Pieceful, beautifully mentained, quiet lodge. The manager is so friendly and helpful. It was a super personal and wonderful experience. There is no music ever, so it is always quiet even in the restaurant, which we loved so much. The food was delicious so was the breakfast.

The owner picked us up at the bus stop and welcomed us with a fresh drink. We were happy to stay at this villa. The room has everything you need, the ac, the fan and it was very clean. It is located a bit far from the center but we liked it even more, because it was super calm. The owner also dropped us at the temple entrance and picked us up from there on his tuktuk all at the price of pick me app. Then the other day he drove us to sigiriya and even packed us a breakfast to go (tip: put it in your backpack), showed us other places on the way back and then helped us arrange a jeep trip to the national park with the elephants. The breakfast and dinner we had there were delicious. The staff is extremely polite and friendly!

Extremely nice homestay, at 5 minutes (walking) from the entrance to the caves. The owners are extremely kind: whenever they could, they offered me a free time to the bus station (I used Dambulla as the base for daytrips to Polonnaruwa and Anuradhapura, both are at 1,5-2 hours by bus). The lady cooks delicious dinners, and was kind enough to cook me a special, non spicy curry. Some 1,5 kilometers away from Dambulla center. Overally, an exceptional homestay.

    The location of the farm was excellent, you will find yourself in places you would not come otherwise. Pradeep's place is very well maintained, we stayed in one of the cheaper rooms and they were quite basic but that's what we wanted. If you are up for more luxury there are four new rooms which are all very modern and super clean! The farm is great and staff super friendly and helpful. It was a great way to get a peek in actual sri lankan culture. Would definitely recommend going here!

    Very clean and comfortable, the staff were smiley and friendly, willing to help where able. The location is ideal for access to the busy centre but far enough away that you don't have the noise that goes with it. The beautiful views made the already enjoyable and filling breakfast, even better. AC and fan worked well!
