    If you aren’t into dogs don’t come here! Pretty obvious, but you cannot avoid them, they are apart of the family here! A little way to get into Ahangama main town, so you have to get a tuk tuk. But plenty of local shops nearby. Kitchen wasn’t the easiest to use, but we only made tea (don’t plan to cook that much if you stay here)

    Betta is an incredible woman, and host with such a warm heart! I love dogs, so being surrounded by 5 dogs was amazing for me, so comforting. It is hard to explain how homely Frida House was for us, the interior design was stunning, with all the art work and lamps! The outside area was so comfy, and the outside showers were great. Loads of space if you have a bike / car. Location was fantastic for us, we went to Ahangama for TRAX (which is a 8 minute walk from here, and a fantastic venue!) and it was close to Koggala Lake. Betta was so accommodating with us going out and staying out late (we were out until early morning, and she made it so the dogs wouldn’t be disturbed in the night) Gave us great food recommendations, and she also does yoga clases if you are interested. I miss the dogs all so much, they all have great personalities, and it was so comforting. I will 100% come back here when in Ahangama!

    Loved our stay here! The dogs are so so adorable. Also the host is so lovely and caring. She borrowed us some snorkeling equipment, gave us recommendations for restaurants and helped with tips when I got bitten by a dog (to be clear: it was not one of her dogs!!! It was a random dog from the streets, I was just unlucky).

    Beautiful and nice place

    The bedroom had some mould, not sure if this is normal in Sri Lanka, I know it rained a lot just before I arrived. The bathroom was separated from the room and I didn't want to shower there as there were so many mosquitoes inside. A bit overpriced, but maybe because I am a solo traveller.

    The place is beautiful, huge room and bed is also really big and comfortable, with a lot of pillows. Betta, the owner, was really kind. The location is great, is like 20 mins walk to the beach, and the area is really nice and quiet. Some nice tips from the owner also to move around.

    Loved everything about this place, cosy vibes, attention to detail, and a chill atmosphere. Cleanest spot I've hit up in Sri Lanka. Big shoutout to the dog crew,got their own personalities and they're sweet as. If you're crashing here, gotta dig dogs 'cause they're treated like fam, in and out, with occasional barks during the day, but they crash elsewhere at night. Shower's top notch, especially the outdoor setup. The chill outdoor area is prime for hanging or grubbing. It's like a tight knit fam vibe, guests are cool. Got kitchen access, but I'd splurge on the owner's bomb vegan pancakes for brekkie, extra cost but worth it! Perfect spot location-wise, close to all the good spots in Ahangama and a hop away from the beach. Highly recommend!

    The owner has 5 dogs. We love dogs, but if you’re less into dogs or need a rest, this might not be the place for you

    Price vs quality is very good. It’s comfortable and has all you need. The owner is lovely and the place looks very nice

    It was perfect!

    I loved this place, so cosy and I loved the dogs, 5 of them, so friendly and cuddly, I loved the big garden and the outside area, the rooms are super clean and very cute, shower is really good. The decoration is amazing and the host is lovely, we even went out for dinner the last night. You can use the kitchen for very cheap rate and enjoy a shower outside. The location is perfect, close to all cool places.

    Having to leave :-(

    Breakfast was amazing, very nice fresh local fruit with delicious curd and honey, all made with a very cute presentation flower and all, toasts, jam, butter, bans and egg of choice. The house is so welcoming, the decoration is wonderful, I am into art and creativity so I loved everything about it. It also has that sophisticated but colourful bohemian touch, a mix of mediterranean and Indian look. All is inspired by nature and the ones of the most popular female artists in history. The attention to details is also something we were stroke about it. The owner, Betta was very accommodating although she had to finish the last few jobs in the house, she never stopped asking us what we needed and made a huge effort to make us feel comfortable. Anything that was missing and we asked was done in a swift! The rooms were very cleaned and the smell when ee checked in was so pleasant. The bed is super comfy also is a king-size which we don't have in our house so that was a treat. The little garden café is so nice, we been eating nice pasta made by Betta and have to say she add her Italian touch to it. The menu is on the process so we were asking what to eat and they were cooking it. The area, which is only 850 mt from the sea, is very good, it is away from main road, so very quiet and the .neighbourhood is very nice, there are a few shops around too. Lots of restaurants and bars literally 5 min away. The old man working there is so polite and has perfect English he was a real gentleman, very polite and continously asking us what we wanted, very cute!!! We gave him a nice tip at the end. Well what to say we did not want the hotel dimension and we did not want the villa where you have to do the cooking and all this was perfect a little guesthouse/home with a warm, cozy and welcoming feel. Highly recommended.
