This boutique guest house is fantastic, located in front of the Samabe lake. This is such a peaceful, relaxing and quiet environment. A real paradise for all nature lovers - located just a few minutes away from Dambulla center. For now, there are only 2 cottages in the property. So basically the stay is very private (no noise around). The cottage size is very good with a terrace from where you can enjoy the view of the lake. The personnel is very friendly - and insisted to invite me for a lovely boat tour on the lake for free. Surprisingly there was no mosquito in the cottage whereas we could think that there might be due to the proximity of the lake. The WiFi was working very fine. All was perfect. From this place, i did visit Dambulla (e.g Golden temple) and its surroundings- up to Habarana for a half a day safari (mainly elephants spotted) in the national park of Minneriya/Eco lodge. Spent 2 wonderful nights …and wish I would have more time to stay more !

All the sites were wonderful - Sigiriya (the rock), Dambulla Caves (Amazing - especially cave #2), Polonnaruwa (Ancient City), Elephant Safari saw 40 to 50 elephants - Mothers and their children on a ridge at the very end of the safari! It was a great day to be able to see that many in the game reserve all together. I would spend minimum 3 but really 4 nights up here as the travel day really doesn't count because you aren't running out to see anything until the next day, so this way you have 3 full days to see all the sites and it isn't rushed. Also, you go out early in the morning as it gets too bloody hot in the middle of the day.

Dambulla is a great place to explore, especially if you are a nature lover. Lots of greenery is preserved amidst the cave temples. Frescos at the Dambulla cave temple are amazingly beautiful. Inside the caves are cold though the outside temperature is steaming hot in the summer.
Sigiriya rock is another attraction near Dambulla. It will take a half a day tour to climb up and down but if you want to explore more, the area surrounding the Sigiriya rock garden is vast and can wonder around the rock garden and historical ruins for hours. Good for hikers.
Ibbankatuwa ancient grave yard, Pidurangala (A rock with nice view at the top, situated parallel to Sigiriya Rock are some of other nearby attractions.

First of all we would like to thank the owner and the management for giving us the opportunity to stay at this beautiful resort.
Colin and Ajit did a wonderful job of looking after us
They are hard working, sincere and committed in their work.
Few things that need to be sorted out were the overgrown creeper in the front which is preventing sunlight from entering the front of the house.
Lighting in the room and bathroom need to be brighter. A stronger Wi-Fi would be welcome
Overall an enjoyable stay
Hope to visit again

I was there for two days and the only place we actually enjoyed was sigirya/pidurungala rock which are not even in a city. Tuk tuk drivers are scamming tourist like crazy and there is almost no sidewalk so it makes it very hard or impossible to walk. The golden temple is good to see but I wouldn’t go back. Overall I wouldn’t go back there. I saw it once and that is more than enough. Please note that if places in dambulla carry some religous meaning to you than your opinion might differ.

A centrally located tourist friendly town.
A centrally located tourist friendly town. 65 Km from Anuradhapura, 16 km from Sigiria and Pedurangala, 110 km from Kandy and 65 km from Polonnaruva. Cave temple and golden temples are the main local attractions while nearby Sigiria and Pedurangala provide more adventure, in terms of climbing and view at the top. Plenty of places to eat local food for your taste, just say what and how you like it they will make it. Best places for a rice and curry lunch is on the main roads leading in to town, just outside of town. They serve lunch from noon to two in the afternoon.
We really appreciated Pradeep’s hospitality and kindness. As a host, he was great to communicate with and went above and beyond to make sure we had a great time in Dambulla. He organised a driver for a full day of activities and we really felt like we got a proper welcome and experience of the smaller, more local feel in Sri Lanka staying at Blue Mountain with his family. We loved sitting on the balcony and drinking tea with him and the other guests, such a cosy and authentic stay!
If you are looking for accommodation in the heart of Dambulla with a special flair, Krishan and his family will give you a very warm welcome. The rooms have their very own style but are kept very clean. Krishan always had a tip ready and was always available for a chat. His mother also conjures up the very best Sri Lankan dishes. If you want to visit Dambulla and the surrounding area and don't have a driver, Krishan with his Tuk Tuk will take you everywhere.
We booked Tropical Life very last minute for 1 night and we are so glad we did - it's been the best hotel we've stayed in so far on our Sri Lanka trip! It's excellent value for money, with a lovely pool (which we had sandwiches and chips round!) and rooms with a stunning view. The staff are great and were helpful in organising taxis. The gym is an added bonus! We've already recommended the hotel to others and will continue to do so. Thanks!
Lovely family run hotel in beautiful peaceful setting but still a short walk to town. Host was very kind. Drove us to Royal Caves nearby and organised a tuk tuk to sigirya. Room was spacious. Beds very comfortable. Lovely outdoor area with tables for breakfast and relaxing. Breakfast was very good. Big plate of fresh fruit plus bread and a Sri Lankan favourite- a kind of coconut and honey pasty. Wifi great. Great value for money.
It was a wonderful place to stay, in a beautiful location and very close to visit the Dambulla Cave temples. We arrived in the evening and were warmly welcomed by the hosts who also arranged us a tasty dinner on our first night. I couldn’t recommend this place enough! It was the first night of our honeymoon in Sri Lanka and it was a perfect welcome to the country
We enjoyed our stay here a lot. The hotel owner made us feel welcome, gave us lots of informations and was organizing trips to the surrounding sight. We can also recommend the dinner at the hotel, which was very good traditional Sri Lankan food.
The room was basic but had everything we needed.
Clean rooms, tasty Sri Lankan food and a nice pool to relax from the sightseeings in Dambulla and region around. Manager/owner was very helpful in helping us with advice on what to do and arranging taxi/tuktuk services. Plus we were shown a "sunset point" on one of the hills nearby."
The hotel was amazing. An oasis of peace outside of city center. The pool is small but sufficient to relax, next to the restaurant area. Back garden is also cool. They make a lot of effort to make clients feel relaxed. The large family room was well equipped, clean and quiet.
The best hotel we had at Sri Lanka. Amazing and very helpful hosts. The room was very clean and spacious. There was also a small kitchen with a sink and fridge. A hair dryer was available in the room.
The hotel is located in the center of Dambulla. Very close to shops.
Nice hotel with spacious clean rooms. We had booked breakfast and dinner, which were very good. The location is O.K., near the Dambulla caves. Personnel friendly and helpful.
The room is very spacious and clean, hotel has got a chill vibe. we had good sleep on the big bed. Breakfast was very good, in general quite good value in Dumbulla.
