This is such a beautiful place. Location is so pretty and near a stunning beach. The rooms are lovely. Clean and extremely comfortable. Delicious food. Kind, thoughtful, helpful staff. Nishanthi & Wasantha made this such a memorable stay for me. Nishanthi made me feel so welcome and at home. Wasantha was a perfect guide helping me explore and taking me to lovely places to see.

Everything was perfect

Beautiful room and lovely little touches such as welcome drink, garlands and just wonderfully accommodating hosts who were excellent.

Please please do yourself a huge favor and just simply book this Absolutely Lovely, Spotlessly CLEAN and the Most Amazing Stay of your life. I mean it when I say that! Everything about our stay was Perfect. The ROOM was beautifully decorated and the mattress sooo comfortable. I slept like a baby! The WASHROOM was beyond Clean with modern fittings. The BREAKFAST was scrumptiously Delicious and you will be spoilt for options. Both Western and Sri Lankan yummy yummy dishes included. The Hosts are so kind-hearted and genuine that one wants to maintain lifetime friendship with them after spending just few minutes being in their company. All I can say is - One of our Best Stays ever!!

That why didn’t I book this Wonderful Guest House for more nights. Big regret!

Nishanti and Wasanthe went far and beyond and did everything to make us feel cozy and at home. They made us breakfast packs when we needed to leave very early, and their breakfast was excellent! The place was very clean and with good smell. Thank you Nishanti and Wasanthe!

Excellent breakfast, clean room and shower

The beach nearby is a bit dirty

We received a very friendly welcome on arrival along with flowers and a king coconut drink. Hosts were all very friendly and helpful and went out of their way to cater for dietary requirements, unlike a lot of other places. Breakfast was excellent and they even provided enough for a snack later. Hosts were very attentive and informative about things to do in the area. Location is right next to the beach (slightly out of town) and beach towels were even provided. The facilities listed for the room matched what was provided. Highly recommended and we would gladly go back as you are made to feel right at home.

What an wonderful stay we had in the Sri Lancashire Guest House. Nisanthi and Wasantha have both been the mast amazing hosts with such genuine smiles, warmth and love. They have made this stay very special indeed. We felt like family, this felt like home! We’ve been travelling in Asia since December and this truly is the loveliest hotel, with the TASTIEST breakfasts, extra snacks, gorgeous room, colour changing towels the utimate welcome drink. We also appreciated the extra effort helping take us to get our laptop fixed and effortesty delivering gluten free food- such a rare treat! This place really is specal- as are the hosts

The only thing I could recommend is having a water refilling station to reduce plastic waste and use non plastic straws. Other than that, everything was impeccable

Great stay, nicely decorated room on beach side.

Locality.. eco-friendly and far from the city.. beautiful House near to the beach

Local market has limited vegetarian stuffs

We originally planned to stay for one night, but we enjoyed it so much that we extended our stay. We felt very comfortable thanks to the warm and friendly family who welcomed us. We were impressed by how they greeted us: they gave us flower necklaces and treated us to fresh coconuts. We also loved the atmosphere in the room where we stayed: everything was decorated with flowers and smelled of jasmine. We enjoyed spending time on the cozy and spacious terrace, and the breakfasts were very delicious and filling. The beach was clean, and there was a wonderful restaurant nearby where we had a great time. We appreciated the free tuk-tuk transfer service to and from the restaurant provided by the family. We will definitely recommend this place to our friends and hope to return again. We wish the family who hosted us all the best!

The best breakfast I ever had

I was afraid to swim in the ocean because of the strong waves, nobody was swimming there

Dear Nishanthi and Wasantha. You are the greatest hosts we’ve ever met! All the credit for our amazing holiday must be given to you as it was the first place we stayed during our travel, and the vibe you shared with us didn’t leave us up to the last day in Sri Lanka. Your attitude is incredible. We felt like being at home. The way you met us the first day (with flower garlands which smelled like heaven), the way you treated us during the stay (ready to help with literally anything we needed) - everything breathed love at your house. Your attitude really exceeds all the expectations. To those who are considering a stay at the place, please, don’t hesitate. This is going to be an eye-opening experience to what a 10 out of 10 is. No, this can’t be 10. We would give the hosts 10 times more if it was possible❤️. As for the cleanliness - it was incredibly spotless. This was the cleanest place we had ever visited throughout all our journeys. As for the breakfasts - oh, this was something unbelievable. Everything was so tasty, served so neatly. And the balcony, where our breakfasts were served, overlooks the lovely garden, so you can see some lovely birds, squirrels and enjoy the sounds of them while having your breakfast. They give you a small bag where you can put whatever you haven’t eaten, so you can take it with you to the beach or put it in the fridge (the room facilities are also provided) and eat it later. Another thing, which is worth mentioning, is the fresh flowers arranged around the room and on the balcony. So the place smelled so fresh, so nice. You can really see that they pay great attention to detail. Regarding the beach, it’s a three-minute walk from the house and you are going to be really surprised in a good way as it is not crowded at all and, as a result, very clean. So you can enjoy your time at the beach with no plastic thrown around it. There are also good cafes along the beach with quite affordable prices.

I spent a week at that wonderful place in March 2023 and cannot find enough words of praise. Nishanti and Wasantha are perfect hosts, very personable, always helpful and their place is breathing this love for pleasing their guests from every corner. Sri Lancashire Guesthouse is meticulously clean, the rooms are very comfortably furnished with all the space one needs for keeping the belongings and spacious enough to give the feeling of home away from home. The bathroom also offers enough spaces to keep your things. Potted plants and flowers are everywhere, the decorations very tasteful and authentic Sri Lankan. The service offered is outstanding, starting from the best breakfast I have ever had in a guesthouse, and I have had a number in six journes to that beautiful island. Certainly enough for two meals, at minimum. You get a bag to take leftovers (which even I, being a very good eater could not avoid) to the beach or your tour of the day, or keep in the little fridge for an evening snack. There also is a kitchen guests may use. When you come home in the evening, incence sticks and moscito coils are already burning on your balcony, allowing for undisturbed hours outside after sunset. Whatever you need, wherever you want to go - Nishanti and Wasantha are there to help and support. I should also mention the very friendly team that helps serving the breakfast and keeping the place so clean and nicley decorated. Sri Lancashire Guesthouse is one of the best experiences I have had so far, and I will do my very best to return. I am hesitantly sending this review - if more people make the same experience and return, Nishanti and Wasantha will be booked solid for a long time.

Having said all that, I should also mention that with open windows, you do hear not only the birds and some chanting from the nearby temple, but also the road and train traffic as the guesthouse is situated between the tracks and the old main road from Colombo to Galle. I got used to it very quickly and still slept with open windows. Once you close them, you hardly hear anything.

Firstly for anyone considering a trip to Sri Lanka do not hesitate to visit. in all our years of extensive travel, this is the most fantastic of places , with the most friendliest of people. We have had the most amazing holiday and credit must be given to the wonderful people at Sri Lancashire guest house . Prior to arriving we had numerous email dialogue with Nishanthi and Wasantha who put together a fantastic 2 week tour itinerary. We toured Sri Lanka extensively in a private car with our excellent driver Ari . The cost of this bespoke tour was considerably cheaper than any package and more importantly it was personal and tailor made .. Now to Sri Lancashire Guest House… just amazing ! The welcome from the outset was unbeatable .. when we left, it was like saying goodbye to friends and family . The room was very big with a wrap around balcony where a delicious breakfast was served .. very personal . The property is spotlessly clean .. the cleanest throughout our trip . Thank you so so much to Nishanthi, Wasantha, Sanjeeva and Niana. Your kindness and hospitality made our trip so special. We will undoubtedly return ! Do not hesitate to book this lovely place .

This place is absolutely magical. We were fascinated from the first minutes of meeting the owners. I will say without delay that this is the best accommodation not only in Sri Lanka, but also in 10 years of our travels around the world. We have never met such a cordial attitude. We felt like we were in a family, not just in a hotel. I felt that Nishanti was like a Sri Lankan mom to me :) When we faced the problem of exchanging money, they helped us and even offered to give us money if we needed it! It's incomprehensible.. We were so touched. As for the accommodation, everything was impeccable, the room was spacious and decorated with great taste and amazing cleanliness. The pleasant fragrance of incense that I took with me, and now I remember with trepidation and nostalgia our stay in the house of Nisanti and Wasantha.. Separately, I want to mention the breakfasts, they were huge and infinitely delicious! Again, this is better than the 5-star hotels that we also happened to visit during our trip. I just want to thank you again for everything

Absolutely nothing

Outstanding place Excellent breakfast Kind hosting family. Very kind morning waiter. Excellent English speakers...an opportunity to chat about lot of subjects. They really care for your comfort. Every amenity has a special touch , from flowers to napkins. Provided also assistance for shopping, dinner, trips and airport transfer. Quite location away from mass tourism buzz but tuk-tuk transport free of charge. Hope to come again. Thanks a lot!!

Nothing. Nothing bad to say.

The best start in Sri Lanka. I am happy that I found this great accommodation, definitely I will come here again. Early in the morning I was so kindly picked up by Wasantha at the airport in Colombo, felt immediately well taken care of. Then I was so warmly welcomed by Nashanthi and her mother at Sri Lancashire. The place, the location, the staff simply a dream. And the breakfast, I can hardly put it into words, you have to experience it yourself, I still dream about it now.

Honestly, I have no idea what could be done better. I wish for Sri Lancashire that they always have enough guests and that this beautiful place may give joy and peace to many people.

This is THE BEST guest house ever! Nishanti and Wassantha gave us a lot of good emotions. Very tasty breakfasts, chill location with EMPTY beach. Only you❤️ The best location to start or finish your trip to Sri Lanka. Wasantha made for us some excursions and we had a small tuc tuc ride to local market to buy some fruits and clothes. Wasantha also organized for us river safari with a good price! And told about fancy restaurants Cleanliness is 10 of 10! Flowers and elephant from towels are crush❤️🥰🫰🏻

Nothing to mention

A lovely Guest House for quiet and relaxing stay. Very clean, very comfortable, very stylish. Wonderful breakfast, probably the best in Sri Lanka :) Located near the beach (across the road) where we could use sunbeds free of charge. Guest House provided beach towels as well. We liked everything and enjoyed every minute of our stay over there. Thank you!

super beautiful clean interior, friendliest & extreamly helpful hosts, delicious breakfast in rich variety

everything was perfekt

The guest house is run by a very nice couple). they met me very well, told me everything, took me to the sea and to a restaurant. It was very cozy and comfortable. + Very good and hearty breakfast. Even got a gift for Christmas) The sea is super close, there is a small restaurant on the shore, you can use sun loungers for free.

It’s the best place ever in Sri Lanka! Nishanthi and Wasantha are so kind and generous persons! Nishanthi cooks so delicious breakfasts. Wasantha arranged two interesting tours - to turtles farm and safari in Bentota river. Also Wasantha can drive you by his tuk-tuk wherever you want. Wasantha picked up me from the airport to guest house and also back from guest house. the room is so clean and beautiful, cleaning every day the beautiful beach and ocean are very close to guest house, you can see nice sunset every day and take beautiful photos I will definitely return to Nishanti and Wasantha again thank you very much ❤️

all was so perfect

From the fresh flowers on arrival to the glorious breakfast each day, Nishanti and Wasantha's guest house cannot be faulted. As well as Tuc-Tuc rides and great recommendations for dinner I was personally shown the beach area which is a beautiful little place where most times you are on your own, apart from one or two fisherman along the stretch. The beach is literally around a minute to get to. Always happy to please and eager to do more my hosts made me really look forward to my next trip and staying here again.

As I mentioned in their guest book, everything was perfect! Nishanthi and Wasantha are great hosts and made my stay unforgettable: the warm welcome, the room, all the flowers, the delicious breakfasts, the rides in tuk-tuk, the attention to details... I really felt like home and would like to go back one day! Thank you :)

The arrival was already very warm with a flower necklace and coconut. Our hosts were all the time so kind and drove us to dinner or showed us the beach for example even brought us to the city while curfew so we can shop a postcard. The room was very clean and good smelling. Can’t say anything bad. We wish we could have stayed longer!

Delicious food The owners are kind generous people. I was ill when I arrived and they cared for me like I was there father, supplied lunch and organised dinner for no extra charge. The Welcome, room, cleanliness better than 5*hotel

NOTHING ALL PERFECT

Absolutely one of the nicest places we’ve stayed during our travels of Sri Lanka! The owners/staff are just lovely, the room was beautiful. We received a flower necklace and a decorated coconut drink upon arrival, and a little gift souvenir during our stay! The breakfast was amazing, and huge: we brought a good amount of it with us as a packed lunch. If we’re ever in the area again we will certainly stay here again, and you should as well!

Nishanti and Wasantha are the kindest people! Their hospitality is exceptional, they really care about their guests! I felt so welcomed from the first second and the two made me feel like home. Wasantha took me to town and to dinner with his tuktuk whenever I needed - and this free of charge! The room was so nice, super clean and lovely decorated like in the pictures, with such an eye for details like everything else in the guesthouse. Breakfast was just amazing too! They even offered me a fruit plate and juice when I wasn't even a guest anymore. I was just amazed by their kindness and hospitality and will definitely come back to their guesthouse if I should ever return to Bentota! Thanks so much again for everything, Nishanti and Wasantha!!

There's really nothing not to like!

absolutely adorable couple running the place. this was the most luxurious room for the price we payed. it was tremendously clean, we got a free coconut as a welcoming drink. the weather was terrible but the beach is very nice to walk on. definitely worth a stay for one or more nights, the beach is right across the street. can only recommend - come here!!!

Sri Lancashire Guest House was our best stay. Everything was exactly as advertised or even better. Exceptional breakfast every day with extra Sri-Lankan pastry for lunch. Private beach is just across the street. The staff (Nishanthi and Wasantha) were always eager to answer any questions and help in every way (even after we left the place!).
