Very clean and spacious room with a great view over the swimming pool and the garden and mountains The food was delicious and an outstanding breakfast. A mix of oriental and western breakfast options. The staff was super friendly and helpful There was some confusion about the beds for the children but that was also quickly resolved The swimming pool is huge and more than welcome after visiting the temples. We could have stayed much longer

From the moment we arrived, we were warmly welcomed and made to feel completely at home. Every member of the staff went out of their way to make our stay special — always kind, attentive, and genuinely caring. Traveling as a family, we especially appreciated how thoughtful and accommodating everyone was. The atmosphere was serene and inviting, and every detail seemed designed to ensure comfort and relaxation. Our room was spotless, beautifully maintained, and incredibly cozy. The common areas were equally lovely — ideal for both moments of peace and time together as a family. Whether it was a kind gesture at breakfast or a friendly chat at reception, we felt seen, valued, and cared for, especially my 15 months old daughter! This was more than just a stay; it was an experience of true hospitality. We left with full hearts and wonderful memories. We can’t wait to come back — thank you for everything!

The apartment was very spacious and clean. Bed was very comfy and we had all we needed in the bedroom. The staff was very friendly and helpfull. They helped us to rent a scooter what was great as we could go anywhere and come back to that quiet place and relax. It was great place for our last nights in Sri Lanka after a month of travelling. We wish the Cashew Palace amazing season! Stay busy!

If you are nature lovers like us, this place is a dream come true 🌿✨ We stayed 5 nights at sky forest and had an amazing experience. The host provided delicious meals (we had dinner and breakfast there everyday) and he helped us plan and organise our day trips and travel. We didnt stay in the treehouse, but we had a huge room with a lovely bathroom in a cosy cabin. We really felt at home ☺️

One of the most tranquil and peaceful stays of our travels so far. Everything about this property was outstanding - the staff and the service , the room which was spacious with comfortable and huge bed , plunge pool and overlooking greenery , spacious and huge bathroom . We had booked the stay which included their Ayurvedic doctor and treatment and it was heavenly. Top notch quality and very peaceful. Note that the Ayurvedic Center closes at 4pm and rightly so. Would advice to choose full board ( breakfast , lunch and dinner) and opt for Ayurvedic food ( if you prefer vegetarian) . The food was clean , light , local and tasty. We also saw a peacock in the morning right beside our room. The team also provided us very good tips on the time we should visit the lion rock ( for sunrise to avoid crowds) and helped us book a safari to the Kaudulla national park which was one of the highlights of our stay. The property is built on over 70 acres and gives you the green , lush, expansive feel. Thank you to the staff - Chandana ( manager) , praveen , Hasitana ( the chef) and the two people who served breakfast. Everyone serves with a smile and a peaceful demeanour . I had also shared that it was my partners birthday ( a few hours before arriving) and they had made such nice birthday arrangements ( balloons , cake , room decor ). We will surely refer this place to our friends and family and be back here for sure .

All was amazing, the hotel is so beautiful, the room was great, bathroom is huge and the garden with the pool is stunning! It's very chic and quiet. The best was that the hotel is very luxurious with a lot of charm but the prices of the restaurant and the spa are reasonable so you can really enjoy your stay! And the staff was really helpful, we really loved our stay there!
