The nicest hosts during our two weeks in Sri Lanka. This is a nice, clean and well equipped accommodation (AC, hair dryer, drinking water, soap, etc.) in the middle of the jungle. The family is very kind and helpful. They made us a delicious dinner and Sri Lankan breakfast. For the dinner we could choose from a menu and everything was home cooked. They also waited us with a welcome drink (smoothie). They have an outdoor kitchen in their courtyard and spice garden, where cooking classes are held. Highly recommend this place for a few nights!

This home stay is just everything u need in Sigiriya. perfectly located in the middle of the village. The hosts are very attentive and help a lot if u want to arrange activities or transportation for a fair price (arranged 4:45 am tuktuk for sunrise hike, safary, transport to Dambulla and other cities. They also offered us a dinner for 1800 rupees, which was cheap compared to local restaurants and the best food we had in the area!! Price value ration is definitely good, especially since u ought to pick an accommodation in this range cause entrance fees and activities are quite pricy there. Highly recommend!

This treehouse and everything that comes with it was just incredible. We cant imagine better first days in Sri Lanka (nothing can beat this place after we experienced it). Location, surrounding nature and its sounds at night - I haven never slept this good ever in my life. On top of that, the family that owns this place really made us feel at home, their two little girls Dewni and Nethu that spoke beautiful english kept us company and it was fun to be around them. If you love dogs, this place was heaven on earth, they have 5 lovely dogs and one of them little puppy Maxi, we miss all of them already. And last thing - the homemade food - super delicious, the beast we had in Sri Lanka. When we told them we expect a baby, they took care of me as if I was their family member, always made sure I had plenty of food and when driving us to the city with tuktuk, they made sure we hit no bumps on the rode. Thank you again for everything and hope to see you again soon! Sending love to your family, girls and dogs.

    Great hospitality ,so reasonable and valuable experiences. I swam in near lake with host family.Locals wash their bodies and clothes there. so I also washed my body. Host took me the Rock to watch sunrise, it was so beautiful view ,on the way home fortunately I saw wild crocodile. After that I rode an elephant (5000LKR required). They served so delicious and local breakfast. He was the best host ever. If you stay here,your satisfaction with staying in Sigiriya will be greatly improved.

    I really loved staying at Pidurangala View Home Stay ♥️ the hosts are amazing, super kind and attentive and will help you to organize your schedule so you can make the most of tour time. Also, the location is incredible, it is a 10 min walk to the entrance to the Lion Rock and a 5min walk to the entrance of Pidurangala. Those walks are so scenic, you can spot monkeys, butterflies, peacocks, it is perfect. The food is so delicious, I totally recommend that you have dinner at this homestay, it is SO delicious 🙏🏻 Loved the hosts ♥️

The homestay is also walkable distance to a lovely restaurant called Nirwana. Breakfast was delicious and the view from the terrace of Lions Rock is unmatched. You are really in the middle of the jungle here!

    we really enjoyed the location of the homestay as it is located a bit outside of the main road/tourist area. Free drinking water is available and if you pre-order it, you can also eat lunch and dinner there. Jayanti's lovely dog Lora was very friendly towards us and Jayanti hereself is a great host (we didn't have the chance to book it but she also offers cooking classes)
