Had a wonderful stay at Water Side Residence! The location is absolutely perfect—peaceful, scenic, and ideal for relaxing. The owners were incredibly kind, welcoming, and always ready to help, which made the experience even more special. The food was also very delicious with great quality and taste. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a comfortable and enjoyable stay.

A very lovely place to stay. The staff were amazing — always available and extremely helpful with advice and organizing our trip, especially for Adam’s Peak but also for the rest of our journey. We ate very well there, and we were really pleasantly surprised by the place. We truly appreciated our stay.

Very friendly and helpful. Short walk to the trail head.

“Highly recommend if you are climbing Adam’s Peak. Family run property who are very helpful.”

Location, family, hospitality, view from the property. Would have liked to stay here longer and will definitely go back. Ruwan and his family are so welcoming, hospitable and very helpful.

“The place to be if you want to climb Adam’s Peak”

Amazing view of Adam’s Peak, and nice jungly atmosphere Extremely nice and available staff (nice tips on climbing Adam’s Peak, help finding the right bus, etc.) Clean and spacious room Delicious food (takes a while because it is freshly prepared, but worth the wait) Proximity to the start of the climb (around 10 min)

“Nice stay”

Very friendly and helpful family. Beautiful view from the restaurant and living room of the residence.

Was a good Location for Adam’s Peak, Personal was really nice and helpful. Shower and bed were a dream. Best in Sri Lanka so far.

Great location, very friendly and helpful people and very good and affordable food in the restaurant! Definitely recommended if you’re staying in Nallathannyia. We also got good tips for hiking Adam’s Peak/Sri Pada!

“Great stay in Water Side residence”

Fantastic location, right in front of Adam’s Peak. Hosting team was amazing, very kind and helpful.

“Everything you need to relax”

The staff were friendly and helpful and professional. The room is big, the bathroom was clean and the view was nice. The location was great for my chosen activities. There is food available most of the day and reasonably priced tea and coffee. I would stay again.

Great location if you’re going to Adam’s Peak, and the staff were very friendly and welcoming.

“Great stay”

Great location for Adam’s Peak/ Sri Pada, we stayed two nights and enjoyed the view over the mountain, hills and river, it was super peaceful. The staff were very helpful and accommodating - providing food in the restaurant at odd hours, helping us organise a joint taxi with another guest, providing a yoga mat for use after the hike. Would recommend!

“Exceptionnel”

Exceptional stay with Ruwan and his family! They are all caring and bend into 4 to help us. The rooms are superb, the view too and the food too good! We will keep a great memory of our stay.
