The Hosts were excellent, I had breakfast and evening meals at very reasonable rates, I also had some laundry done overnight, it came back clean and dry (again at a very reasonable rate). The location was fabulous right next to the park - Note this property is in the countryside, its beauty but not many restaurants close by.... This was NOT an issue for me. I loved being able to view and enjoy the nature close by farmers walking their buffalo out to pasture and back home, the views from the roof top - I also went on a bird watch safari with the host which was excellent

We had a fantastic stay. We arrived and were warmly welcomed. Our room was ready and it looked great. We had a room with sea view. We were immediately offered a beer on arrival and in the evening the host prepared fresh fish, shrimps, chips and rice for us. One of the best dishes we've had in Sri Lanka. The accommodation is located directly at sea, so you have a lot of peace here. The host is very helpful and will make your stay comfortable.

Among the best guest houses I've been. Very friendly and helpful owner, excellent food and tea, central and quiet location with sea view, 100m from beach and 500m from main bus station. Room had private bathroom, fan, good ventilation and daylight, is mosquito-proof when doors closed, and had a balcony with sea view. Free wifi is available. Very good value for money. It's very pleasant to sit on the balcony or in the shaded garden in the breeze, hear the sound of the waves and enjoy the view.

This is a wonderful place to stay; fantastic if you are on a budget and understand the facilities are basic. There is electricity, warm water and a comfortable bed...in a fabulous location with fabulous hosts. You will see an array of wildlife (porcupine, bats, crocs, elephants and exotic birds). Danoushka and Anousha were warm, welcoming and kind. We loved our stay here and felt part of nature. Anousha cooks delicious Sri Lankan food and Danoushka is knowledgeable about the local area; We went on a tuk tuk drive with him to see various temples and sites of historic importance - a highlight of our stay in Sri Lanka. My husband also did an early morning bird spotting safari on the back of a motor bike which enabled him to take some close shots of the abundant bird life. Jungle cabin gave us the experience of "real" Sri Lanka and, as a middle aged couple, it was an absolute pleasure to spend time with the hosts and enjoy their home. We would not hesitate to recommend this as a rustic place to stay...make the most of Danoushka's local and wildlife knowledge and...enjoy the tranquility.

I had an exceptional stay at the guesthouse! The family managing it is incredibly welcoming, creating a warm and friendly atmosphere. The rooms were surprisingly comfortable considering the affordable price. Every detail was thought of, and cleanliness was exemplary. It was more than just accommodation; it was an enriching experience. I highly recommend this guesthouse for those seeking a memorable and authentic stay.

Priyankara is simply the best host! He told us how to get to Tissa from Arugam Bay, picked us up at the bus station, and gave us a bird-watching tour with the most stunning sunset. The room was spacious, cool, and comfortable. He organized a Yala safari for us and made Tissa and Yala National Park an unforgettable experience. If you go to Tissa, you must stay here!
