“Restful and peaceful with very sweet hosts.”
+I liked the owners they were really sweet and the secluded location was perfect for a good rest. Beautiful trees and jungle view outside the room.
−There wasn't AC but the fan was sufficient in the end. Would have been nice to have a sheet and towel provided.

“Lovely place to relax in beautiful nature surrounding.”
+Thank you for hosting us in your beautiful property. The garden / outside were lovely. I enjoyed having delicious breakfast while sitting outside. Hosts are very nice and helpful. Thank you for getting us on a bus after our stay.
−We didn’t have big bedsheets at the beginning but the hosts brought us bigger ones. Very reactive!

“Little family stay”
+It's a small, family-run home stay in a pretty garden. The host was exceptionally friendly, always smiling and making sure we're well taken care of. He offered us fruit juice and helped us catch a bus (directly from the road near the Sath Rest, so very convenient). This homestay is in walking distance to go to a safari trip (we went with nature trails) The host doesn't really speak English, but it wasn't much of an issue - his son helps with translation if needed.
−Set of bedsheets and the smell of the room were more in local style, which can be a bit tiring. It was clean but aromas/detergents used were unpleasant for us.

“Comfortable room in green paradise”
+Good location (in nature but close to city center). Bed wlth mosquito net. Always hot water. Towels. The host is very nice and helpful (stopped the bus for us, borrowed a charger, ...). The host only speaks little english. One time he did not understand us so he called his son Ishan to translate. Breakfast and dinner were plenty, good and cheap. Habanara is the perfect location to visit Polonnaruwa, Annuradhapura, Sigyria and Dambulla - even by bus. Habanara is nicer than Dambulla.

“Superb”
+Sath Rest is a wonderful guesthouse, run with attentiveness and helpfulness by the family. Lovely, quiet location and Haberana is an excellent centre to visit Sigiriya, Dambulla and others. Great food on request and the portions are enormous!
