The property is literally in the jungle, and there are plenty of animals roaming around, from fireflies to birds, monkeys, reptiles and frogs, one even came out of the sink, but no worries, he was friendly. We had an observation tower above our room, which put us right above the treetops. Tasty food and very hospitable staff. You won't go wrong choosing tree trails for your stay in Sigiriya.

Certain units in the guest house have private entrance and are equipped with desk and dressing room. Some units include a seating area and/or a patio with an outdoor dining area. At the guest house, some units are fitted with a kettle and fruits. Environment: One of the highlights of this place is the serene environment. From the comfort of my room, I could always hear the melodious chirping of birds, which was incredibly soothing. The garden, situated under a majestic big tree, is beautifully maintained and adds to the tranquil ambiance. It's the perfect spot for a relaxing stroll or simply enjoying nature. Service: The service here is top-notch, primarily because it's a family-run business. Both hosts are extremely friendly and go out of their way to make you feel at home. Their warm hospitality made my stay even more enjoyable. Rooms: The rooms are impressively spacious, providing plenty of room to unwind. A unique feature is the private pool located right at your doorstep. Although it's quite small, around two feet deep, it offers a refreshing dip in complete privacy—ideal for a quick, relaxing moment.

Offering a garden and garden view, Simoya Nature Park is set in Dambulla, 19 km from Sigiriya Rock and 22 km from Pidurangala Rock. Both free WiFi and parking on-site are accessible at the guest house free of charge. The accommodation offers a 24-hour front desk and full-day security for guests. The property was beautiful and the room was spacious, modern and well designed. But the real highlight was the husband and wife team, Madhu and Sanjee. They went above and beyond to make sure my stay was comfortable. I felt so well taken care of—like coming home to family.

He arranged tuk tuks for us to go to Pidurangala rock for the sunrise and showed us lots of other options for things to do. The breakfasts and dinners were amazing - presented beautifully and incredible flavours. Great location, close to Lion rock and just a short walk from town. Cute puppy at the hotel. We would stay again in a heartbeat.
