We stayed in Mawanella at Mystay for just one night, however we wish we could stay longer! A spacious, comfortable room with multiple areas in the room and outside to relax. Friendly, accommodating host family, made us delicious food, and showed us around town.

What a family, and what a place! As a couple we have travelled quite extensively and can honestly say: never have we been treated with such great hospitality. From tour guiding and cooking to being great company and exceptional hosts; Anushka and his family checks all the boxes. The room is cosy and clean, and you can feel the effort that has been put into the place. 11/10 ⭐ from us.

The place is amazing in every single way. The room was very nice, clean and comfortable. Outstanding views and very quiet area, just 15 mins away from the city centre by tuk tuk. The family is lovely and very helpful. The food and the cooking class are beyond words. I definitely recommend this homestay to everyone one.

An absolute gem of a homestay. The hosts were friendly and helpful, the room and the bathroom — spotlessly clean, the bed — comfy, dinner and breakfast that the lady owner cooked for me — filling and tasty. What more is there to ask for?

Ayesha prepared such a magnificent and large breakfast every morning, that we were able to take half of it for a packed lunch on our excursions. She made a huge effort to treat us to all the local dishes and added some Western food on the side. They really helped us to have a local experience by directing us how to use local buses and trains. Their house is large and spacious and we had a lot of privacy but also lots of valuable interaction. One of the highlights was the day when Shiva took us to Lion's Rock and afterwards took us for dinner to his family in a nearby village. All in all a wonderful experience and highly recommended.
