Enoch Guest House

Clean and tidy

Authentic Mannar life-style and experience. Host was extremely kind, warm and supportive.

Nice place overall for the price.

We were asked to leave one hour before check out time because next guests coming. Everything else fine!

Lalee and Suba were warm and genuinely welcoming throughout our stay. The room was spotless and well maintained. The room, meal charges, and laundry rates were reasonable, and the service was excellent. The hosts were extremely helpful with any and all requests, making our stay smooth and stress-free.

Everything was lovely.

Lalee and Suba are the best hosts you can wish for. They are kind, humble, helpful and caring. It was great to talk with Lalee, and Suba is an amazing cook who made my best breakfast in Sri Lanka yet, and a wonderful dinner. The place itself is nice, two big rooms with a small kitchenette, with a balcony, and with a view on the garden with three mango trees. Fresh mangoes every breakfast! It's a quiet place, great for relaxing. I really felt at home!

It's too far to walk to the centre or the bus stop, but it's not a big problem, because tuktuks will be happy to take you there

le séjour s'est bien passé, la chambre était très propre et l'hôte est très aimable.

A wonderful, warm welcome from Lalee and Suba. Superb food and excellent conversation about recent history and politics of the island - the only pity is that we didn't stay longer. A delight all round!

Nothing at all.

The Family are some of the most nicest helpful humans I’ve met

Nothing

The cooking is amazing The couple is really nice 😊

Don’t expect luxury but the room is confortable and it suited us

Wat een lieve familie! We zijn heel gastvrij ontvangen met een glas frisse limonade en mango uit eigen tuin. Het appartement heeft 2 fijne bedden, een goed werkende airco, 2 plafond ventilatoren, en een aparte ruimte met een zithoekje, waterkoker en spoelbakje. 's Avonds had Suba heerlijk voor ons gekookt. Mocht je naar maar gaan dan is dit een heerlijke en rustige plek buiten het centrum om te verblijven.

Er viel niets tegen!

Merci à Lalee et Suba pour leur accueil chaleureux. Ce sont des hôtes d’exceptions. - Le logement est très propre, bonne climatisation. - La possibilité de petit déjeuner et dîner était parfaite surtout que la nourriture était très bonne ! Notre séjour n’aurait pas été le même si nous n’avions pas logé chez eux. A bientôt

The owner was a very friendly person. By the time we reached the location there was a power outage and he was trying very hard to facilitate us. There was a problem with the location data provided in the Booking.com and the owner was kind enough to come and find us. Later we found we should have just follow Google map which clearly show the correct location. We liked the living area that can separated from the bed room. Thank you for the hospitality and the delicious Mango. We enjoyed verymuch 🤩

Large room with an additional seating area. Very good AC plus a fan. While the room does not get much natural light, there was very good lighting. The balcony was narrow, but shady and there always was a little wind, which made it very pleasant to sit there. Food was excellent, Suba‘s home cooking was among the best of our trip - and there were even mangoes straight from the garden. Our hosts, Lalee and Suba, were lively. They did everything to ensure that our stay was comfortable; our talks with them were very interesting.

Wifi was unreliable. There was leakage in the bathroom.

Peaceful, rural experience of Mannar. Simple, clean, warm, friendly - and yes, delicious local food. Every corner of Sri Lanka is so different and so special and I'm happy to get a glimpse of Mannar life.

Lalee and Suba were beautiful. They were so welcoming. Suba’s cooking is 5 star. Was wonderful learning about Sri Lanka and Lalee’s family.

Coming from Australia we drink water cold and we have found throughout Sri Lanka that water is drank at room temperature

Excellent communication throughout the booking and while staying at Enoch Guest House where it's location is around 4kms away from Mannar Central Bus Station. My highlight was Suba's cooking skills and the friendliness of the whole family. We had a great stay and experienced many things l was dreaming, since my last visit to Mannar in 1967. Lalee and Suba were great hosts and checking up on everything constantly of our requests. He organised a very friendly and reasonably charged us for our trips to see birds, pier, Adam and Eve's burial ground, Dried fish places and the famous Baobab tree by tuk tuk driver Venkat for us during our stay. Suba made Puri, String Hoppers, Thosai, Creamed Hoppers, Crabs and Prawns for us without any fuss on our request showing her skills. Ceiling fans and air conditioner kept us cool as Mannar got very hot during the day. Would visit again and again.

Sehr Gastfreundliche und zuvorkommende Familie und hilfsbereit. Das Zimmer war sauber und das Essen gut.

Strand und Umgebung sind extrem zugemüllt.

The family is super friendly. As we were arriving late, they offered us dinner, and the cost of the set menu was fair. The food tasted really good. The room was comfortable, spacious and quiet. Perfect for a homestay. The location was easy to find. They also arranged a tuk-tuk for us. Provided enough water to support during the heat.

Die Hosts nehmen sich Zeit und setzen sich für gemeinsame Gespräche zu den Reisenden, die Hosts suchen nach dem Besuch weiterhin Kontakt zu den Gästen und halten diesen aufrecht, großes, zweiteiliges Zimmer, sehr gutes Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis bzgl. Abendbrot (500 Rupien p.P, frisches leckeres Obst und heimische Küche), Parkmöglichkeit für TukTuk im Gelände, Bügeleisen, Wasserkocher vorhanden

Kaltwasserdusche (was aber für den Preis völlig okay ist)

Big bedroom with 2 beds + fan and AC Little living room with a large sofa and kitchenette with fan Serviability and disponibility of the hosts

Lalee & Suba are wonderful hosts, making you feel so welcome as soon as you arrive. Lalee speaks very good English & is very knowledgable. Meals were delicious & plentiful.

Unless you’re bird watching, there isn’t a great deal around.

Liked everything about it. Stayed one night at Enoch guest house on our way to Jaffna. Should've stayed more there's lots of things to do and see as first timers. Specially the experience with the lovely family, couldn't have done more for us... Separate entrance to the lovely spacious room, had a lovely dinner barbecue fish, rice and curry. Nothing negative about my short stay. Big thank you to the lovely couple, made us welcomed after our very long tiring day.

We loved everything about our stay with Lalee and Suba. They were so caring and interested in making sure that we enjoyed our time together the fullest. It was hard for us to leave as we felt so at home there after our 6 day stay. We were very comfortable in our spacious rooms. We really enjoyed the meals that they prepared for us each evening and we always enjoyed talking to them after and learning more about life in Mannar from them. Lalee was very helpful in making arrangements for tuk tuks when we needed them and we knew we could always call him if we had any problems. We were so grateful for Lalee’s help with finding the flamingoes. It was an amazing experience to see them. There are lots of different sights to see and experience in this area. We very highly recommend Enoch Homestay. We will be back for sure when we are next in Sri Lanka.

There was nothing that we didn’t like!

Good hospitality.

Bed linen.

Very nice hosts, spacious room and good price.

No mosquito net present, but the fan also keeps the mosquitos away

My boyfriend and I spent such a lovely stay in this guesthouse while our visit to Mannar. The house and garden are really charming and the room spacious, with everything you’d need. The family was so welcoming, we enjoyed a lot the dinner they kindly prepared for us (a really good one!) and the conversation afterwards- we learned a lot about Sri Lanka and north culture and was a really nice exchange. Cannot recommend this place enough! Thank you guys 😄

La amabilidad, y la buena disposición para todo Son una pareja encantadora y nos han ayudado mucho con el tuk tuk Muy recomendable por la buena gente que es Y la comida deliciosa Muchas gracias

Todo. Lo recomendamos absolutamente. La habitacion es grande y comoda..La familia que lo atiende encantadora.Ella, una cocinera estupenda que nos hizo un par de cenas y dedayunos para chuparse los dedos. El, amable, y atento a todos los detalles. Nos hemos sentido en familia. Muchas gracias de corazon.

We booked the enoch guesthouse because we wanted to spend a night in the private Mannar on our trip to the north of the island. It was the best choice as the room was huge as was the bathroom and it was very clean and had air conditioning and a ceiling fan. I didn't mean to write anything about the amazing family that runs the accommodation, others have written about it before me, but I must say that we had the invaluable help of Lallee in the problem we faced with our rented tuk tuk and finally the problem was solved and we continued the trip to the end without any other problems.. There is a small parking area where you can leave your vehicle.Please note that the accommodation is located a little outside the center but in a quiet neighborhood.

Les hôtes sont accueillants. Ils prennent le temps de discuter avec nous. Ils nous ont beaucoup appris sur l’histoire du pays et la culture sri lankaise. Suba cuisine divinement bien. L’endroit est calme et la chambre est propre. C’est un endroit idéal pour séjourner à Mannar.

Le petit déjeuner est délicieux et très copieux.

The location is not near the city. The staff is very friendly and helpful. Lalee and Suba just guide us where to visit and how to spend the time in Mannar. The breakfast is nice, and we had vegetarian breakfast. Only thing if it would be little warm would have been more enjoyable. any way it was nice meal.

Shower in the bathroom need to fix, which ca be use without holding by hand, it has to fix on the wall which water has to flow freely.

Nous avons été reçus d'un accueil chaleureux et familial autour d'un thé malgré notre arrivée tardive. La chambre est très grande, spacieuse et au calme, avec un accès indépendant. Qualité de la literie et hygiène en général irréprochables. Ils proposent un service petit-déjeuner sri lankais délicieux et aux quantités parfaites. Les hôtes maîtrisent très bien l'anglais.

Het gezin waar we verbleven was in één woord : geweldig! Lief, warm, behulpzaam en gastvrij. We hebben steeds lekker ontbeten en gegeten en daarna gekletst met Lalee en Suba over van alles en nog wat. We zijn erg tevreden over de ruimte die we deze twee nachten voor onszelf hadden. Het was een mooie afsluiting om bij dit gezin te mogen verblijven aan het einde van onze reis.

If you visit Mannar, we highly reccomend staying at Enoch Guest House. Both Lalee and Suba overflow wiith warmth and happiness. You can't help but to feel warm and happy as well in their company. The home cooked food is prepared with love. You like spicy? Suba prepares a flavorful hot meal. Dont like spice much? Suba will create a beautuful mild dish. The room we stayed in was spacious and comfortable. We had plenty of privacy and had a great night of rest when we were there. I appreciated0 learning about history of the area through Lalaas eyes. Thank you Lalee, Suba and family for a wonderful taste of Mannar!

There is nothing to complain about.

I had a lovely two days here, the hosts were very lovely and down for a chat. The dinners they made were delicious :)

Very big and clean room. Super friendly family. Very tasty dinner and breakfast. Good place to explore Mannar.

Not applicable for this place .

The hosts were very warm and welcoming. A wonderful dinner was served despite the fact we hadn’t been able to inform them earlier in the day that we would require an evening meal. The curry leaves and mangoes were picked from the trees on the property. The breakfast was freshly prepared and very tasty. Our hosts were extremely helpful with places to visit locally and our onward travel arrangements.

We were very happy with everything.

A super friendly and welcoming homestay with a private upstairs area that includes two beds, a cozy living room, a small kitchen space, and even air conditioning. The hosts made me feel right at home and even arranged a driver to show me around the area. Dinner was absolutely delicious — clearly made with so much love and care. Highly recommended!

Everything was just perfect.

Beautifully maintained, clean and spacious. I felt incredibly welcomed, safe and cared for in this homestay. Lalee and Suba helped me with transportation and other necessities. I am very thankful and grateful for them and their property.

Nothing

We loved this home stay and were made to feel very welcome by the lovely family. They helped us organise a tour and cooked a delicious evening meal and equally delicious breakfast. We only stayed one night but it will be memorable.

Nothing.

We had such a special stay at Enoch - we left with beautiful memories and new friends! The food was OUTSTANDING, the hospitality amazing and the room was uber spacious and clean. It was really easy to organise renting a moto via Lalee too. The family taught us so much about their lives and went above and beyond to make us feel at home. We couldn’t recommend staying here more - thank you so much ☺️

Our stay at this cozy homestay was absolutely delightful! The hosts were very welcoming and made us feel right at home from the moment we arrived. One of the highlights of our stay was the tasty homemade breakfast—it was fresh, flavorful, and the perfect way to start the day. The room was impressively big and came equipped with thoughtful amenities like a kettle, water bottles, and a drying rack, which added to our comfort and convenience. The location also offered easy access to nearby attractions, making it incredibly convenient for us to explore. The hosts went above and beyond, even providing us with great food recommendations that turned out to be fantastic! It was truly a memorable experience, and we can’t recommend this homestay enough to anyone looking for a warm and welcoming retreat.

We had a wonderful, short stay in Mannar at Lalee and Suba's beautiful home. The host, Lalee and his family stay on the ground floor while we were hosted on the entire first floor, with a private entrance. The rooms are clean, spacious and there is a small kitchenette and living room with a small quaint balcony. The day we were checking out, an air conditioner was being installed at the premises. The family does a wonderful job of providing a comfortable stay for guests.

The internet speeds was pretty poor but that could be because of low coverage in general on Mannar Island.

The room is big with a space apart with a table, sofa, tap and boiler. Big room with AC and very clean. Suba and Lalee were very helpful with us for everything. They arranged us a scooter for rent for 2 days, and helped us to get informations from the bus timetables. Finally, the food prepared by Suba was delicious, and various for a reasonable price.

This was the best homestay experience we had in Sri Lanka! Lalee stayed in touch with us even before we arrived in Mannar, which helped us plan our trip smoothly. From the moment we stepped in, we felt at home. Their hospitality comes straight from the heart. Lalee, Subha, and their two children were incredibly kind and welcoming. Don’t miss out on Subha’s cooking—it was a special experience to try authentic Tamil cuisine. If you're looking for a place to stay, enjoy great food, and experience true Mannar hospitality, this is the perfect spot. Thank you for hosting us and making our trip unforgettable!

Just Wonderful!!!❤️ What a joy, What a Fantastic family, We have stayed in many places from luxury 5 star to basic all over the world, But this is truly an honour to stay with this Beautiful family, Lovely spacious room, no AC but fan kept us cool enough though! Please have an evening meal DELICIOUS!!! Breakfast also..Great to talk to the family about the history and their lives we learn so much. Totally recommend you stay here, experience this wonderful home with the beautiful family ❤️They will help you with everything. Thank you so much, Laylee & Suba. From Gill & Tony Elvis Skingle

The owners were very friendly and the food was great. The rooms were spacious, clean and comfortable and were very good value for money.

We had an amazing stay! The couple that runs the place are the friendliest people ever, and they have good recommendations as for what to see in the surroundings. The room is very spacious and clean, and also nice and cool in the night with no mosquitos. Make sure to stay for dinner, and you will not regret it. We had the best food here since staying in Sri Lanka with everything being freshly prepared by the lovely lady. 10/10!

A very spacious bright room with extra sitting room. It is comfortable. The hosts are the most lovely, friendly people. Dinner and breakfast are excellent. Definitely a very good place to stay in Mannar.

I was looking for a calm and quiet place to stay in Mannar and Enoch Guest House was the perfect place. It's a very clean, comfortable room with the balcony view. The trees provided shade and a cool environment. No mosquitoes. Food was prepared well, and was a treat. We had string hoppers for dinner, idli, pancakes, sweet hoppers for breakfast and wonderful rice and curry for lunch. The hosts were kind and friendly and I feel we have made new friends fromt his few days experience. I will surely come back to visit and I recommend the stay.

Very comfortable place to stay with a lovely family :) thanks for your kind hospitality!

Laylee and Suba were the loveliest hosts you could wish for. They welcomed us with smiles and never stopped smiling or laughing in our company. They run this completely authentic homestay (the room is the first floor of thier house and is how they earn a living) with warmth and a keen to desire to enure you have a lovely time. The room is spacious with a small seperate seating area with a sink and kettle and coffee table which was nice to relax in.. they provide an iron and ironing board too which was great.. and a mosquito net and free filtered water. There is no air-conditioning but the ceiling fans kept us cool.. The breakfast and dinners were exceptionally good ..we were especially impressed with the grilled fish..was resturant quality and totally delicious.. Laylee organised a lovely tuk tuk tour and also negotiated a great price for our onward transfer.. look no further if you want to have the best Sri Lankan homestay experience .. we were sad to leave..

We were only here a short while but the stay was perfect. A very friendly familiy that run their guesthouse with love and attention. The room was big and comfortable, a place to sit in the front and the a bedroom attached. Dinner cooked by Suba is fabulous so dont miss out on her rice & curry. They arranged a tuktuk for us so that we were on time for the 4:40 train in the morning. If you come to Mannar, look no further and stay here.

Nothing.

Excellent value simple but comfortable place to stay with lovely friendly hosts and amazingly tasty food. The sitting area in the room was an unexpected bonus. Great quiet location from which to go bird watching in the Mannar area. We loved our stay here!

There are a few mosquitoes in the grounds, but our room stayed mosquito free.

Everything about this place is exceptional, the owner is one of the most kind... very helful and always been attentive, The room is big very airy and surprisingly no mosquito, Ive had a really pleasent stay and i suggest this to evetyone

Nothing i could mention

Absolutely fantastic stay at Enoch Guest House! Mr. Lalee and his lovely family were incredible hosts, making us feel so welcome. The property was clean, comfortable with a nice sitting area, and even had an iron and ironing board which was a great bonus. Breakfast was delicious, and they even went above and beyond catering to our dietary needs. We loved the chats after breakfast and were so touched to find our car had been washed! Highly recommend visiting Mannar and staying here. Thank you for everything especially your special ginger tea as we requested!

A very spacious and clean room with a lovely family who were helpful and welcoming.

Nothing.

A lovely home with mango trees and chickens in the front yard. The accommodation upstairs is clean, private, comfortable, and very spacious, with a sitting room, a queen bed and a double bed that can fit two kids or two small adults, an ironing board and iron. But I would come back because of the generosity and hospitality of the hosts, who are a lovely and welcoming family that made us feel like we were at home. They also make really good food and help with any local arrangements.

lovely people and place. the family is very welcoming and makes you feel at home. the room is big and has everything you may need for your stay. the homemade for is delicious as well!! if you're looking for a real local experience, it is the place to stay

The Ennoch Guesthouse exceeded all my expectations. I have traveled all over India and it is by far one of the best accommodations for families and backpackers. Kitchenette, iron, attention to detail comforting. family run, very hearty, I spent a wonderful 5 days. On the one hand you enjoy very clean, well-equipped rooms with privacy, while you get excellent help with tours and information about the area. You can enjoy wonderful nature, whether traditional food, village life, Mannar City, or the beach. All in one place. I had wonderful tours put together by the host family for birdwatching, Talaimannar Pier, colonial heritage, Hindu heritage, suspension bridge, donkey farm, deserted beautiful beaches, all at a great price, and I didn't have to worry about anything. The absolute highlight was a beach turtle and the freshest, tastiest grilled fish in a long time. In short, I would love to visit this lovely guesthouse again.

Very spacious room in a quiet area with good access to sightseeing points and the city. We looooved the homecooked dinner! Best! And the familiy is so incredible sweet and helpful. Thanks for hosting us <3 Jojo from Germany & Sach from India

It was a wonderful stay and was well looked after by Lalee and his sweet family. Place well designed, Spacious rooms. Quite and peaceful place surrounded by trees………. had all you could wish to make it comfortable feel like home. Great and Delicious home cooked food! Wow place to stay again!

Very friendly family, and the property was clean and good, and had enough space for a family of five. The breakfast was good and they were kind enough to make special dishes for us.

What an incredible family. Book in here early to avoid being disappointed as they only have one room at the moment. The family are kind, generous, welcomed us into their home and went above and beyond. We had dinner and breakfast here and both were delicious. We loved chatting with the family after dinner and even woke up to our car being washed.. come visit Mannar and stay at Enoch 😍

I had an amazing time at Suba and Lalee’s place. There are those extremely kind and generous guests that you will remember from your trip in Sri Lanka. I felt warmly welcomed and very safe as a female solo traveler. They are very helpful, you will have some good chats about what it is like in Sri Lanka, amazing diner and breakfast, the room is very clean and new… They also organise tuktuk tours to go to the top of the island for a very decent price. Nandri to all the family, take care 🙏🏻

Simply, very clean, super spacious room (upstairs with a big room, good bathroom, extra room with kitchen bench, sink and kettle plus a sofa and table), balcony. Very private up stairs with a good fan in both rooms. Fantastic family, very welcoming and helpful. Great dinner cooked by Suba the lady of the house.

nothing

A nice spacious annex above the family home. It has a large bedroom and sitting area with a kettle. The host family were lovely and helpful, they kindly booked me onto a bus to my next location and arranged Tuk Tuks when needed. They also offer a cooked breakfast and/or dinner at a very reasonable price. This was helpful as the accommodation is not close to any restaurants. The location is about an hour walk from town and a drive from other sites. Ideal if you have your own transports, but using the local bus and Tuk Tuks was also easy enough.

The room was really spacious. In addition to the main room you have another room with a couch and a table and a kettle (to prepare tea or coffee). Perfect for a smooth wake up. The family is really kind. We strongly recommend it We stayed 2 nights .

Nothing.

Nice rooms and family absolutely fantastic I recommend 100%

An AC might be a good thing ?

Had a wonderful stay and was well looked after by such sweet family. Place well designed, room had all you could wish for to make it feel like home. Great home cooked food just like my mum’s cooking!

This is an exception guest house. Easy to get to and facilities were secure, super clean and spacious. Our hosts Lalee and Sabu were extremely welcoming and we learnt a lot of history and the current day from our chats on arrival and over breakfast. Advice on where to go and what to do in Mannar was appreciated. Mannar was very enjoyable and an ideal place to break the tuktuk drive to Jaffna.

Nothing - it was perfect!

The family who run this guest house provide wonderful hospitality. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend staying here as the family make you feel very welcome and provide a very clean and comfortable room. The breakfast was delicious Sri Lankan food. If you are in Mannar and you have your our own transport and enjoy staying with local people then this is the place to stay!

A great place to relax. Spacious, clean and a lovely host.

The family were so lovely! The room was clean and tidy, very lovely!

Nothing about the property! There was a small stretch of road which was hard to drive down but this is not the families fault! But something to be aware off!

The hosts Mr. & Mrs. Laleen were very welcoming and helpful and made us feel like home, the home stay annex was quite spacious and met all our requirements. home made meals were provided on request. The big mango tree on the property provided much needed shade during the searing heat which was the only discomfort.

nothing.

Great stay here. Booked for two nights and stayed for four nights. Beautiful kind family who were always available to help and so friendly. Immaculately clean accommodation. Large bedroom and shower room with seperate adjoinig room with sette kettle. Large surrounding balcony with great gardens. Cycle to town centre in 15 minutes. Such a relaxing place to stay and incredible value for money. Highly recommend this beautiful place. Thank you for your kindness.

No faults

Very friendly and warm family. We felt so welcomed. The room is spacious and comfortable and the food is delicious.

Amazing place to stay with lovely family. I felt very welcome and they are so friendly. The room is spacious and has everything you may need. Food was delicious too. I would love to come back. Cheers, Jakub

Very friendly host Willing to help Very caring

Very friendly host, excellent home cooked food.

Hosts Lal, Suba and their kids were amazing. They were able to give us delicious home cooked food in the regional style which was greatly appreciated. They were the warmest hosts imaginable and gave us all the local info. Food was excellent. Thank you for an amazing stay.

Air con would have made it perfect, but realise this is not possible right now.

This is a family run homestay style accommodation, on the first floor above the main accommodation and reached by a flight of outdoor stairs. It's a single room with an en-suite bathroom and a separate sitting area. The owners went over and above to make our stay comfortable and enjoyable. They arranged rental bicycles at our request and prepared home cooked delicious and authentic Sri Lankan breakfast and dinner for us. The place is on the outskirts of Mannar town away from road traffic and therefore very quiet. We have seen the locals using TukTuks and they are easy to get if required.

We can't think of anything.

A great place for a short or a longer stay. A room with your own separate small sitting-area with a sofa and a table.. Possible to bring and make your own te/coffee(water-kettle) and a zink to wash-up. Balcony. A great host-family!!

There is nothing to complain about. A great place to stay while exploring Mannar island.

This beautiful place has everything that you're looking for in a guesthouse. The room is spacious, it's private and is kept immaculate. But perhaps most important is the lovely family running it. They are warm-hearted, polite and caring people that make you feel at home right away. We originally booked for 1 night but decided to book an extra night (we would have loved to stay longer but unfortunately we visited everything Mannar had to offer). Definitely book a night or two with them when you're in the area or on your way to Jaffna. You won't regret it!

Everything was great

The family was very helpfull, kind and so nice. I booked the room for one night, but they where so great I stayed one more night. Location is at uptown, so you will need tuk tuk or scooter. Scooter you can rent from the owner. Good guest house for those, who need calm place.

They were very helpful and comfortable place.
