What a spoiling stay. Kalametiya Bird Reserve (heaven), Hiriketiya, trip to market, a hammock with my name on it and the fabulous care of Roshan and RC. Thank you very much.

A beautiful place on a magical coast. A big thank you to Ruane for safely tuk tuking us to the surf beaches along the coast and to Roshan for his delicious curries. Nothing was left unturned. We would love to return. Thank you for your wonderful hospitality.

Thank you so much, dear Nicola, for the most magical few days in your exquisite Teak House. My mother and I feel rested and pampered and we both agree that this is the most beautiful place we have been in Sri Lanka. A big thank you to the fantastic chef for the delicious food and Ruane for taking such good care of us! We will be back

Our arrival at The Teak House marked significant milestones in both my and my daughter’s life. Me to celebrate my 70th birthday and Ale to mark the end of a very satisfying but exhausting culinary residence. The total peace, charm and beauty of your home could not have been more delightful and relaxing. The decor and your staff are charming and our stay will remain in our memories forever. Thank you for allowing us to share your piece of paradise.

The Teak House has been a perfect ending to our tour of Sri Lanka. We have been beautifully looked after and have truly relaxed.

Wonderful spot. Particularly loved the magisterial migrating bats at dusk and the pre-ordered lunches at Muthu Restaurant outside of the delicious food and excellent care of R, R and K.

Goodbye Teak House! A tropical paradise very different from our own in Australia and, yet, like home! A brilliant location and I feel blessed that we found this little Teak House!! Lastly, thank you to the staff. The perfect beach holiday.

My Wife and I stayed in the Teak House for 5 nights in December 2012 and we had the best time ever!!! The House is even prettier than the pictures we saw online. Clean, Spacious and very quiet. It is a 2 mins walk to a beautiful and quiet Beach. Roshan and his brother Ruanne made the experience even better. Roshan cooked amazing dishes to us all week and even made a huge Birthday cake for me... Ruanne took us in his Tuk Tuk to some beautiful places around town, places we would have never found or heard about on our own. We will definitely come back next Year and will recommend this house to our friends. Thank you Teak House Team!!!

My wife and I stayed two weeks at The Teak House in October 2013. We were advised that it was second monsoon season and that we might encounter a great deal of rain, but the weather was nearly perfect during our visit. Brief afternoon showers fell on some days and we did have about 24 hours of continuous rain soon after we arrived, but otherwise it was sunny and warm.

We recently spent 10 nights at Teak House. We were looking for a break from a very hectic and stressful lifestyle that took us back to grass roots with just the right amount of luxury. And that is exactly what we go.

what a wonderful house! We spent a week in this very peaceful property up on the hill, 2 mins walk to one of the most picturesque beaches in the area. The villa has 2 double rooms with lovely 4 poster beds, interconnected by an open living/dining area. The villa is managed by the superb Roshan who is an outstanding cook, as well as his brother Ruane who has a Tuk Tuk to take you wherever you fancy. Not forgetting Tissa and Seeni who are a lovely addition to the property. Beach is fab for boogie boarding and long walks, and lots of rock pools which the kids enjoyed! the lovely new pool is also a very welcome addition, adding to the appeal of the house. You sleep at night with the roar of the ocean below and the noise of the jungle. Well located, close to the Aman and Tangalle. would 100% recommend a stay here.

we chose The teak House to relax after a fortnight of touring Sri Lanka, and are heartily glad we did so. The house is a pretty wooden construction in delightful grounds with a new and delightful pool. The open living area and bedrooms are attractive and comfortable; whether sitting watching wildlife and bird life by the pool or, later in the evening, counting the numerous fireflies which flock around, the place is enchanting. What makes the place really special is the attention and kindness of the people. Roshan and his brother Ruane keep everything is tip top trim and serve the most delicious meals entirely unintrusively. Ruane will take you out in his tuk tuk to places you'd never find without local knowledge, and if you wish to go further afield, the property's favoured driver, Sujith, is simply the most wonderful guide to the local attractions and wildlife. In fact, anyone contemplating a tour of Sri Lanka should DM me for Sujith's telephone number, because he is an absolute gem. The legendary Tissa the dog will accompany you on the short stroll to the beach where you can watch the fishermen bring in their catch - it's a truly magical place. The shower's good and powerful, as well. Heartily recommended, we'll be back.
