Boasting garden views, Tree Trails Sigiriya offers accommodation with an outdoor swimming pool, a garden and a terrace, around 5.3 km from Pidurangala Rock. There is an in-house restaurant, plus free private parking and free WiFi are available. The accommodation features a shared kitchen and full-day security for guests. We stayed 2 nights on this beautiful location with beautiful people. The very nice room was situated in a little house with a nice terrace outside. So clean and looked as a totally new place. The service was brilliant. We got all the help we needed. For example for getting a transfer to the pidurangala ( at 5 0’clock in the morning) and a very good taxi driver who took us to our next location (very long drive/ the taxi driver gave us a roadtrip with visits to special places). Tree trails thank you so much for taking care of us! We loved our stay with you.

Boasting a garden, terrace and views of garden, Jungle Host Hostel And Tree House is set in Sigiriya, 5.1 km from Sigiriya Rock. The property is located 8.2 km from Pidurangala Rock, 3.1 km from Wildlife Range Office - Sigiriya and 4.3 km from Sigiriya Museum. The accommodation offers room service, a 24-hour front desk and organising tours for guests. If you're looking for an authentic Sri lankan experience and wanna be treated more as a friend rather than a guest, choose Jungle Host Hostel. Chooti and Diva - the hosts, took good care of me and showed me some secret places around. We had so much fun spotting elephants at night, watching plenty of sunsets and sunrises. I think I also learned a lot about the Sinhala culture cause it was a bit like a Couchsurfing experience. I met some great travellers in the hostel! It was definitely my best stay in Sri Lanka and I'm grateful for that. The rooms are also very nice and clean.

This property offers access to a terrace and free private parking. The homestay features garden views, an outdoor fireplace and a 24-hour front desk. The nicest hosts during our two weeks in Sri Lanka. This is a nice, clean and well equipped accommodation (AC, hair dryer, drinking water, soap, etc.) in the middle of the jungle. The family is very kind and helpful. They made us a delicious dinner and Sri Lankan breakfast. For the dinner we could choose from a menu and everything was home cooked. They also waited us with a welcome drink (smoothie). They have an outdoor kitchen in their courtyard and spice garden, where cooking classes are held. Highly recommend this place for a few nights!
