We had an excellent stay! The home was walkable to supermarkets, fast food outlets, shopping etc, super comfortable when we were inside any weather. The kitchen had everything we needed, and we felt super relaxed very much home atmosphere. A great stay!
Thank you so much for offering your beautiful home as our vacation was perfectly spend. Special thanks to the caretaker and the house manager always there to help. What more could you ask for? It felt like a little home away from home. We canât wait to come back!
I Highly recommend for the hassle free vacation.
Overall this beautiful property is great to stay long & enjoy. Simultaneously this property definitely needs UPGRADING & assure 100% PRIVACY of the guests.
The garden in the photos looks lovely, but in REALITY it has lost lot of that beauty, itâs mostly lawned now. The cement wall & the front gate were not that tall & 1 side of the front fence & the back garden rear fence were wire fences only, the front wire fence only has bushes to cover it for privacy but not for the back rear wire fence. We were in a way deceived by the photos! Therefore, those old photos must be updated to show todayâs real status of the garden/walls/veranda & all corners of the property!
The caretaker Velu lives in the same property with us outside in a room in the garage where the washing machine is, he looked after all our needs & generously provided us whatever grows in the garden-breadfruit & coconuts were great! The property manager Chaminda lives next door was helpful & runs to our property uninvited to chat about matters in person. Note the manager has direct side access from his neighboring house into this property. If you want 100% privacy in the property then you must tell him STRICTLY not to enter your property unless you call him for help!
The heat in this house is unbearable & ACs are only in the bedrooms, the lounge has just a single slow roof fan, kills you! It definitely needs AC, same as veranda needs fixing few speedy wall fans, else one canât sit & enjoy the beauty of the nature at any time, especially in the evening when the mosquitoes come! We only open 1 lounge window for the entire house with a closed curtain throughout fear of mosquitoes & flies & closed it at 4pm else mosquitoes will suck our sleep all night!
The kitchen is large, modern & has most of the things there to cook & serve. But some of the kitchen utensils are poor. We stopped using the white pans in the kitchen immediately as they are not healthy at all to cook & eat as they quickly burn the food & spread smoke everywhere, so we had to buy our own utensils. Chamindaâs mother also provided us few good pots & pans. Also we bought laundry bin etc..
Light switches are in odd places throughout this house! Those for the lounge were far away from front entrance, so for an emergency or after a night out one must walk searching for switches, very annoying & scary to walk into the dark.
We had a family gathering during our stay, the children & the elderly thoroughly enjoyed the time & space.
Brilliant (owners donât bother you & extremely helpful). They go out of there way to help you

Wunderbar! FĂŒhlten uns wie zu Hause
Das Haus ist sehr gerĂ€umig und ausgestattet mit Allem was man braucht. Auf der sehr groĂen ĂŒberdachten Terrasse kann man wunderschön im liebevoll angelegten Garten den ganzen Tag drauĂen sitzen. Die Lage des Hauses ist in einer schönen, ruhigen Gegend und trotzdem sehr nah der Innenstadt. Zu FuĂ sind Supermarkt (1 Min.) und gute Restaurants gut zu erreichen.
-Die Angaben im Inserat sind korrekt (der Garten ist viel schöner als auf den Fotos ; )
-Das Haus war sehr sauber
-Die Betreuung vor Ort von Hausmeister und Hausverwalter war ĂŒberaus zuvorkommend und hilfsbereit. FĂŒhlten uns sehr gut aufgehoben.
-Panadura ist ein wunderbares Ziel fĂŒr Reisende die mal entspannt zu lokalen Preisen das authentische alltĂ€gliche Stadtleben erleben möchten. Wir können hier leider nicht mit Ausflugstipps dienen, da wir mit 2 keinen Kindern das Haus in vollen ZĂŒgen genossen haben.
Panadura ist sehr gut mit der Bahn erreichbar.
-Sehr gut mit kleinen Kindern
-GroĂe Duschkabinen : )
