Lock in a great price for Back of Beyond - Pidurangala – rated 8.6 by recent guests!

to get started.

Everything was good (room, bathroom, location). No problrms with the mosquito during the night. In the evening/morning we used mosquito spray.

Cristina, Germany

I loved the location. The name suits the property. I stayed in the treehouse and could have spent the entire time there watching the wildlife stream past my view. It was so quiet. Loved the outdoor bathroom. Did the trip to Minneriya park booked through this accommodation and felt it was excellent value for money compared to what other properties in the area were offering. The Gathering is happening right now and we saw over 100 elephants, mongoose, spotted deer, peacocks, water buffalo and more. Hike to Sigiriya is a breeze from here. Food was very tasty and I had breakfast, lunch and dinner on site. Service was excellent.

great tree house experience. Good mosquitos nets. Fantastic bathroom in the treehouse with a nice shower Rented bikes to cycle around the area which was a great day. Recommended. Great climb up Pidurangala Rock. Highly recommended. Great breeze at the top which was very welcome after the hot climb.

Leigh, United Kingdom

Nice manager, helpful. Nice staff. Nice welcome to the property. easy to visit the sites from there. Nice food. Nice bathrooms outdoors. If you like treehouse and sleeping outside in the wild its a great experience . If you don't like animals/insects, for example a frog in toilet or on the bed you should go for the bungalows. Care for environment by not having plastic bottles.

Everything was amazing. The staff were so helpful and kind. Location was perfect for walking to Pidurangala Rock. The dinner and breakfast was so delicious and great value for money. The tree house setting in the bush was a once in a lifetime type of stay and one we will remember forever! Definitely recommend this to everyone visiting Sri Lanka!

This hotel is sort of close to the centre of town, but hard to access. it is a true jungle experience with a lot of nature in and around your room. Unfrotunately the bed wasn't very comfortable and quite hard. Otherwise if you want to experience nature, it's the place to be!

Lana, Australia
