Rainforest Nest was hands down the highlight of our entire trip! The accommodation is spotlessly clean and has the most stunning view over the surrounding rice fields. On top of that, it’s just a few minutes away from the entrance to the Sinharaja Forest Reserve, which made it the perfect base for exploring the area. What really made our stay special, though, were the hosts, Saman and Umesha. They are such warm and welcoming people that we instantly felt at home. Umesha spoiled us every day with the most delicious breakfasts and dinners, all cooked with so much love. Her food was absolutely incredible, and we couldn’t wait to see what she’d prepare next! We also went on a rainforest tour with Saman, and it was unforgettable. He knows so much about the plants and animals in the forest and has an incredible eye for spotting even the tiniest creatures. He went above and beyond to make sure we didn’t miss anything—he even spent the entire next day searching for a snake we didn’t manage to see on the tour and showed it to us the morning we left. That kind of dedication and passion is so rare, and it made the whole experience even more special. We couldn’t have been happier with our stay. If you’re visiting Sinharaja, you absolutely have to stay here and take a tour with Saman. We can’t wait to come back someday!

I stayed at Sinharaja Pitadeniya Hut in Lankagama during our research work in Sinharaja, and it was an excellent experience! The location is ideal—conveniently close to the main road and within easy access to both the Lankagama and Pitadeniya entrances of Sinharaja Forest Reserve. This made it very practical for our research activities. The food was another highlight. Breakfast was included in the price and featured authentic local dishes, which were both delicious and satisfying. The host was incredibly friendly and supportive, always ensuring we were comfortable and had everything we needed for our stay. The accommodation itself was spacious, clean, and well-maintained, providing a comfortable environment to relax after a day of work. Overall, it’s a great place for anyone visiting the area, whether for research or leisure. Highly recommended!

I had a great stay at the Glitz Marriott. Ananda and his family are great hosts, really nice, attentive and excellent cooks. I originally planned to stay one night but extended my stay. The room was large, clean and quiet. Breakfast, lunch, dinner and tea can be taken on the covered terrace with a beautiful view of the surrounding rice fields. Ananda is also a very good guide, we did an expedition in the Sinharaja forest and saw a lot of animals. Ananda also organised a visit to a tea factory and took me to see the beautiful surrounding countryside.

Lovely place to stay, right on the edge or Sinharaja forest. This place is brand new so it doesn't have a lot of reviews yet, but don't let that turn you off as I'm sure it's going to have tons of great reviews soon! The house itself is brand nee and I think it's even nicer in person than in the pictures. You have absolutely gorgeous views of the rice fields from your patio- in the 3 days I was there I saw it in sun, fog, clouds and rain and all were beautiful! You might even spot wild peacocks or eagles. The food was great as well- breakfast is included and you can order other meals as needed. I did the forest tour with the owner. I had read many reviews from other people who were unhappy with the guides they got from the park entrance so I was happy to go with Prabath, who was recommended by a friend. He was very knowledgeable about the forest and really went out of his way to make sure I was happy. I opted for the longer (6 hour) tour and I was glad I did - gave me plenty of time to photograph all the animals we found, as well as swim and have lunch at a beautiful waterfall. You can even jump from the top of the falls if you're feeling adventurous! Don't expect to see large animals in the forest, but we spotted lots of lizards, bugs, snakes and even a mama bird feeding her babies and I was able to get some great photos. Thanks for everything!

    Close to Singharaja Rain forest. You have also some good tourist spots which everyone can enjoy. Choice of restaurants is less. All are basic with nothing flashy. If you are depending on public transportation it is well connected to Galle and Matara from where we can get Highway buses to Colombo. Not developed as a tourist place

    The host family was very welcoming and hospitable, generally lovely people. We had the opportunity to enjoy exceptionally delicious sri lankan home cooked meals. The house is about one kilometre from the Sinharaja forest entrance and the hosts helped us find a very good official Sinharaja guide with whom we had a lovely hike/safari in the rainforest. They also helped us get a ride to Neluwa, which is a much better way to get to the house than from Deniyaya. We would recommend this to anybody who is interested in visiting the rainforest.
