We stayed at Ginganga Lodge for 7 nights in December and had a fantastic stay. It has to be one of the most beautiful places we have encountered. It is like living in tropical gardens surrounded by the lush flora and fauna. Nature abounds all around you and brings a sense of calm and tranquility. The room was incredible. The level of interior design was breathtaking. The attention to every detail was exceptional. It enhanced our stay beyond all our expectations. Indika,his family and staff were all amazing. They made our stay special. The food was superb. We very much hope to return in the future.

Honestly? This place is magical! Words can not reflect how wonderful the stay with Indika and his wife was for us! It is paradise! Beautiful, my eyes could not get enough! From the beginning we were enchanted! Everything has been thought of! From cinnamon body lotion to being brought water to the pool without being asked! The interior is amazing and everything is very clean! It smells nice everywhere and do not forget to eat there, a dream! From our terrace we could see fireflies and the little puppy Simba is too cute! The place is also very good for excursions, even if you actually do not want to leave! A tuktuk is always ready and Indika even drives himself at really fair prices! All the staff is very friendly and helpful! Thank you for making our time there so indescribable! We have to give a special mention to Indika! Such a smart and insanely emphatic person! We are impressed and deeply grateful for his tips and help when my husband got high fever! I could write so much more, but see for yourself! You will not regret it! I have been to many places that I love, but with great certainty I can say that Ginganga Lodge is in 1st place far ahead of 2nd place! We stayed there for three nights and it was by far the best on our round trip: because of the great location, but especially because of the great people there! We will be back and then definitely for longer! Much Love!
That we have to leave!

What a paradise! We stayed 2 nights at this beautiful resort. A total green and well designed garden, individual villas designed by owner. Every detail we loved it! Especially the welcome, the flowers on the bed and everywhere in the room, many beautiful objects collected by owner, the natures around, the swimming pool. You can feel the owner and their team have good concept of hospitality, to care. Also talked with owner, you feel his total passion about design, about building a place with real care. He also showed us his another new hotel which is amazing too. We also loved breakfast, good choice of various food. We hope we will be back again with family!

Tucked away from the hum of the main road, Ginganga Lodge is not merely a retreat—it is an immersion into the poetry of Sri Lanka’s forest. Here, nature composes its own symphony; the rustling leaves, the chatter of squirrels, and the call of distant birds weave an atmosphere both tranquil and alive. Dappled light filters through the trees, casting ever-changing patterns upon exquisitely curated interiors, where every element seems chosen with a deliberate, almost intuitive sense of harmony. From the moment you arrive, a warmth envelops you—not just from the tropical air but from the staff, who welcome you with the kind of attentiveness that feels more familial than formal. They hear your car long before you reach the entrance, waiting to greet you as though you are returning home. This level of care extends through every facet of the lodge, most notably in the details: the artistry with which the fruit at breakfast is cut, the thoughtful placement of a single, perfect flower, the way each piece of furniture seems to belong to both time and place. The rooms are sanctuaries of refinement—spacious, tastefully adorned, and seamlessly integrated with their surroundings. The bathroom, a masterpiece in itself, features an outdoor shower where one bathes under a canopy of leaves, enveloped in the intoxicating scent of the forest. It is the kind of space that makes departure a reluctant affair, for leaving Ginganga Lodge is not just leaving a hotel; it is stepping away from an experience, a feeling, a reverie made real. For those who seek beauty, serenity, and a place where nature and design exist in perfect dialogue, Ginganga Lodge is nothing short of extraordinary.
