The place was in a convenient location and the host was an absolute legend with helping us. They've got bicycles for rent and a lot of general insider tips and tricks and local knowledge . The host could help in all ways.

“One cool calm night”
The welcome was very friendly, they gave me a huge room but I sticked with a smaller one with mosquito net. I received information about the area. It was for only one night but I appreciate it. It's a very calm place!

Vimal gave me a warm welcome and treated me with kind words and good hospitality. The place is good. Rooms are comfortable to stay and they're clean and well managed. He helped me to find a tuk tuk from railway station to his place. And found me a contact for scooter rental as well.

“Lovely stay with great hosts!”
Great location, just a few minutes outside Mannar town. Best rent a scooter and they can arrange that too. Quiet and comfortable rooms and great value for money. Wonderful friendly hosts. They went so far out of their way to let us check in at 5am when we arrived. Helped us with recommendations around. If you want local food try their food. Homemade tasty local cuisine.

“Charming home on Mannar Island”
The room and bathroom were very big so we had plenty of room to spread our things out. The bed was also very big and comfortable. The house was walking distance to a street with some supermarkets and restaurants. Vismal was a lovely host!
