Amazing location in the middle of the forest. The sounds of nature are just out of this world and you can spot all kinds of animals from your bungalow. Can be intimidating for a person traveling alone but also very very fascinating. Loved the breakfast and the kindness of all staff members. I miss the peace already!

If you're looking for an authentic Sri lankan experience and wanna be treated more as a friend rather than a guest, choose Jungle Host Hostel. Chooti and Diva - the hosts, took good care of me and showed me some secret places around. We had so much fun spotting elephants at night, watching plenty of sunsets and sunrises. I think I also learned a lot about the Sinhala culture cause it was a bit like a Couchsurfing experience. I met some great travellers in the hostel! It was definitely my best stay in Sri Lanka and I'm grateful for that. The rooms are also very nice and clean.

Very friendly owners! They make you feel welcome right away. They suggested several activities in the area and arranged a tuktuk for us. They were ready to answer questions and help out at any time and made sure we were ok. Breakfast is great and varies every day with local dishes. Swimming pool is very nice to relax after a hot day.

A homestay with one room for travellers. (There is a second for drivers.) The facility is one year old (March 2025). Spacious neat room and new bathroom. A terrace with an outdoor lounge, with a lot of plants and decoration from local craft. The host Samanti has made much effort to make a cosy place of the homestay. Very quiet place - you hear only the sound of birds. Tea, coffee and drinking water the whole day. Extensive and delicious breakfast and dinner. The husband is also tuktukdriver. Both are very friendly, sincere and caring. They make the house to a little paradise in Sigiriya.

How peaceful and quiet the place was, surrounded by nature. Everyone who was working was really friendly and even with the location being a bit out the way was no trouble getting any help in ordering transportation. Breakfast was good and rooms are very spacious and comfortable.

Nestled in a lush, tropical garden setting, Cloudz Sigiriya provides a wonderfully serene escape. What truly sets this place apart is the impeccable, personalized service; the attentive staff go above and beyond to make your stay special. Our modern cabana was flawless, featuring a comfortable King Size Bed and the fantastic, unique open-air shower—taking a shower under the stars, a clear highlight of our trip! We spent hours relaxing on the sunbeds by the large pool. The food is great - lots of Choice for Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner including Typical Local Cuisine and more Western Choices (Eggs Benedict, Avocado Toast, Pad Thai). Highly recommend this distinctive and peaceful stay near Sigiriya!

I spent 2 nights at Elegant elephant and i really enjoyed the place. It's quite, surrounded by nature and the view of the rock from the room is really nice in the morning. The whole place is clean and well maintained. Beds in the room are really comfortable, one of the most comfortable beds in Sri Lanka for me. Owners are also very friendly people, willing to make your stay as good as possible. The food they made for me was absolutely delicious and in big portions. Also, I appreciated the place has WiFi. I recommend this place !

We had a wonderful time at this property, which was very warm and hospitable. Its location is perfect, within walking distance to Sigiriya Rock and the other rock. This property is ideal for families. Additionally, Mr. Sanjeeva (+94 77 919 7974), who managed all our transportation needs at very affordable rates, was a fantastic part of our overall trip.

Dinesh and his family were wonderful hosts. The accommodation was spotlessly clean and the room and bathroom were finished to really high standard. The location is ideal with some really good restaurants nearby. Dinesh encourages birds and wildlife to the beautiful garden. The food was great and Dinesh was able to help us with our ongoing travel plans. This was our favourite place that we stayed on our three week trip and we couldn't recommend Otunna enough.

The location is ideal. Very clean and the cabana dormitory accommodation is really special. Really nice lighting in the evening and plenty of places to sit and chill (lots of comfy hammocks). Note that there are two different standards of dorm rooms - make sure you check which one you booked and specify as I was accidentally shown to the wrong dorm. Not a problem and all sorted in the end.

Our stay at Rockside was perfect. Pasindu and Priyantha both made our stay memorable. Everything was spotlessly clean and our room had everything we may need. Breakfast was delicious and so big we couldn't finish it. The location was ideal as we could walk to town and also Pindurangala and Sigiriya rocks. A local elephant could be spotted in the river too. They tell us they are soon starting to offer cooking classes. We wish them well with this. Priyantha cooks well and has a great sense of humour to go with it.
