Mailagama Cinnamon Residence (MCR) is situated in a peaceful, area in Sellakatargama surrounded by paddy fields and a view of the sacred mountain Wadahiti Kanda, in the distance. With its simple beginnings as a beautiful abode amidst a plantation, we’ve done much over the years to make it what it is today. Our belief in creating a perfect blend of nature, and human endeavor is continuing to this day. Beyond the continuing, it’s the dedicated staff who nurture the essence of MCR. It’s their authenticity and commitment that leaves smiles in every guest. Enjoy freshly prepared meals, go on safari, hike, visit the sacred pilgrim sites, and enjoy the abundance of hospitality of our friendly and helpful staff.

MCR has five beautifully appointed bedrooms with all amenities, including attached toilets, hot water, AC, TV, and protective fly mesh. MCR is an ideal location to visit the Yala National Wildlife Park. We provide takeaway meals to enjoy while inside the park.

I am a retired medical officer and my husband is an ex-tea planter. We take extra care to make sure that our guests have a memorable stay. We take pride in pioneering cinnamon cultivation in the area and introducing an environment-friendly, profitable alternate crop, to the villagers in the area. Our hobbies are agriculture and horticulture. In addition, we help needy children in numerous ways to pursue their educational goals.

Mailagama is a quiet agricultural village situated in the deep south of Sri Lanka, away from the busy Kataragama town.
