Kusal and his family were so overwhelmingly welcoming! It is a great start/end to your holiday as he can drop you to the airport He took us to local cinnamon farm, showing us about local trades for making materials for clothes and rubber, then to a moonstone mine and a turtle hatchery. He has lots of knowledge on local life and great to speak to about Sri Lanka. We also had a cooking lesson which was interesting and great fun They are very accommodating and it’s a great place to stay to experience real life in Sri Lanka. Him and his wife Chani made us amazing home cooked Sri Lankan food and their home was lovely to stay in. Breakfast was amazing aswell! It was a lovely homestay with genuine people and made us feel very at home! Thank you so much! If you’re looking for a personal stay with lots of Sri Lankan traditions please book this one! Couldn’t have been happier

The family was very welcoming, Nayananda had great tips on what to do in Kandy and how to get around. The room was exactly as described and very clean, spacious and bathroom was great. There was no AC just a fan if that bothers you but with the climate in Kandy we never felt too hot in the house. We had breakfast served at a time suitable to us which made our days smoother, and breakfast was always filling! Nayananda and his wife were friendly and did all they could to help our stay, they helped us with booking taxis and advised on where to book certain tours which was incredibly helpful. Their place was close to the Rainforest sanctuary (within walking distance) and about 10-15mins walk from shops and restaurants in Kandy. It’s about 20-25mins to Kandy where the main temples are. It felt more like a B&B than a homestay because the room we had was in a separate house and they were living in another house next door. The stay is next to a school that starts quite early in the morning which did not bother us, but if you like to sleep in there is quite abit of noise. Thank you for a lovely stay, it was comfortable and a great location.
