🔴🔴🔴FOR LOCAL BOOKINGS- YOU HAVE TO RESERVE OVER THE PHONE .PLEASE CONTACT US. 🔴🔴🔴 Welcome to Sweet Home Tourist Rest. It’s a great pleasure for us to accommodate you here & provide services from our hearts. Sweet home Tourist rest was established in 2019 with a homey concept to ensure that you feel at home. This property consists of three bedrooms, a living room with a sitting area, dining area, TV lounge, balcony, bathroom, and a kitchen. Four adults can be accommodated in each room. This property is appropriate for solo travelers, couples, families, and groups who would like to stay together. Sharing could be a great option for you This option is appropriate only for solo travelers and couples Because of having a single bathroom we provide this accommodation only a team for once. It means after we get a reservation, we usually block the date for the other rooms. If you feel it’s better to have some other guests share this place with you, please let us know, we will remove the date block and allow the other guests to book a room. Then the maximum number of guests at this property would be four including you. Sweet Home’s Kitchen - “A meal with a heart” You haven’t experienced an authentic Sri Lankan meal until you experience a meal here.
Hello, I am Nilukshan, the host of Sweet Home Tourist Rest.
