Our stay at Flame Tree Estate was exceptional - we were so happy with our time there. Tucked away in the hills outside of Kandy, the property is exceptional - beautiful setting and decor, kind staff, a gracious and welcoming host. David has created a wonderful atmosphere and we will definitely be back.

United KingdomA tranquil and stunning location in the countryside close to Kandy. Lovely colonial mansion classically furnished. Lovely infinite pool facing the hills and sunset. The staff were amazing and happy to help for any of our requests. Delicious food both for breakfast and dinner (for both international and Sri Lankan food). Room was beautifully furnished with a very comfortable bed and a terrace with a beautiful view.
