"The property is in the lap of nature surrounded by fruiting plants and peacocks. It's an excellent getaway from the hustle of fast-paced city life. The best part was the host who went above and beyond to make our stay enjoyable. As we arrived, he plucked fresh passion fruits from his garden and made juice for us. For lunch, he arranged delicious home-cooked Sri Lankan food. For dinner, we requested grilled chicken and he arranged that as well at reasonable price. He also arranged a safari driver...

"This property is in the middle of nowhere so there it comes the magic. I can’t complain about slow and poor wifi or power issues since this isn’t a hotel but a home stay. The family hosting is among the best people you could ever meet, very attentive with guests and providing an excellent service and serving a tasty land grown food. We really enjoyed our time there, certainly a place to disconnect in the middle of the island "

Sigiriya

"Danu's homestay is the real experience. 5 star service with many smiles. If your looking for an authentic Sri Lankan homestay experience, this is it. Sigiriya is a beautiful little town and Lion Rock is a must do. Get up early to beat the crowds and heat. It opens at 7am. We hired a scooter but Charu the father will drive you if needed. The family are absolutely loving,kind and generous. Make sure you have dinner with them. One of the best meals I've had in Sri Lanka. Now for the suprise...

Top Kandalama Hotel Reviews

Flower Garden Eco Village

8/10 Good

"Room Electricals need some maintenance our bedside lamps were not working. Wardrobe inside finishing was incomplete - but otherwise an excellent location and hotel. Food and pool were great"

AARA Wild Sigiriya

10/10 Excellent

"Aara Wild near Sigiriya was the highlight of our whole Sri Lanka trip. From arrival, the warmth of the welcome set the tone – every member of staff, from housekeeping to guides to the kitchen team, was genuinely, unfailingly lovely. It’s rare to feel so looked after and so at ease at once. The activities were fantastic and varied: a sunset walk with incredible views, a relaxed afternoon tea, a chef’s dinner served poolside under the stars, and a hands-on cooking class. Each felt personal rather than a standard “resort activity.” We travelled with our two young children, and the way the team engaged with them was special – patient, warm and encouraging, and our kids left having formed real bonds with staff. Our 5 year old was in tears when we had to leave, and honestly I was close!! The wildlife was extraordinary right on the doorstep – elephants, lizards, eagles, even a water snake, all without going far. The biodiversity made every walk feel like a small safari. The natural pool was a wonderful centrepiece, and having a private pool at our room too meant we always had the choice of a sociable swim or quiet family time. And the food was genuinely fabulous throughout. Chef was brilliant and we feel ready to have a go at home with all his top tips! If I had to sum it up: Aara Wild isn’t just a beautiful place, it’s full of beautiful people. We’d go back in a heartbeat. Please book Aara!"

Hotel Sigiriya

8/10 Good

"We had a great stay at Hotel Sigiriya! The views of Sigiriya Rock were beautiful, and we really enjoyed the breakfast. Our room was on the smaller side, but it was comfortable enough for our stay. The pool looked lovely as well, although unfortunately we didn’t get a chance to use it. There were two disappointments during our stay. First, before arriving, I contacted the hotel management to request a simple birthday surprise—a decorated room with a “Happy Birthday” message and a small cake. The hotel acknowledged the request, and I even noticed it written in the corner of our check-in paperwork. Unfortunately, the request was overlooked and the surprise never happened. It was a missed opportunity to make an already wonderful stay truly special. Hopefully, they can follow through next time! The second disappointment was on our second day. The cleaning staff made an elephant out of towels and placed it on our bed. When we dismantled it to use the towels, we realized that they appeared to be our previously used towels. We found this quite concerning and unsanitary, especially since used towels had been arranged and placed directly on the bed. Despite these issues, we had a lovely overall stay, enjoyed the beautiful surroundings, and appreciated the friendly service. With a little more attention to these details, the hotel could make the experience truly exceptional. We would consider staying again and hope for an even better experience next time."

Ayugiri Ayurveda Wellness Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Staff were excellent and made every effort to make our stay comfortable. Food was fresh and delicious. We recommend keeping the spa open till later in the day although we note the concern about wild elephants and safety. Overall a great place and we would love to come back"

Sigiriya Jungles

10/10 Excellent

"An amazing place in the middle of the jungle. Monkeys. Lizards? Butterflies all around this resort. Amazing staff. Amazing spa both Rajitha and Erandi treated me and my girlfriend with a 90 minute massage. The massage is very relaxing not like a Thai, Swedish or sports massage. The food is varied and good. Loved the breakfast because of the omelette station. Had dinner there one evening and the options were amazing. Local food is really good I would advise anyone to try local before sticking to their home country food like spaghetti. Perfectly located to visit the Rocks for the hikes. Perfectly located to visit the elephants and wildlife in Minneriya Park. We visited in August. Often find Geckos in your room which is fine as your in a jungle, if you don’t like nature then not sure what to tell you. The showers were very nice. Didn’t go in the pool but the monkeys did 😂 Great resort would recommend to anyone wanting to visit Sirigiya."

Jetwing Vil Uyana, A Luxury Reserve

10/10 Excellent

"Overall, we really enjoyed our experience at jet wing! We came for our honeymoon and our butler did a fantastic job of making it special for us. From the service we got at check-in to check out the staff was great! We really enjoyed the excursions offered by the hotel like birdwatching in the morning. The food was all delicious and we especially liked the morning breakfast. We recommend jetwing to others on their honeymoon, but also saw a lot of families and seemed like a great place for groups as well."
