“Amazing time in Ahangama”
+Maro Garden is the BEST place my partner and I have ever stayed! Everything about the hotel is perfect, Maria is the best host ever. I could not recommend staying here more, everyone should stay here once in their life. We will 100% be back, can’t wait!

“The perfect home from home❤️”
+We absolutely loved our stay and genuinely didn’t want to leave! What makes this place so special is Maria. She is an incredible host who made us feel completely at home from the moment we arrived. The breakfasts were outstanding and unlike anything we’ve experienced before. Every morning Maria prepared something different using her own creative recipes and fresh local ingredients. The variety and amount of food were incredible! The property itself is beautiful, with a lovely pool and common area surrounded by nature and wildlife, including monkeys. Our room was spotless, cleaned every day and extremely comfortable. The bed was honestly one of the best we’ve ever slept in! A truly special place with an amazing host. We already can’t wait to come back!

“More than a stay, it felt like coming home”
+Beautiful stay in every aspect. Green yet modern, super clean, minimalist, and peaceful, with a beautiful pool view. The breakfast was delicious every day, with something different each morning and freshly cut fruits. Truly such a lovely place to stay! Maria Now let’s talk about Maria, the owner and host, whom I booked after reading so many lovely reviews about her on both Booking.com and Google. I know everyone said it feels like home, but for me, it felt like my grandma’s home full of passion, pure love, warmth, selflessness, and playfulness. Thank you so much for making my first solo trip unforgettable. I’m going to miss you like I’ve known you forever, and I truly can’t wait to come back. 🤍
−Honestly, nothing! Everything was lovely and I had a wonderful stay.

“The perfect retreat with the most amazing host”
+Everything, we loved the setting, the design, Maria the host was a stand out as well as her lovely pets. Positioned very close to the lake with beautiful views. Maria helped us get a local tuktuk driver so took us to the beach and back in no time. The breakfast Maria made each morning was delicious using the freshest ingredients. Everything was modern, clean and aesthetically appealing pleasing with stunning jungles views and a beautiful swimming pool
−There’s nothing we didn’t like

“Highly memorable stay in a beautiful & design hotel”
+This has to be one of my most memorable stays from Booking.com. Maria (the owner) created this fabulous place, nestled in a quiet area of Ahangama, with such good taste. Everything is well thought of, and every detail contributes to creating this unique atmosphere in Maro Garden where you immediately feel at home. Just as in the pictures, it is really beautiful, and energetic, and the 4 rooms only of the property allow for a quiet environment. Also, Maria herself cooks a different breakfast menu everyday, that is so tasteful and original. She is always ready to have a good chat about anything, and she is such a joyful person. I would 200% stay here again, and can only recommend to anyone staying in Ahangama to stay at Maria’s Maro Garden! Thanks again Maria for making it so special!
−Literally nothing.

“Unique experience and absolutely the best :)”
+We loved this place very much! Everything was just perfect and unforgettable --- the artistic and beautiful gardening, the stylish and clean room, the lovely pool and dining area, and, the wonderful Mariya :) Things are only beyond your expectation here, Mariya cooks amazing breakfast, with thoughtful design and a warm heart. The arrangements in the room are also very considerate, even with toothbrushes, shower sponge and slippers, which are not offered in general in SriLanka. We loved the plants of the garden, the lighting of the room, and specially, the wise & sweet conversation we had with Mariya. Highly recommended to everyone who is searching for uniqueness. Mariya and her aesthetic philosophy will not disappoint you in any aspect. And "feeling like home" is just a basic compliment to this place---- we felt impressed, refreshed, filled with good energy and enlightened by lovely humankind.
