What an amazing stay! Beautiful boutique property with just 6 rooms. Property looks way better in reality than in pictures. Our room was super comfortable and felt luxurious. Lovely bathroom. Amazing pool which my child thoroughly enjoyed. Very helpful, kind, and smiling staff. Beautiful breakfast filled with local delicacies as well as as standards like eggs, cake, bread etc. They serve amazing fresh fruits during breakfast. My son fell in love with the mangoes and the staff were just so kind and indulged my son even when he asked for mango for dinner too (they didn't even charge us for this). The staff also organised local tours for us at very reasonable prices with most reliable car and driver. All in all, this was the best place in srilanka during our trip. Just go ahead and book it!

La Cloudz Sigiriya is an absolutely amazing place, surrounded by beautiful nature! The room was spotless, stylish, and incredibly comfortable. The bathroom was stunning, and we absolutely loved the outdoor garden and pool area — such a peaceful and relaxing atmosphere. The restaurant and breakfast were far beyond our expectations: everything was delicious and beautifully prepared. But what truly made our stay special was the staff. Everyone was incredibly friendly, kind, and always ready to help, finding a solution for anything we needed during our stay. Their hospitality really made us feel at home. I honestly couldn’t recommend this place more! If you’re visiting Sigiriya, this is definitely the place to stay. We absolutely loved every moment and would come back without hesitation!

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at Amba Yalu in Sigiriya. The staff were incredibly attentive and genuinely friendly, making us feel welcome from the very first moment. Both the breakfast and dinner were outstanding. The Sri Lankan cuisine in particular was exceptional—clearly prepared with great care and attention to detail. The location is truly breathtaking. The hotel is set right by a lake and features a beautiful open reception area that blends perfectly with the surroundings. The garden is lush, well-maintained, and filled with numerous mango trees, creating a peaceful and unique atmosphere. The pool, located in the middle of this garden, is simply stunning. We also had a fantastic yoga experience and truly enjoyed the Ayurvedic treatments, which added an extra level of relaxation to our stay. Our room was very comfortable and pleasant, providing the perfect space to unwind after a day of exploring. From the hotel, all major sights in the area are easily accessible by car, which makes it a perfect base for exploring Sigiriya. We had a fantastic time at Amba Yalu and would highly recommend it to anyone visiting the region

We recently had the pleasure of staying at this wonderful hotel, nestled in the breathtaking outback of Sri Lanka, close to Dambulla. It exceeded all of our expectations. From the moment we arrived, we were captivated by the serene, eco-friendly surroundings 🌿. The hotel’s commitment to sustainability is truly admirable, with lush gardens where they grow their own plants and vegetables, creating a beautiful and natural atmosphere 🌱. Our room was super scenic, offering stunning views of the surrounding landscape, making every morning and evening a delight 🌄. It was the perfect place to relax and unwind. The ambiance throughout the hotel was incredibly peaceful, making it easy to leave the stresses of everyday life behind 😌. The food was another highlight of our stay. The dishes were not only delicious but also fresh and full of flavor, undoubtedly thanks to the hotel’s own garden 🥗. Dining here was a true pleasure, with every meal showcasing the care and quality put into the ingredients. One of the most magical experiences we had was seeing fireflies at night, a sight that added an extra touch of enchantment to our stay ✨. The staff at the hotel were equally impressive. They were friendly, attentive, and always ready to assist with a smile 😊. Their dedication to making our stay enjoyable was evident in everything they did. We highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a peaceful, eco-friendly getaway with top-notch service, fantastic food, and stunning natural beauty 🌟. We can’t wait to return!

Wild Grass is a must-visit! This is one of the few resorts I’ve been to where you get an up close and personal interaction with nature. My villa overlooked beautiful forest land all around me, and the pathways leading up to the villa and reception were so immersive. Most of all, they built a lot of anticipation about what the villa would like the first time I walked up because they are so well hidden from pathways and the other villas. The staff were so helpful in attending to all my needs, and service was constantly with a smile. The manager checked in with me before my stay to see if I had any special requests, which I’ve rarely experienced elsewhere. The food is incredible! I was worried about the spice levels in the food because I don’t handle it so well, but they made sure to tame it down for me, and it was great! It was wonderful to see how happy they were for me to try local cuisine, and with the taste, there’s no reason not to. The villa itself was bigger than any hotel I’ve ever been to. I enjoyed lovely Sri Lankan tea in my private living room and got to experience nature from my villa. We went on a guided rock tour, which was great to soak in the views of the property and the surroundings. We even saw Sigiriya Lion Rock from up there. All in all, I would highly recommend staying here. The villas are tastefully designed and spacious, the food is just mouthwatering, and the staff are amicable and attentive. You can’t ask for more.

One of the most tranquil and peaceful stays of our travels so far. Everything about this property was outstanding - the staff and the service , the room which was spacious with comfortable and huge bed , plunge pool and overlooking greenery , spacious and huge bathroom . We had booked the stay which included their Ayurvedic doctor and treatment and it was heavenly. Top notch quality and very peaceful. Note that the Ayurvedic Center closes at 4pm and rightly so. Would advice to choose full board ( breakfast , lunch and dinner) and opt for Ayurvedic food ( if you prefer vegetarian) . The food was clean , light , local and tasty. We also saw a peacock in the morning right beside our room. The team also provided us very good tips on the time we should visit the lion rock ( for sunrise to avoid crowds) and helped us book a safari to the Kaudulla national park which was one of the highlights of our stay. The property is built on over 70 acres and gives you the green , lush, expansive feel. Thank you to the staff - Chandana ( manager) , praveen , Hasitana ( the chef) and the two people who served breakfast. Everyone serves with a smile and a peaceful demeanour . I had also shared that it was my partners birthday ( a few hours before arriving) and they had made such nice birthday arrangements ( balloons , cake , room decor ). We will surely refer this place to our friends and family and be back here for sure .

We spent the first two nights of our holiday to Sri Lanka and it was a incredible start. We received a warm welcome, with a welcome drink, flowers, snacks and a cold towel. The incredible service continued for the rest of the stay, Upali who looked after us was a credit to the hotel. The food in the restaurant, as well as the cocktails in the bar were fantastic. The rice and curry was one of the best we have had in our whole holiday. The location is perfect for visiting the Sigiriya attractions, and tuk tuks can be arranged to take you wherever needed. The paddy dwelling was incredibly peaceful and equipped with everything needed for your stay. We also enjoyed walking around the hotel grounds and visiting their farm, as well as watching the local wildlife including wondeful bird life and monkeys.

Beautiful hotel with exceptional staff. A special thank you to our naturalist Noel, with whom we did three wonderful tours (an incredible elephant safari, an educational and interesting trip to Lion’s Rock, and a cool hike to Pidurangala Rock). Noel constantly went above the call of duty and is a massive asset to the hotel. A special word of thanks also to our attentive and punctual porter, Sasika, who took great care of us. Thank you to the whole Water Garden Sigiriya team for making our first trip to Sri Lanka so memorable - we will return!

Loved the Dambulla Cave Temple, quite amazing considering the level of technology they had to carve the statues out of the rock face. We found a lovely little family shack offering rice, curry and roti called Baappi's Tasty Roti, all of which was cooked fresh in front of us. Also had a great wander round the largest fruit and vegetable market which was heaving! But there are quite a few other local sites which we didn't have time to see.

Last weekend, I had the pleasure of visiting the magnificent Sigiriya with my family, and it was truly a remarkable experience. The breathtaking scenery, fascinating history, and incredible beauty of this world-famous heritage site made our visit unforgettable. Sigiriya is much more than a historical monument; it is a masterpiece of ancient Sri Lankan engineering, architecture, and creativity. The majestic Lion Rock, surrounded by lush greenery and stunning landscapes, creates a truly magical atmosphere. Spending quality time with my family in such a beautiful and historically significant place made the experience even more special. Sigiriya is undoubtedly one of Sri Lanka’s greatest treasures and a must-visit destination for anyone who appreciates nature, history, culture, and beauty. A truly memorable family outing and an experience we will cherish for years to come. Highly recommended to both local and international visitors! 🇱🇰❤️

It's a beautiful place; the cave temples were nice, though it's a bit exhausting to go to the temple. I would definitely recommend a food joint called Baappa’s Tasty Roti (බාප්පාගෙ රොටී කඩේ). It's literally the best hospitality and service I have ever had. The address of Baappa’s Tasty Roti: New Padeniya Rd, Dambulla 21100, Sri Lanka It would be great for you to hire a local tour guide to take you on village tours. You can reach out to me through my site to help you curate an amazing tour with a tour guide. www.abodid.com

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 a beautiful place that I would highly recommend...

Sigiriya is a beautiful place that I would highly recommend to both local and international tourists. One of the highlights for us was watching the sunset from Pidurangala Rock – the view is absolutely amazing. I would also recommend reading about the history and stories behind Sigiriya Rock and Pidurangala before visiting. It makes the experience even more interesting and helps you appreciate both the scenery and the history of Sri Lanka. We personally didn’t have any problems with elephants, but we heard several stories from local villagers about encounters and attacks in the area. So it is always good to be aware of your surroundings, especially when travelling in the evening or at night. Overall, Sigiriya is definitely worth visiting – beautiful nature, incredible views and fascinating history.

Dambulla is a great city with significant historical value...

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.

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.
