We didn't stay in the Blue Haven Guest House, but used their services as a tour agency. Their car and driver met us at the Colombo airport and we travelled for 12 nights together. The driver, Tissa, was excellent in all respects. Blue Haven did a good job of making hotel reservations in 8 different cities for us, and obtained... More

We had a superb 1 week trip to Sri Lanka consisting of 1 night in Colombo followed by 5 nights organized by Linton, the proprietor of the Blue Haven Guest House. We rounded the trip off with a few days on the beach in Bentota. We booked the hotel in Colombo and Bentota, but everything else was arranged by Linton... More

Our trip was organised to cater for both couples - we enjoyed safaris, surfing, walking, mountain climbing and eating. Tissa, our driver, was just the most knowledgeable,... More

Mr. Linton is the owner of this tour agency. We met him in the Colombo railway station after contacting him based on a listing in Lonely planet. He listened to our ideas of our vague itinerary for our week long trip through Sri Lanka and then put it together for us practically. It was very clear from the beginning that... More

Rooms: As mentioned, the ones on the first floor are small and damp and in dire need of an upgrade. The bed sheets were dirty and not big enough. Owner: Seems only interested in your money. We wanted to take a day-trip by train to Nuwara Eliya. Mr Linton told us that the train would be too full and impossible... More

I booked a tour with Blue Haven and stayed in Sri Lanka for eight nights. My driver/guide Nisha was very attentive and knowledgeable about the culture and history of the country. I stayed in the Blue Haven Guest House for a total of three nights. The staff members are very friendly and the view from the guest house is breathtaking.... More

But try to get near the a/c unit seats at the rear of the carriage ,away from the tv screen,if you're too hot from waiting at the fort station. Also try to get seats on the right going out for more interesting views,... More

Blue Haven Guest House was our first accommodation upon arriving in Sri Lanka. We chose it based on photos and reviews and because it is connected with Blue Haven Tours and we knew we wanted to arrange further travel. Granted, we arrived at the end of the Sri Lankan New Year holiday, so neither the pool nor the fish tank... More
