The brand new hotel is about 50 meters from the main road and about eight minutes by tuk-tuk from the lake. I was warmly welcomed with a cold towel and a drink. The room was small and chic the bed large and comfortable, the bathroom, very large with good water pressure and very modern . The hotel restaurant is not yet open. My room was on the corner facing the street and was a bit noisy, especially later in the evening and early in the morning. Noises and door slamming from the hallway are unfortunately transmitted very well into the room. The windows don't seem to offer any noise protection either. but i had Oropax!!! That's a bit of a shame. Nevertheless, I give the hotel full marks, I felt very comfortable, slept well and was looked after very nicely. Many thanks to all the staff

Our 3-day stay at this villa was truly unforgettable, mainly because of the amazing host, Aunty Thennakoon. From the moment we arrived, she greeted us with love and said, “Stay like your home and walk anywhere.” And honestly, we felt exactly that just like home. She was incredibly kind, helpful, and treated us like her own children. She even let us use her personal kitchen to cook our meals. She prepared a delicious homemade breakfast, beautifully presented and served with love. The place itself is very beautiful and peaceful, surrounded by nature. It was the perfect spot to relax and enjoy quiet moments. The atmosphere was calm and felt very safe. More than just a stay, this was a heartwarming experience. Aunty Thennakoon’s exceptional hospitality made it special. We had lovely conversations with her, just like with a close relative. And created memories we’ll never forget. Thank you so much, Aunty Thennakoon. We will always remember you with love. ❤️

I extremely recommend this place. The rooms were clean and the food was so tasty. The owner Sandy super friendly and helpful with everything you need. She helped us to find a TukTuk for really early in the morning although there was elections and more important she had some private issues, I hope this was not our last time at Kandy Living Villa & Homestay.

The couple who manages the house is one of the best I've ever met. She's a 5 star cook, gentle and careful like a mum. He's super kind, he gave me all the information I needed and he also gave me a ride to the center of the city.

    Of all the locations in Kandy, this hotel is fantastic. A tiny walk from the entrance to the Temple of the Tooth makes it ideal for a tourist stay. Very affordable. Rooms are small. Kind Sri Lankan service as was experienced throughout the whole country.
