I have just stayed 6 nights at Le Grand Meaulnes. The rooms are spacious and clean, the meals are well cooked and plentiful, and the staff could not be more helpful. It makes an excellent base for exploring the historic sites such as Anurhadapura and Polonnaruwa, and the staff can arrange a charming, skillful and safe driver. I recommend taking... More

Stayed for 2 nights and on both nights the shower heater was only working intermittently. On the first night we were told that the problem will be resolved the next day but it was not. Temperature at night hovers below 20C so showering without hot water was not a good experience. This was quite a letdown as we specifically requested... More

We really enjoyed our stay at Le Grand Meaulnes. We arrived quite tired from our day, walking all the stairs up to Dambulla caves and Sigiriya. Just the time to take a shower and our dinner was ready, so the kids could be in bed not too late. The dinner was excellent. People are really helpful, the dad speaks french.... More

We stayed one night and had a very good stay. The rooms are very big, clean. It is very nice to sit on the porch and have a drink after a long day of travelling. Paul is very helpful and good to talk to. They can arrange anything you ask. More

Wow! What a place! It was hard to find a reasonable accommodation in Habarana and I got very few replies to my emails from the guesthouse owners in Habarana. But one of the replies came from the owner of Le Grand Meaulnes, a very pleasant person living in Colombo, who called me twice just for asking if we are feeling... More

We had a great stay here for 2 nights. Although the owner wasn't there for the days we were, we very expertly looked after by Peter. And between the two of them they organised trips for us very successfully. They have a car and driver for people staying to use and it is a great place for being close to... More

We stayed at the Habarana Holiday Resort for 3 nights in August and really enjoyed it. Habarana is a good basis for visiting the cultural triangle, located not further than 1 hour-drive from all sites. Our room was spacious and clean, with mosquito net plus coils provided by the staff. We had dinner there for the 3 nights, and the... More

the town of Habarana is a crossroads with a few houses and the great advantage of being close to Minneraya National Park, Sigiriya and on the road to Trincomalee. Le Grand Meaulnes is a beautiful and hidden realities in this small town. The guesthouse offers spacious rooms, comfortable, bright and very clean. A comfortable sitting area outside the room. An...

If you stay at "Le Grand" you can feel like home: you will be welcome and provided with any sort of information you need. And if you are a reader of Alain Fournier you can have the chance to share nice talks (in a very good French!) with the nice owner. It is located out Habarana in a nice garden... More
