“A simple yet peaceful retreat”
Our stay at The Calm Cabana was simple but very peaceful. The accommodations are modest and with fewer amenities, yet the location makes up for it completely—quiet, secluded, and far from any noise. A perfect spot for anyone seeking a calm retreat and a chance to unwind in nature.

“Calm, quiet, monkeys, close to Dambulla Cave Temple with friendly helpful staff”
We loved seeing monkeys in the trees in the garden each morning. Sanju and her mother were so helpful and kind. A quiet little oasis close to Dambulla cave temple and 25 minutes from Sigiriya.
