Family run pension - the hosts are very friendly and helpful. Amazing location! This is a proper hideaway - the bungalows are located away from any road (the hosts would pick you up with their 4x4 from the village but you'll have to follow the narrow pathway also to reach a beautiful river cascade at the doorstep of your tiny house. Perfect place to watch nature (eagles, kingfishers, peacocks, magpies, barking deer). The family provides really good, home cooked meals, fresh juices and desserts. Treks and activities are also available. Highly recommended for anyone craving an adventure and to connect with nature. Thank you for everything!

Everything was excellent from the very beginning of our arrival. We were warmly welcomed with refreshing tea. Dinner and breakfast were outstanding—everything was incredibly delicious. The hosts were very friendly, and we felt right at home. Umesha is an amazing hostess. Thank you so much for the magical tea that helped me recover faster. The best memories of this place. Many thanks to Umesha and Saman!☺️

Vinni and family were exceptional hosts. Beautiful location, clean room and bathroom, aircon a fan and a view! Peace and quiet amid the spectacular Sinharaja Rain Forrest. Vinni has a vast knowledge of the birds and wildlife of the forrest. A wonderful guide. The restaurant is simple and the food traditional, not boring at all. We selected a variety of of dishes - all were prepared freshly with wonderful skill. The sambals that accompanied the dishes were amazing. The fresh juices were some of the best! Vinni can organise transfers to and from Sinharaja, in fact nothing is to much. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

I'm a wildlife Photographer and I've been seeing Hemal as guide for several years now. He recently renovated the place as a guest house and it is fantastic. The place: The room was clean, AC and facilities are brand new and the view is exceptional! It is located a beautiful 10 minute walk from the park entrance, surrounded by green. And is directly next to the path that you would take for a night tour, which is a must in Sinharaja (And nobody is allowed to enter the Park at night). Hemal's wife is cooking and I doubt any of the luxury hotels near by will match the love and effort she put in every single meal. As it is common for Sri Lankan hospitality, they will always ask you if anything is missing or you have any special wishes and will drive to the nearest shop to buy it, without asking. The guide (Which is much more important in Sinharaja!): Hemal is known within the entire community as one who spots the most animals and knows so much about them. While all guides need to absolve basic training to become a guide, you can tell that he is truly passionate about the nature and he will tell you the English, Latin and partly the German names for most of the animals that we saw. You can also tell that he deeply respects the animals and the eco system and puts safety of you and the animals above anything. He grew up right in that village and he's is in the forest every day even on his days off so he always knows all the best spots!

RainForest Vibe Villa, located right next to the stunning Sinharaja Tropical Rainforest, is the perfect nature retreat. With the peaceful Gin River flowing nearby, it offers a calm and relaxing atmosphere. Just a short walk from the villa, you’ll find a bird-watching paradise. Plus, being only 100 meters from the Pitadeniya Entrance makes exploring the rainforest easy. From the moment we arrived, the staff’s warm hospitality made us feel right at home. The villa itself is cozy and designed for comfort, creating a stress-free and relaxing. A guided tour arranged by the villa took us deep into the rainforest, where we learned fascinating stories and insights about this breathtaking ecosystem. It was truly unforgettable. The food was another highlight; fresh, delicious, and full of local flavors. The villa is also exceptionally clean, and with no fixed check-in or check-out times, our stay felt flexible and stress-free. What makes this place truly special is its location. Surrounded by a tea estate, facing the rainforest, and right by the river, every view is stunning. Staying here felt like stepping into a dream.

This place is, by far, the most beautiful overall package on our trip through Sri Lanka! Nestled in the heart of nature, it offers a breathtaking view of the Sinharaja Rainforest and lush rice fields. Every moment here feels like a dream. Our rainforest tour with our incredible host, Thisarn, was a truly special experience—his knowledge and passion made it unforgettable. If you're looking for a serene escape surrounded by pristine beauty, highlyrecommend this gem. A perfect 10/10! 🌿✨

    An absolute gem and one of the very best places we stayed. Amazing location, very clean and comfortable, lovely host family and lots of extra’s including a stocked mini bar. If you are visiting Sinharaja then this is the perfect accommodation. Our hosts arranged our hike, (which was quite challenging) with a guide and a picnic. Our driver found accommodation very nearby.

    Had a lovely relaxing stay at Sinharaja Forest Edge. The location was perfect, right by the rainforest and it was easy to arrange a guided walk from the accommodation. The pool was right outside our room which was really nice. Really felt like we were staying in the midst of nature. The staff were also very friendly. Would recommend!

    We had a lovely stay at the Natural Mystic Sanctuary! First of all: the view on the rainforest is magical <3. The climb up the hill is a bit of a climb, but worth the view for sure. In addition, the accomodation is awesome: you can see that the rooms are build with great care and eye for detail. But the best part? Our hosts, who took care of us so well with homemade food and arranging our every need. Definitely recommend!
