This accommodation is located near the Sigiriya Rock, just the right distance from the entrance, accessible by foot. Our room was really neat and comfortable. We were provided with an electric kettle, some tea and coffee, and also with some staff of sanitary kit (shampoo, soap, body lotion). The breakfast was really delicious, cooked by the host family. Also, we arranged a safari trip to see elephants which was an unforgettable life-experience! Highly recommended to families with children. This place is definitely one of the most loved accommodations in Sri Lanka!

The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. Waiting for any way to fulfill our needs. The manager, Denusha, helped us organize our trip with a safari, taxi from the airport and to Dambulla, fun converstations and even dropped us off at our bus stop. The location was peaceful and we really enjoyed the swimming pool. It was close enough that we could walk to the lion rock and the Piderangela hike also.

We had the most wonderful stay at this warm and welcoming family home in Sri Lanka. From the moment we arrived, we felt like part of the family. The house is spotlessly clean, and the beautiful courtyard, filled with fruit trees, was such a peaceful retreat, a perfect place to relax after a day of exploring. The home-cooked food was absolutely amazing, with every meal showcasing the delicious flavours of Sri Lankan cuisine. Our hosts were incredibly kind and helpful, arranging trips for us and sharing great tips to make our stay even better. The two kids in the family were such a delight, so friendly, cheerful, and kind. If you’re looking for a stay that combines cleanliness, comfort, and authentic Sri Lankan hospitality, this is the perfect place. Chapeau! 🫶

The environment of the hotel is very beautiful. The owner has a large orchard. In a corner of the orchard, there is a beautiful botanical garden, which was designed by the owner himself. We stayed in this botanical garden. You can imagine how beautiful it is! In addition, the hotel owner has a very polite son and a naughty and lovely daughter. We felt very happy playing with them.

The treehouse was small but cozy, from the balcony you have a beautiful view on the pidurangala rock. Beeing directly in the nature gives you a extraordinary feeling, especially in the night with all the sound from the nature around you. The host and his family are very very kind ans always concerned about our well-being. But the best thing about our stay was the food, which was really great. We got a delicious dinner which was one of our best foods in Sri Lanka. Don't miss the chance of this incredibly delicious experience

My wife and I have always prefer to stay in an urban and nature environment. Firstly, I would say that the owners Mr. Mahesh and his spouse Mdm. Chandi has delivered the true Sri Lankan hospitality, they provided personalised services and always suggest the best on what activity we can do around Sigiriya. They even prepared fantastic meals for us based on our taste buds. They have never been pushy and that's the best 👌. Besides that, we have experienced a bombastic self vegetation plantation around the hidden lake cottages, If you are lucky 😃 actually every day is a lucky day, you will hear peacocks, cows, elephants and migration of various bird with their chippig sound and many other living creatures. It's like only ONE Call away and they are there to assist, In fact, Mr Mahesh shuttled us to the main road in order for us to take the bus. Little did we know that travelling by bus was satisfying and this was suggested by the beautiful property owners. Everything was so 👉 on point whereby on our last day, we did feel like we were gonna miss this home. Myself and my wife will definitely introduce this soothing and calm cottage to all our family, friends and those who need suggestions 😊. To the owners Mr&Mrs Mahesh - We wish the best for you and your family. Hope to see more places like this 🙏 obaṭa stutiyi saha obagē karuṇāva api agaya karamu 🫂
