We had the most wonderful stay here. The hosts are very special people, who welcome you with open arms into their family home. The room was very comfortable and we slept so deeply! The garden is an oasis, full of birds and the most beautiful blooms. Don't hesitate to book 🥰. Thank you again for your kindness!

We had two nights at the Grove and everything was perfect. We had the family room which was enormous with a beautiful shaded balcony overlooking the mountains. The breakfast was phenomenal- eggs and sausages, followed by platters of French toast and pancakes and finally a plate of fresh fruit. We ate their both evenings and the dinners were excellent. We especially loved the infinity pool which was perfect for a cool down and big enough to get a proper swim in after a hot walk or run.

The owners of Chathu are incredibly generous, friendly and kind, and this is what makes the place so special. The rooms are simple and comfortable, and the house has a beautiful view, with a balcony overlooking the valley. Home-cooked dinner and breakfast were delicious - some of the best food I had in Sri Lanka - and they packed up the breakfast leftovers for my train trip.

I’ve stayed in many different places during my month-long trip through Sri Lanka, but this one truly stands out above them all.✨ It is by far the most beautiful and peaceful place I have visited. Suresh is the kindest host you could ever meet — he does everything he can to make you feel completely at home.🧡 The view is absolutely breathtaking, everything is spotless and well taken care of, and the breakfast is unbelievably delicious. If you wish, they also prepare dinner, and you can really taste the love and skill that goes into every dish. We enjoyed every single meal here. Staying here has been an unforgettable experience — one we can wholeheartedly recommend to anyone. We ourselves extended our stay three times because we simply didn’t want to leave. ❤️ Thank you so much, Suresh, for this wonderful time!

An absolute gem of a homestay. The hosts were friendly and helpful, the room and the bathroom — spotlessly clean, the bed — comfy, dinner and breakfast that the lady owner cooked for me — filling and tasty. What more is there to ask for?

The owner were very helpfull, they picked us from the busstation for free. It's possible to get tasty local food (breakfast, lunch & dinner). It's possible to fly the drone from the rooftop or doing Yoga. We would recommend the homestay.
