Lovely stay by the lake

Lovely views by the lake, was a bit out of the town but they have a great tuk tuk driver who is very good value to take you wherever you need to go. Is about 30mins in a tuk tuk from Sigiriya

Beautiful location, great room, fantastic hosts.

Great location, overlooking a lake, which made the delicious breakfasts very picturesque. On one occasion there were rabbits in the garden. I never found out where they came from, but were a welcome addition. The temple in the rocks was situated just over the road, and Sigiriya only half an hour away.

Fantastic place, would go again.

Much bigger room than expected. Beautiful property, with a relaxing garden, overlooking the lake. Breakfast was served here. Staff very friendly and welcoming. Located just opposite the temple in the rocks, and half an hour from Sigiriya. Would highly recommend.

Highly recommended!

The hotel is located about 15–20 minutes from the center of Dambulla, which is actually a big advantage. It’s very quiet and peaceful, surrounded by nature, with views of a small and a large lake near a cliff. Local shops and places with local food are only about a 5-minute walk away. The temple is also very close and can easily be reached on foot. The owners are extremely kind and welcoming, and you can clearly see that they take great care of the property. The room was clean, tidy, and well maintained. The owner also offers safaris and tuk-tuk tours at reasonable prices, and you can easily plan a full day of attractions with him.
