Happy Man Village is the best place to enjoy the real Sri Lankan experience. In this family run structure is possible to enjoy amazing meals made of fresh products from their lands, simple cooked and delicious. The staff is going to propose several activities to do in the area, in this way there is no need to settle anything since everything will be managed from them simplyfing our life. We really enjoyed the catamaran safari and the boat trip in the river close to the village. But the best thing is the attention from the staff to the guests, always smiling and being available to any possible requests. A special mention needs to be done to the young Baba he was always available and ready to help, bringing us small treats like smoothies and cocount, at any time of the day and showing us nice landscapes spots, along with the cinnamon and wild plants and animals in the surroundings of the village. Located in the middle of Kosgoda village, here we found the most authentic feelings.

Beautiful family, very welcoming and very helpful. Drove me to the beach and went above and beyond for me. Dinner was incredible, only 3,000 rupees! Breakfast also lovely with a good pot of tea. Arranged a catamaran trip too which was super cheap and a nice thing to do. Room was great. No bug issues. Nothing extravagant definitely better than expected. Pool is also lovely.

We loved everything about the property, right from the check in, to check out.. the family who is running the property are exceptionally sweet and helpful. Food is so delicious and the rooms and facilities are mind blowing. It was like home away from home. Haven’t been so comfortable on any trip as much as we were at happy man village. Three cheers for Su & his family!! Very well kept property. Highly highly recommended!!

Room 10/10 (clean/spacious/comfortable bed) Bathroom 9/10 (clean/warm water) Dining area 10/10 (spacious/outdoor open to the garden) Swimming pool 10/10 Location 10/10 (quite place/near to kosgoda beach you can walk or ask them to drop you by tuk tuk) Family owners were very kind and won't let you feel uncomfortable they always approach you before you ask and will start conversations with you and make you feel like you are at home They have a wonderful river safari you can watch the local and the tropical immigrant birds and not to forget the breathtaking sunset (its a must to take the tour you wont regret it)

The room was big, but dark. You may open window shutters but it will become hot as there are no windowpanes. Breakfast was very good. There is a very big and nice swimming pool. I didn't like the location itself as it seems it doesn't offer basically any good dinner options in the close neighbourhood. The hotel offers a dinner option but in my option it is quite expensive, 10USD per person might be too much if you want to eat there every day. In general, very good but in my opinion too expensive for what it offers.

The swimming pool was clean and big. Staff, especially Baba, was so helpful and attentive. Women of the house were kind and hospitable. We liked the garden too. We rented a scooter from them as the location is a bit tricky.

Sulalitha and his entire family are great hosts, very helpful, discreet and authentic. The garden is well maintained and the bungalows are very spacious and clean. What stood out the most was the delicious food, cooked according to my spice tolerance and a highlight of my short stay was the sunset catamaran ride on the river. I was looking for nature, peace and tranquillity and this is exactly the place where to find it. Hope to come back again!
