    The most lovely family run this small accomodation, such beautiful people and fabulous breakfast. Location is walking distance to the cave temple, but we had a driver so drove. Super clean

    I’ll never forget how warmly I was treated here — such a lovely and kind-hearted family 🥹❤️ We spent just one night with them, and every moment was filled with generosity and care. The room was perfectly prepared for our arrival: spotlessly clean, air-conditioned, and even included a welcome drink. Dinner was incredible — a feast for just two people! We enjoyed traditional Sri Lankan dishes, all cooked with love and attention to detail. Breakfast was just as generous (best hoppers in town 😎), and the sweet mum even packed up the leftovers for us to take away 🥰 A truly 10/10 experience. I’m so grateful for their hospitality ❤️❤️

    This place is in perfect location with golden temple and cave temple right just about 300m from the stay. The host is very helpful and her breakfast is just too good. I would recommend this place to anyone looking for a stay in dambulla.

    Nothing. No way you can dislike anything here.

    10 on 10. Everything was just picture perfect. The owner family is cordial, friendly and ready to meet every need you have.. Thusara greeted us with.a warm smile and kept the smile brightened during all our stay. Her son Priyan was ever present with all the need we had. The breakfast was extra-ordinary too and they arranged us breakfast at 6.30 in the.morning according to.our necessity. just to h May be it was the first-time, i just liked everything.in a hotel.or reaort. When i say everything, its literary everything.

    My only regret is not to have had dinner at JM resort, considering how good the breakfast was.

    One of the best guesthouses I’ve ever stayed at. We were welcomed with a warm smile and a fresh juice, the room was perfectly clean, bigger than I expected, with everything you need and more (several towels each, toothpaste, bottled water …). The family that runs this guesthouse is truly kind. Breakfast was amazing, tasty and very filling. The garden is relaxing. Location is perfect, very close to the caves (we walked there).

    We went as a family of four. Having just arrived to the country all was very new and different. But we were made very welcome by our host family and soon loved everything around us. It was a wonderful experience to stay with a local family. The host Thushara and her son Priyan were fantastic and went out of their way to help with transport and tours we wished to take. They made great breakfast and cooked dinner for us, which was really good local food. We went away having gained a family in Sri Lanka

    The families that run this place are the BEST I have ever experienced! They cook unbelievable breakfasts and no problem to cook you dinner also which is HUGE and varied for a very reasonable price👌😉 Dont hesitate to use this place as it certainly feels like home and they treat you like family👍 its close to Dambulla Caves just get a tuk tuk to the entrance at the top of the hill 400rupees and walk back down to the front and back to your room simple😉👏🏼the ceiling fan is all you need no problems👍 I was SAD to leave honestly🥲

    We planned to stay one night, but ended up staying three night, because we liked the place so much! The family who runs this place is super lovely, friendly, extremely welcoming and helpful. The breakfast is delicious and you definitely won't be hungry afterwards. :) The family also helped us renting a scooter. To have a scooter is quite useful, because the accomodation is a bit outside of the center. However, the dambulla cave temple is in walking distance. The room was clean, beds are very comfortable and the terrace is nice for sitting outside in the morning or evening and enjoying a coffee or a beer. We definitely recommend this place and hopefully come back one day!
