All of the above and more. The staff’s dedication and commitment to the guests was second to none. And it was genuine. They made us feel welcome like we were family.
Just wow. Had a chance to speak with the owner, since he is on site and manages the property. This is his family home, turned into a boutique hotel. He and his staff take care of it as though they all live there and it’s their home, and you are their royal guest. Drinks and lunch upon arrival, and the food was the best food we had up to this date on our trip. Authentic, tasty, and made to order. The rooms were gorgeous. Kind of a mothball smell in our room, but outside of that, just incredible. Amazing service from the second our driver pulled up, which they arranged (for a small fee of course). They also arranged a “Colombo by TukTuk” tour for us that was a little pricey for what it was, but still took care of all the high points of Colombo. Massage was less than desirable from an outside therapist, but that’s not on them, that’s the therapist. Overall, blown away by the beauty, and if I was designing a home in a rainforest, this is what I would want it to look like.
One of the most extraordinary homes I have stayed in. owned by an amazing artist who designed both the structure and the interior.
Located right on the lake it is a beautiful spot full of wildlife.
A delightful escape that feels like your own villa. With the lake and the forests you can forget about big city stresses and relax. It's grand and festive with great food and friendly and helpful staff. All the details have been well thought out making for an effortless experience with little personalized touches.
Amazing stay on our first night in Sri Lanka. We arrived early and room was ready 2 hours earlier than the expected time of 2 hours. A great place to chill out, we had dinner and breakfast in the hotel and the food was excellent. Kind helpful staff who couldn’t do enough for us

Disliked: Amenities
Great staff and lovely design to the hotel but sadly there was a lot of build work and the hotel is in a bit of a rough area.
Also, would not advise having dinner at the hotel as this is very expensive for small portions.
Can not fault the staff though who were excellent.
I fell in love as soon as I booked it but when I actually checked in I was thrown back!! This house is a true gem, walking in through the gate you don’t see the house right away so I was second guessing my choice. It’s a hidden gem and a true paradise. I was so impressed from the design to the staff to the service just overall amazing. Highly recommend it. they also own the restaurant before you enter the gate which has more food options so dining there was also great. Breakfast was wow!! Trust me 5 star indeed!!
On first arriving outside the property don’t panic as through the gate you enter a different world; a peaceful piece of electric & ethnic designer heaven with the property slightly elevated from the surrounding lake with greenery & nature all around. The service provided is excellent & always with a smile. One small criticism is there are some minor maintenance jobs that are outstanding & could do with attending to in order to secure a 5* review when comparing to other small luxury hotels of that standard. But having said that we will return to the property & would thoroughly recommend it. The photographs shown on the various websites give a good impression of the property. However the true experience excels. Tuk tuks are a plenty for nearby local transport.
This is an amazing hotel that has been lovingly furnished using local art and an eye for design and colour. It is not only comfortable, but also just a nice space to be in. I was upgraded to a suite at no extra cost, and the extra space and amenities was a real treat. I had my evening meal there. The food was delicious. The staff were all super friendly and helpful.
This property is an oasis in the middle of Columbo. It was serene in ambience and the staff were very helpful and accommodating. Highly recommend for those who appreciate art and a well decorated venue.
Hotel magnifique, vrai paradis vegetal au milieu de la ville.
Personnel tres acceuiilant et a l ecoute
Nous avons tres bien mangé (diner + petit dejeuner), les cocktails sont bons aussi
Notre seul regret est de ne pas etre restes plus longtemps
Amazingly decorated place - love it all. Huge home that has been converted to a small hotel. In a very quiet area. Great recommendations for food places - thanks. Staff are very relaxed and quite chilled. Room was adequate - comfy bed . Far too hot with mossie net lowered - even with fan and aircon on the room is quite warm making for restless sleep. Also organised a tour of the city for us.
