    I had the most wonderful time at the Ceylonima Home Stay. It was my first accommodation in Sri Lanka and as a female solo traveler I felt very welcome and safe. I had dinner at the homestay the first evening which tasted great! The next day, Mapa gave me and my friends a tour through Mihintale. We really enjoyed learning about the Buddhist culture! Mapa and his wife make sure you have everything you need and the car ride to the train station is just perfect! Thank you for introducing me to your country😊

    Probably the best home stay you can find around Anuradhapura. Hosts are super kind and super friendly. They will do everything to make you  feel comfortable. They were waiting for us with a 😊 and after 5 minutes chat we were just family. Comfortable room with AC, fast internet, tv and a spotless clean bathroom. They were even kind enough to lend us their son's bicycles for our little rides. And also food was excellent. Recommended for anyone visiting Anuradhapura looking for a homestay.

    Harshani is a great host. She provided us with lots of helpful recommendations what to see in the area and organized a driver and bus tickets for transportation. The homestay is located in the backyard surrounded by lots of palm trees, so it’s very quiet. The room was like on the pictures, it was simple but very good for one night. We had dinner at the place and Harshani provided us some delicious Sri Lankan food :-) thanks for everything!!!
