Listing Details

Located around 2–3 km from central Kandy along Upper Hanthana Road, Chaminrich Villa (also known as Chaminrich Homestay) is a charming guesthouse-style villa set beside the Mahaweli River. With only 6 modern, bright rooms, many of which offer balconies with river or mountain views, the property has a peaceful, boutique feel.

Guests praise the exceptional hospitality—hosts welcome you with warm smiles, home-cooked meals, and even local cultural experiences like traditional New Year celebrations and cooking classes. Rooms are clean and air-conditioned, with comfortable beds, ensuite bathrooms with hot showers, and free Wi‑Fi. The villa also provides a riverside terrace for breakfast, a small wellness center, and optional complimentary airport or train station pickup. Pet-friendly on request, Chaminrich is an ideal choice for couples or small groups seeking a relaxing retreat with scenic views and friendly, personalized service—yet still a short tuk‑tuk ride from Kandy’s main attractions. High guest ratings reflect its reputation as a hidden gem.
