Traveller reviews

“Superb”
16 Jan 2025
A lovely family that welcomes you as if you’re part of their own. They are incredibly kind and open-hearted. The breakfasts were delicious, with a choice of either Western or local options. They also offer bike rentals, which is the best way to explore the area since it’s quite a large complex. The location is very convenient, right next to the historic site.

“Such lovely people. 100% recommend.”

Incredibly friendly and helpful host and family, with an adorable dog. We rented bikes which was very handy for polonnaruwa, the rooms were great, comfy, with fans and A/C, everything very clean. Rooms had bathrooms as well, which were clean and great! Area was very close to the old town and ancient ruins which felt very authentic (but also they have bikes so you can easily cycle to other areas). And did I mention the hosts were amazing because they were the best. They offered us dinner (which we sadly missed but Mr.punsiri's kitchen around the corner was 10/10) but got a delicious Sri Lankan breakfast.

We had a truly wonderful stay at Sanctuary Cove in Polonnaruwa. From the moment we arrived, the warm and welcoming hosts made us feel completely at home. The generous breakfast was a real treat, offering a wide range of fresh and delicious options to kickstart the day. The room was comfortable, spotlessly clean, and well-equipped, and the peaceful surroundings provided the perfect escape after a day of sightseeing. What really stands out about this place is that it offers far more than value for money. With excellent service, a tranquil atmosphere, and genuine attention to detail, it truly is a hidden gem in Polonnaruwa. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a memorable and relaxing stay.

“Nice and welcoming homestay”

Nice and comfortable rooms (especially No 3+4), good mattress, AC+fan, very clean everywhere, modern bathroom with hot shower, small place to sit outside, very welcoming, super nice, helpful, caring hosts - Wasata & Saman and dog Lilly. We could easily park our Tuktuk on their premises. Walkable distance to 2 restaurants. Close to ticket counter for Ancient City.

“Very good”

Great location. Very close to the main square of the old city. At walking distance from the Polinnaruwa ancient town complex. Many shops nearby for all essentials. Room was basic but comfortable. The owner dropped me to bus station for my onwards journey. Overall, comfortable stay.

“Very pleasant.”

The couple that owns the place is very hospitable, they even picked us up from the train station and took us to our next place for little money. Breakfast was delicious!
