“Beautiful property amidst the lush greenery”
Nestled amid lush greenery right next to the forest, this property delighted us with peacocks strutting outside our well-maintained room. The owner and his mom were super helpful and warm. Breakfast was one of the best we’ve had in Sri Lanka! Piturangala Rock and Sigiriya Rock are nearby, and the owner even dropped us off at Sigiriya early in the morning.

We had an AMAZING time and would absolutely recommend Banana Rest to anyone wanting a quiet and beautiful location in Sigiriya. The room was basic but clean and for the price was ideal. Rami the owner is so helpful and friendly, we went on his Safari and it was brilliant. The breakfast and dinner was also great. Rami, thank you to you and your family for a wonderful few days.

Nice big area with a lake in front of the rooms. Quiet and away from the crowds. We were traveling with family and kids and everything was worth the price. The staff was very friendly and took good care of us. Thankyou will come again.

The owner Ramith helps with everything and did everything that we’ve asked for. He even drove us to Kandy as there was no other driver available. The apartment has everything you need.
