It's easy to reach local attractions from this spot. There are many tuk-tuks and local dining options available. The family running the place is incredibly helpful and can assist with transportation arrangements. Overall, it was a very pleasant experience, and the monkeys stop by often.

Very tasty homemade food. We could walk to the temples. The room was otherwise basic but certainly okay!

What a stunning property! The hosts were exceptionally warm and provided us with useful tips, making us feel right at home. Breakfast was definitely a standout! It was always a bit different and felt very authentic. Personally, I liked the room in the main house better than the treehouse (we did switch rooms at one point), but that's just my preference. Overall, it was perfect!

Great place to stay

We spent two nights in a room for three people. The accommodations were spacious and kept clean, and the bathrooms were also very tidy and modern. There was both air conditioning and a fan available. They offered a quaint terrace where we could unwind while enjoying views of the garden and trees. The family running the place was extremely friendly and attentive. Breakfast was abundant, featuring traditional dishes. Overall, we felt very, very comfortable during our stay.

We initially reserved the treehouse but switched to the main house after just one night. Unfortunately, the online photos didn’t accurately represent the reality, as the place is quite dated and clearly needs some renovations. On the bright side, the location is convenient, with many attractions nearby and easy to access. The host family deserves special recognition; they are incredibly warm and supportive. They arranged a tuk-tuk ride for us at a fair rate, which was really helpful. Dinner was also fantastic – we wholeheartedly recommend the food. It's evident that the family puts in a lot of effort to make their guests feel at home. We also strongly suggest the safari they organized. We were picked up right by jeep and had an exceptionally wonderful experience for a very reasonable price.

The location is fantastic, close to various local attractions. After spending one night in the treehouse, we decided to switch to another room, as the treehouse felt a bit outdated and not very comfortable. Fortunately, we had no trouble moving to a spacious room in the main house. The host family was incredibly friendly and accommodating. The food was outstanding, especially dinner, which we thoroughly enjoyed. If you overlook the treehouse, the value for the price is quite good.

We really enjoyed our time here. The hosts were incredibly welcoming, the rooms were comfortable, and the pricing was great. They were also very helpful in arranging our trip to Sigiriya. Plus, the breakfast was among the best we had throughout our entire journey! Thank you for making our visit to Dambulla so memorable!

This place has a stunning jungle vibe and is truly beautiful. The family running it is very welcoming, and the hosts are fantastic at helping arrange visits to nearby attractions. Nisha, the cook, is exceptional, and I strongly recommend enjoying dinner here. It's just a short walk to the rock temple, and to reach the golden Buddha, simply turn left and continue until you hit the next intersection, then take another left. There's a path behind the police station that leads directly to the accommodation.
