Perfect location. It is really a Hideaway. The water stream is amazing. We had a good swim there. Very peaceful stay. You only hear the continuous and constant sound from the water stream. Food served was great. Staff is very helpful and flexible... It is a family run properly.

"Secluded luxury stay - river and staff are amazing!"

9.0

Amazing service from the owner - responds to any request on WhatsApp almost immediately. The rover was a lifesaver during the heat and wonderful to go explore. Beds were comfortable and clean. Balcony on our room was great. The night trek tour we did was well organized with a great guide. I also really recommend the Ayurvedic herbal massage - was just the icing on the cake!!

I’d warn those with a bad back that the jeep ride up to the property is long and very bumpy. Unfortunately my husband couldn’t manage our second scheduled tour bc the trek in and out of the hotel was a bit much. This isn’t anything against the property - but just advising others. For most people this will be fine. The other improvement would be bug nets. We wanted to leave the room doors open to let in a bit of cool air but then got a lot of bug bites.

"Unique remoteness, comfortable and friendly. Wonderful"

10.0

Incredible remote location right next to a waterfall seemingly miles from anywhere!!! The hosts pick you up in a very battered landrover to tackle the bumpiest mud track for the last 1km which is exhilarating to say the least! It is amazing that in such a location they have managed to build such wonderful lodges, equipped with huge and comfortable beds, and serve delicious food. We did a 4 hour walk in the Sinharaja forest which was hot and humid but beautiful to walk through dense rainforest with sightings of lizards, spiders, millipedes, snakes and scorpion. Not as much wildlife as I expected but then they are wild!

Nothing. Be aware the WiFi can be very patchy understandably as in such remoteness but the owner let me use his hotspot which was perfect

"Amazing place for a holiday"

10.0

Rainforest Hideaway is an amazing place to spend some free time if you visit Sinharaja Forest. Rainforest Hideway is a family-owned business. This family shows exactly what the Sri Lankan hospitality is all about. Household cooked tasty meals is your choice. Rooms are clean and comfy beds, and sometimes even 5 star hotels do not have. Location of this Hideaway is exceptional. It is on the banks of Ging Ganga (River). Tranquil place to relax and dream. The family is friendly, polite, and very helpful. They organized my trip to Sinharaja Forest, also getting me a very knowledgeable guide to accompany me. Guides name is Sagara Jayasinghe, wow! this guy cared deeply about the nature. I would recommend Rainforest Hideaway to anybody who is looking for a relaxing holiday. This is a hidden gem in Sri Lanka. Thank you to all at Rainforest Hideway for making my holiday a great holiday.😊
