We had a fantastic stay here. The house & setting are just beautiful, so peaceful & the hosts are so welcoming & friendly. The bed was so comfortable! We had an evening meal here which was home cooked & delicious. We had an early start the following day for a Jeep safari we’d booked through the hosts & we were sent off with a huge packed breakfast. The safari was fabulous too, the guide was so knowledgeable about Udawele Park. Wish we could have stayed longer!

We had an amazing stay at Mansala Safari House. The hosts are very kind and welcoming, and the house itself is clean and comfortable. The hosts arranged two safaris for us which were both excellent; the driver picked us up directly from the accommodation and was very knowledgeable about the park. We had the car completely to ourselves as well. The hosts provided breakfast in the morning, and also gave us water bottles and coffees for the safaris. During our second day we were reading on the lovely terrace and the host even came up with a fresh mango for us which was delicious. I would absolutely recommend this place to anyone - lovely hosts and a great space!

One of our favourite stays in Sri Lanka! Lovely family run accommodation in a quiet area. The family were so welcoming and it was such a pleasure getting to know them. The room was very spacious , clean , nicely decorated and very comfortable. We had dinner and had big portions of delicious , authentic , home cooked food. We also had a lovely traditional Sri Lankan breakfast there. They arranged our morning safari which was so memorable and we had a fantastic guide. We were even given water and iced coffee for the journey! It is excellent value for money and I would recommend this guest house to anyone.

A wonderful stay at Mansala, with very friendly and helpful hosts. We had a room with balcony and two double beds for us and our son. The owner was able to arrange our safari, taxi and trip to the Elephant Transit home. All very close by. Excellent communication. They organised some water for the early morning safari and breakfast on our return. Freshly cooked and plentiful breakfast. The family were generous with their hospitality

Our hosts were extremely friendly and attentive. We had an issue with the sink in our bathroom and Tiron came to fix it within minutes. We also dined an Mansala House after our safari, the food was fresh and delicious. Tiron also arranged our safari guide who was great.

Beautiful small family run hotel with a king bed, strong AC and a nice balcony. It’s lovely and quiet but close to the park and town. The hosts are so lovely and they made us excellent dinner and breakfast

5 star customer service by this hotel. Tiron informed us before we arrived that there was an issue with the room, so he took the liberty to book us an alternative hotel that turned out to be just as nice as his! Communication was easy with him via WhatsApp, allowing us to easily book a safari the very next morning with a very well spoken and knowledgeable driver/guide. 10/10 would stay again.

Will • Couple Trip

We had a fantastic stay with Tiron and his family, very welcoming and authenticly friendly hosts. Tiron organised 2x safaris over our stay (4 hr PM and 6 hr AM), both of which were really fantastic, we had a private jeep and had amazing experiences with elephants, wild buffalo, crocodiles, deer, mongoose and a load of interesting birds. Tiron was really attentive throughout our stay and always made sure we had bottles of water and was even up with packed lunches for our 5am safari start. We also ate dinner at the house both nights, cooked from scratch by the family - highly recommended!

We had an amazing stay here. The room was lovely with an outdoor bathroom , a veranda and jungle views with toucans and wildlife in the garden area. The owner and his family were incredibly hospitable, we had juice and lovely cake on arrival, we requested our safari tour and this was organised immediately which we really enjoyed. a fantastic breakfast was served after we returned and then a car organised for our onward destination. Such a lovely experience and would definitely recommend a trip here. i did a lot of research before booking and this paid off.

Tiron and his family were wonderful hosts. It was lovely to be welcomed into their home so warmly. We didnt have to think about anything during our stay with them. Food was always freshly prepared and ready for us. Tiron organised our safari tour with Devinda who was an excellent guide and driver who seemed to find us all the animals, stopped and waited to let us watch for several minutes. We were often the only ones around. We loved that he was able to share facts and all types of details about what we saw. Excellent english as well. Tiron also helped arrange our onward travel transfers. He was such a helpful and thoughtful host, thank you so much for your kindness!!

What a beautiful location and home. The air conditioning was on in the room when I got there which felt amazing in the heat and the owner was extremely welcoming, kind, and helpful. He helped me book a safari tour right away and made me feel extremely comfortable. Outdoor rock shower was very cool and the breakfast was yummy. Would definitely come back!

We stayed for two nights with Tiron and his family, who could not have done more to make us feel very well looked after. The house is located in a beautiful, peaceful location and we very much enjoyed the beautiful meals cooked for us. Highly recommend.
