We have booked this place for our first night in Sri Lanka. The owner met us on arrival. As it was everything new to us, we had a good few questions and owner couldn't be more than helpful. He advised us on the places we can visit, where to exchange money etc. Communications been very clear. The house is located within working distance to the very busy town, but in the very quiet area, so we had a very good sleep 😁 If you are looking to visit Matale and looking to stay near by highly recommend to stay at this property 👍 This was a first time we saw the monkeys 🤣🤣

The view from the room was absolutely stunning. The property offers two types of rooms: one with a balcony and one without balcony but an extended front view. During our extended stay, we had the opportunity to experience both. Both rooms were immaculately clean, spacious, and featured king-sized beds that were extremely comfortable. The wooden chairs and tables added a charming touch, and the bathrooms were modern and well-maintained. The highlight of our stay was the host, Susantha. He is a genuinely kind and helpful person, always eager to assist with any needs. Beyond that, he’s an excellent cook! I highly recommend trying both breakfast and dinner—he’s happy to customize dishes to suit your preferences. Conveniently, there’s a grocery store right outside the property, along with a few nearby cafés. For even more options, the main market is just a 10-minute tuk-tuk ride away. If you enjoy outdoor activities, there are also several hiking spots in the area.

If You try to find a very special home GH with a bunch of local intellectual architecture and the warmth of home, You should book Namaya Nature. The owner and hoster Mrs. Neetha is one of the sweetest ladies I have ever met in my life. She will be carying of You with the willing of her hearth. Our room was really carmatic. Sitting in the balcony we could admire the great view of Kandy and moreover be in the contact with the nature. A huge jungle tree was just in front of us blooming and sometimes monkeys walking up & down & feeding themselves with the flowers. Taking our breakfast, we could admire a huge Budha stattue in the valley of Kandy and be served like in a 5 stars hotel. Moreover if You like to eat very tasting lunch or dinner, Neetha is really an excellent and biological cooker. We were really satisfied and happy. Eva & Jean
