Riverside Lounge – A Peaceful Stay by the Mahaweli River Nestled on the banks of Sri Lanka’s longest river, the Mahaweli, this beautiful home offers a serene escape surrounded by nature — just moments away from Kandy city. Located only 4.6 km from the city centre and 3.7 km from the Temple of the Tooth Relic, the property provides the perfect balance — away from the busy city, yet close enough to all main attractions. If you’re someone who loves nature, tranquillity, and scenic views, this is your ideal place to relax and unwind. The property features two comfortable bedrooms — one triple room and one double room — along with a rooftop pool where you can enjoy panoramic views of the river and hills. In the evenings, sit back and watch birds and bats glide over the river as the sun sets — a truly peaceful way to end the day.

We are a warm and friendly couple who truly enjoy sharing our home and hospitality with others. My husband is a businessman, and I’ve been a homemaker for many years. We have two wonderful daughters who are now married and living on their own. After our daughters started their own journeys, we decided to open our home to travellers — turning it into a homestay where we can meet new people and share the warmth and peace of our riverside home. Hospitality comes naturally to us, and we take great joy in making our guests feel comfortable and at home. Whether it’s enjoying a cup of tea by the river or sharing stories about life in Kandy, we look forward to welcoming you as part of our family during your stay.

Our home is nestled in a peaceful Sri Lankan village, offering an authentic taste of local life surrounded by nature. The property is located along Gangasiriwatta Road, just a short distance from the Lewella Bridge, overlooking the serene flow of the Mahaweli River. We are truly fortunate to have kind and friendly neighbours who make this area feel safe and welcoming. If you’re someone who enjoys the calm rhythm of village life — hearing birds in the morning, watching the river flow, and experiencing the genuine warmth of a Sri Lankan community — this is the perfect place for you. Here, you’ll get to enjoy the quiet charm of the countryside while staying close to Kandy city.
