The location is amazing, I fell in love with the place the moment I landed here. The staff was polite and helpful. Mr. Harish and Rasika were friendly and kind. The food was delicious, the cottages are cute, Wi-Fi was strong, everything was so clean and organized. The best thing was the river, and the canal was the icing on the cake. For peace loving people, it was no less than a paradise!

Friendly staff

The rooms were very clean, comfortable, and well-maintained, and the prices were quite reasonable for the quality offered. The Resort Manager, Mr. Harischandra, provided excellent service and took the time to explain and help us explore the surrounding area. He also arranged a vehicle for our trip to Baker’s Bend, along with a skilled and reliable driver, which made our experience even more enjoyable. Mr. Rasika also delivered good service, ensuring that all our food requirements were met and attending promptly to every request. He was efficient, attentive, and always quick to assist. We sincerely appreciate the excellent service provided by both of them. Thank you for making our stay so pleasant and memorable!

Great location. Very peaceful next to a river. Friendly and helpful staff and the restaurant has very good food.

We had a pleasant stay at River Garden. The well designed bungalow was very comfortable, clean and spacious. The location is great, overlooking a beautiful garden and paddy fields, within a short walk the river (nice swim spot) can be reached. The staff was friendly and the dinner we had at the restaurant was tasty, though the portions were quite small. Overall a nice place to stay and explore the beautiful area of Belihuloya

“Awesome”

LOCATION EXCELLENT

“Good”

Location

very calm environment ,nice place.room was very clean and neatly .

First let me start with commenting on other comments. Yes there are some stairs, but its really not a big deal unless you have some problems walking (they will also carry your luggage down and back up). The rooms are spacious, clean, modern and well thought trough. They are a bit moldy in some corners but that is to be expected, also the price reflects things like that. The bathroom is very nice with an actual water preheater so you get really hot water. When first entering the room they prepare incense so it smells really nice. You will also get a tasty welcome drink. There is also 2 bottles of water. In the morning you can look on the rice fields while the sun rises. You can see thr sunrise from your room :). Peacocks, monkeys, rice irrigation channel, it all ads to a beautiful jungle experience and the river a bit lower is perfect to cool down on a hot day. We didnt have a calhamce to try the restaurant. All in all we really liked it and would highly recommend.

“Friendly staff, lovely area but room not up to scratch”

We choose this place as a stopping bridge on our travels and to experience somewhere more remote. The staff were absolutely wonderful and very helpful and organised us a local walking tour which was one of the highlights of our trip to Sri Lanka. The river and waterfalls are a fun place to hang out.

“Fantastic stay – spotless rooms, super friendly staff, amazing food, stunning views, and a perfect location.”

I had a wonderful stay! The room was spotless and very comfortable. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, always ready to help with a smile. The meals were absolutely delicious—every dish was fresh and full of flavor. I also loved the beautiful view from my window—it made the stay even more relaxing. Plus, the location is perfect, close to everything but still peaceful. Highly recommend!

Ants everywhere, hundreds of flying termite coming through the gaps in the windows, had to seal the windows with blankets and spend hours killing them, and still they were running around in the bed all night. The food was really bad quality, the noodles over cooked. And then the gardener trying to sell us stones. We asked if we could rent a kayak, but they could only do it with a guide, we didn't want that, so we said no, he kept talking about responsibility and security, and we said okay let's talk about hiking in the area ourselves, and then he talked about responsibility and security again, in the end we had to go to the room, but he came to our room and start arguing again, we had to tell him if he doesn't stop then we will leave the hotel.

“Great Location”

Fantastic location right next to a beautiful river. Comfortable and cosy cabins. The staff are very friendly and helpful. Room price was good value. Our only problem was that the hotel was a bit run down and showing its age starting from the name board and reception area. Rooms need more pillows and coversheets. I guess we should have asked for one more bed sheet and extra pillows but were too tired after our day out. Didn't have meals in the hotel as there are other restaurants closeby.
