    Only mini con was lack of electrical outlets.

    We stayed there for 2 nights. The accomodiation and the staff were really great. The host was really nice and helpful and always eager to give us tips about our journeys. If i went to Anuradhapura i would seek this accomodation again.

    I had a wonderful stay at Sandakada Homestay in Anuradhapura. The room was very comfortable and well-kept, making it a relaxing place to unwind. The hosts, who are the owners of the property, were extremely kind and welcoming, and they even kindly helped us a lot in making the poojawa, which we truly appreciated. One of the highlights of the stay was the food, the delicious homemade meals gave us a real taste of Sri Lankan hospitality. The garden is also beautiful and adds a peaceful atmosphere to the homestay. Overall, it was a lovely experience, and I would happily recommend Sandakada Homestay to anyone visiting Anuradhapura.

    This is without a doubt the best place we stayed in our time in Sri Lanka. It is a beautiful property that is well maintained and has comfy rooms with everything you need. The family that run the honestly couldn’t be more helpful, from making us breakfast before our safari to giving us a lift late at night to Sigiriya. I really recommend you stay here.

    If you like local vibe with many interesting details perfectly paired in this warm home, we highly recommend choosing Sandakada Homestay. We stayed only for one night and I am sorry we didn't have more time to enjoy beautiful garden and nice energy of this place. Our host helped us arrange our visits around the city and also offered transportation to our next destination at reasonable price.

    The hosts were very friendly and helpful. When we arrived we got a cold towel and some refreshment. They helped us with our request and we could also have dinner there. We wanted a taxi to the Wilpattu Park for the next day and they arranged it for us. They also helped us finding a guide for a city tour. We really enjoyed our stay thanks to them!

    I had a truly wonderful experience at this homestay. From the moment I arrived, the hosts were incredibly warm and welcoming, immediately making me feel at home. Their hospitality was outstanding — always friendly, attentive, and eager to assist with anything I needed. The room and shared spaces were spotless and very well-maintained. The entire property had a cozy, inviting atmosphere, clearly reflecting the owners’ pride in offering a comfortable and clean environment for their guests. One of the highlights of my stay was the breakfast. Each morning, I was served a delicious selection of both Asian and English-style dishes. Everything was freshly prepared and full of flavor — a perfect start to the day. The homestay also offered convenient transportation services, which made exploring the area much easier, especially as a first-time visitor. Whether it was arranging transport or sharing helpful local tips, the hosts went above and beyond to ensure a smooth, stress-free experience. Overall, I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a clean, friendly, and well-serviced stay. I would gladly return!

    I had a wonderful one-day stay at Sandakada Homestay! From the moment I arrived, everything was well-organized and comfortable. The transport was excellent—on time, smooth, and very comfortable, which made the journey stress-free and enjoyable. The homestay itself was clean, cozy, and welcoming. The hosts were warm and hospitable, making me feel right at home even during a short visit. Every detail was thoughtfully taken care of, and the atmosphere was peaceful and relaxing. Highly recommend Sandakada Homestay for anyone looking for a short getaway with reliable transport and genuine hospitality. Looking forward to visiting again for a longer stay!

    During my recent trip to Anuradhapura, I was lucky enough to stay at Sandakada Homestay which is located in the heart of the ancient city. The location was incredible and the accommodation was peaceful and relaxing. I felt welcomed and well looked after. The room was spacious and airy and cool due to the excellent air conditioning. I slept well as the bed was comfortable and the surroundings were peaceful. Great bathroom with a good shower plenty of hot water and immaculately clean. One of the best parts of my stay was the food. The homestay provided personalized dining opposed to one menu. I had an incredible traditional curry, it was absolutely delicious, this is a must stay for food lovers. The hospitality at Sandakada Homestay was exceptional. All the staff were welcoming and polite, I felt safe and looked after. Me of my favourite features was the gardens surrounding the home stay, they were beautiful kept and like a little bit of paradise. I highly recommend Sandakada Homestay is a wonderful choice for anyone visiting Anuradhapura. I wish I had been able to stay longer and will return when I visit again.
