We stayed there just for one night. There is an older and newer part of the accommodation set in a garden. We first booked the cheaper older one but changed as we were there and saw the newer part quickly. For a budget accommodation all was ok. But the bedsheets, towels and covers should be upgraded. They were clean but sometimes with stains. Dinner was ok and for breakfast we received what we asked for.

The bathroom tap was annoying as the whole faucet moves, probably an easy fix. Breakfast was rather disappointing compared to other homestays. Even a banana would be appreciated with the dry hoppers.

Fabulous location with good birdlife especially in the early evening plus the bats. Also spotted a mongoose and monkeys. Very good WiFi. Enjoyed sitting out on the verandah. A few good restaurants within a 10 minute walk.

Location Value for price

We did not inquire about the price of dinner prior to ordering and before leaving we were charged 1300 per person. The dinner was fried rice which did not even have 100gm chicken and few pieces of carrots. It was a rip-off. So, do not order dinner without discussing the menu and price. Yes, the bathroom had four resident frogs which scared my wife. But I guess this is normal in such a place. And when we told that to the owner, he said that he did not wanna use poisons on these creatures. They came right after we took a shower. They would sit on the toilet. It was not the best experience. The toilet flush was not working in our room. The bathroom can have improvements. And the room light was dim.

Four of us stayed. My parents, me and my wife. Room sizes were decent. Bed were comfortable. Had Mosquito nets. The host and his family were helpful and welcoming. Breakfast was okay. Portion was not the best in Sri Lanka. Location was close to the Sigiriya Lion rock but that did not matter since we had our own rented car. Wifi was the best, literally the best. I did not have any better wifi in Sri Lanka and not even in the cities. The router was in our room and the speed was close to 178-200 mbps. The room was in a jungle like setting and the morning was wonderful. The morning energy was very calming and meditative. You can wake up early morning, read something and enjoy the village setting.

My partner and I had the best stay at Mana b&b. Mana and his wife are super friendly and made us feel very welcome. They provided us with delicious home cooked meals and helped arrange tours and transport during our stay.

We were very surprissed about how confortable and nice was the place. The room was big and had a very nice porch with shade and with your own table were you can relax while listening to the birds and watching all the nature that surrounds the place. It is a small paradise in the middle of the Sigiriya countryside. Moreover it is very close to the main sights , but if you dont feel like walking 1 kilometer to the Sigiriya rock, the owners have a tuk tuk and they offer you good prices to take you here and there any time you need it. The breakfast was homemade and very tasty. We also had lunch there and It was delicious. The family that runs the place is very helpfull and charming. A great place to stay, no doubt!

The bathroom could be much cleaner, the floor was dirty & there were 3 resident frogs living in there (although to be expected in a jungle environment). Breakfast on our first morning wasn’t substantial enough, but our 3rd day breakfast was great. The wi-fi cut out on the last night which was frustrating but the hosts were very apologetic. It is a little far from the main strip in Sigiriya (30 min walk).

This homestay is located really close to the entrance for Sigiriya Rock, only around a 20 minute walk. The host took us early in the morning to Pidurangala Rock for a reasonable price in his tuktuk. It’s great that there is A/C here as it is certainly needed. The bed was really comfy & the surroundings are beautiful in the jungle. The hosts wife also dropped us off at the main road free of charge to catch our onward bus. For the price it is a good stay :)

The location was great, close to Sigiriya Rock. The hosts were really nice and forthcoming. The hostess is an amazing chef and offered to show us how to prepare traditional Sri Lankan food. The place was clean and had really good WiFi (compared to most hostels we have so far encountered). At the end of our stay they offered free transport back to the bus station. Definitely worth the visit, we can only recommend:)

Bathroom cleanliness needs to be improved. Maintenance also required in the bathroom - shower head was not working. Breakfast could be better.

Good place for a quick stopover. Beds were comfy.

Stayed in March 2024

the cleaning. The bathroom was not clean, the sheets were not changed, we have found hair on the pillows and the toilet paper had animal poop on it. Also the breakfast was very poor, just some bananas and a piece of cake but due to the many flies we were afraid to try it.

The property by itself is quite charming as it inside the jungle.

Stayed in April 2024

Bathroom is not clean at all, frogs are every where (bedroom and bathroom). Geckos are on the bed, near pillows. Hot water shower is not working properly. Towels not clean at all. Owners are very cunning, at the check-in they were very friendly and humble. But at the time of check out they were very aggressive and not listened our complains. Argued with us. Totally opposite from the first day behavior.

Good comfortable bed, good AC machine and good breakfast
