This is a truly excellent small hotel, incredibly peaceful situated within beautiful gardens. The owner and staff were so kind, going out of their way to make our stay special. Even though it’s outside the main part of Dambulla, it’s easy to get around using the hotel Tuktuk or PickMe - and you get the benefit of the peaceful surroundings. The room was lovely with a comfortable bed and very large bathroom, really amazing value considering the price. Breakfast was excellent. Would 100% recommend

We stayed in the Green Edge for 3 nights and we used as a base to visit Sigiriya, Pidiurangala and Polonaruwa.. It is very close to Dambulla but still very quiet. The environment was very relaxing and the staff so friendly and helpful. The breakfast was also very good. Highly recommended.

The Green Edge exceeded all our expectations. It's out of the city but only a few minutes by tuktuk which makes it perfect. The rooms were very clean and really well maintained. Breakfast was simple and tasty. The staff was so friendly and always happy to help.

“A fabulous stay.”
The property was one of the best we stayed in Sri Lanka: a clean and cared place, the sheets perfumed, a comfortable bed. We were really well looked after about our needs. A warm and cozy atmosphere.

“The best stay I've had in Sri Lanka!”
The staff were absolutely wonderful and went above and beyond to make my stay comfortable, doing my laundry after I'd been trekking for 3 days and always being available with a tuk tuk to take me into town. The room was lovely, large and with lots of added touches to make it comfortable - quality towels, tea and coffee in the room, toiletries. The outdoor terrace is also a wonderful bonus. The best place I've stayed in Sri Lanka!

“Small and friendly. Accomodation 1st class.”
Staff were fabulous and nothing was too much trouble. Rooms were large and very comfy. Location is quiet and away from the village amongst the green countryside. .. so no noise. Thanks for the torches to climb Sigiriya.. wouldn’t have made it without the light!!

“Ideal accommodation for those looking to explore Dambulla, Sigiriya and surrounding areas”
On arrival we were greeted by our friendly host and shown to our room which was exceptional. It was clean, air conditioned and the bed was extremely comfortable. The included breakfast was delicious, we loved the coconut sambal and Dahl. For a small price of 2,500 Sri Lankan rupee you can have dinner which included a selection of five curries, rice and papadums. The home stay will organise your day trips to sigiriya and the temple etc. Nothing to fault, it was the perfect, quiet, secluded place to stay. Highly recommend.

“Stay Here!”
If you are going to Dambulla there is really only one place to stay and it is this. The approach to the villa is nothing short of enchanting with beautiful gardens and verandahs overflowing with art. Everywhere is immaculate; bedrooms, bathrooms and gardens, and the hospitality extended by the staff is the greatest advertisement Sri Lanka could ever have. Convenient for a walk into Dambulla, and yet feels a million miles away from the busy life in town. Walking to Dambulla Cave and Temple took about 25 minutes. Would also recommend Popham's Arboretum, particulary the night walk safari, within walking distance or short Tuk Tuk ride away. All trips can be arranged by staff at the Villa for good prices. Sigiriya Rock also close by Tuk Tuk, seeing it from Pidurangala Rock was the highight for us.
