Bethel Rest Homestay Reviews

Very nice home stay place with an amazing view and very friendly people who are happy to help you! If you coming to Kandy , I highly recommend you this guest house!

It's on a plateau, so the view is great. The air is great, and the refreshing breeze feels good. The rooms are very clean, and the staff are friendly. I would recommend this hotel. It's on a plateau, so there are a lot of steep hills. If you try to call a tuk-tuk via Uber, you may be refused. The owner was kind enough to take me to town.

Hygiene: Good, but there are big cockroaches more than an inch long. Environment: Very good, built against the mountain, you can see the scenery of the town. Service: Very good, if you want to wash clothes, you can give it to the landlord, but there is no self-service laundry service. Facilities: Average, the water heater is a storage water heater, the capacity is very small, not enough for one person to wash, and it needs to be preheated for 20 minutes, and each person has to wait for 20 minutes.

8.4 In the morning, I woke up to the beautiful chirping of birds. I was in a viewing room in a mountain village near Kandy, Sri Lanka. The room was clean, tidy, and tastefully decorated. The owner of this house was hospitable and kind. She was hardworking, capable, and tasteful. Looking at her family photo, she had three children. Her eldest son had graduated from college in Australia. The second child was a 21-year-old daughter who worked as a clerk in Kandy. The third was a son who was in school. At 5:45 in the morning, I heard the sound of rain in the mountains through the window. Soon the rain stopped, and then there were crisp bird calls, woodpecker sounds, ticking sounds from something, occasional dog barking, and other indescribable sounds. I couldn't wait to get dressed and ran to the balcony. On the balcony, I looked at the white city of Kandy and looked back at the mountains and green trees close to nature, feeling the fresh air, and the stars in the distance, the lights shining through the leaves.

急な坂の上にありますがそのおかげで排気ガスを感じず、バルコニーからの眺めと鳥の鳴き声が最高です。夕食は$8でした。家庭料理がとてもおいしかったです。

We felt welcome from the first minute. It was great to be included in Rasjika and Dilini's home. What incredible welcoming and lovely people. We were there a few days before Christmas, which is the busiest time of the year for a pastor. And yet, all attention to us and our need. The food was delicious. We did a cooking workshop and before that together in shopping at the market. Learned a lot! Together, we attended a church service on Christmas Eve, then had a nice dinner out and once at home played cake, tea and games with the whole family. This was a Christmas Eve to remember. There were 5 of us as a family and when we had to say goodbye it was hard for us. Our youngest could barely hold back his tears, and that says enough about the 3 days we were able to share with this lovely family. Highly recommended to stay here when you want to learn about Sri Lanka and the people who live here. It is a totally different experience than a hotel, We would not have missed it for the world!

We had a wonderful time at the bethel rest homestay. The family is so sweet and nice and extremely helpful. It really was the best and coziest homestay on my trip. Our room had it’s own balcony and we saw kandy from the mountains. We stayed two nights and got expierences local culture and had the best coffee in Sri Lanka. The breakfast was delicious. Great place to stay for your time in kandy. I can only highly recommend staying in bethel rest homestay!

We had an amazing stay in Rasika's place, and we are so glad we stayed two nights instead of 1. The family was very friendly, polite, helpful and ready to answer any questions. The room was spacious, with a very comfy bed. And the view was breathtaking. They cooked us fresh local breakfast each morning and explained the tradition of eating. It was very, very tasty. The location is perfect too, 1.5 kilometres from the city. We felt like part of the family, and you will be more than happy to come again. Thank you for your hospitality. We very much appreciate we could stay with you.

Best place to stay in Kandy. Comfortable, cozy and lovely hosts. We arrived late but they made us dinner anyway (super tasty btw). The room is super comfortable and big with a huge plus of this incredible view from the room balcony. Affordable and comfy:-) The only regret was that we only stayed 1 night! Thank you for having us, Ana&José

Wonderful accommodation, beautiful house. Lovely communicative helpfull family. Dinner at late arrival was not a problem, even pasta was. The food was excellent. Accomodation clean and comfortable. Definitely recommended.

Bethel Home-stay is one of the best home-stays i have ever stayed. It is located on a stunning hill at the outskirts of the Kandy city with an exquisite view of entire area. This place offers a tranquil heaven of peace and serenity away from the bustle of the city , but still you can reach the city center within few minutes. There are dozens of tourist destinations in the vicinity including the famous Temple of Tooth Relic, Ceylon tea museum and Hanthana mountain range.The hospitality of the kindhearted owners of this place, which is the cherry on the cake, shows true Sri Lankan identity.

My girlfriend, our daughter and I, stayed here for 1 night. Our room was very spacious and clean, with a private bathroom and balcony with a superb view. The family owning the place are very sweet and accommodating, also the breakfast was very good. All In all a very pleasant experience. The only downside is some noice at night, from dogs, and the occasional vehicle.

Best accommodation. The hosts are very friendly and helpful and give lots of useful tips. The accommodation is lovingly and tastefully decorated and very clean. From the terrace you have a great view of Kandy. Excellent breakfast. We would love to come back.
