It was really a pleasure to be here,it was the cleanest and most comfortable stay in our 3 weeks journey on European standards. The young couple is super friendly and helpful. In the evening we enjoyed quite sitting at the terrace in the middle of the jungle. Just don't forget to have mosquito spray.Thank you guys again!

Clean, spacious room, everything is new and well-functioning. Hot water in the shower is great, bed is very big and comfortable. It’s also very quiet and has beautiful views from the balcony. The staff also were very friendly, helped us organise a tuktuk to Sigiriya and laundry. We very much enjoyed our stay

We stayed 2 nights in a golden ayur eco villa which was well-priced and the rooms were comfortable, a calm place with an herbal plant surrounding our room. They organized a wild safari to the Minneriya National park. We saw a huge elephant gathering including babies, along with a variety of other wildlife such as birds, monkeys, and crocodiles. In addition there is a short distance from this place to Dambulla cave temple which is definitely worth to visit. We highly recommend GOLDEN ECO AYUR VILLA for the tourist destination in Dambulla.

I had a wonderful stay at this B&B! The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful from the very beginning, making me feel right at home. The place was spotless, beautifully maintained, and very comfortable. Plus, the location couldn’t be better – just a short walk from the city center, perfect for exploring everything without needing transportation. Highly recommended!

We chose not to climb Sigiriya (having just recovered from Adam's Peak!) but instead chose the much shorter Pidurangala which afforded a fabulous view of Sigiriya. Highly recommended. A visit to the Bawa hotel, Heritance Kandalama, is well worth it as an insight into the brilliant architectural mind of Geoffrey Bawa.

Dambulla is an excellent base for exploring Kandy,...

Dambulla is an excellent base for exploring Kandy, Anuradhapura, Polonnaruwa and Sigiriya. We stayed there for 4 Nights and could cover the heritage sites easily. Dambulla Caves are a must-see and so is Sigiriya (just 16 Kms. away). Anuradhapura and Polonnaruwa are around an hours drive but Dambulla is much well-connected and less touristy.

Dambulla is truly the perfect gateway to explore Sri Lanka's Cultural Triangle! Located at the heart of this historic region, it offers unbeatable access to some of the country’s most iconic sites. From Dambulla, you’re just a short drive from the majestic Sigiriya Rock Fortress, the ancient city of Polonnaruwa, and the sacred ruins of Anuradhapura. The Dambulla Cave Temple itself is a stunning treasure, filled with ancient statues and beautiful murals. With its central location, Dambulla is the ideal base for exploring these cultural wonders, while also providing a peaceful escape surrounded by nature. Whether you're into history, culture, or simply breathtaking landscapes, Dambulla is the best place to start your journey through Sri Lanka’s rich heritage.

I loved everything they have amazing vibe, nothing was to much trouble . All staff kind and helpful. Dambulla is quiet but has local shops, cafes Pizza Hut, great small restaurant a few miles from Evergreen serving very good food. It's run by the people who run Evergreen. So recommended by me.. Anything you want to do or go and see will be arranged for you Tuk Tuk guy is a staff member . If you need car/driver it will be arranged.

Fantastic value for money budget hotel in centre of Dambulla, but down a quiet road. The deluxe room was very spacious with a comfortable bed and hot pump shower (quite rare in Sri Lanka!) Breakfast was incredibly generous - lots of fruit and baked goods. The manager is so helpful. He’ll sort you out with wherever you want to go or whatever you need. Rooms are basic but have everything you need.

My second visit to this comfortable small hotel located closer to Dambulla center. As always staff members reached out to me as usual in advance and got them selves prepared for the late night arrival. I reached there around 0100 hrs and didnt have any places to dine, However manager was kind enough to arrange a sandwich for me even though the kitchen was closed.
