Ohiya Jungle resort

Very lovely hosts and good food.

Rooms could be little cleaner.

This was a standout stay in our honeymoon in Sri Lanka. The location in Ohiya is beautiful and handy for walks (we did a part of the Pekoe trial which was amazing!). But mainly due to the excellent hospitality of the hosts. When we arrived we were wet and cold and they immediately brought us tea, we had hot showers and they organised dinner for us. The food was delicious and we had a really nice evening in the jungle cafe/restaurant/bar near the lodge with a few strong beers 😅 and a cute dog! The hosts packed a breakfast for us as we were leaving early for our walk, and even got up to prepare us tea before we went. We felt so at home, wish we stayed longer!

Nothing was lacking, it was all great!

Perfect if you want a rural authentic Sri Lankan homestay. Hosts are welcoming and friendly although english is limited but its not a problem. Rooms are basic but clean and comfortable and hot showers-which is a luxury in these parts. Food was plentiful and very traditional. Location very close to the national park and just beautiful all round that area. Definitely recommend if you want a more authentic experience off the beaten path

It’s close to the train station and Horton planes

It’s cold and damp and the guy left there to run the place has very limited English

Even though the communication with the host was a bit difficult, he really tried it's best to make it as comfortable for us as possible. Keep in mind that the place is quite far away from everything, so don't expect any miracles or fancy hotel-suff for this budget. We really enjoyed the place and would have stayed longer if we had the time (and a different internet-provider).

The only down-side was the fact that our internet-provider didn't have any reception in this area and the guesthouse couldn't provide wifi. Dialog network works for sure. SLTmobile for sure does NOT work. Not sure about other providers.

Surrounded by forest, close to Horton Plains, Dahl was very good, crockery/cutlery spotless

Overpriced, misleading photos, unclean, hole in ceiling, troubling locking/closing doors, should have been a third of the price based on 3 weeks travelling Sri Lanka

Meals are very taste 😋 👌friendly staff.. good service

Hot water pressure is very slow for washing.. not enough for body washed..

Comfortable room. Hot water. Friendly hosts. Can order dinner and breakfast.

The staff were excellent, super friendly and helpful with information and transport. It is conveniently located near Ohiya station and local bus stop. Owner's brother was there to collect us off the train and take us to guesthouse. Not far to Horton Plains or the wonderful Devil's Staircase walk. Home cooked meals were delicious. Very small village ( only 120 people ) if you want to get a feel for local village life in Sri Lanka.
