This place is truly a honeyland. The drive to the hotel offer beautiful views (see photo attached). We were met with great hospitality and kindness. The family was very welcoming, and their presence created a comfortable and homie atmosphere. The breakfast and dinner was great. Our room was in a new building on the property (see second photo below). It was big and luxurious, and exceeded our expectations. I would like to thank the Honeyland family again for our stay, and their kindness.

Customized food for vegetarian made by the owner. Very friendly .

Lovely authentic place. In our two weeks holiday with a lot of luxery resorts, this was the one we have the warmest feeling about. When you are looking for a not so touristic area, some magnificent views, a little farm life, and some great staff, go here. Oh and go for the Sri Lanken Kitchen, that’s better then the European:)

Cannot thank the staff enough. We had the best 7 days on Sri Lanka thanks to their amazing hospitality. The room was massive and we had 2 interconnected rooms that were very clean and well maintained. The food was incredible and well worth paying for half board. My kids asked if we could stay forever! This place will have a little place in our hearts and I honestly cannot recommend the place enough. Thank you

Definitely the best place we stayed at in Sri Lanka. Pradeep and his family - his little daugther tia was so cute - were super welcoming and taught us a lot about the Sri Lankan culture, the farm life and much more. The sunset tour and the farm tour were a big bonus! The food was delicious, the pool was the perfect cool down after a hot day. Also a very big shout out to Deshani, who was super friendly and answered all our questions, always with the biggest smile - fell like talking to a friend! We are definitely coming back soon!

The staff was amazing, very helpful and always smiling. The food provided was also delicious and worth the price.

From the moment we arrived, it was clear: this wasn’t just another stop — this was a place with soul. Hidden in a peaceful mango plantation, the villa is surrounded by nature’s quiet magic: birdsong, trees, and that deep stillness you can only find far from the noise of the world. The villa itself strikes the perfect balance between style and comfort. The pool is serene, the location ideal for exploring the cultural heart of Sri Lanka — Sigiriya, Pidurangala, Dambulla, and more, all easily reached by tuk-tuk. And the food? Anula’s cooking is pure magic. Every meal, bursting with authentic Sri Lankan flavor, felt like a warm hug — especially for our 9-year-old vegetarian daughter, who suddenly ate everything with joy. But what truly made Villa Mankani unforgettable were the people. Nalin — the heart and soul of this place. Yes, he’s the manager, but more than that, he’s the spirit of Villa Mankani. Kind, calm, generous — he made us feel truly seen and at home. We’ve met many wonderful people in Sri Lanka, but Nalin is in a league of his own. Binura — always warm, gentle, ready to help before you even know you need it. Anula — not just a cook, but a mama in spirit, with kindness in every word and every dish. The night guard — greeting us every evening with a smile that made us feel safe and cared for. Animals — three sweet, friendly dogs, and one tiny superstar: Ellie, the dachshund puppy who stole our daughter’s heart. Every morning began with, “Can I go see Ellie now?” When we left, there were tears… And then — the moment that left us speechless: as we were saying goodbye, Nalin quietly handed our daughter a gift — a soft little teddy bear to remember them by. That gesture, so simple and full of love, broke our hearts in the best way. Villa Mankani reminded us that true hospitality isn’t about luxury — it’s about humanity. And that the most unforgettable places are built not of bricks and mortar, but of hearts wide open. Thank you ❤️🙏!

We had a gorgeous time at Ruwan’s place. He is super accommodating, friendly, helpful and nice! The rooms are wonderful, quiet, with amazing views and very comfortable. Breakfast, lunch, dinner can be had there and it’s lovely! Highly recommended :)

Staff was friendly and always helpful Rooms were clean Restaurant and bar prices are bit high

We genuinely loved our stay at this beautiful hotel. It felt like coming home – not to one mom, but to many welcoming moms. All the staff took such good care of us and made sure we had the best time. They had great tips on sightseeing and booked a fair priced tuktuk to drive us around Dambulla. The buffet was varied and delicious; the room and garden were tidy, beautiful and clearly looked after; the bed was super comfortable. We really hope we can come back one day.
