Detailed Reviews
From the moment i checked in , i had a good feeling about my stay here . I was friendly welcomed by Sajeeka Sandamali ( the lady owner ) , her son Dulneth Kasturiara Chchi and her daughter Jesmi Chanchala .
From this homestay it takes a few minutes walking to reach the amazing Hiriketiya beach .
Very clean and spatious room ( ac and fan ) with private bathroom ( hot and cold water , rainshower ) . Great Wi-Fi .
Sajeeka prepared a delicious breakfast ( european or local food ) .
She really takes care . I felt like a member of the family !
I really recommend this homestay and will return to stay here for sure !!!

Lovely family, incredible breakfast, clean house and clean rooms, very quiet place so perfect for people searching for rest, 1min walk to Hiriketya beach so perfect for surfing. We stayed in Jesmi House for 10 days, the family even invite us for dinner one night and cooked for us. The price is really cheap for what it is. We highly recommand this house!

We had a lovely few nights here. We were able to use cooking facilities, had our own balcony to do yoga on and the rooms were clean. We saw monkeys really close by in the trees. It was a pleasant experience for us. The hosts were friendly and accommodating and had 2 really sweet kids, a boy and a girl. This was one of the better guesthouses we stayed in Sri Lanka.

My boyfriend and I spent a week in this beautiful place. Unfortunately I caught a fever on our travels, so we really needed to find a clean and comfortable place for my recovery.
Jesmi house was the perfect choice! By far the cleanest and most well maintained guesthouse we stayed at during our month long journey.
The hosts have been incredibly helpful taking me to the doctors and making sure my stay was as restful as possible! Nutritious, delicious and forever changing breakfast was offered at any time of the morning.
Our room was clean on arrival, very spacious with a big cosy bed. I really wish I had a photo to share!
As I recovered we spent our days at the beautiful surfbeach nearby and dining at the surrounding restaurants.
All in all we're more than happy to have found Jesmi house! :)
