Set within 2.7 km of Kandy City Center Shopping Mall and 3.4 km of Bogambara Stadium, Galkaduwa360 Villa offers rooms with air conditioning and a private bathroom in Kandy. There is an in-house restaurant and free private parking. The homestay features mountain views, a picnic area and a 24-hour front desk. The view from the room was absolutely stunning. The property offers two types of rooms: one with a balcony and one without balcony but an extended front view. During our extended stay, we had the opportunity to experience both. Both rooms were immaculately clean, spacious, and featured king-sized beds that were extremely comfortable. The wooden chairs and tables added a charming touch, and the bathrooms were modern and well-maintained. The highlight of our stay was the host, Susantha. He is a genuinely kind and helpful person, always eager to assist with any needs. Beyond that, he’s an excellent cook! I highly recommend trying both breakfast and dinner—he’s happy to customize dishes to suit your preferences. Conveniently, there’s a grocery store right outside the property, along with a few nearby cafés. For even more options, the main market is just a 10-minute tuk-tuk ride away. If you enjoy outdoor activities, there are also several hiking spots in the area.

Conveniently set in the centre of Kandy, Namaya Nature is a recently renovated homestay, which provides free WiFi, a garden and free private parking for guests who drive. With garden views, this accommodation offers a balcony. The accommodation features a 24-hour front desk, a shared kitchen and luggage storage for guests. 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. ❤️

Ideally located in the centre of Kandy, Kande Home offers air-conditioned rooms with free WiFi and free private parking. The property has mountain and river views, and is 1.9 km from Kandy Museum. The accommodation features a shuttle service, while a bicycle rental service is also available.

At the homestay, units come with a desk. There is a seating and a dining area in all units. All units feature bed linen.

A car rental service is available at the 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.

This recently renovated guest house is located 2.6 km from Bogambara Stadium and 2.8 km from Sri Dalada Maligawa. Featuring family rooms, this property also provides guests with a terrace. The house is clean and fresh, a home away from home. Raj is a gem of a man! Knowledgeable and helpful in your needs.

The housekeeper he has is friendly and the breakfast is served with a smile and is finger licking good. If you need anything like you're laundry doing then the team are happy to help. I arrived drained and I left mystified! ✨️
