Mailagama Cinnamon Residence

Kataragama

Mailagama Cinnamon Residence features free WiFi and views of mountain in Sellakataragama. Featuring a concierge service, this property also provides guests with a terrace. Every room comes with a patio with garden views. The property is within 6 km of Yala Block 5 and Lunugamwehera wildlife parks.

At the guest house, every room is fitted with a desk, a flat-screen TV and a private bathroom. At Mailagama Cinnamon Residence rooms are equipped with a seating area. My wife and I spent 7 days at Mailagama Cinnamon Residence. The hotel is located in a very beautiful and quiet place in the middle of green rice fields. We loved to walk and there were many routes around - there were large lakes nearby. You meet very few people, just many-many peacocks or a lonely lizard. The hotel is nice looking and comfortable. Our room was clean and large. There was very good hot water pressure, probably the best of the 9 hotels in Sri Lanka where we stayed. Terrace with beautiful views of the surrounding area. There was a large space for working on a laptop, doing yoga and meditation, with fans running. As we are freelancers it was essential for us. We were delighted with the food cooked by two very kind ladies. The hotel manager was incredibly attentive to all our needs, very punctual and obliging. We were also glad to meet the hotel owners. Indira and her husband showed us their cinnamon plantations. It is not like in numerous “Spice gardens”, where they try to sell tourists cinnamon at an increased price. There was a small family production here, which was specially shown to us. You can buy cinnamon, but no one imposes it. We bought some as gifts for our friends. And we were also very grateful to our hosts for driving us along the highway. Within half an hour we met 3 elephants, a herd of buffalo and deer. And this was not a nature reserve, but an ordinary road. On another day we went on a safari to Yala Park. We saw 3 leopards, wild pigs and many other animals. The safari was booked through the hotel, the price was quite normal. Overall, this is one of the best hotels in terms of price-quality. Many people only stay for a day to go on safari, but this place deserves more. We are going to return here next year and recommend this hotel to everyone who likes nature

V Cabanas

Tissamaharama

At the guest house, all units are fitted with a desk. There is a private bathroom with bidet in all units, along with a hair dryer and free toiletries. At the guest house, every unit comes with a seating area. Everything was perfect. The location is just amazing, next to rice fields and impressive landscape. The family is super nice and welcoming, especially Adi treated us super well! His father is an artist that has decorated all the hotel and that also works the rice fields. They packed us the breakfast early in the morning when we had to leave for the safari, even if we have not arranged it with them. They gave us a delicious welcoming juice and a lot of fresh fruit during our stay. The room was very big, clean and comfortable. There was also place to park our tuktuk in the yard. We spend an extranight there because it was the best homestay we had been to in Sri Lanka! You can also take bikes for free to go and see the fruit bats at dawn. Dinners were delicious and non spicy!!! At last we found non spicy food in Sri Lanka! And everything for an unbeatable price.

Featuring room service, this property also has a restaurant and a children's playground. The accommodation provides a 24-hour front desk, airport transfers, a shared kitchen and free WiFi. This is the best stay I had in my time during my Sri Lankan visit. I liked everything about this property. They will send a tuktuk to the bus stop to pick you up and also will arrange a tuktuk to take you into the bus stop when you check out - free of cost. Food will be prepared on order and that was delicious too. They will arrange Yala safari if you are interested, pick up at 4.30am. Our driver was very knowledgeable about the animal/bird species but unfortunately the vehicle got broken down and he had to arrange a new one. New driver also tried to show us everything around. Ppl at the stay packed the breakfast and left it with the driver and in the park during safari, we were served with delicious breakfast. After the checkout, the tuktuk they arranged, took me to the bus stop and showed the bus that I have to board. Overall, this was the bestest stay I had in Sri Lanka
