Located within 200 metres of Tangalle Beach and 14 km of Hummanaya Blow Hole, MENAKA HOMESTAY offers rooms with air conditioning and a private bathroom in Tangalle. This beachfront property offers access to a terrace, table tennis, free private parking and free WiFi. The property offers a restaurant, bar and garden on-site. Accommodation for disabled guests is also available. Hosts are amazing and helpful. We also went fishing with Manu. Breakfast is plentiful and good. The rooms were very clean. The location is excellent since it is close to the centre but in a quiet area. And it is also very close to the beach. I highly recommend the place.

At the homestay, all units are fitted with a terrace. Each unit comes with a kettle and a private bathroom with a bidet and free toiletries, while certain rooms will provide you with a fully equipped kitchen equipped with an oven. At the homestay, the units have bed linen and towels. In my opinion, this is the best place you can stay in Tangalle. It is located a little bit outside the center so calmer but still close enough so that within 5 minutes, you are in town if you wish to. Two of the most beautiful beaches of the area (Silent Beach and Goyambokka Beach) are within walking distance. The place itself is absolutely great. It's a beautiful house with the hosts living on ground floor and the rooms/apartments on 2nd and 3rd floor. They are very spacious and equipped with everything you need, both for a short vacation or for a longer term stay. The beds are comfortable and the mattresses have standard US/European length, so your feet won't stick out. The AC works properly and in addition there is a fan. The WiFi is perfectly stable and fast enough even for video calls. The bathroom is clean and designed in such a way so that you can take a shower without the entire floor being wet for hours. The host and his family are very friendly and welcoming. His English is very good which makes communication easy, and he replies very quickly. They offer food at their place and rent out scooters. Given the price all of this is offered to us as guests, this place definitely deserves a 10 star review. I have already recommended coming here to friends and am certain you will be happy staying here either.

The units at the homestay feature private entrance and soundproofing so guests can enjoy a peaceful stay. Every unit is equipped with a kettle, a private bathroom and free WiFi, while certain rooms come with a terrace and some have sea views. At the homestay, units include bed linen and towels. The room was very beautiful, large, clean, modern, bright and cozy. Two large, comfortable beds with soft pillows and easy access to several sockets, light switches and a very efficient air conditioner. There was also a nice sofa group and access to the balcony. The bathroom was modern, nice and clean. The family is absolutely wonderful and did everything they could to ensure that we had a perfect stay. They served cheap drinks and food (much cheaper than the restaurants) and adapted the food as we wanted. Lovely food❤️ The lovation is also perfect.

Boasting lake views, Lake Face Cabana offers accommodation with terrace, around 4.5 km from Tissa Wewa. There is an in-house restaurant, plus free private parking and free WiFi are available. All rooms have a balcony with views of the garden. We liked the location next to the lake and the huge amount of wildlife we could enjoy watching while sitting on the balcony or in the beautifully kept garden. The host family are extremely welcoming and we felt well looked after with suggestions on things to do and help arranging tuktuks etc. The home cooking was perhaps the best we have had in Sri Lanka and generous in proportion (1 dish will easily serve 2+) and well priced. We enjoyed a local specialty, buffalo curd with treacle see photos), amongst other dishes. The location is a little out of the city but we liked that it was quiet, peaceful and offered the lake view, the room itself is basic but what you need - think of it as glamping and the rustic nature part of the wildlife aesthetic.
