Good
Pros:

The staff were very helpful and friendly. The room was good - with a nice bathroom and aircon. Easy walking distance to the cafes for breakfast and the beach!

Cons:

The location is on a busy road, so bring some earplugs! The hotel was having some paving work done when we were there, and this will create a nice seating area when finished

Very familiar, warm welcome, great stay
Pros:

I stayed there only for two weeks but I really liked it. The accommodation is in a good location in Weligama. Beach not far away and restaurants around the corner. To the hosts: I received a very warm welcome and was able to contact them at any time, even with concerns unrelated to the accommodation. I felt very comfortable!

Nice spot for budget travellers

Sweet place run by a lovely family who welcomed us with delicious ginger tea and were generally just very kind. Good location next to some great cafes and surf spots.

Our room smelled strongly of damp and didn’t feel super private.

Would highly recommend Mango Shade. The family looked after me and welcomed me as if I was part of the family. Amazing home cooked Sri Lankan meals. Very close to the beach. I extended my stay multiple times and will definitely return someday!

Superb
Pros:

The position right next to the beach so we could walk from the surf school in a couple of minutes, the room was big and clean and there was a huge balcony shared with the other 1st floor room.

The staff was really nice: they prepared a welcome tea as we arrived and purchased a kettle so we could make coffee in the morning. They also provided an addictional string in the balcony so we could try to dry our clothes.

The bed was big and comfortable.

I definitely recommend Mango Shade and would love to be back one day.
