Excellent!

It was a big pleasure to have a stay at this house. The location and views are breathtaking, there was no morning or evening in this villa without saying 'oh what a beauty!'. The house is very clean and comfortable, kitchen is perfectly equipped. We had a time of our life here and for sure would come back. Thank you for our wonderful days here. Wish all the best to your family!

Schönes Haus mit fantastischer Aussicht. Man kann sich bei Bedarf von dem Verwalter Janaka bzw. seiner Frau lecker bekochen lassen, was in Anbetracht der abgelegenen Lage sehr angenehm ist.

ATT’s Eagle’s View Nest was intoxicating!
ATT’s Eagle’s View Nest was intoxicating!
The views, the food, the tranquility at the Eagle’s View Nest were everything we had been looking for and more. My wife and I had been to Sri Lanka once before for a weekend and we knew we wanted to come back. We had stayed north of Kandy last time and just happened upon the Eagle’s Nest View in our searches. We could not have found a better place. About an hour outside of Kandy, the location is breathtakingly beautiful. The back of the property looks over the hills and beyond. It was a bit rainy when we were there, but I love clouds and became quite familiar with them during our week there. The property has three patios: one glass enclosed, one open air, and the third on the second floor that is perfect for stargazing. The caretakers, Janaka and his wife, really deserve that name. He drove us where we wanted to go in his tuk-tuk (as well as to places we did not know about) and his wife fed us wonderful meals. The owners were very helpful and kept in touch to make sure we had everything we needed. All in all, we had a great time and I highly recommend this location.
