Little private house in a nice garden - we would have stayed longer just to enjoy more time in the garden, on the hamac, at the gazebo for breakfast, or just playing with the kids. Our host - living just next door - made sure everything was perfect for us Beautiful Sri Lankan breakfast - and lunch or dinner on request - all home-cooked with fresh ingredients in front of us, and different every day. Some of the best food we’ve had in Sri Lanka. Quiet residential neighbourhood but with PickMe app (on Sri Lankan SIM card), you are in town by tuktuk in 5mn and for 200 rupees (less than 1$)

Excellent choice to stay in Anuradhapura

Super spacious apartment with a kitchen, living room and the two rooms with AC. The owner was very kind and attentive, giving us a lot of information on what to visit and when, where to dine, and gave us a lot of nice insights into the history and the culture of the area. Breakfast was plentiful, simple, but great. Overall Prestiva Stay is such a nice example of the renowned hospitality of Sri Lanka, we highly recommend to stay here when visiting Anuradhapura!

Nice accommodation. Two bedrooms were air conditioned and the living room had a fan. TV with satellite tv was available. Kitchen was available with refrigerator, electric kettle and rice cooker. There were other amenities available for a reasonable extra payment. A cot was provided for the baby also, which is a difficult thing to find in most of the places around Anuradhapura.

Welcoming host, taste of Sri Lanka - definitely recommend!

The host was very welcoming and friendly. He offered us homemade dinner and we got to peek into the different local tastes at breakfast. PS. use the opportunity and ask him or preorder for homemade dinner. Host is very knowledgable guy. He took his time to talk about Sri Lanka and made many suggestions for our trip, for excample Ritigala Strict Natural Reserve - which we visited, Thank You for that! Room was also very nice and comfortable. Small improvment is to add a watermop, to dry the shower/toilet room after showering, but it seems to be the same in all Sri Lanka.

Truly a "home away from home" experience

We had the pleasure of visiting Prestiva Stay for the second time in 2024, and once again, it exceeded our expectations. The owner, Mr. Prageeth, is an incredibly humble and gracious host who goes above and beyond to make his guests feel at home – truly a "home away from home" experience. The property is impeccably maintained and beautifully organized, with every little detail thoughtfully attended to. From the cozy and comfortable bedrooms to the spotless and well-equipped bathrooms, everything exudes quality and care. One of the highlights of our stay was the surprise celebration Mr. Prageeth helped us arrange ,going above and beyond to ensure it was special. He insisted that it be “on the house,” a gesture that speaks volumes about his generosity and dedication to guest satisfaction. Throughout our stay, Mr. Prageeth was always ready with a warm smile and eager to fulfill any requests we had. His personal touch and attention to detail make Prestiva Stay a standout destination. A special mention must go to their incredible freshwater fish curry – an absolute must-try! To top it off, Mr. Prageeth even arranged a portion for us to take home, ensuring we left with not just fond memories but also a taste of Prestiva to cherish. We wholeheartedly recommend Prestiva to anyone seeking a relaxing, well-cared-for getaway. With such a dedicated host and an outstanding property, you’re sure to have an unforgettable experience.

Prestiva Stay in Anuradhapura offers exceptional hospitality, clean facilities, and delicious food,

We had a wonderful two days stay at Prestiva Stay in Anuradhapura. We thoroughly enjoyed the experience, and couldn’t be more pleased with the hospitality. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, going out of their way to ensure we were comfortable and had everything we needed. The rooms were cozy and spotless, with the bathrooms being exceptionally clean, which added to our overall comfort. The highlight of our stay was the delicious food prepared by the chef — every dish was flavorful and beautifully presented, exceeding our expectations. For the quality of service and amenities provided, the stay was definitely worth the price. Prestiva Stay offered a perfect blend of comfort, cleanliness, and warm hospitality. We would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Anuradhapura and look forward to returning in the future!
