This accommodation is simply amazing! The couple we stayed with for two nights was incredible. She cooked unbelievably well, and he drove us to every attraction for a bargain price. The rooms are very clean and well-equipped. I can only recommend this place!

- bed is really comfy and accommodation super clean - hot shower !!! - warm welcome from the family - Sheeva helps to organise all the activities as the place is strategically based in the center of the cultural triangle of Sri Lanka : safari for elephants, sunset and sunrise at lion rocks and Pidurangala rock but also reply to a lot of requests that is really nice (example: he told me how to get to his place by local bus so I could avoid paying a lot in taxi as a solo young traveller it’s really nice) - quite area - interesting discussion with the owner to learn about Sri Lanka story - food available (but I would recommend to check price in advance just to know what you are going to pay) - host organised for me an Ayurvedic treatment that was so good - good quality for the services provided compared to the price paid

What a place! We had the best time at Visu Villa. If you would like the planning hassle taken out of your trip for a few days, hand yourselves over to Ruwan and the team at Visu Villa. We stayed for three nights at this lovely family run oasis tucked away about a km out of Habarana. Ruwan and his sister Kawshalya made us feel so welcome and Ruwan seamlessly planned and executed the next three days for us. His attention to detail was amazing. We met the team one by one and their service was just great including jeep driver Irosh and tuk tuk driver Anthony. There is a bar, a lovely pool, home cooked food by Tharidu, great people and nice comfy rooms. If you are a fiercely independent traveller who wants to control every minute and rupee this is perhaps not the place for you. The joy of Visu Villa is trusting in Ruwan and his very fair pricing, eating the recommended food, going to the recommended places, being taken care of, having fun with the team and enjoying Sri Lankan hospitality at it's best. Thanks Ruwan and team for a truly memorable three days.

Beautiful room with an equally beautiful ensuite bathroom (with hot water). Great location: town center still within walking distance but far enough to not get any city noises at all. Instead surrounded by lush greenery. The host and his family are very kind and super helpful: he fetched me with his tuk tuk from the train when I arrived, brought me to the bus station when I left, and drove me to Sigiriya, Dambulle and Polonnaruwa for a fair price. Also organized a safari to the local national park. The best was his wife's meals: The breakfasts but especially the home-made dinners were mouthwateringly delicious! Highly recommend you eat her home-made food as much as you can. The WiFi was good as well. I don't give 10 point reviews easily but this place highly deserves it. When you come to Habarana, stay here!

Very close to town and the air conditioning was great. The owner is so lovely and organised so much for us. Brought us around on his tuk tuk free of charge. The breakfast was also amazing! Highly recommend. 10mins on a tuk tuk from the train station.

This was one of the less places in years of travelling we won't forget in our whole life. The owner Vimal and his wife Maneke are such lovely and great people, we're really happy to get the chance in our lifes to get to know this kind people. Vimal helped us like your own father with all we needed. Beautiful shady garden to relax on your own terrace and big breakfast made with a lot of love. If we come back to Sri Lanka, the fist thing is to book at room here again!! Absolutly recommandation!

Our stay here was truly exceptional! The rooms were spotless, beautifully designed, and provided a comfortable and relaxing space. The hosts were outstanding, always ready to assist with anything we needed—from arranging a safari and transportation to helping with train bookings. They even took the time to teach us how to prepare Kottu Roti, which made our stay even more unique and special. The family’s dog was a lovely addition, adding to the welcoming and homely atmosphere. Breakfast was a standout feature, feeling like something out of a high-end restaurant. From the freshly baked bread and flavorful curries to the vibrant selection of fruits, every detail was carefully thought out. It was, without a doubt, the best breakfast we had during our time in Sri Lanka. Highly recommend this place to anyone planning a visit to the area!

    I recently stayed at Habarana New Star Home Stay for three nights and had a wonderful experience. The accommodation offers three rooms: two with air conditioning and one with a fan, all featuring ensuite bathrooms and kept very clean. The friendly hosts were a highlight, providing excellent hospitality and offering tuk tuk services to nearby attractions. The breakfast served was delicious, adding to the overall pleasant stay. The location is convenient, just a 5-minute walk from town. Highly recommended!

    We loved this property and would highly recommend it. The host was very friendly and made sure we had everything we needed. He cooked us dinner each night and a breakfast each morning. Each meal had a massive spread of beautiful food. The property is extremely clean. It is close to Habarana to walk in if needed, however we didn’t do this as we were tired after a long day. Thank you for being a great host.

    We were delighted with the kindness and attention our hosts provided; nothing was too much trouble. The breakfasts in the tree house overlooking the lake were magnificent and plentiful. We also had great home cooked evening meals. The room was a great size, comfortable and the bathroom likewise. We also were taken around the local cultural sites by our host in his tuktuk with him patiently waiting for us before returning to the homestay. All in all, we couldn't have wished for more. Thank you for everything.

    Jeewa was a great host! He was always trying to help and pretty much organised everything for us. The accommodation is very peaceful and the AC in the room was great. We did several tours through him including Minneriya elephant safari, Sigiriya & Pidurangala rock, Spice garden, Cultural show and to get a Aryuwdric treatment. He dropped us off wherever we needed to go for a very cheap price. The food cooked by Masha was some of the best we had in Sri Lanka!

    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.
