Absolutely everything. Of particular mention are the little things like while at night I am sitting alone in the very comfortable lounge watching TV and the host brings a hot cup of coffee.

This is a very welcoming place. The owner is really good and took a really good care of their guests! Keep asking if i have problems or not. That’s really nice! Ordered fish curry for dinner and it was really delicious and for that portion, the price is pretty cheap. They can arrange pickup from the train station. The room is really spacious for family up to 5 people! I was alone so i got all the 3 queen beds for myself lol the famous lover’s leap waterfall located just less than 2km from the house. I really recommend this stay!

Amazing place! The accommodation was clean and beautiful. Rajith was super nice and helped us organising our days in Nuwara Eliya. He even prepared us the breakfast to take away for the trekking. The location is 10 min by tuk tuk from the city centre.

Cleaning, international standard, food quality, hospitality, helpfulness of the two young boys, room amenities, comfy bed and everything. We took the double deluxe room thinking it’s one bed. If possible add a bit more details in the room section.

We loved our stay at the cabana, the hosts, mother and son are lovely, the dinner and breakfast are homecooked by the hostess and it might be the best food we ate here! The cabana is very cute and cozy, overall 10/10

A recently renovated homestay situated in Nuwara Eliya, woods hut features a garden. The property has garden and city views, and is 4.9 km from Gregory Lake.

Put aside a few of your western standards and you will have a magnificent time at Woods hut with hosts Wasantha and Chithra; and of course Rashi, their son. They are really helpful in organising trips, predicting the weather (which is very useful in this sometimes cloudy/rainy area) and Chitra makes you a perfect dinner! Or if you like, you can go to the cafe, a 5 min walk, where you can play some pool and join a jam session.

Incredibly lovely and warm host family. We were greeted by Ajith and Priya with tea and biscuits and immediately connected with the family and the other guests. In the evening they cooked the most delicious dinner for us and the breakfast was really yummy with different local specialties. We learned many facts about the current situation in Sri Lanka which was really interesting. The big room we slept in was recently renovated, we got two warm blankets and there was even a hairdryer and a place to prepare tea which was super nice as it gets cold in the evenings. Thank you for making us feel welcome in your home! I can truly recommend AGP Home.
