Sinharaja Rest in Deniyaya provides accommodations with a garden and a terrace.

Great place if you’re interested visiting the rain forest 🌳 We did two excursions, specially the day walk was very memorable, very unique experience! We recommend doing that to everyone! The cabin was beautiful and clean with a lovely sitting area. So relaxing. Food was outstanding. And the host did his best to help us with the transport, such a kind person ( we came all the way from Ella). And the shower outside was special too:) THANK YOU

Featuring river views, Sinharaja Riverside in Deniyaya features accommodations and a garden. This property offers access to a balcony and free private parking.

Situated near the Sinharaja rain forest & surrounded by abundant nature, Sinharaja Riverside is the perfect place to relax your body & calm your mind. You wake up every morning & go to sleep at night hearing the sounds of insects & birds. Everything is built from nature! The meals I ate were exceptional! Akila, who is the chef puts his heart into everything he cooks. He was even kind to let me help in the kitchen & teach me about the fresh ingredients he uses. You will have a beautiful view while eating, & you’ll even be able to see peacocks & mongoose! The staff are so genuinely nice, friendly, & funny! They take the time to help you & are so knowledgeable about everything! Overall, I highly recommend this place :)

Sinharaja Forest Edge is located right on the edge of the UNESCO site Sinharaja Rain Forest. The property offers complimentary transportation to the rain forest from Mederipitiya Village.

Decent property next to the rainforest entrance. We got non-AC room which was sufficient. One of the only two problems of this place is their policy to (up)sell guests quickly into something, a tour, AC room or whatever. They should give time to relax first and not be salesy pushy. The second problem is overpriced food which is not even tasty. Nevertheless we enjoyed the rainforest experience. Sinharaja was pretty beaten path but we saw lots of animals thanks to our guide Sagres. Aak for him, awesome guide.

Providing river views, Rainforest River Bay in Deniyaya provides accommodations, a garden, and a terrace. This property offers access to a balcony, free private parking, and free Wifi.

Rooms were nice and clean. The view was amazing from the rooms and the breakfast was very good as well. The family was super friendly and sympathic. The father is also a Tourguide and knows a lot. For us it was also amazing to see the start of the school which is next to the place. There is a morning chanting in the school which impressed us a lot also. We also had dinner and lunch. Which was just amazing. Different curries like Okra,. potatoes,...

    Great location for visiting the Sinharaja rainforest. Tour guide is arranged by the hosts. Great guide who can make gorgeous pictures and has a sharp eye for animal spotting. Beautiful swimming pool with fireflies. Definitely go swimming in the dark (in your phone light). Cute dogs. Good food by the mother for a fair price. Use a tuk tuk rather than taxi from Deniyaya, because the road is not suitable for a car. The host was kind enough to offer us a tuk tuk ride to our taxi driver. There are mosquito nets around the bed, use them!

    Staying at the rainforest cabin was one of the highlights of our one month long stay in sri lanka. The place is incredibly beautiful and it was so nice to be surrounded by nature. Ravindra is a great host and made our stay really special. He arranged a guided rainforest tour for us and took us on a little hike close to the cabin. We would not change a thing and can only recommend staying at this hidden gem.

    The owners are very kind and welcoming. They can help you to arrange hiking in the forest with a great and passionate guide. You can ask for breakfasts, lunches and dinners in the guest house. The three dinners I took were exceptional, especially the grilled chicken with the vegetables. The place is clean and quiet, it's easy to sleep, you have a Mosquito net for the bed.

    The location is an excellent place to start the trip to the forest and the hosts super friendly. Food was delicious. Very much appreciated the quietness during my stay. The guide the family organised for my trip to the rainforest had outstanding knowledge about all plants, animals and great humour. Highly recommend the accommodation and the tour guide.

    Best place we have stayed in Sri Lanka in terms of overall experience (great hosts & fairytale location). Food provided was very delicious, with great variety. The Sinharaja forest tour was also a very good experience, our guide (the owner of the Nest) being very knowleadgeble of what is going on in the forest (he spotted a lot of birds/animals and told us a lot about their behavior). All in all we just recommend this place by our hearts. A big thank you for the hosts!

    The host was really nice and helpful. The location is stunning, quiet and really close to the entrance of Sinharaja. Not really anything to critize. Organized Tour was awsome! Really adventurous.
