I stayed with Nala and his lovely family when i got high fever and missed my flight. Being sick in a foreign country can be really scary but Nala and his family made me feel home and part of them. Thanks for taking good care of me and providing me everything I needed and the best food also :) the rooms are super clean with big bathrooms and equipped with A/C and a fan. You can see monkeys playing around from time to time and the beautiful jungle beach is just around the corner. Great homestay if you are planning on going surfing!

Amazing stay in a beautiful place close to nature! I loved the fact that the house was build around a tree as it is so special! The host and his family are super nice and accommodating! Really worth it!

There is no better way starting your Sri Lanka journey at Nala’s House. The local family is zo warm and welcoming and the place wonderful. Amazing to woke up by monkeys and squirrels living in the trees around the house. I would really recommend this place, it touched my heart!

I had the pleasure of staying at Nalaka Relaxing Homestay this surfing season. Nala and his family are the most gracious hosts, they treated me as part of the family and offered me to share in all their meals. This is truly an authentic homestay to experience Sri Lankan life

I stayed here for a week whilst surfing in Weligama. Nala and his family were the most generous hosts, both with his friendship and hospitality. I've had my room cleaned daily, his wife made me lunch to share with his family and endless tea/juice. The room is really nicely presented and has a small tea and coffee station. His home is known as 'The Tree House' as its built around the original trees, its a very cool feature and reflects Nalas love and respect for nature and the environment. Every morning around 20 (friendly) monkeys sit in his mango tree, theres also an iguna who lives on his land and a beautiful view of the canopy. Jungle Beach (in the photos) is a short walk away and the house is on the outskirts of Weligama (1km walk or a 0.9$ bus). I couldn't recommend staying here more if you would like an authentic and sustainable trip where you can make a friend for life and learn about the real Sri Lanka.

Kindhearted and caring, this is how Nalaka treats his guests in his cozy Home Stay. A nice chat is more than a recomention, as a tour guide Nalaka knows a lot about Sri Lanka. He also cares about Nature, thats why he built his house around the trees, be it rooms or balcony - you feel close to nature. Altough that, the rooms a very clean! We got that accomodation in cooperation with the nearby Surfcamp, and highly recommend it.

I can highly recommend this accommodation! Have spent a week with Nala and his great family. Everyone was so sweet and hospitable. The rooms are great furnished and very clean. Nala took great care of me and was always responsive when there was a question. I really had a great time at Nalaka Relaxing Home.. Clear recommendation!

I was greeted very warmly and had a wonderful two weeks at Nala's place! The room was very clean, comfortable and charmingly incorporated the tree that the house is built around. I felt very connected to nature here - step outside on the balcony and come face to face with monkeys, see little geckos, fireflies or birds or cross paths with a land monitor on my way out. Nala is a tour guide and is very knowledgeable about Sri Lanka - he told me a lot about the flora and fauna and the history of the country. I was also treated to some delicious home cooked food by Nala's family - I especially loved the pumpkin curry and the hoppers. I also got to try some fruits new to me like soursop. Overall, staying at Nala's place was a really wonderful experience and I left with great memories shared with lovely people.

This guesthouse is extremely clean, big room with enough space to relax, work. If you are into surfing there is an amazing reef break, jungle beach, about 5 minutes walking from the property. This beach is also amazing to sit, eat, and see sunsets at. The owner Nalaka is extremely helpful and he will make sure that you are treated like family. Ask him anything and he will be sure to help you out! And there is also a surprise, you will be able to see wild monkeys from your balcony which is something i could watch for hours.

It was a nice and amazing time with Nalaka during our stay. Nalaka is very friendly and creative who makes smile for my family members always. He guided us around the Sri Lanka with care. His knowledge in history is amazing and provide in detail information about places. He has offered us several packages and what paid for the package it worthy. His hotel is situated in very calm place and nicely arranged the room. This was one of my best experience where I visited and recommend without hesitation.
