Mango Roots

Such heartwarming people and service. The rooms were really clean and good. The beds were really really comfy and the best ones we had on our roundtrip. We always had very tasty regional Sri Lankan food. The rooms had an own wifi. Also they had air conditioning so it was never to hot.

Our stay at Mango Root was absolutely amazing! The room was exceptionally clean and decorated with great attention to detail. We were especially impressed by the modern and newly renovated bathroom – a true highlight, as there were no humidity issues whatsoever, which can often be a problem in Sri Lanka, especially in bathrooms. The air conditioning, provided drinking water, and carpeted floor made our stay even more comfortable. While the carpet might not be ideal for pet owners, we found it perfect for sitting on the floor in the evenings while our son was peacefully sleeping. The covered terrace in front of the house is another great feature – ideal for relaxing outside, even during the rain. The absolute highlight of Mango Root, however, is the host family. Anusha, Eranda, their three adorable triplets, and the helpful uncle won our hearts with their warmth and kindness. Our son was overjoyed when we got to visit them twice in the evenings. While the children played together, we enjoyed a delicious, authentic Sri Lankan dinner and had inspiring conversations. Getting a glimpse into the daily life of this wonderful family deeply touched us. Despite the challenges they face, they maintain such a positive outlook on life, which left a lasting impression on us. Initially, we had planned to stay for just one night, but we ended up extending our stay for another night because we felt so comfortable and welcomed. A heartfelt thank you to Anusha, Eranda, the lovely children, and the kind uncle for this unforgettable experience. We wish you all the best and hope to return one day!

We had a lovely night at Mango roots. Eranda welcomed us and made some tea and freshly sliced mangos from the mango tree in their garden. For dinner we had kottu which was really good. Eranda and Anusha invited us in their home to spend some time with them and their triplets. The triplets were really cute and we had a lovely time there. If you look for a nice homestay, you should defenitely visit mango roots. The room is good, the food is very good, the mangos from their tree are amazing and Eranda and Anusha are also amazing. Defenitely worth your time and money.
