My family and I stayed for 2 nights on arrival in Sri Lanka after a night flight. It was the perfect place to relax. The house is very peaceful and beautiful. The staff is very attentive, friendly and caring. The food was amazing. Feels more like a guest house than a hotel. Highly recommend it.

We cannot even describe how exceptional Ambarella Lodge is and all the incredible staff. We have travelled the world and stayed in a variety of places but this is by far the best, most impressive, most luxurious place we have ever stayed with such attention to detail, happy and attentive staff and food that should be Michelin Star! Arjuna the Manager was so helpful with our holiday plans and the owner, Mr Luvis Siriwardhana went above and beyond to ensure our whole holiday travelling around Sri Lanka was fabulous. We were helped with planning our ongoing journey and hiring a taxi driver and all the logisitcs. Arjuna stayed in contact as we travelled around the country and said we could contact him at any time if we needed anything which was just amazing. Never experienced such customer service like this. We loved it so much here that our 1 night became 2 and then we came back at the end of the holiday for another 2 nights. Kasun was so attentive and would prepare our sunbeds in the morning before we even asked! He was always happy and we would have such lovely chats with him. Anjali is just the sweetest and when my husband burnt himself in the sun she went and got aloe Vera to help which sums up the staff, always going above and beyond! Lakshika took us around the spice garden and on a village tour in a tuk tuk and was so friendly and lovely. The Chef would come and see us at dinner and we were always asked what food we would like and were treated like royalty. The food was incredible. The best food I have ever tasted. Breakfast was enormous and so delicious. Staying in this hotel was the beat decision and absolutely made our holiday to Sri Lanka. Thank you to everybody. Oh and I mustn't forget the incredible massages either! And our room! Large, clean and so comfortable. Everything is just perfect. We will most definitely be coming back to Sri Lanka and the first place we will be staying is here xx
