Featuring garden views, Sun and Green Eco Lodge - Dambulla in Dambulla features accommodation, an outdoor swimming pool, a garden, a shared lounge, a terrace and a restaurant.

Nice stay at Sun&Green with Gayani. The place needs a little improvements and refreshments but we had a nice time with the swimming pool, settled into a lovely evergreen and flowery garden. Big shady terrace to enjoy. We didn't know at the time but Gayani offers tasty sri lankan food if you ask her. Good location if you want to visit Dambulla, Sigiriya and around. (main road but outside center town)

Fantastic staff. Nothing was too much trouble. They kicked up the spice levels back to normal for us, which was a rare find in Sri Lanka, as most places take out almost all the spice when they see a European tourist ordering. We would stay again

Situated in Sigiriya, Ela Addara Green Villa features accommodation with free WiFi, air conditioning and access to a garden with a terrace.

We had a very nice stay at Ela Addara Green Villa. It was such a cute and out in nature vibe; there are plenty of wild animals just outside the door (monkeys, peacocks, squirrels…), it’s a beautiful cabin and the owner seems to have lots of lovely plans for the housing and the garden. Also, and the owner is very kind, and he made sure to prepare us local breakfast on our first morning. Thank you so much.

We had a lovely stay at isanka lion lodge. The owner is really kind and helped us to arrange everything we needed. We also had an amazing home cooked meal and breakfast was delicious. Pool is great to cool down and relax. We stayed here with our 10 month old baby and the whole family loved to hang out with him and were helping us during diner time.

Boasting a swimming pool, a garden, a restaurant and views of the mountain, Rock Shade Chalet- Sigiriya is set in Sigiriya and offers accommodation with free WiFi.

The place is in the middle of nature, which is what I wanted. You can hear all the beautiful sounds as you nod off to sleep and wake as the peacocks call you. The bed and pillows were very comfortable and clean. The air con is an up to date modern system. The outdoor shower is beautiful and hot/cold. You can walk to the centre of Sigiriya or Habarano if you're up for it, a combination of some Jungle, local area, and main road in about an hour to 1 hour 15min. Or you can get a tuktuk of course (at the time of writing this it is about 1000 lkr one way with a local driver off the street.)

    The family were so lovely. The lady did our washing and Sosa was rally helpful giving us lifts, they both were very kind and helped us planned our days. The breakfast was different most days, they made us a packed lunch and gave us loads of fruit to try when we booked a safari, can’t reccomend enough! The room was spacious, really nice shower.

    Our time at the Kandalama Lodge was beautiful. We felt special from the beginning. Everything was clean and tidy, the interior and decoration was on point. The bathroom outside was a bliss. We stayed at the villa with a private pool which was luxury as well. We felt so at home! Madushan made sure that we had a nice trip to Dabula and organized a driver for us. He made sure that everything was perfect. The food - try the Sri Lankan curry it is soo good- and the cocktails were amazing! We highly recommend to stay there!

    The Owner (Nuwan) who was always there was charming and very attentive. The room was very comfortable, and the bathroom is large and spacious. We booked a safari with them, and it was great; we saw about 80 wild elephants in one day, which was amazing. They also arranged a Car for us to go see the sunrise at Pidurangala.

    Perfect place to relax at the end of the day… or to spend the entire day! Only a handful of lodges and beautifully styled. Very clean inside the lodges and around the pool/garden. Loved the open air bathroom.

    A small number of beautiful lodges in beautiful green surroundings. Everything fits together perfectly and is of good quality. Very friendly and helpful owner and staff. The food is more expensive than outside but it is simply fantastic. We had one of the best vegetarian curry selection cooked after our preferences. The breakfast is also really good.

    Exceptional lodge on great location with super friendly hosts who will arrange everything you need. Delicious Srilankan breakfast and diner. Bed is perfect with mosquito net. Bathroom is clean and spacious. This guest house is highly recommended for nature lovers. Meet the sunrise on the hill just up behind your wooden house.
