Fabulous view and fabulous hosts. Smiley, attentive, even a coconut on departure. Stay here!

The host is absolutely wonderful! super helpful and his family cooked a delicious rice and curry! the Rainforest tour tour was absolutely wonderful! he knew exactly where to look and to go to catch the closest view on the animals 😍 i highly recommend this place who loves a breathtaking view, a lovingly welcome and the best eye catchers of the rainforest! we actually come back in a couple of weeks for the other trail

I was pleasantly surprised by the luxury of this location. The house itself has the nicest bathroom I saw so far in Sri Lanka (almost new?) And the balcony view over the meadow is unique, from what I saw in the surroundings. The bed was also very comfortable and the host speaks english very well. Can definately recommend, the price was very good as well. I heard the sounds of the rainforest when i woke up (small animals on and around the house) but felt very safe inside. It definately was the experience.

This place is absolutely stunning! The view is the most beautiful in all the village - the cabin is on the hill so you can see everything from above. Peakoks in the nearby rice fields are wonderful, you can easily spot 8 of them on one field. In the night you can see millions of stars over the village. Room was spacious, comfortable and we had a hot water all the time. Amile, our host, was paying attention to all our needs and arranged a private transport for us so we could move without any problem to our next destination. He is also a wonderful licensed guide in Sinharaja forest, so we didn't need to worry about arranging our tour to this amazing place. He spot sooo many animals for us, and adjusted the route to our preferences. He also took us to the nearby tea factory and to the huge waterfall available with tuk tuk. The food was delicious and we loved everything in there. I absolutely recommend it, this place is a paradise and you definitely need to go there! :)

What an absolutely amazing experience! The family hosts were the sweetest and most welcoming people – grandparents, parents, kids, everyone! They made us feel completely at home, preparing both dinner and breakfast with so much care and attention to detail. The location is just a stone’s throw from Sinharaja Rainforest, and the accommodation was thoughtfully arranged, with a stunning terrace view and the best Wi-Fi we’d had in Sri Lanka. The hot showers, which had been a rare find elsewhere, were an added bonus. One of the standout moments was when, at the last minute, my partner asked Amile for help with a birthday surprise. Her original plan had fallen through, so Amile went above and beyond to remedy that. Despite the pouring rain, he rode his scooter at 10pm to get a birthday cake and special candles, expecting nothing in return. To top it off, they even gave us an additional gift – such thoughtful hospitality! Amile also guided us on a short hike in the Sinharaja Forest, which was a fun, insightful experience that we thoroughly enjoyed. If not for our plans later, we would have happily stayed and explored even more. This place is a gem and really great value for money – highly recommended!

Amazing hospitality, views and rainforest tour.

The villa was clean and well maintained. Very comfortable and you have a great view from the outdoor sitting area. The host Amila was very accommodating. And his family was very hospitable. A very homely welcome. As a couple interested in photography it was a very convenient place to stay to visit Sinharaja. As a forest guide as well, Amila helped us a lot in locating endemic birds and also some very interesting snakes. It's about 1.5-2km from the Pitadeniya entrance and Amila will take you by Tuk to the entrance, but it's also a walk if you wish to do so. The food was also very good and the stay as a whole was very pleasant and enjoyable. Prices were very reasonable.
