A very warm welcome from Anushka and his family. The unique clay house with its unusual shower was very comfortable to stay in. Beautiful plants all around and a pet rabbit added to the charm. The dinner and breakfast were incredibly delicious and traditional. Anushka was always ready to help and give advice. Thank you very much for the wonderful moments!

The accommodations are spacious, clean and comfortable. The food is authentic and amazing, and same goes for our gracious host and tour guide. At no point in our stay did we feel discomfort. The experience allowed us to immerse in the Sri Lankan culture in a way that was comfortable and inviting.

Mystay is a lovely rustic place set among trees and birdsongs. The room is quaint. There is a sitting room, a bedroom and a shower room with back-to-nature theme. 😍. All rooms are nicely decorated. There is a wall fan if one feels hot. At this time of the year, the temperature at night was nice and cool. 😊 There’s a hot shower which is a nice touch. There is an open treehouse dining area which is nice. 😍 The host, Prashan, was attentive to the guests. He showed me to Boella waterfall which is a Very nice waterfall with several swimming spots. 😍 As it is only a 1 night stay, I could not see the other attractions in Mawanella. I shall be back to see the other attractions. I had lunch and breakfast at Mystay and they were delicious.

    Couldn't recommend enough. This is a wonderful Home Stay with the most welcoming family. We felt right at home. We were welcomed with tea and the onsite bar was a lovely touch. The host was so helpful and would be a great guide for any tourist experiences. The chalet had everything we needed and was very comfortable. We had breakfast dinner and part took in a cooking class. Wonderful time, wonderful family. Must stay

    Discover the hidden gems of Mawanella through the warm hospitality of Anushka and his lovely family at their enchanting homestay 🌿 This place is so wonderful I extended my stay and will definitely be back! Everything was perfect, the food was delicious, the hospitality, the room, the pool to cool down on a hot day, great location making it easy to go to other parts and also lovely to just sit and relax surrounded by nature reading a book or writing. Plus, Anushka really knows the island and is a great tour guide!
