Negative: The problem was with mosquitoes and insects, and the owner of the place helped solve the mosquito problem, but he must find a solution for the glass doors to prevent insects from entering.

Positive: Staying at the Elegant Lake House was one of the best decisions I made on my trip to Sri Lanka. The house and rooms are beautifully decorated, and I know how much effort the whole family put in to making the place so homely. The view from the house is unbelievable, and boasted some of the best sunsets I have seen in Sri Lanka. The front garden also welcomes so much wildlife to watch, from Toucans to Water Monitors. But, without a doubt, the best thing about this property are the people. Randy was so helpful and kind, and his family are beautiful people (and make incredible food). Not only did Randy help me to book a safari, but he also took me to see the bats at night and on a tour of his home town. I was sad to leave but I will be sending my parents to this hotel when they visit later this year.
Negative: Nothing - everything was perfect.
Summary: Best place I have stayed in Sri Lanka !

Positive: Randimal, the owner,couldn't have been more accommodating. He made us welcome and nothing was too much trouble. The rooms were a good size with large windows and views of the garden. If you want to go to Yala Randimal can arrange it for you- our driver was called Nishanka and he made the safari amazing and was determined to show us as many animals as possible.
Negative: Nothing.
Summary: An amazing stay

Positive: The most unique feature is the hospitality of the host, Randy and his wonderful family. He's sincere and humble. Went out of his way to welcome us. Introduced us to locally made buffalo curd (yummy!) which is sold all over Sri Lanka. Also showed us his beautiful neighborhood. The room is clean, bright & spacious. The bed linen that were sewn by Randy's wife added a touch of homeliness. The divider in the bathroom helped keep the area outside the shower dry. In the morning, we could hear birds chirping, see squirrels scampering and buffalos walking past - a truly peaceful respite amidst nature.
Negative: None
Summary: Exceptional comfort and hospitality

Positive: Randimal's hospitality. He helped us with transportation, took us for a local foot walk around the area and organized an unforgettable safari trip to Yala. The most comfortable room we had on our 2-weeks trip to Sri Lanka. Everything was new and everything worked really well. Location is very picturesque, despite not being so popular among the tourists
Negative: No bad things to mention

Positive: This place is truly amazing. The family does everything to ensure your pleasant stay and the rooms are super clean and nice. The garden is beautiful and we just enjoyed sitting and relaxing there. They offer amazing things to discover but also feel free to say no, when you rather want to stay in. They offered amazing food and so much hospitality! Very grateful for the two nights we had there.
Summary: Amazing experience. 100% recommend.
