EKUKU lake houses

Pros +

• The Owners are really really nice!! They try to help where they can. The enviorment is really nice too! If you looking for a calm place its a beatiful place. But dont go in the end of the season bc the restaurant is closed so you have to drive somewhere to find food.
• The two people run EKUKU alongside their love of surfing in the Midigama area. If surfing is why you are going to the south, then this place is for you. The team that have been employed to help run EKUKU are attentive, friendly and great cooks. The slogan on the menu says we cook food that we love is true. With western owners and Sri Lankan workers, you see this in the food choices. As the lake houses are set back from the beach (about 500m) with a direct view over the lake, you get to see some wonderful wildlife outside your room, including freshwater turtles, every now and again.

Cons -

• I was not really happy with the Room, i was unlucky that, it was raining- so the humanity was really high, even my matress was wet bc they dont have ACs in the Rooms just fans. But the owners are super nice, bc after the first night i decided to check out early and they allowed even i booked for 3 nights and they didnt charged me for 3 nights just for one night. I think in the main season its really nice and when the restaurant is open bc i heard the food should be really really good. ! :)
• Whilst we dont mind bugs, being on a lake, there are a lot. The room gets very warm so you need to open the doors to get some air circulating meaning plenty of bugs, including mosquitos, do get in.
