    We loved everything about this property. The design, ambience and staff were very welcoming. It is a hideaway from the city. We wish we had spent more nights here exploring Kandy (an underrated city in our mind).

    Stunning homestay, Gaya and the rest of the staff are lovely, Hazel the pup is a bonus! The location is slightly out of Kandy but Tuk Tuks into Kandy can be arranged for a small fee. Good breakfast and comfy bed.

    We loved this place from the moment we arrived. Beautiful unique hotel away from the vibrant business of Kandy. Food and service was lovely and the host arranged outdoor yoga for us in the morning with a local yoga master, which we loved.

- We have a breathtaking FREE 24/7 swimming pool (Named Nirvana Pool) here, surrounded by green creepers filled with loads of flowers . - GODDESS is located just between many incredible sights so you have many options around you from different kinds of attractions - We are neither a Hostel nor a hotel, so you can come downstairs and chill with other guests when you're bored, and go back to your room when you need quietness and tranquility - We are too close to several train stations from different rail lines, so anywhere in Sri Lanka you are, you can be here easily. Also it enables you to plan for your next destination in the country as well. - The weather here is usually pleasant - Last but not least, we have an adorable dog(Crystal) here that you would fall in love with Really?!
