Staying with Asanka and his family was a truly wonderful experience! Their kindness, hospitality, and warmth made us feel completely at home. The apartment was very clean and comfortable, and the attention they give to each guest is truly impressive. Breakfast was absolutely delicious, with something fresh and different every day. We also had lunch and dinner a few times (for an additional cost), and the food was just as amazing – homemade and full of flavor. Asanka also took us around all the local sights with his tuk-tuk, which made exploring the area very easy and enjoyable. We highly recommend this place to anyone looking for an authentic and pleasant stay in Sri Lanka!

Brand new hotel, really clean, great sized room, comfy bed, lovely food and amazing staff. Bernard was an amazing host, helping us with tours to lions rock, dinner and transport to our next location. He went over and above every time he interacted with us. The other boys that worked there were so helpful and nothing was too much trouble. Would stay here again and again!

In one word: brilliant. When you have to make a decision about a green friendly and outstanding homestay, don' t hesitate but book a Treehouse from Ruwan. It's a fantastic experience. Nice curry's , kind hospitality and Ruwan's experience about nature. The Treehouse is located in the middle of the jungle with all its colours and sounds. We did an elephant trip with him and his nephew on a jeep safari in national park Hurulu. We could almost touch this huge animals. Afterwards a visit to the Lion Rock which is incredible to see.

We had a wonderful stay, especially on such short notice! Nimal and his team went the extra mile to ensure we were looked after. The villa was incredible, placing you right in the centre of nature and on each walk to the restaurant, we saw beautiful birds and even a peacock! My wife and I were both treated to the famous Sri Lankan hospitality, as mentioned by our friends who visited this beautiful country and hats off to the chef for producing mouthwatering food! The chef even taught us how to make pol roti, a delicious breakfast item in Sri Lanka. We wish we booked more days as the resort offers so much! We will certainly recommend this beautiful resort to our friends and even come back here. Thanks, Wild Grass team for the memorable stay!

Such an exemplary hotel, from the main road if you blinked you'd miss it. The gardens surrounding the hotel are beautifully curated and absolutely full of wildlife, within minutes of checking in we saw all manner of tropical birds, frogs, squirrels lizards and even some small snakes in the ponds lining the central garden path. As a wild life lover this was particularly exciting. The swimming pool was great and had nice views of the jungle in the distance, the room was spacious, comfortable and well lit. Staff were so friendly too, wished I could have stayed longer.

We paid b&b only but had dinner buffet each night which gave us plenty of options. We had an extremely good waiter, called Nipun who looked after us. He was so attentive and was extremely good at his job. Overall lovely stay and experience.

We absolutely loved Sigiriya.

We absolutely loved Sigiriya. There were so many incredible things to do. We hiked up Pidurangala rock where the views of Lion rock and surrounds were breathtaking. Then was the climb up Lion Rock. This was also amazing and so unique. Looking back at my photos now I'm home I am still so in awe of how beautiful it was.To top off our stay, we did an elephant safari for half the day and saw so many elephants. It was such a fun day. I would highly recoend going to see the Dambulla cave temple if you have time. The size of the buddahs and the inticate patterns on the walls ceilings were so beautiful. There are so many restaurants along the main road and the food was delicious. You can easily spend 3 days or more here and not be bored. I would highly recomend it.

Dambulla is a great city with significant historical value in Sri Lanka, especially known for the Dambulla Cave Temple and the Pidurangala Rock hike. To avoid the high heat in the afternoon, I recommend visiting Pidurangala early in the morning or in the evening. An early morning hike offers an amazing and beautiful sunrise view. You can visit the Rangiri Dambulla Cave Temple at any time, but climbing the rock steps can be difficult in the afternoon due to the heat.

Visit to lion rock was a very good experience. But since my stay in Lanka was total of 8 days didn't want to do Pidurangala the next day. If you're keen on wildlife especially birds do keep an eye out, spotted around 12 different species. Lots of stray dogs, got chased by one too 😅.

Dambulla is a wonderful place to stay, ideally located for exploring many nearby attractions on easy day trips. The Dambulla Cave Temple is our favourite highlight, and we especially loved its peaceful surroundings. Throughout our stay, we enjoyed delicious traditional food, which was truly exceptional. The people are incredibly friendly and always helpful, adding to the overall charm of the experience. Dambulla is also home to a large river and an international cricket ground, making it a great place to visit for cricket lovers when matches are on. Getting around is very convenient, with options including private tuk-tuk hire, self-drive tuk-tuks, or public buses. Dambulla is our favourite place to relax, explore, and truly enjoy a holiday in Sri Lanka.

A beautiful place on earth that there are lots of 360 degree view points. But if it rains it will ruin your plans. So make sure you depend on weatherly and visit Matale when it shows many continuous sunny days. Even on cloudy forecasts do not visit as all mointain tops then will be covered and you will not see the sights. when it is humid leaches also will be active and will become a painful experience.

Sigiriya is fine the problem is the stupidity of the facility management in that place, I think it has tried to go in too much truistic direction we have completely lost in touch with reality, I am a Sri Lankan traveling with my German partner, and we found it quite difficult to find where to go to and conveniently get our tickets and enter the location, you have to park in a specific place for tourists, and locals separately and then go to two different locations to just get the stupid pre printed ticket and then go in two separate lines in the security to just rip off the stupid tickets even when there was no one on the queue at the security,. I think its just has become stupider over time and totally useless, and also everything in Sigiriya is not changed and new routs and things are being changed and its not the same place anymore, I think they need to find a way to protect what it used to be rather than change so much.

Mainly there are 10-12 attractions in Matale. As I just stayed one day which was not sufficient to visit all the places. Among them where I went were also hampered due to the rain at time to time. Generally Matele was quit good tourist destination if it is planned well with couple of days.
