Batticaloa · 民居里的独立房间 · 1室1床1.0卫 · 可住4人 · Neverbeen to Sangara's Home | Double Room 2
Experience a bit of the laid back life Batticaloa has to offer in this basic but nice house near the lagoon. Price is for the double room with shared bathroom. The house is located in Paalameenmadu, a quiet neighborhood in Batticaloa and a very nice place to be. Located near the Lighthouse area, guests can take boatrides across the lagoon, visit the small fishmarket in the morning and see (and hear!) the many birds around the house throughout the day. The house itself was entirely wiped out by the Boxing Day Tsunami, but was recently rebuilt. So recently, in fact, that it is fair to say that the finishing touches still have to be done (but we're not talking about the Hitlon anyway, so who cares). It's a nice, two-story house that towers over the much smaller houses in the neighborhood. The bedrooms share a bathroom per floor, and downstairs there's a living room, a dining room, a kitchen and a place to park cars. And, much like a cherry on top, the rooftop terrace provides a great place to relax and enjoy the sun(set).
I had an extremely short stay at Sangara's house. I underestimated the time that it would take me to get there and arrived at midnight. Sangara's and her daughter were still waiting for me, and I cannot thank them enough as I don't know what I would have done if they hadn't. They gave me all the information that I needed and I had a restful night in the little room with a nice balcony. I can say that it was nicely located near the lagoon and town and it also had a nice garden.
Budget accomodation, really small room (not even space to put your luggage). Not the cleanest also, but cheap
This place is basic but what do you expect for the price but it has a fan, mossie net and clean bathroom. It is a great way to experience Batti, very close to everything. The host's daughter is delightful and speaks English very well. The breakfast we had was brilliant, very fresh sambol and pancakes, and we wish we had opted for the dinner since the food was so great.
If any town in Sri Lanka can call itself 'Lagoon Town' it's Batticaloa, or 'Batti' as the locals call it. Believed to be founded by the ancient Vedda people and subsequently colonized by the Portuguese, Dutch and English, Batti has tons of history, paired with an abundance of natural beauty and things to do. The reason why Batti isn't visited much is because it's quite a trip to get there, it's was one of the main hotspots during the decades-long conflict and it was one of the places hardest hit by the Boxing Day Tsunami. A true Neverbeen location...
自我介绍
From 2014, Neverbeen offers a wide variety of rare homes off the beaten track, from fisherman's huts and tree houses to heritage homes and tea estates. Our team hand-picks and visits every home and meet all hosts to make ensure guests have a positively memorable stay in places they've never been. We provide travellers and home owners in challenging locations with access to one another, by offering communication services, online marketing services and tourism training, so that locals can make a living off their home and travellers can get to stay in places they have never been. As such, Neverbeen works for a world in which everyone has the chance to earn income by renting out their home, regardless of language, internet access and tourism experience. In Sri Lanka, Javid works out Neverbeen growth plans and manages our growing group of homes in cooperation with our scouts, while Corina creates listings and Dishan provides service. Our team of in-house programmers is constantly developing the platform itself. The first country we're active in is Sri Lanka, a beautiful country with many undiscovered places to stay. Having opened up to tourism after decades of conflict, it is a great place to start and pilot the Neverbeen concept. Having recognized for highest standards of service levels to guests and hosts alike, we plan to extend our Neverbeen portfolio and offerings from Homes to Experiences throughout Sri Lanka by the end of 2018.
