Couldn't recommend enough. This is a wonderful Home Stay with the most welcoming family. We felt right at home. We were welcomed with tea and the onsite bar was a lovely touch. The host was so helpful and would be a great guide for any tourist experiences. The chalet had everything we needed and was very comfortable. We had breakfast dinner and part took in a cooking class. Wonderful time, wonderful family. Must stay

I loved my stay at this place. I came here after a rough day and as soon as I arrived I forgot about it and felt very warm welcomed from this family. Everything is clean, the beadroom and washroom is big. There‘s also a terrace where you can enjoy sunset and the delicious breakfast and dinner (you can get it there for a good price and it’s homemade by the family). If you like nature and silence, this is the perfect place. The owner also helped me out to plan my next stepps and told me some nice places - thank you for that! I enjoyed my stay a lot and would hardly recommend this place - I would love to come back!

Ayesha prepared such a magnificent and large breakfast every morning, that we were able to take half of it for a packed lunch on our excursions. She made a huge effort to treat us to all the local dishes and added some Western food on the side. They really helped us to have a local experience by directing us how to use local buses and trains. Their house is large and spacious and we had a lot of privacy but also lots of valuable interaction. One of the highlights was the day when Shiva took us to Lion's Rock and afterwards took us for dinner to his family in a nearby village. All in all a wonderful experience and highly recommended.

Very clean and comfortable Villa. Located close to the botanical garden. The city centre however is a longer TukTuk-drive away. The staff is incredibly friendly and it is easy to relax in this calm environment. We totally recommend Aquahills

The family that lives here has been super kind to us, they have given us recommendations of places to visit and they have brought us closer to their culture.
