I can’t recommend Ceylon Ayu Resort enough. My girlfriend and I stayed here during her birthday, and the staff at the resort helped me arrange several surprises, which made her birthday unforgettable. Rodney and the rest of the staff are friendly, welcoming, and very helpful. We enjoyed the pool, a free massage, and the jungle views from the hotel. The day trip arranged by the hotel was great, and maybe the best part of our stay was the food. We asked for Sri Lankan food, and it was some of the best we’ve had in Sri Lanka! The resort also offers a free ride to the bus/train station. This was really helpful, especially since our bus was canceled, and the driver assisted us in finding another way to continue our travels. I consider this stay to be an incredibly affordable option with 5-star service. All our needs were attended to, and we slept well in our beautiful room.

Authenticity is something hard to find in the hotelier business. But there's no lack of it at Cinnamon citadel. Place was exceptionally clean, staff were immensely helpful at every point. Authentic srilankan cuisine has never come close to perfection. Services offered were flexible and payment didn't feel like a headache. Perfect for families and couples looking to find some peace.

Kandy, often called the cultural capital of Sri Lanka, is a city that blends history, nature, spirituality, and urban life in a uniquely charming way. Located in the central hill country, it remains one of the most visited cities in the island. Kandy has a calm, scenic, and slightly old-world charm. It is less hectic than Colombo but more active than smaller hill towns, offering a perfect balance for travelers who want culture, greenery, and city convenience in one place. The Temple of the Sacred Tooth Relic (Sri Dalada Maligawa) is the city’s most iconic attraction and sacred to Buddhists worldwide. The city is a UNESCO World Heritage Site due to its deep cultural heritage and preserved traditions. Kandy is rich in tradition, music, dance, and ancient rituals, making it a paradise for cultural enthusiasts.

We lived here as children. Our father taught at Zahira College. We had contacted them and they received is kindly and showed us around. We found the house where we lived and the lady there was very friendly. Our father's friend's son and daughter gave us lunch at their resort. All that was great.

We had a fantastic stay at Symphony Homes during our visit to Kandy. The villa looks exactly like the photos — modern, very clean, spacious, and beautifully maintained. The peaceful location was perfect, yet only a short drive to Kandy city and major attractions. The private garden was lovely to relax in, and the fully equipped kitchen made our stay even more comfortable. The host was extremely friendly and helpful, always quick to respond and made sure we had everything we needed. Highly recommended for families, couples, or anyone looking for a peaceful private villa in Kandy!

Kandy is a beautiful town with so much to see and do.

Kandy is a beautiful town with so much to see and do. It’s the perfect central base for exploring nearby highlights like Nuwara Eliya and other major sightseeing spots. The famous Kandy–Ella train ride is a wonderful experience with stunning views. Kandy Lake is lovely for an evening walk, and the local markets — especially the Sunday market — are absolutely worth visiting. The Dalada Maligawa (Temple of the Tooth) is a must-see; try to go in the evening when it’s cooler and the atmosphere is even more peaceful. Overall, Kandy is a charming town that offers culture, scenery, and convenience all in one.
