+Good value for money: good location, clean room with hot water, nice breakfast and helpful host on whatsapp. It is just off the main road so you do not hear the traffic at night.
−The staff working there spoke little English but honestly, not a problem for me because they were very friendly and helpful. Fyi: no mosquito net.

+I loved this beautiful and unique house, right in the middle of a busy Dickwella town, yet hidden away in a garden behind a street gate so it becomes like a quite oasis after chaos of the town. Only minutes walk to one of my favourite beaches, with fishing boats and away from any crowds. If you want to spend time in fun surf beach Hiriketiya, it’s only 15min walk from here. I enjoyed having breakfast in the house with monkeys playing around and sounds of nature. Rooms are comfortable and nice. I would certainly be back!

+Our stay at mahagedara was absolutely wonderful! The property is beautifully surrounded by nature, offering complete peace and relaxation. The villa was spotless and very well maintained, making it feel like home from the moment we arrived. It’s also excellent value for money compared to other places we’ve stayed. The host “Minu” was extremely friendly, welcoming, and always ready to help with anything we needed. Breakfast was simply amazing - fresh, delicious, and the perfect start to a day. And the beach is just 5 minutes from here. Highly recommend this place.

“Amazing stay!”
+It is in central location but tucked away from the main road, we slept really well. The breakfast is superb, probably the best we had during our trip in Sri Lanka! Room is super clean and bed is comfortable, we also loved the garden! The owner is really kind and hospitable.
−Maybe a small cabinet in the room for storage would be nice.

“Great location”
+Nice location and staf is super helpful. Location nearby beach. After an item was lost during laundry the owner made sure it was send to our next homestay. No hot water and bit difficult to find as its tucked away on a road with no sign.

“Spotless, comfy and nice staff”
+This place was completely spotless, which was even better as I had to leave my previous accomodation early due to uncleanliness. This is a family run business and the owners are super nice and really helpful. The breakfast was great, with a view of monkeys climbing the trees while you eat! The bed was comfy and the bathroom was clean. This place is great value for money, would recommend.
−Having a sign outside the property along the road would be super helpful. It's quite hard to find, especially at night. The location is a little bit removed from the activity area but that suits some people!
