It is a beautiful new property just off the main road. Large beautiful rooms and bathrooms! Huge terrace on top which is available to everyone. Abundant breakfast! But most of all the owners are amazing! They treat you like one of the family and nothing is too much trouble! This place is one of the top places in which we stayed in Sri Lanka! Would definitely recommend.

Perfect base for exploring ancient Anuradhapura. The accommodation is very clean and modern, it's a lovely and peaceful spot. Breakfast was really good and our host was exceptionally nice and helpful. We had a really good rest and got all the help and advice for our time in Anuradhapura (and two bicycles which are actually perfect for getting around the ancient sites and temples). Can't recommend this place enough, we'd come back any time!

We loved everything! But the hosts were something extra. They helped us with everything, for example solving a dental emergency, driving us to the bus stop, driving us to a lunch place and organising acitivites. When we arrived we mentioned that we had been to a cooking class in Negombo and that we had enjoyed that a lot. The owner then directly set up a little cooking class for us to do with his family. We were cooking with the family and we had an amazing time and amazing food. If we ever come back to Anuradhapura we will for sure stay here again!

    Ceylonima Home stay is a must! Mapa and Kanchi are the best hosts ever. Mapa is super helpful when planning trips or taxis (their brother is a great driver!). Kanchi has spoiled us with the best food in Sri Lanka. The room and bathroom were beautiful too! We highly recommend the homestay.

    I had the most wonderful time at the Ceylonima Home Stay. It was my first accommodation in Sri Lanka and as a female solo traveler I felt very welcome and safe. I had dinner at the homestay the first evening which tasted great! The next day, Mapa gave me and my friends a tour through Mihintale. We really enjoyed learning about the Buddhist culture! Mapa and his wife make sure you have everything you need and the car ride to the train station is just perfect! Thank you for introducing me to your country😊
