There's constant construction on the site. The noise is unbearable. We were coming straight from Colombo airport, landing at 3 am. After visitng Dambula on the way, went to Pidurangala Rock, and had to get up for Sigiriya at 4.00 am next morning. Considering the killing trip plans, the noise did not affect the kids and they sleept through all of it. But it will deffinately be a great problem for most adults. We understand they want to expand, but may be during this process they should charge less...We odered 4 sandwiches and 4 french fries. The amount of the portions was such that it barely covered the needs of our three kids -age 8,12,15, what was the biggest suprise is that for that (which we were never given anything like a menu or price list) aside from waiting for it almost an hour, we were charged 50$

The area around the pool is beautiful. There's barely anyone around so in a way it feels like a privite pool. The roomas are spacious, nice and clean. The breakfast is great and the guy who serves it saw that we are being considerate with the food, therefore gave us more, this was kind of him.

It’s technically walkable to most places, but at night you’re better off getting a Tuk Tuk as there are many stray dogs and potentially wild elephants.

For anyone looking for a slice of paradise close to Sigiriya rock, this is the place to stay. The highlight of this place is definitely the pool, which feels like an oasis in a desert, and definitely to be made the most of when not visiting Sigiriya or pidurangula rock. Dilan is a really chilled, welcoming host who was easy to contact when needed and happy to arrange a Tuk Tuk, and even allowed me to check out late and use the pool while I waited for my taxi.

The location, breakfast, staff are all very kind and cooperative. They do need to fix the wifi connectivity though

Pro’s: - great location - pool area is beautiful (but not enough beds so uncomfortable if you arrive too late in the afternoon) - pool itself is clean and lovely to swim in - breakfast is very good, dinner is tasty Cons: - barely communication, you have to guess where the breakfast area is and we were surprised they had a restaurant on our second day (no signage, no menu) + if you want info on tours or taxis, the staff is hard to find or communicate with (don’t reply to whatsapp number) - food was tasty but expensive (no menu so no prices) - the arrival was odd, just gestures where to go and again no communication - a 14 year old boy is basically running the hotel (mixing cocktails, taking requests, doing payments, room management) and has clearly been taught to answer any questions or request with ‘in 5 minutes’ to never come back to you (he is clearly overwhelmed with tasks)

The staff was almost invisible which seems not that bad, but it’s annoying when you do need help with something. The music/bass at the pool was horrible. Much nicer to listen to the tropical birds singing and the beautiful garden loses all calm and relaxation due to the music. People come to relax on holiday.

Beautiful pool and garden with birds. Relaxing area.

Lovely room with a private pool. Staff very friendly and accommodating to our later arrival. Good breakfast with lots of selection.

Bathrooms a little smelly but not much they can do about that

Very chill vibe which was nice. Rooms were spacious and nice outdoor space. Perfectly located just a stones throw from Sigiriya’s rock. Have a nice bar area serving fresh juices - for the money we paid I thought it was great value!

The room had the smell of mould or rising damp

Great pool and nice scenic gardens

Staff were lovely but not very present. Had to go looking for someone to ask when we needed something, knocking on doors etc. Pool bar stunning but no one there to serve - we asked if we could buy a drink and were told that the barman was taking a shower and would be back in half an hour... he never came back! Also not offered a drink with dinner which was a bit odd.

Gorgeous setting, lovely pool area, nice room with large bed and fridge to keep water cool. We had dinner and breakfast included both of which were lovely. Staff helpful when you could find them, dinner service very prompt.

Breakfast every day the same. More sunbeds needed.

Private pool.

Stayed in February 2025

Not easy to get drinking water, didn't sell any bottled water so had to ask staff who would then disappear for 5 minutes and return with a filled bottle - obviously this is fine but access to a fountain would be better. Bathroom was a little dangerous - slipped and cut toe open Pool bar poorly stocked.

Pool was great, room was very spacious and the bed comfortable. Air-conditioned room. Beautiful setting and a short walk to lots of restaurants/bars/cafes. Good location for the rocks. Breakfast was plentiful and delicious.

The pool is also rented out for day guests so can get quite busy. They play party/dance music by the pool which wasn't to our taste but that's personal preference. We would have loved a drink on arrival or water in the room.

The hosts kindly arranged airport pick up for us. We enjoyed our stay and relaxing by the pool. If you're happy with a short walk it was easy enough to get to restaurants and Sigiriya rock.

The wifi didn’t work for about half the time we were there and despite looking like they had satellite tv none of that was working either (no major issue on either but looked like it could be fixed easily). The shower in the room had very little pressure and only came around once in three days to do room service (again not a major issue for us). Would be nice to have a restaurant on site but again no major as so many close by! All little things I’m sure they’ll continue to improve over time as it looks like they are making improvements throughout the property. Overall a great place with lovely vibe.

The place has a lovely feel to it. It’s a bit off the main drag but only a 10-15 min walk or a 300 LKR tuk tuk and it means your hidden away in a jungle like setting, that aside from the occasional rooster is very quiet. Rooms are spacious and great air conditioning and the pool is fantastic. There aren’t a lot of rooms so it never got crowded by the pool or noisy. It’s not high-end but that’s also part of the charm. The owners brother also comes around and gives you his WhatsApp number as he runs a tuk tuk service- so super easy to get around. He even took us to Kandy at a very reasonable rate.

Lack of on site snacks like chips/nuts and cold drinks (beers)

Nothing.

Great little spot. Easy to access everywhere you need via tuktuk or a short walk. Room was very nice and the grounds of the hotel are beautiful. Particularly the pool area with cozy little treehouses and hideaways. Breakfast was good.

The menu at the bar could be better

Nice room, friendly people, really tasty breakfast

Staff very hard to find, had to hunt down for any request, including a drink at the bar. Also construction work all day next to our room and the pool and no advertising of this in advance or apologies for the inconvenience.

Lovely pool, modern room, clean room, good breakfast, delicious dinner, good location to Sigarayia rock

Shower could have been warmer, and there was some blaring music around 4-5pm when people started ordering drinks at the pool.

Beautiful gardens and pool, very peaceful, some restaurants within walking distance. Staff were amazing, so willing to help, would recommend booking any taxis/trips with them directly. They also provided amazing home cooked breakfast and even catered a delicious home cooked evening meal for us when we asked!

We were happy as great value family room.

This was a really great little property stayed two nights great location for the rock and views. Close to restaurants and the rooms were clean and fresh. Staff were helpful and attentive. The pool area is small but has great spaces for hanging out and relaxing. Kids loved swimming in the pool. Breakfast was exceptional.

Make sure you lock your doors as the dogs will head butt the door and try to come in the room. Not the owners fault, just something that happens and to be mindful of.

The staff were lovely. It was very much in nature, so was like staying in a rainforest. Brilliant home made breakfast. Went above and beyond to help organise transport and the like. Cute features by the pool which created an oasis type feel.

The accomodation is approx 800 m away from the main road with restaurants and cafes. It was no problem for us because we stayed only 1 night and did not want to go out.

the hosts were super friendly. They organized everything we wanted. the dinner they prepared for us was also very good.

Stayed in January 2025

The wifi was very weak ended up using data because it didnt work for us in the room, nor in the common areas. We did not like the bathroom set up - its one large room with no divider between shower and toilet/sink, so water was going everywhere making it very slippery, you need flip flops (provided) to enter after a shower. The bathroom was not well lit and did not meet the same cleanliness as the room did.

To start the location of the stay was very ideal for hiking Sigiriya Lion Rock. The ambiance and the setting of the stay was very green and well kept. It is very relaxing. Our room was very large and the AC worked well, bed was comfortable. The room itself was clean and looked recently updated. We only stayed for one night but was able to get lunch, and it was the BEST Kottu we had in all of Sri Lanka, good home cooking. The hosts were very nice and we felt taken care of. I would say the price aligns with the level of comfort provided in the rooms.
