I stayed here for two nights and had a truly pleasant and peaceful experience 😊. The property is clean 🧼, and the room was spacious and comfortable 🛏️. I was especially impressed by the beautifully designed bathroom 🚿✨. The location is also very convenient—just a short walk from Matara Railway Station 🚉. What truly made the stay exceptional was the hospitality of the hosts 🤗. The aunty and uncle who live next door are incredibly kind and always ready to help with a warm smile 🧓👵❤️. Their genuine care made me feel right at home 🏠. If you're visiting Sri Lanka 🇱🇰, especially the Matara area, I highly recommend staying here 🌟. Thank you for a wonderful experience! 🙏 धन्यवाद

The garden is crazy beautiful and peaceful, I could work outside with the sound or the birds or just chill in the hammock. The kitchen amenities are very superior to anywhere I've stayed in Sri Lanka. Oven is something very rare to find but here they have a good one! Also toaster, stove, kettle, mixer and even coffee grinder... Also, there's a clothing washing machine and washing powder , so I could wash my clothes by myself. 1min walk from a little perfect beach for a quick swim or watch the sunset. Loved it! Everything was clean and the owner and worker are super nice and helpful!

Wonderful Stay at SithRu Villa – Highly Recommended! We originally planned to stay just 2 nights at SithRu Villa in Matara, but we ended up extending my stay to 4 nights because the experience was so great! A special thank you to Mr. Mangala, the manager, who made my stay truly enjoyable. He was incredibly helpful and kind – he arranged a van with a very nice and reliable driver so I could explore Matara and the surrounding areas comfortably. It made a big difference in my trip. Mangala also helped me order delicious breakfasts and dinners, which I really appreciated. The food was tasty and freshly prepared, and the service was always warm and welcoming. The hotel itself is clean, peaceful, and beautifully maintained. The rooms are spacious and comfortable, and the overall atmosphere is relaxing – a perfect escape from the busy city life as I live in sjngapore with my family . If you’re visiting Matara, I highly recommend staying at SithRu Villa. The hospitality and service, especially from Mr. Mangala, made this one of the best parts of my trip. I’ll definitely return again!

Extremely Pleasant Stay! I received a warm welcome with flowers, and the welcome drink made from the garden was fabulous. I stayed two nights at Sheru Guest in Matara, and it truly felt like home. The owner and their family were very friendly and helpful. The Wi-Fi was excellent, and the place was calm and quiet — perfect for relaxing. The guesthouse has everything you need, including a kitchen and washing machine. It's also conveniently located near the Nilwala River and its mouth, and just a short distance to Polhena and Madiha beaches. Highly recommended for a peaceful and comfortable stay!

I recently stayed at Shady Homestay Hiriketiya and had a wonderful experience. The homestay offers a cosy and comfortable atmosphere with all the essential amenities, making it a perfect choice for a relaxing getaway. The rooms were clean and well-maintained, providing a homely feel. The owner was friendly and accommodating, always ready to assist with any needs. The location is convenient, close to local attractions and transportation. While the facilities are not highly luxurious, they are more than sufficient for a pleasant stay, offering good value for the price. Overall, I highly recommend Shady Homestay Hiriketiya to anyone looking for a comfortable and welcoming place to stay.

    The villa and pool is gorgeous, with stunning views of the ocean. The beds, rooms and kitchen were well stocked with good bedding and kitchen supplies. The caretaker was very helpful with meeting us and showing us where everything was and how to use all the facilities. The restaurants are not close by, but it is a very quick drive or a 15min walk away and not as busy as the surfer town of Hiriketiya.
