We arrived late, but staff was there waiting to receive us. Nalake and Manju ( sorry if I got the names wrong) very prompt with helping us. Always greeted us with a smile. We forgot to bring something, they were quick to help us get it from a shop for us. Breakfast was delicious, with good variety. Rooms very clean and looks new. Surrounding with lots of plants, looks green and refreshing. Kids enjoyed the pool. Location nearby to sigiriya rock and pidurangala. Couple of nearby restaurants with good local food. Good start of the holidays for us as a family!

The view from the hotel is fantastic. Good location - it is close to the Lion Rock. There is a big gift shop and a nice cafe with hammock in 5 minute walk. Very peaceful and beautiful place. The guy from hotel kindly helped me to organise transport to Trincomalee. People who work there are very welcoming. The room was clean and spacious with good furniture, stylish. Good bathroom with hot water. The bed had a mosquito net. There was coffee, tea and kettle inside the room. They provide breakfast with the view over Lion Rock which is very beautiful.

The big clean room and the great breakfast, the lovely swimming pool and the amazing view of the lion Rock. And the soursop juice is a must try. Sweet andq sour with aq hit of salty that is great for the wheather. Highly recommend! It is a very new hotel. All the facilities works well. Hot Water! Air conditioning and the pool. The pool is a real angel after a hiking or lion rock or a half day safari. It makes our stay very relexing. You can ask the hotel help on Safari booking which may be a slightly expensive than the street, however they got us a very expensive guide who has been working as a guide 10 yrs. We got to see a lot of elephants, peecocks, birds in just 3 hours. They almost always the first jeep to spot/trecking the elephants that makes us a great spots to get our photos.

From the moment we arrived, we were warmly welcomed and made to feel completely at home. Every member of the staff went out of their way to make our stay special — always kind, attentive, and genuinely caring. Traveling as a family, we especially appreciated how thoughtful and accommodating everyone was. The atmosphere was serene and inviting, and every detail seemed designed to ensure comfort and relaxation. Our room was spotless, beautifully maintained, and incredibly cozy. The common areas were equally lovely — ideal for both moments of peace and time together as a family. Whether it was a kind gesture at breakfast or a friendly chat at reception, we felt seen, valued, and cared for, especially my 15 months old daughter! This was more than just a stay; it was an experience of true hospitality. We left with full hearts and wonderful memories. We can’t wait to come back — thank you for everything!

The room was very nice and cozy, with a cute balcony and a very nice view into the family garden. The hosts were super friendly and helpful. The free cooking class was also amazing. We learned so much about the traditional foods and culture in Sri Lanka. Wish we could’ve stayed here longer!

A very kind and helpful family. When an elephant entered their garden at night, the host took a great care of our safety, but let us have a glimpse of it. The family was chatty with a good energy, ready to answer any questions about the stay.
