All guest rooms come with air conditioning, a fridge, a minibar, a kettle, a shower, free toiletries and a desk. Featuring a private bathroom with a hairdryer, rooms at the resort also feature free WiFi, while selected rooms also feature a balcony. Guest rooms feature a safety deposit box. The property is truly lovely with a small beach right on the reef. The main beach is about a 30 min walk or 5 min ride, but most of the time we were quite happy on the premises. The rooms are spacious and comfortable - I loved the beanbag chair on the balcony for relaxation. The restaurant onsite is a bit slow but very tasty and staff are friendly.

Situated in Deniyaya, Sinharaja Kurulu Ella Eco Resort features free WiFi, and guests can enjoy a garden, a terrace and a restaurant.

There is a private bathroom with bidet in some units, along with free toiletries, a hairdryer and slippers.

A water park is also available for guests at the lodge. This was one of the best places we've been to on our trip to Sri Lanka. It's in the middel of nature, there is a beautiful waterfall where you can dip into the water and even get fish therapy about a 5min walk from the Hotel. The glass bungalow was incredible, the room was clean, very comfortable and there is a mini fridge with snacks and beverages. Apart from the room, the host and his wife are lovely people, so friendly, warm and welcoming. We had a tasty welcome drink, then they showed us the way to the waterfall, before dinner, the host took us on a little walk to see the surrounding area and after dinner he took us on a little night walk around the house to see the little animals living there. He gave us much information about plants and animals and also organized a guided trip to the rainforest the following day. His wife prepares breakfast and dinner herself and it was by far the best we've eaten on our trip. The accomodation is not easy to find and to access if you are not travelling by car, but you can inform the host and they organize a pickup at a reasonable price. This wasn't a negative point for us as we enjoy the sounds of nature, but if you're a light sleeper it's fair to mention that the sound of the waterfall is quite loud and you can also hear the frogs and circadas quite a lot. That's definitely a pro when you, like us, like to be surrounded by the sounds of nature but may be a con if you want to be in a more quiet place. We really recommend to visit this beautiful place when you are travelling in the Sinharaja area! Thank you so much for everything!! :)

Situated in the Mirissa Beach district in Mirissa, 500 metres from Whale Watching Mirissa, Resort of Happiness features air-conditioned rooms with free WiFi throughout the property and views of garden. Guests can enjoy the on-site restaurant. This place is well located: close to the main road (so you can always reach the nearest supermarket by walking), close to the beach, but far enough away that it is quiet and peaceful. Very nice host, so friendly and helpful. They serve great breakfasts, some of the best I have had here. Also they can help you with your laundry. We got our clothes back perfectly washed and smelling great. The room itself was nice and had a spacious balcony which was nice to sit on in the evenings.
