It rained almost without stopping during our stay at Lake Cabin. However we had a happy time in the care of our excellent host who made us welcome and helped us find an excellent local place to eat as well as arranging a tour of the lake where we saw several elephants. There were good choices for breakfast. The lake view from the veranda was stunning with so many birds.

Really welcoming host, the rooms were immaculate, great hot showers, clean bathrooms, one of our favourite stays in a 5 week trip around Sri Lanka. The location and the great field views made it a fantastic place to stay while exploring the temple/ruins. Set back from the main road so it was quiet at night too. The food was absolutely amazing - the breakfast was huge and brilliant value for money at $3 each, don't miss out on the fantastic coconut and honey pancakes. We ate dinner here both nights of our stay and the amazing flavours and generous portions were better than a lot we have seen in restaurants on our travels. The spiced chicken/rice with all the sri lankan side dishes we had was lovely! The host is always there without being intrusive, happy to help book things if needed or just have a chat. Would thoroughly recommend staying here!

Sahan Guest House was an awesome find! The welcome was warm and genuine — I was even greeted with a refreshing welcome drink, which was a great touch after a long trip. The room was super clean, air-conditioned, and really comfortable. WiFi was fast and reliable, which was perfect for planning my day trips and staying connected. The location is perfect — right in the city, close to everything, and just a short ride to the ancient city. Super convenient if you’re exploring the cultural sites nearby. There’s also fast food and other restaurants nearby if you’re craving a quick bite. Honestly, the hospitality here is top-notch. Sahan and the team really care about their guests. I felt safe, relaxed, and very well taken care of. Highly recommended for anyone visiting the area!🍹🇻🇳

We arrived from Trincomalee via bus and tuk-tuk, and were welcomed very nicely by the host and his mother. We stayed in a spacious and spotlessly clean clay hut with good AC and a comfortable bed. There's a food lounge and plenty of cozy spots to hang out and read a book, plan your trip, or relax in a hammock or on one of the benches. The area is lovingly maintained. The food here is really, really good and very plentiful. It feels bad to leave any leftovers, but we couldn’t avoid it. Our plan for Polonnaruwa was tightly scheduled: visit the Ancient City in the afternoon, go on an elephant safari the following afternoon, and then head to Kandy. However, we had to change our plans when my wife fell ill with a stomach bug on the first evening. The hosts took great care of us, offering emotional support, helping us reschedule (extending our stay by a night, skipping the Ancient City, and postponing the safari), cooking stomach-friendly food for my wife, and giving us useful tips, telling stories, and introducing us to their local friends. All of this felt very genuine and special to us—we felt so very welcomed here. Thank you so much!
