    A dream accommodation in the middle of a garden, a delicious breakfast (both traditional and western), the first place with hot water after a week in SL, warm and smiling people. We also received help to organize a safari in Minneriya Park. In short, an involved family! Thank you!

    The best and loving family of our trip in Sri Lanka. We enjoyed the stay, breakfast and a couple of times a delicious diner and would definitely stay here again. The family is superfriendly (daughter joined us to the hospital to help us out). Thanks for having us and good luck with your exams and study!

    There was not anything I could fault with this property and the family.

    The family as a whole made us feel very welcome and were extremely helpful when booking different activities around Sigirya. On top of that, the home cooked meals were some of the best we’ve had since we started travelling.

    There was a smell like damp in the room. We had to open our door occasionally to ventilate the room, but we still could not get rid of the smell.

    The owners' communication and help with the organization of our overall trip was good. Price/performance was good

    The good shower can be more better.

    It is a property run by a nice family. They were really welcoming. We were thoroughly taken care of. Thru, the son even took us for a safari in his Jeep for a reasonable price. If we ever come back to Sigiriya, we will definitely stay here again.

    The staff was great but not very present within our stay. Unfortunately our room had only one problem which was the fact that our windows didn’t close letting all the mosquitoes in.

    We had a great stay here. The environment around the room was absolutely stunning and our room was comfortable.

    Might be a bit hard to reach without your own vehicle (especially at night), but taxis are around and I bet the owners will help you out with this!

    Amazing room, clean and a nice (warm) shower! The bed was big and comfortable. No AC but the large ceiling fan made it quite chilly at night. The family is super lovely and we did the Safari tour with them. Good experience and would recommend everyone to stay here!

    The most enjoyable homestay ever (and we had some other very nice ones in Sri Lanka and Cuba). A positive atmosphere and extremely nice hosts: friendly and helpfull. They also took care of transport. The location is good; we stayed here as homebase to visit the Sigiryia Rock, Dambulla and Polonnaruwa. Excellent food - tasty, healthy and affordable. So far unsurpassed at the island, not in homestays nor in restaurants. We booked the "family room", which was very spacey.

    Hosts were a lovely family! Great breakfast in the mornings! The room was what we expected basic but all we needed! Tharu the son took us on an amazing safari for a great price, we were so lucky to see 50+ elephants including many baby’s, all because of his knowledge of the park!

    We had the most lovely 3 nights at Jaana Guest. Jaana and his wife were so welcoming and kind, they made delicious breakfast and dinner for us everyday. The room was so spacious, comfortable and clean and we had a lovely porch outside with a little table where we would eat. Location is lovely and quiet and an easy short tuk tuk ride or 30 minute walk into town which is a lovely walk to! Their son did the best elephant safari for us also so make sure to ask about that!! Thank you for an amazing stay!

    We loved our room and outside patio where we ate a most exceptional meal made by Jaana. All his family were wonderful and his son organised us transport to the rock for sunrise and later he tool us a nearby reserve where we saw dozens of elephants. A very special place.

    We loved our stay at Jaana Guest! The room was big and spotlessly clean, and the surrounding garden is beautiful and full of birds. Jaana and his wife prepared us a tasty breakfast every day. We also ordered rice and curry one evening and it was delicious! Jaana and his family are lovely people who made us feel at home. This is a great place to stay in Sigiriya!

    The bathroom window did not have a mesh so big insects and frogs made their way in.

    In a beautiful secluded location the owners are a lovely family that are extremely welcoming and helpful. The mothers cooking is amazing and the son is a very good tuk tuk driver, he took us on a lovely morning outing to pidurangala rock and then to a stunning view point after. We will remember that experience forever. Would 100% return if we ever come again.
