"Very good"

8.0

Lovely surrounding, in the middle of the jungle. Very friendly and extremely helpful accommodator. Brilliant breakfast. Walking distance to Pidurangala rock but also town centre, however at night tuctuc is needed because of the elephants

The treehouse would need a little renovation. They charged as more than stated a booking, but I did not complain...have to get used to Sri Lankan ways of doing things:-)

"Super forest accommodation"

9.0

Great location with super views of lion rock and pindurangala rock both fab to climb. Bungalows a little rustic but breakfast was fab and we really enjoyed our stay. Beds clean and comfy and owners and staff really attentive. Great value just a 5min drive from super restaurants and bars. Would recommend if you want a forest type experience

Bathroom a little basic but had a warm shower and was clean.

"Stunning views in the midst of nature"

10.0

The location of this property was exceptional - it is literally located in an area with a thick tree cover, and offers views of Sigiriya from the room! It is a 5 min bike ride away from the centre of town which means it offers a respite from the noise and crowds of the town while still being accessible. The caretakers were amazing - they arranged our bikes, helped us figure our itinerary, directed us to a secret lake (which you should ask them for!), made us lovely breakfast everyday and offered us an early check in.

The rustic nature of this property really suited us, but it is not meant for those who are used to staying only at hotels. Because it is in a forest, there will be ants around despite all the precautions taken.
