+We had such a wonderful stay at Homestay Hideaway Kandy with Vipul and his lovely wife. We originally stayed for 3 days and an extra evening, then travelled elsewhere before returning to Kandy. We reached out to Vipul again for another night, and he was incredibly accommodating and helped us massively. They are such lovely, kind and genuinely beautiful people. The tea and coffee were amazing, the beds were unbelievably comfortable , honestly, some of the best sleep we’ve ever had! Our breakfast on the last morning was wonderful, and we really enjoyed the conversations and time spent with the family. Their hospitality made us feel so welcome and at home. Not far from the town, we took tuk tuks roughly 300 or 400 LKR. Hill to property but wasnt a problem. It is exactly what it says about the property. Beautiful dogs who greated us and knew us on our return. We genuinely couldn’t have asked for a better stay. Thank you so much, Vipul and family. We will definitely be back soon! ❤️

“One of the most special stays of my entire trip”
+This was without a doubt one of the best and most memorable stops of my entire 15-day trip around Sri Lanka. I stayed with Vipul, his wife and their family, and from the very beginning, I felt completely at home. Their generosity, kindness, warmth and genuine hospitality are something I will never forget. As a woman travelling alone, I truly felt like I was staying with my own uncle and aunt, who were taking care of me and making sure I was happy and comfortable. I spent the evening talking with Vipul and his wife, and we continued chatting over breakfast the next morning. These are the kinds of moments that make travelling so special. They didn’t just welcome me into their home they genuinely made me feel like part of the family. I slept very well, and they took such wonderful care of me throughout my stay. The food was absolutely incredible. The homemade dinner was, without any doubt, the best rice and curry I ate during my entire 15 days in Sri Lanka. It was delicious and made with so much love. And their kindness went even further: they prepared breakfast for me to take away for my train journey afterwards. Such a small gesture, but one that touched me deeply. The house itself

+Beautiful house set high above the city. It’s quite a distance from centre, so it’s very peaceful. Lovely rooms, fantastic hosts and home cooked meals are delicious. Highly recommended.

“Truly fantastic!!”
+A perfect stay. They are fantastic hosts. The room was lovely and clean, a great bathroom too. The views were incredible from the property. The bed was so soft, great aircon. We did laundry at the property too which was priced well. We enjoyed dinner one night there which was nice and spent the evening chatting with the hosts, Vipul and Kosala. Wish we could have stayed longer, one of the best places we have stayed. Highly recommend!

+Abbiamo soggiornato presso Hideaway Homestay purtroppo solo per due giorni, perché meritava davvero. La camera stupenda, la migliore di tutto il nostro viaggio in Sri Lanka. Vipul e sua moglie super accoglienti e disponibili, ci hanno accompagnato in alcuni tuor e le colazioni che ci hanno preparato erano spaziali. Veramente consigliato. Grazie mille di tutto!
