“Amazing stay”
+The place is extremely new, well equipped, and extremely comfortable. Nice beds, good air-conditioning, shower working perfectly, very clean. There is a fridge you can use to store food and a water dispenser. The family hosting us was amazing! Available for any doubts/information we had, and super kind. It was an extremely nice stay. We really enjoyed our stay.

“Highly recommend!!”
+Pulenthiran was an excellent host. A large fridge with freezer was great. Fresh filtered water available at all times. We felt well looked after.
−It was just a little off the beaten track. Took us a bit to get our bearings but walkable to all the major sites we wanted to see,

“Lovely, clean room close to the ocean.”
+Lovely room with a bathroom next to it and a room to make tea. There is also a fridge that we could use and free drinking water for us. The AC works great and the hosts organized a lovely tuktuk driver. The accommodation is close to the ocean and also one of the beaches. Overall we had a lovely stay.
−The shower was a little broken. Still usable but everything else in the bathroom also gets wet.

“Definitely worth its value 100%!!!”
+We, a family of 5, came to stay for only 1 day at Javi Home but ended up staying 9 wonderful days!! The guest house is new so all facilities are clean. The beds are super comfortable. The AC works quietly and efficiently. There is a huge balcony/ lounge area outside of the bedroom where we spent a lot of time. There is a separate room for making tea and coffee. The owners are very very friendly!! We all enjoyed little Javi and his parents. Javi's mom speaks excellent English and we got to ask her a lot of questions about life and culture of Sri Lanka. She and her husband are one of the friendliest people we have met in Sri Lanka!!! The location is excellent. Very close to the amazing beach, grocery shops and good restaurants. Mallika Resort has a very good restaurant, where we ate often. The owners gladly helped us with directing and recommending places. The home is also very close to a Dutch Fort Frederick that had wild peacock and deer everywhere. You will NOT find anything that offers this great value for the cost. The place is VERY affordable. If we are ever back in Trinco we will gladly stay at Javi Holiday Home again! 😊

“Fabuleux”
+The establishment is particularly well located, bus stand, market, Fort Frederick and temple, everything can be easily reached walking, necessary shops and restaurants are nearby, the beach for swimming is just near. The area is very quiet. The owner and his family are very kindly and helpful. The accommodation (room with bathroom) is well equipped, in good condition and very clean. There is a small private room with balcony, coffee table and chairs to make a hot drink or dry your laundry. The owner also offered us use of the rooftop. We had an excellent stay, we highly recommend this establishment.
