The food was delicious, and I appreciated the wide variety of choices available, despite the à la carte menu. The room was luxurious and very clean. Its location near the riverbank, surrounded by lush trees, created a tranquil atmosphere with the soothing sounds of flowing water. We appreciated the hotel's outbound training facilities, especially the boat rides on Samanalaweva reservior. The staff were very well-trained, and their guidance made the experience truly enjoyable.

Overall, I had a very positive experience, and I cannot fault the hotel or its facilities. The only area for potential improvement is in staff training. While the staff were clearly trying their best, and were well-intentioned, they seemed to lack formal training in providing excellent customer service.

Amazing garden, very cool area, and nice rooms. And most of all, very cool staff. Extremely helpful and nice! Also we had visit from monkeys and cute dogs. We slept comfortably. Unfortunately, we could only stay one night - we would've loved to stay longer. Do not miss out on the pahathudawa waterfall just close by.

There was a bit of ants in the room. But no other bugs. And there is a lot of jungle nearby which makes it hard to avoid completely. It did not bother us, but nice to know before booking.

Beautiful and peaceful location with a river in the Back yard. Surrounded by greenery and forest. Lasantha and staff are warm and friendly and went above and beyond. I was leaving early morning to Horton Plains for a hike and they had a packed lunch ready for me at 4 am! The food was traditional and tasty. There are 3 cottages for accommodation with good wifi, comfortable bed and hot water.

None I can think of. You need to be prepared to negotiate some steps.

The room/ cottage was lovely , the fed was super comfortable and the bathroom was really great with a powerful shower. The location of the cottage was so peaceful and quiet and you could hear any sounds from the road. Dirula went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed particularly a Wi-Fi router to help with some difficult personal issues we were having to deal with. Much appreciated. He also organised a driver to take us to Worlds End Hike. Cannot fault our short stay here.

The road side restaurant is a bit noisy but the food was very reasonable and delicious

I had a wonderful stay! The room was spotless and very comfortable. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, always ready to help with a smile. The meals were absolutely delicious—every dish was fresh and full of flavor. I also loved the beautiful view from my window—it made the stay even more relaxing. Plus, the location is perfect, close to everything but still peaceful. Highly recommend!

We loved this place and found it completely by accident - I am so glad we did! Beautiful scenic views and very delicious food. Dulara Silva was the loveliest man and made our stay so fun. Organised loads of activists for us (trekking, kayaking, zip lining and waterfalls) He made sure we were always smiling. All the staff were incredible- nothing was too much trouble. Thank you!

The hotel was in the woods, near the mountains and river. It was really peacefull to sleep in the room, because all you can hear ir the river next to the house and birds:) truly recommend! And also in the reception during the papers work the manager gifted us a Papaya drink. I was really pleased by that.

The private big Chalets with a modern clean ensuite. The wooded setting near the water made it a super place to relax. The in-house SL breakfasts were superb

Nothing! May be the location of the Restaurant close to the main road. Was compensated by the lovely views especially of Horton Plains.

Everything. Probably the nicest room (cottage) during my bikepacking trip in Sri Lanka. Really down to the detail. Super flexible and helpful. Good food.

The tablecloth shall be changed more often or at least when it’s dirty.
