Ferndale Retreat Knuckles

De locatie/uitzicht is fenomenaal , midden in de jungle in de bergen 😍

Het uitzicht was prachtig. De wandelingen naar de watervallen door de jungle was hoogtepunt van vakantie.

Het was een beleving op een wat afgelegen plek. Het eten wordt ergens anders gemaakt en kan daardoor lang duren.

Fina och fräscha rum. Maten var utmärkt! Tillmötesgående när vi ville korta vistelsen!

Saknade resurser för att torka vandringsutrustning. Kallt och mörkt i orangeriet där vi åt alla måltider.

Beautiful place! So serene and in the middle of nature. The food is amazing and the staff is so friendly. You should definetely come here to discover the Knuckles mountain range.

The view, location, service team and great comfort. Really good food.

Little things that can be improved ; more lights for dinner at night. Food was delicious but all cold.

Here’s a polished, warm, and personal review you can use: I had the most peaceful and refreshing time at Ferndale Retreat. The food was beautifully prepared, fresh, and clearly made with care. Every meal felt thoughtful and comforting, exactly what you want when you’re there to unwind. The staff truly made the experience special. They were kind, attentive, and genuinely warm, always ensuring we were comfortable without being intrusive. The location itself is stunning, quiet, green, and incredibly calming. If you’re looking to disconnect, slow down, and enjoy good food in a serene setting, this is the place. I left feeling rested, grounded, and already wanting to return.

Everything was amazing: the food, the amazing service with Jason in charge (best so far in Sri Lanka) and the great guide Charaka who accompanied us to a small trek in the jungle with my 3 years old son. The bungalows are clean, the beds are comfy and there is everything you need - if they don’t have already in the room, you ask and they find a solution! The views are incredible! We spent Christmas there, they went all the way into creating a Christmas tree with lights on the heliport so we could have dinner around it - a special barbecue. The food is also a fair price for the quality you get.

Nothing. The owner mentioned that they have a project to create a spa, this would definitely be a big plus.
