscape. A neatly rolled towel rests at the foot of the bed.

Green Hill View Condo

ElzaRating, 5 stars3 months ago

We booked Cheshan's place in less than 12 hours before arriving. The host quickly replied to our questions. He and the caretaker were very helpful and agreed to take our luggage for storage before checking in. The place itself is lovely and within walkable distance to the center and the lake. The apartment is in the new building with underground parking and a pub nearby. The bathrooms were clean and well maintained. Highly recommend this apartment for fellow travelers.

The Roof top - Room 05

BoasRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago

I felt like a celebrity in Mary's home! It immediately felt good at the entrance. The tall doors to her palace opened and the white marble tiles, the high ceilings and the feeling of a sparkling clean house laughed at us. What a luxury and sense of style it radiated. A special place that, as far as we are concerned, is formidably blended with the tropical green environment. Thanks to the view of the river, the woods and the hills from the roof terrace or when you lie in the pool, you have a sense of tranquility, in a busy and vibrant city. Something that came for us at the right time as we were really ready. Breakfast was also fantastic, and Mary and her wife made us feel like we were part of the family. Totally recommend this hidden gem!

The room features two wooden beds with a minimalist design, positioned beside each other. A wooden dresser and a small stool are included, while a mirrored frame reflects natural light. Colorful floral curtains cover the window, adding a touch of vibrancy to the space.

Ifti Holiday Home 2

DennisRating, 5 stars74 months ago

Nice place. The Host Iftiquar and his family are super friendly. We enjoyed staying there. He even arranged upon request a scooter with which we drove two days throught the Knuckles. Good place to start Knuckles-Trips because you dont have to drive through Kandy for its located a little outside of Kandy. We felt very welcome all the time and recommend the place.

A simple bedroom is shown, featuring a wooden bed with a light-colored mattress and two white pillows. A small area rug is placed beside the bed, and the room is illuminated by soft lighting from a wall fixture.
