Diwa estuvo excelente durante toda nuestra estancia. Nos acogió como uno más y nos acompaño a todas nuestras actividades sin pedir nada a cambio. Si queréis vivir una experiencia real y conectar con la gente local de verdad, este es el mejor sitio en el que podéis estar. Super agradable, super divertido y sobre todo una persona muy humilde de la que nos llevamos un recuerdo para toda la vida.

Hakuna Matata Hostel is close to Sigiriya Rock Fortress (3 km) and Dambulla Cave Temple (17 km). The owners (Diwa and family) are friendly and hospitable. They help guests with their ideas, experiences, and advice.
The property has only basic facilities and is dusty. The owners should ensure the property is clean.

The family was super cute, warm and welcoming! The location was great: located in a beautiful jungle and close to the main rock.
The beds were u-shaped. You couldn’t really call it a bed, rather a hammock. There was no running water in the morning, one dorm was a walkthrough room on the way to the outdoor toilet.
