The main attraction of our property is the location. We are centrally located by being close to the beach, the main road leading to Colombo and Puttalam, the railway station, Super markets,the bus terminal and all other major tourist attractions in Negombo. Our homestay is a comfortable one where travelers could lay back and enjoy their stay. The room is Air conditioned and has an en suite bathroom with hot water. There are all facilities at the home stay such as free WiFi , cable TV in the lounge. a computer for use. free use of bicycles and so on. We also undertake Airport transfers if required at a reasonable price. As I am a full time Tour operator I also arrange tours for guests and also do day excursions to all the tourist attractions around the country. We have a tour desk at the home stay where your tours can be discussed and arranged. You can visit our website for more information on tours. We like meeting different people from all over the world, to get to know their cultures and values etc. and showing them what true Sri Lankan hospitality is. We look forward to being of service to you.

Nishantha , is tour operator by profession who loves meeting people of all nationalities. Loves listening to music and travel. Being helpful in all travel related matters is his passion.

Our neighborhood is predominantly Catholic but there are a few Buddhists, Hindus and Muslims too. You could call it a typical multi ethnic neighborhood. Our property is close to the main road but as we are located a little further interior, the neighborhood is very quiet. Just out side our home, in 2 minutes you can visit a stretch of different variety of local restaurants where you could find a hearty meal at very reasonable prices. Being at our home stay you will never be hungry at any time of the day as these places are open 24/7.
