Comfortable stay in beautiful villa

The villa has a beautiful architecture and has a charming garden where we could spot wild peacocks or a varan which was exciting! The owner is very attentive. He served us amazing huge breakfast and even lent us his bikes for free. The room is spacious, bed is huge and comfortable and everything was spotless clean. Great value for money!

Wonderful stay!

This is a gorgeous house with high ceilings, beautiful old furniture, spotless linen and fluffy towels, a great shower and the nicest people. The breakfast is great, fresh and a lot. Ideal, quiet location: a pleasant 10 min walk to the beach. The owner recommended us a fabulous boat safari. We had the best time, even played badminton in the garden!

We loved the spacious,elegant and spotlessly clean rooms.Comfortable beds and wonderful shower.There was a spacious guest shared area with tables,chairs and a balcony overlooking the large garden with it's lovely array of local tropical plants and fruit trees. The hosts were very attentive and accomodating with regard to providing breakfasts and supporting us with travel and other arrangements going out of their way to lift us or arrange taxis. The beach was about a 15-20 min walk away where you could find a number of good small restaurants.Great for swimming and walking along. Good place to do a river safari.

Nice place

A wonderful, quiet place. The hosts are wonderful people, they welcomed us like family, showed us around, and told us everything. They helped us choose local fruits and organize a safari on the Bentota River. They also prepared a delicious breakfast for us, which we booked as an optional extra. If you're interested in a guesthouse stay, I highly recommend it. Thank you.

The place was a bliss,away from the hustle buzzle of the city and after a long hectic but enjoyable day tour. The host Jayavi was very humble and helpful. A must visit homely stay, away from home. The whole place is beautifully done with lot of antic wooden Furniture. The best part was the tall, huge but simply awesome Coconut trees, lust green plants, the lush grass, the birds chirping and the lovely sky above, Very relaxing and refreshing and neatly & aestheticslly kept place at a very reasonable price. Thank you very much

Fantastic stay in a stunning room with AC and a spacious garden for a great value.

We recently had the pleasure of staying at Mishthana Canal Resort and we had a fantastic time. The design and decor of the room was stunning. We had an excellent stay, as the room was very clean, spacious, and quiet. The bed was comfortable and luxurious, made of high-quality linen. The AC in our room worked well and we had a great night’s sleep. Our children had a wonderful time exploring the huge garden adjacent to the canal. We even saw a wild peacock walking freely there. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming. The location was quite close to the beach, restaurants and other amenities.

Friendly, comfortable stay in beautiful surroundings.

Absolutely amazing place. The owners were so lovely and really attentive - they even gave us complimentary drinks and fruits from the garden and called us when there were monkeys and birds around. Was in a beautiful setting at one with nature but still just a short walk to shops and restaurants. The room, bathroom and balconies couldn’t have been nicer. Best place we’ve stayed at in Sri Lanka :)

A cozy, peaceful escape with wonderful people and great value – we can’t wait to return again.

This was our second time staying at Mishthana Canal Resort, and it truly felt like coming back home. The peaceful surroundings, comfortable and spotless rooms, and the warm hospitality from the staff made our stay so special. For the price, everything was absolutely perfect, and we couldn’t have asked for more.

Everything was perfect! The hospitality, cleanliness, and peaceful surroundings were beyond our expectations. A truly relaxing stay — highly recommended! Everything was exactly as advertised on Booking.com, with no surprises. What you see is truly what you get — or even better!

We had a unique and one-of-a-kind experience we don't think of getting anywhere else ever.

What I liked most was the kindness of friendliness of the fellow local tourists who stayed with us. There were three ladies who became very friendly with us and we shared our food with them. It was a unique experience.
