Guest Reviews

Dita (10/5): -
Jakob (7/5): Great stay, but... - The staff is very friendly although bad at english. They jump through hoops to grant you every wish or need you may have. Like driving to the shop for super glue. Really exceptional service. The hotel is also very clean, and has a beautiful garden. The breakfast was also amazing. All in all we had a great stay. Some facilities listed like bathtub wasn't there. Also soundproof walls seems like a lie as there were litteral holes and cracks in the corners of the walls. Lights in the pool was not attached to the walls of the pool. They were just floating around. Comparing prices to other things in hikkaduwa, i do think the value for money is off with this hotel. Rating it as a 5 star hotel is clearly wrong. On google it is listed as a three star hotel.
Julia (5/5): -
Bas (10/5): Geweldig - De staf en de kok die geweldig kan koken.ze deden er alles aan om je thuis tevoelen. Ik had de hotel sleutel per ongeluk mee genomen.en werd gebeld waar ik was. De manger zei blijf daar wachten en ik kom er aan. Wat een service. Oja de omgeving met vogels en apen en varanen geweldig
Sumudu (10/5): A peaceful, beautiful place with great service and a relaxing atmosphere highly recommended. - The location was very calm and quiet, surrounded by beautiful greenery, which made the stay very relaxing. The pool was great, the room was comfortable, and the staff were very friendly and helpful. Honestly, there wasn’t anything major to dislike. Everything was well managed and met our expectations. The stay was comfortable and enjoyable overall.
Jeroen (9/5): Lovely - The hotel is beautifully located in quiet green surroundings. Away from the busy and touristy centre of Hikkaduwa this place felt like an oasis. The staff is super friendly and made us lots of delicious meals. Our little 2 year old daughter loved the pool and just walking around in the neighborhood. The hotel arranges a free tuktuk per day roundtrip to take you to the city. I would highly recommend this place if you want a genuine Sri Lankan experience The beds were a bit hard, but that is a personal preference
Andrei (9/5): - Персонал / он реально старается - идеальный. Бассейн как то странно пахнет и отель в удалении, даже тук туки еле находят
Rasmussen (10/5): - We arrived at this little pearl, tucked away from the busy Hikkaduwa, not knowing what to expect — and what a wonderful surprise it was. A true hidden gem, warmly run by Harsha, Dilanthi, and Praveen. It’s not a luxury retreat, but a beautiful “less is more” experience surrounded by genuine nature. We will definitely be coming back.
Sinéad (7/5): - The room was so big and bed was comfortable. It’s very quiet and peaceful if that’s what you’re looking for. You need a tuk tuk to leave and come back each time and sometimes the driver can’t find the place. There aren’t many facilities such as restaurants, proper bar etc but the small pool is nice
Gaynor (7/5): - Beautiful rooms and the staff were lovely and friendly. The breakfast was great too. The location was too remote for us and transport into town/beach found it difficult to find. No bar or restaurant on site although advertised.
Mina (10/5): -
Tara (10/5): - We had a wonderful time at Garcinia Leaf, like always! The team, the food, the nice pool and the clean room are the things that make us come again and again.
Дмитрий (10/5): - Сняли этот отель на пару дней, но решили остаться тут до конца отпуска. Стильные номера, очень красивая территория. Прекрасный персонал. Не могу найти здесь минусов, хоть я и очень привередлива к отелям. Может кому то не понравится, что далеко от пляжа, но мне нравится это уединение и природа. Через PickMe вызываем тук тук , через 5 минут он тут, до пляжа минут 7 ехать. Но советуем прогуляться по местным улочкам пешком, по пути встретите местные ларьки, где цены не как для туристов)
Ger (9/5): Een heerlijk en aangenaam verblijf in de natuur - We waren er twee nachten en we hebben een Engels ontbijt en ook een Sri Lankaans ontbijt gekozen. Vooral de laatste kan ik aan raden. Heel anders dan een boterhammetje, maar zeer smakelijk. Het zwembad was goed en schoon. De gastheer nam ook de tijd om nog eens langs de diverse planten en bomen te lopen en uitleg te geven. De rust als je dat kunt waarderen. De ligging is in een uiterst natuurlijke en bosrijke omgeving. De tuktuk drivers hadden nog wel eens moeite om de juiste weg te vinden, zelfs de mannen van PICKME met hun route beschrijving moesten nog wel een stukje terug. De kosten zijn 400 tot 500 roepie per keer, bijvoorbeeld vanaf het station van Hikkaduwa. Maar aan de ligging kan Garcinia Leaf niet zoveel doen.
Thilakarathne (10/5): Exceptional -
Alex (8/5): Very good -
Karl (10/5): A paridise in the jungle near Hikkaduwa - The staff, they were incredible and couldn’t have done much more for our stay. The hotel was lovely and the rooms were fantastic as was the pool. The hotel is a bit far from Hikkaduwa, make sure you don’t pay more than 700LKR for a tuk tuk there and back. Maybe a slightly more of a range for breakfast, but we had was still delicious.
Sanjay (10/5): An outstanding hotel- high quality , friendly and a tranquil oasis, would love to stay again , - Garcinia Leaf was a gem. It is a beautiful hotel, set away from the busy main streets , instead it was an oasis nestled amongst beautiful trees and greenery, yet a short trip to the beach. The rooms were large and clean and the staff were friendly ,really helpful and responsive. The food at breakfast was utterly delicious and beautifully presented. The pool was gorgeous with a jacuzzi in one corner. All in all, a great stay Nothing
Usama (10/5): From the moment we arrived at Garcinia Leaf, we knew we had found a slice of paradise. The breathtaking green surround - It’s a paradise, quite, clean and so green.
Janis (9/5): Superb - Staff was very good. All what we need all we get from them. Thanks I dont know where they get stars!!! There is no normal windows at rooms. Stay like in prison.
Daniëlle (9/5): Lovely stay, wonderful team! - We received a very warm welcome along with some fresh juice when we arrived. Our room was very comfortable, clean and well maintained, along with the fact that it got maintenance every day during our stay (while we were out and about). Our hosts were always reachable and ready to help us with anything we asked. They even helped us rent a scooter at a very reasonable price. They go out of their way to make your stay comfortable and relaxed! The location is wonderful and dreamy with nature all around and you come across little delights like the way they present the towels etc. We were very happy with our stay and would love to come back one day! The wooden chairs near the pool were not in an optimal condition anymore
Marija (10/5): Exceptional - Beatifull area outside of the town. Nice and quiet place with pool, very good people and delicious breakfast
Vaishnav01 (10/5): Best lush green stay - The stay is just perfect , polite host, spacious room, nice pool area , welcome drinks, nice balcony, lots of cinnamon trees, just into the wild kind of ...love the Greenery. Those who love being close to nature - this is it ! The location is Little bit inside from the main junction road. Far for those who want to stay closer to the beach , but if you get a scooter 🛵 it works best . Otherwise we loved this offbeat lush green location .
Neza (10/5): Amazing staff and a gorgeous place if you want to be a bit further away from the loud and busy center. -
Amal (10/5): Exceptional -
Ieva (7/5): Good - I really liked good design of the place, you can tell that owner has a good taste and understanding about the design and art. We liked the location out of the major tourist places. Good food and nice atmosphere. Except one thing - they had USSR flag hanging there amongst other flags, we told to guys who work there to remove it, we sencirely hope they will, because that is the same as hanging Nazi symbols and flags out - forbidden and not sure why they would do so... They had USSR flag hanging there amongst other flags, we told to guys who work there to remove it, we sencirely hope they will, because that is the same as hanging Nazi symbols and flags out - forbidden and not sure why they would do so... If you go there and see it still, please, tell them. To remove it. That is the reason, we couldn't give 10.
Katharina (10/5): just wonderful - everything, especially the location
Lindsey (10/5): 3 night stay..wish it had been longer - We liked everything about this hotel. Very spacious room,comfortable beds hot shower. Lovely terrace. Fantastic pool set in tranquil surrounds. Exotic birds in the grounds. We ate at the hotel which offered a well priced menu and the food was very good. We were initially concerned about how far from the beach it was but its only a 599/700 SLR tuk tuk ride and these are easy to find or thevhotel can arrange. The area around the hotel is quiet and very nice to walk around. If we return we would without doubt stay here again. No mosqueto net.
Tinka (10/5): Exceptional -
Sachini (9/5): Superb -
Maija (10/5): Wonderfull experience - We lika all. Wonderfull hotel. Quiet place birds sing. Very nice design. Great pull. Very kind people. We felt like we were visiting friends. Everything was good. We like all.
Thi (10/5): Exceptional - The staff were super friendly and accommodating. We had a welcome juice and unlike other places could take card or cash. The jungle setting and location was quiet a d tranquil and I loved the surroundings. Birds, palm squirrels and the accommodation's dog added to the experience. The room was big and spacious with a back patio area to have drinks and look at the jungle. Tea and coffee and toiletries came with the room, toilet roll. Some places haven't so just thought it was worth mentioning. I loved the outdoor pool and the general outdoor area. I chilled with a book outside. It is 15 min by tuktuk or 8 min drive if you're a local which makes it difficult to walk to places. If you book, then making sure you have your own transport or checkwith the property if they can taxi you to and from where you need to go.
Alexandra (8/5): Very good -
Stephen (8/5): Very good -
Madugalla (8/5): Overall great location to stay and to relax. Rooms are spacious and well cleaned. - The rooms were so spacious and clean Nice pool very good breakfast
Cristian (10/5): Good place to spend quality time, quiet. - The hotel is very cozy and has a great design to it with an amazing jungle garden. Stuff was extremely friendly and helpful. We highly recommend this accommodation. The bathroom cleanliness could have been a bit better, however it was above other places in Sri Lanka we stayed.
Tara (10/5): Exceptional - Second time we come in this nice hotel! Again excellent, the staff is super friendly, the accomodation very clean and the food delicious. We will definitely come again!!!
Jop (10/5): Exceptional -
Elina (5/5): Not so quiet! - Secluded location tophill in middle of jungle (7min with tuk tuk from beach) clean room&bathroom Nice pool area Manager organised airport pick up & early check in 9am Welcome drink For breakfast eggs prepared to your liking Not so quiet after all, during our second night we were woke at 4am by very load trance EDM music party to our surprise as we were the only guests, it was party was near the pool area with bunch of people, we complained several times to manager calls&texts, however music didnt stop and was not turned lower volume , and manager admitted that it was he who is putting the music. At 9am we could not tolerate it anymore and left for another hotel, still expecting full refund from the hotel.. During all our travels this is first case, especially we were with 3yo child and sleep is crucial
Pradeepa (9/5): Superb - Breakfast was superb and that was more than expectation. Pool location is good and if you need a bar there is a pool bar as well. If you want read books and stay calm after a heavy day in the sea with sun burn, this is the ideal place to rest.
Raviwikey (9/5): Spent a wonderful two days with a relaxed mind. Thank you Garcenia staff for everything - Hotel Garcinia was an excellent piece of tranquility in a green environment. Manager Frank is a very friendly person who quickly responds and tries his best to fulfill all our needs. The bed was nicely decorated with rose flowers, and the room was clean and spacious. The food was delicious, but the available variations were limited within our package. some leakage happened from ceiling during heavy rain.
Shahid (9/5): Superb -
Pietro (8/5): Very good -
Mia (10/5): Great stay - This stay was great! The staff is very accommodating and kind. They had great food and the view is pretty.
Tilly (8/5): Clean spacious rooms. - Nice big comfy rooms. Very clean. Very far out, up a long dark path no cars can fit so very hard to find if you do not know where you are going. No food available.
Gangadaran (10/5): Exceptional -
Monique (9/5): Superb - Lovely guy running this place, the food was so good make sure you eat chicken curry there at least one of your evenings!! bit out of the way but we liked that because Hikkaduwa wasn’t so much our scene, just rented a scooter easily. We were upgraded to the family room which was huge, did seem to get a lot of mosquitos in but was soon remedied with a mosquito net! Nice pool and in a quiet area to chill.
Aida (10/5): It was a great accomodation and when had a really good time there. - the beautiful nature around the location the first time you have to find it, but once you’ve been there it’s easy
Elsemarijn (8/5): Very good - Beautiful place, close to Hikkaduwa city centre. Their neighbour is a friendly tuktuk drive who will bring you around if needed. Relax at the pool and enjoy the birds and chipmunks
Ainharan (9/5): Great hideaway with nature - The place is ideal for hideaway breaks. Beautiful architecture is located in the middle of the cinnamon garden. The manager Frank was so friendly and very accommodating. Far away from the beach but again, this place is not promoting the beach but the stay within. So I can really say I didn't like this fact but just sharing for others, if you are looking for a break where you wanna real, this is the place.
Wing (9/5): Superb -
Maaish (10/5): Amazing - I recently stayed with my family and it was a truly enjoyable experience. The place had a great atmosphere and the staff were incredibly friendly, making us feel welcome from the moment we arrived. The highlight of our stay was definitely the pool, which we all loved. The overall cleanliness and maintenance of the hotel were impressive as well. I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a relaxing and pleasant stay. Nothing to dislike
Lara (10/5): beautiful place to land in the outskirts of Hikkaduwa. - The rooms are large, clean and fresh, and the setting is beautiful, high up amongst the sri lankan jungle with the lizards, the birds and the butterflies. Our host, Frank at Garcinia leaf looked after us extremely well, helping us arrange transport and anything else we needed. The food is local, simple and fresh, and the pool is a delight. When we stayed it was with other sri Lankans and no tourists in sight, which was lovely, but may be due to it's distance from the beach and town with requires a tuktuk ride each time as it is a steep 45 minute walk.
Ishan (9/5): Superb - Very good place, quite environment, staff is very helpful, pool and restaurant good.

Duncan (10/5): The Garcinia Leaf - Very friendly staff always happy to help. Excellent service, room cleaned everyday with fresh towels etc. Sri Lankan Curry was outstanding. The pool is fantastic, Peacocks strolling past while you swim. Lots of exotic birds flying around. Peaceful and relaxing. I would recommend it to anyone who wishes to relax and be pampered. The rooms are big and so are the comfortable beds. You get a fridge which is good. No mosquito net.

Brenda (8/5): Best stay I stayed at with my family. - Yes loved my stay at the Garcinia except the road to the hotel was too narrow for my experience but the staffs and the food was devine exceptional! The road to the hotel was too narrow for a vehicle.
Keerthi (10/5): Very good value and tranquil location - Was a very pleasant stay at a beautiful location The manager Frank was very friendly and helpful. The room was very spacious and easily accomodated four people. The facilities overall were very well maintained. The breakfast was a joy. Incredibly good value for money and highly recommend this hotel.
Shakila (1/5): Closed down - Nothing The place was closed when we reached them. Do not visit this place. So unprofessional they didn’t even care to rerun any of our calls.
Verified traveler (10/5): - An oasis of calm in the countryside! Lovely rooms, lovely pool area & a fantastic place to watch the jungle wildlife! The manager was super helpful too. The beach is a 40 min walk away, or a short tuk tuk ride.
Tim (10/5): fabulous service - Beautiful resort .Only 7 rooms so very serene and in effect in jungle .Perfect service from Lali and Harry who have very good English and couldn't have been more helpful . On the downside it is 2 miles from beach , the rooms that are double height have uninsulated roof and creatures ? nocturnal birds / lizards run round at night which kept me awake . I would suggest to owner putting in a false ceiling to dampen that noise and also cut the cost of AC by 50% ??
Andrew (10/5): Superb - Thoroughly recommend these apartments. They are a 5 min ride away from the main beach. So lovely and peaceful. Perfect for couples or families. The gardens and surrounding area are beautifully kept. Swimming pool and sunbed area are spotless and maintained to the highest standard. Also the restaurant area and rooms are beautifully designed and again, kept spotlessly clean. Food was fantastic, really cant fault a thing. Fresh ingredients and the prawn dewal was stunning. Now on to the service, the manager and all of his team, and that includes everyone from the cleaner to the gardener are absolutely fantastic. The level of attention to your needs really are second to none. Nothing was too much trouble and the way they go about their work with a lovely friendly attitude really did top off a fantastic stay . Thanks to you all. If you want a peaceful stay surrounded by wonderful people then this place is for you.
Dunstan (8/5): - Unfortunately we couldn't stay at Garcinia Leaf due to reservation problem. However hotel staff were being nice to find us another place (the address Hikka by Sithi Villas) instead. So overall we had a pleasant stay during our two days holiday despite the issue had initially. Support received from Garcinia Leaf is appreciated. Also we appreciate hotels.com fair policy as well.
Beverley (10/5): Lovely! - Beautiful boutique hotel. Lovely rooms. Quick tuk tuk ride to the main road with loads of restaurants/bars as well as the main beach. The staffs English wasn't very good which made things a bit hard. But we still loved our stay!
