"Pros: love the owners they welcome me with big smiles and the room was prepared Cons: nothing" ~Julia

"Pros: 🌿 “A True Hidden Gem – Heartfelt Hospitality in Nature’s Embrace” 🌿 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 (10/10) From the moment we arrived, the welcome we received from the hosts was warmer than any hotel 💕. This beautiful homestay is surrounded by lush greenery, with birds 🐦, squirrels 🐿️, and peaceful garden views creating a relaxing, natural vibe 🌺. The room was spacious, clean 🧼, and came with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Our favorite part was enjoying delicious homemade meals 🍛 an experience that felt truly special. Host & family were incredibly kind and attentive 🙏. Their warmth and care made us feel like part of their home. Each morning, we were served a lovely Sri Lankan breakfast 🍽️, freshly prepared with love ❤️. We also had the chance to explore the nearby Ibbankatuwa Wewa 🏞️ – a beautiful lake just a short walk away where you can safely enjoy a refreshing bath 🚿 or simply relax by the water. Another hidden gem is the peaceful Sankassapa Temple 🛕 nearby, perfect for a quiet walk and a spiritual moment. If you're looking for a calm, cozy, and heartwarming place to stay near Dambulla, Lake Island Homestay is the perfect choice 🌸. Highly recommended for nature lovers and anyone seeking genuine Sri Lankan hospitality 🤗🇱🇰. (There is another Guest House Near by the same location, with a similar name, so please make sure and call the host when you reach there) Regards -Jayantha Senior Manager - HR ,Admin and Training The Argyle Luxury Boutique Hotel" ~Jayantha
