We absolutely loved staying here for 3 days! You will live in a wonderful garden with an amazing pool view.

The place is in 5 minutes distance from the beautiful Bentota beach. Highly recommended!

We've been in Bentota a few times now, and this is our favorite location. Very clean, comfortable bed! No mold! A lot of places in Sri Lanka have mold, not here. Also, nice big shower head with good pressure without the heater switch. Free flowing hot water, this is rare. Nice to have a bottle of water when we arrive late and thirsty. It was sold out so we could only stay one night. The floor was so clean I felt comfortable barefoot, with no crumbs or sand like I felt other places. Lovely family, everyone was so kind. They helped carry my luggage. Always smiling and nice. Great breakfast, we really enjoyed it. Fresh juice without sugar added. GREAT Wifi, it's listed in the room, so you don't have to wait or ask for a pass code. LOVE that the AC is not right above our head, like in most places. Nice quiet fan if you don't want AC. Everything was well thought out. No mosquitoes in the room! This is a big deal! No ants. Easy to communicate with on whatsapp. Nice mini fridge. There are a lot of personal touches. If avaliable book.

Location is fantastic. On the main road (yet not noisy at night) so easy to find. Close to Bentota railway station, beach, shops, restaurants, and the main town. The room and bathroom was so incredibly clean. What makes this place even more special is the couple that live there and own the place. Honestly, the most genuine and lovely people I’ve come across throughout my Sri Lankan adventure. Food can be provided up request for a small fee and is absolutely delicious. I can’t recommend this place enough. I wish I had more time so I could stay here longer! You will not regret staying here! It’s genuinely home away from home!

What I liked most was the kindness of friendliness of the fellow local tourists who stayed with us. There were three ladies who became very friendly with us and we shared our food with them. It was a unique experience.

I would say that Charika Villa is just a perfect example of hospitality. The room is lovely, the furniture is new and pleasant to use, and the bathroom is great size and even has a heater. The host is amazingly supportive. He found us a great surf instructor and helped us with transport but never promoted unwanted services. The breakfast was also great and peacocks and squirrels running around were so lovely. If you are looking for a place where you can rest you mind - that is a great choice.

    This property was a real oasis on the other side of the railway track. It was luxurious, had lovely decor, had a good pool, had great hosts and was excellent value. The breakfasts were fantastic and our host Nelson cooked us 2 delicious meals on our 2 nights there - the food was so good that we just didn’t want to eat anywhere else. Right up there with all the places we stayed in during our Sri Lankan holiday. A great find!

    Such a beautiful home right on the river. The family who runs this homestay are incredibly kind and went out of their way to make us comfortable. The daily breakfast was plentiful and delicious, consisting of omelettes, bread, fruit, fresh juice and tea or coffee. The balcony was a beautiful place to watch the sunset and the room included access to a little kitchen with a kettle so we could make our own pots of tea and coffee. It was the perfect place to rest and explore Bentota.

    We liked everything. Room was clean and tidy as shown in pics. Initially had booked this stay for one night but we extended our stay for one more night as we liked the home stay. We are pure vegiterian and it was very difficult for us to find veg restaurants in srilanka. And finally we got authentic and very tasty veg food in this stay. Owner is very cooperative. This was our bestest stay in our 8 days srilanka trip.
