That I had to leave.

The best place I stayed during my 2-week holiday in Sri Lanka. The place was very clean and the AC worked perfectly. It's very close to the beach. The host is really nice; she takes care of you as if you were part of her family. She even welcomed me into her kitchen for lunch when I arrived in pouring rain and couldn't go out to a restaurant. Delicious and huge breakfast, with lots of fruit, toast, eggs, and homemade sweets. Excellent value for money.

Warm host who went out of her way to make us feel welcome. She allowed us to check in early. Superb breakfast, tasty and large. She prepared a lovely takeaway breakfast as we had to travel to the airport early the next day. Room was comfortable, good ac, ceiling fan, fridge and powerful shower. Location was superb, just back from the beach. The apartment had a lovely garden to eat breakfast. Everything was superb.

The host is really friendly, everything was super clean, exceptional breakfast, the room is really comfortable and clean, the location is waking distance to the beach! Good value for money! Wifi is available but it’s slow in general in that area I am sure it was highest possible speed. If I ever come back to Bentota I’ll definitely stay there!

Aayu's Guest is an excellent location, and the soul of this guesthouse is Aayu (the owner) who makes you feel at home, responsive to any request, very helpful, very friendly. The location is clean, close to the beach, a few minutes' walk away you can find places to eat and shop.

Absolutely nothing - it was perfect for our needs.

Aayu’s Guest is ideally located for the beautiful, sandy and clean Bentota beach and Bentota railway station. It is a 5 minute walk over the track from the guest house and onto the beach. Set in a very small and quiet settlement with just the rumble of the occasional train. The property is run by the lovely Aayu, a lady who is constantly smiling and so helpful in every respect. She is a very house-proud lady. The rooms and the property itself are immaculately clean with large beds and beautiful bathrooms with good showers. The beds have mosquito nets, not that we saw any of these creatures. Aayu’s breakfasts were superb. She varied the egg portion daily between scrambled and omelette, all very tasty. Ample toast, tea, coffee and fruit juice. The fruit platters for each person were huge and she insisted that, if we couldn’t eat it all, we save it for later in the day. Pineapple, star fruit, bananas, mango, papaya, mangosteen, lychee. Aayu’s pet dog is a very large and very friendly 2 year old German Shepherd who is called Brave - so you can be assured of total security which was not needed anyway. Aayu arranged our final transfer to Bandaranaike airport with a charming neighbour at a very reasonable price. We all thoroughly enjoyed our 4 day stay and I feel sure you would too if you booked this guest house. The warmth shown by Aayu to her guests is just wonderful.

Aayu is a very welcoming and friendly host. Her spotless, pretty guest house is five minutes from a fabulous beach and plenty of great restaurants by the railway line. The breakfast was delicious, we had eggs, toast and a huge plate of tropical fruit each. If you’re visiting Bentota, stay with Aayu.

The best place we stayed in Sri Lanka - the most lovely hosts, amazing home cooked meals and very comfortable accommodation. Just a 5 min walk from the beach with lots of great restaurant options close by! Highly recommend!!

We had the best stay so far in Sri Lanka for very honest price. Ayu is amazing. A shower curtain would keep the rest of the bathroom dryer and we are not fan of aquariums but this is personal preference.

Come visit Aayu's villa. You will be treated like royalty. Aayu is an outstanding host who goes above and beyond to make your stay perfect. Would definetely recommend to anyone. The villa is immaculately clean, European standards. Hot water, aircon, fan all working perfectly. Sheets smelling nice and fresh, soft towels. Breakfast is far the best we had in 2 weeks in Sri Lanka. The bed is actually king size with comfortable mattress. Can't recommend enough. Shortcut to the beach! Ayu also could organize the best river safary in few minutes and we got to see 3 crocos, 4 varans, many monkeys and giant bats.

What a wonderful place. We felt so welcome. The room was lovely and clean, and we had a quite large outdoor private area. The host is very friendly and serviceminded. She recommend the best restaurants and made good deals for us for tours and transport. The guesthouse is in a quiet area not far from the most wonderful beach you could imagine. You just have to go down the road, cross the railway at the station and go through the park....We highly recommend a stay and would gladly return of we came to the area again

In Srilanka everywhere I've stayed they dont service the rooms daily. This is still lanka as a whole and not a reflection on Aayi's guesthouse. I know she would if I asked but I didn't.

The host was fantastic..she was very welcoming very helpful..sorted out our laundry gave us advice on where to eat and what to pay for things..arranged tuk tuk whenever we wanted..came for 2 nights stayed for 4!! She even painted my toenails for me when I asked where to get them done locally. Short walk to fantastic beach and even shorter to a selection of restaurants. Such a clean beach and not overcrowded..good sea with no steep descents. Overall I loved it. Ps amazing friendly German shepherd dog who deserves a mention

Cute room with all the facilities. Safe for solo women travellers. The host is very warm and goes out of her way to make your stay super comfortable. She was available 24*7. When I forgot my travel pillow in the room, she offered to drive 100 km to bring it to me!

Aayu was the most lovely host, she couldn’t do enough for us. Provided us with recommendations, made us an amazing breakfast, she even drove all the way to Unawatuna when my boyfriend forgot his passport. Couldn’t recommend Aayu’s Guest more and would definitely return if we were in the area again. Also about a 5 minute walk from the beach and close to a number of different restaurants.

Nice standard room, fully equipped with all you need, incl. big bathroom, working AC and mosquito net. Breakfast was also very good. The host is very helpful (e.g. she accompanied me to a restaurant, because it was already dark). She makes sure you feel comfortable and have everything you need. Would definitely book again!
