Dendrobium House

Nous avons été incroyablement charmés par les lieux. Un endroit isolé, avec une vue fantastique, une décoration soignée et réfléchie pour chaque pièce, et un confort chaleureux dans ces montagnes sri-lankaises à la météo parfois capricieuse. Des activités sont proposées, notamment une observation d’oiseaux avec un naturaliste, que nous avons adorée! Enfin, la piscine est simplement splendide (un spa arrivera prochainement). Le personnel se démenait pour nous faire plaisir et le manager a été parfaitement adéquat. On s’y sent privilégiés! Merci, nous espérons revenir.

Un peu isolé, et difficile d’accès, mais c’est un hôtel destination qui en vaut le détour. L’offre gastronomique et alcoolisée pourrait être étoffée.

Dendrobium House was the absolute highlight of my five-week stay in Sri Lanka — and sadly, two nights there felt far too short. My heartfelt thanks go to Manager Sharm, Dharmasri, Dilshard, Chef Ravinda, Sandeepa, and the entire team. Their exceptional attention to detail made my stay truly unforgettable. Every need was anticipated, and they created such a calm, relaxing atmosphere throughout. The pool setting is simply perfect — an idyllic place to unwind while taking in the magnificent views. Chef Ravinda’s food was outstanding: authentic, fresh, full of flavour, and beautifully presented. I genuinely felt completely and wonderfully spoiled.

Absolutely nothing

Un séjour exceptionnel avec une équipe extrêmement professionnelle et managée à merveille par M. Sharm. Un service digne des plus grands palaces dans un endroit insolite et hors du temps.

Stunning location immersed in nature, warm and attentive staff, incredible local food, beautifully and thoughtfully designed. loved the organic farm tour and guided hike!

First of all I would like to thank Mr. Sham, his attitude and help in every situation is beyond the needs. We spent 5 magnifique days at the property and traveling around, it was the most beautiful place we have visited in Sri Lanka. Pictures don’t show the real atmosphere and beauty of this home. So one advice - don’t go there for only 1 or two days! What I like the most comparing to other boutique hotels is that they know when you need something and when you don’t so you don’t feel trapped. The “red” room is worth the extra. And the food - just wow! Thank you

Et fantastisk hus beliggende midt i naturen omgivet af bjerge, dyr og en kaffeplantage. Der var helt stille og masser mulighed for bare at ånde ud og nyde. Maden der blev serveret var udsøgt med en kok der hver morgen kom ud og diskuterede dagens menu. Derudover var selve huset ufatteligt flot indrettet og personalet var imødekommende og smilende og ingen problemer var for små/store til at kunne blive løst. Man følte sig meget velkommen.

….vi skulle have haft mere tid der 🥴 Derudover så ville et fitnesslokale være en god forbedring men det kan vi forstå allerede er i gang med at blive lavet.

Sehr schönes Anwesen mit dazugehörender Farm (Kaffee, Vanille) welche auch mit einer spannenden Führung besucht werden kann.

Warmwasser in der Dusche hat nicht lange gehalten (mehrfach gemeldet ohne Verbesserung).

Мы были очарованы уединенной атмосферой сдержанной роскоши - идеальное место для релакса в горах. Обслуживание ненавязчивое и по-настоящему заботливое. Особая благодарность шеф-повару за фантастические завтраки и ужины — каждый прием пищи вызывал эстетическое удовольствие. Трансфер из центра Канди, с отличным водителем на крузере, занимает порядка 40 минут. Зато оказываешься в уединенной тишине поместья в сосновом лесу. Если менеджмент сможет добавить такую мелочь, как фрукты в номер и тапочки, будет честная десятка с плюсом. Если еще вернемся на остров, то обязательно остановимся здесь снова.

Beautiful property with wonderful staff and best food we had on the island. Loved the excursions and hikes on offer. Special mention to the organic farm they have, we enjoyed a tour and all our meals sourced ingredients from right on site. Location was close enough to Kandy for sightseeing but much nicer to be away from the city and surrounding by nature and the mountain view. Especially from the spa pool!! Highly recommend

We had the privilege of staying at Kandy Dendrobium House, a true paradise nestled in the mountains just 30 minutes from Kandy. From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed with a kindness and attention to detail that is rare to find when traveling. This is not just a place to stay — it’s a genuine experience, deeply connected to nature and to the heartfelt hospitality of Sri Lanka. The location is simply enchanting: a peaceful haven surrounded by lush greenery, breathtaking views, and a profound sense of serenity. Every detail, from the common areas to the rooms, is designed with care and respect for the environment, creating perfect harmony with the surrounding landscape. A special thank you goes to the wonderful people who made our stay so memorable: • Dilshad Farook, the naturalist, who passionately guided us through the area’s rich biodiversity, turning every walk into a small adventure. • Malindu, the manager, always present, professional, and attentive to every need. • Dharma Sri, Sandeepa, Asanga, Marlon, always present, attentive, ready to assist us with warmth and discretion. • Ravindra, the chef, who delighted us daily with delicious, authentic dishes prepared with great skill. • Mahanama, our driver, kind, reliable, and always with a smile, making every journey safe and pleasant. Thanks to all of you, Kandy Dendrobium House was not just a travel destination — it became a home away from home, a place we will always carry in our hearts. Highly recommended to anyone seeking an authentic, rejuvenating, and unforgettable experience in the stunning heart of Sri Lanka. Milva and Mauro from Italy
