Heidis Home

Heidi’s home/Serendipity is a great place to stay in Nuwara Eliya. Perfectly located with a nice view of the lake. Guest house is beautifully decorated. Rooms were comfortable and spotless. Breakfast was generous and very tasty.

When we were picked up from the train station, the taxi driver made us an offer to take us to Horton Plains and then on to our next guest house the following day. We discussed with Heidi, who explained that this was an unrealistic expectation to do in 1 day and the price we’d been quoted was expensive. She said “you’re at the highest point in Sri Lanka surrounded by beautiful country, why don’t you go out and enjoy it” so we did! Heidi arranged for a tuk tuk to take us round the tea plantations and waterfalls which was a lovely, more relaxing way to spend the morning. We then got a much cheaper taxi to our next guest house in Uda Walawe, which again she arranged for us. Really felt like she was looking out for us and it was very much appreciated.

Unique, artistic and warm accommodation! Very loving and something special! The way into town along the lake is also very nice to walk! The environment is quiet and pleasant!

I have to give Heidi’s home a 5 star as it’s one of the most memorable, whimsical, special fairy home you can find. Heidi’s super caring, helpful, knowledgeable, she will take care of you like family. Location is a short Tutut drive away from town & walking distance from scenic lake. I’d stay there again in a heart beat!

The most beautiful hotel I’ve ever stayed in! The rooms were gorgeous and so unique, with a super comfy bed and lovely bathroom. Staff were wonderful, Heidi and her small team are so friendly and helpful. It’s a lovely location above the lake, but still very close to the town. Definitely recommend!

Chouette endroit où passer quelques nuits pas trop loin du centre (pas a pied!). Endroit chaleureux et hôte très sympa! Décoration très originale, ça change des endroits classics!

Heidi's home - now known as Serendipity Lake Artistic Bungalow by Heidi's Home - is a homestay that makes one feel like living in a fairytale. Owner Heidi is also like a fairy, with a wonderful soul. A beautifully hand-painted, family run property with rooms having their own personalities and themes, this truly gives a fairytale vibe. Creepers covering the walls and birds chirping throughout the day complete the picture, not to mention the cool breeze and the chilling climate of Nuwara Eliya.

The service is top notch and one really does feel at home. The host Heidi and her family are very accommodative, supportive and understanding. The property is super clean and neat, despite not being luxurious. However, it is furnished with some high quality antique furniture. The food we had was quite delicious and prepared with love. Some consumables are purposely sourced from individual smallholder suppliers to support them.

The location is roughly 3km away from the city centre and at the edge of the Gregory Lake. The area is more of a peaceful and calm residential area with a few rest houses and boutique hotels.

For anyone who is looking for a getaway in Nuwara Eliya with calming vibes for the soul, this is certainly the place to be, run by a qualified, philosophical Yoga instructor.

A real life fairytale ️ beautiful interior and wonderful views. Heidi is tlao amazing and friendly. She makes you feel right at home and goes out of her way to create a memorable experience. I didn't want to leave!

Hospitality at it’s best. Heidi is a great host and deserves 100 stars! Her paintings are amazing! I felt home from the very first minute. The best guest room ever while traveling!

Lovely b&b. The owners are so helpful and will make you feel at home. Rooms are very comfortable and clean, not to mention the art on the walls. Cozy, colorful garden and amazing location. Will definitely return! Thank you for everything!

Heidi's home is now my new favorite place! This guesthouse is gorgeous but feels very luxurious at the same time. The bed is the most cozy and comfortable bed I've slept in, the decoration is mesmerizing and the hosts are very friendly. You'll reach the city quickly by tuk tuk (max 200 rupees) but you will not want to leave your room. Don't hesitate!

Very authentic place. It feels more like you’re staying at someone’s house. Owners are very nice.

Amazing, comfortable, gorgeous place. The owners put their hearts and souls into this guesthouse and it shows. All our requests were catered to as well, would definitely stay here again.

This place is very beautiful and the staff is friendly and helpful. We stayed there for 2 nights without any issue. Definitely visit there again.
