It was a very pleasant stay. The hosts are very nice and helpful. Their hospitality is a great benifit. It was clean enough and worth the money. Different fruit for breakfast every day. Also eggs, bread, butter, hoppers were offered. Unawatuna main beach and main street with restaurants and shops are very close and it is enough quiet though.

    An authentic homestay ran by a family and a prime example of Sri Lankan hospitality. We loved our time, so much so that we extended our stay by 2 days! Breakfast is delicious, a mix of Sri Lankan dishes and continental options, with fresh fruit, coffee or tea and more food than you will be able to finish. The owner will do everything he can to make you feel at home, there is a (paid) tuktuk service and the place is spotless. Highly recommend if you want to experience a wonderful family!

    Very need and friendly local owened homestay for a fair price. Tasty homecooked breakfast, with a very nice choice of fruits and Sri Lankan food. Big clean room, warm Shower with good pressure. Tap Water to avoid plastic bottles. AC and Pool what more would you need. Also the owner and staff were friendly and honest. We paid too much without notice but He came back to us with the money. We might not have realized that we paid too much.

    The room was big and comfortable, good aircon and shower. The location is close to both the main streets for restaurants and the beach. The family running the homestay were very friendly and helpful, and have a lovely, friendly dog. Breakfast was filling. There was free parking across the street. There are monkeys that come to the street a few times a day to get snacks from the locals. The relationship they had with the animals was really cool! The family have a small grocery store and travel agent downstairs too which is very convenient.
