We felt like we were at auntie and uncle's house! Everything was thought of in the room! Each floor was decorated with local products and had cozy sitting areas. We were given restaurant suggestions and walked across the road to find sun beds on the beach. Our hosts were so easy to chat with and were so willing to help take us to a local restaurant as well as come with umbrellas to the beach to walk us 'home' in a rainstorm. Like: warmly greeted by hosts; presented with a flower lei and a King coconut welcome drink; very clean and spacious room with high ceilings; balcony with table and chairs as well as 2 lounge chairs; 4 pillows; fresh flowers and leaves scattered throughout the room; electrical outlets on both sides of bed; on third floor; wardrobe has hangars; room is furnished great thought; hosts are amazing - they took us to restaurant in their tuk tuk and came to beach with umbrellas to rescue us in a rainstorm; large, thick, soft towels; shower has very hot water and strong water pressure; local touches: clay vases, woven grass mats and baskets; lamps on each side of bed; extra blanket in the wardrobe; breakfast: passionfruit juice, diverse fruit plate, yogurt with honey, eggs of your choice and a variety plate with 5 different Sriracha Lankan local foods - a beautiful and delicious spread

Come visit Aayu's villa. You will be treated like royalty. Aayu is an outstanding host who goes above and beyond to make your stay perfect. Would definetely recommend to anyone. The villa is immaculately clean, European standards. Hot water, aircon, fan all working perfectly. Sheets smelling nice and fresh, soft towels. Breakfast is far the best we had in 2 weeks in Sri Lanka. The bed is actually king size with comfortable mattress. Can't recommend enough. Shortcut to the beach! Ayu also could organize the best river safary in few minutes and we got to see 3 crocos, 4 varans, many monkeys and giant bats.

Absolutely amazing place. The owners were so lovely and really attentive - they even gave us complimentary drinks and fruits from the garden and called us when there were monkeys and birds around. Was in a beautiful setting at one with nature but still just a short walk to shops and restaurants. The room, bathroom and balconies couldn’t have been nicer. Best place we’ve stayed at in Sri Lanka :)

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!

Lovely room hosted by a lovely family. The room is spacious and comfotable with a quiet a/c. When I first arrived, the wifi wasn't working that well, I mentioned it to the host, and he called Digitel and fixed it in 5 minutes! Then there was a huge storm and the electricity went out, and they were in my room in no time turning on the fuses. No problem was too big for this family! I also loved my breakfasts here-- I have all kinds of food issues-- low carb, no gluten, and the dad happily created healthy and delicious breakfasts for me!

What a wonderful place. We felt so welcome. The room was lovely and clean, and we had a quite large outdoor private area. The host is very friendly and serviceminded. She recommend the best restaurants and made good deals for us for tours and transport. The guesthouse is in a quiet area not far from the most wonderful beach you could imagine. You just have to go down the road, cross the railway at the station and go through the park....We highly recommend a stay and would gladly return of we came to the area again
