For the location alone, this deserves a 10. Just across from Lions Rock, you can pop across the road and enter the property in no time. The room is as in the pictures, good data connectivity, and the shower is warm. I was worried about rain in the morning but got lucky so had an excellent hike up. Breakfast was amazing and the host super kind and helpful: arranged my transport to Kandy directly with them.

We had a wonderful stay at this unique accommodation right in the middle of the jungle! With rooftop viewpoints, a tranquil pool, and outstanding service, this place truly offers a special experience. Even though it's located a bit off the beaten path, the atmosphere more than makes up for it—you might not want to leave at all. The included breakfast was so generous it practically lasted us all day. In the evening, there was a great selection of local and Western dishes made with high-quality ingredients (though portions were on the smaller side). The peaceful pool area was perfect for unwinding, and the staff really took Sri Lankan hospitality to the next level. Occasional evening power fluctuations were handled smoothly with a temporary diesel generator, but it switched off well before bedtime, leaving only the soothing jungle sounds. For mobile work, this place may not be ideal—the Wi-Fi relies on a mobile connection, which wasn't strong enough for demanding online tasks. But for a relaxing holiday segment in Sri Lanka, this place gets our full recommendation! We arrived by public bus from Kandy, changing at Dambulla, and then took a Tuk Tuk from the Sigiriya bus stop to the accommodation for 1000 rupees. During our stay, we rented a scooter in Sigiriya, while other guests used rental Tuk Tuks to get around.

This lovely home stay stays in our hearts for a long time. Family was so welcoming and we helt very safe and like home while staying here. Host helped us with everything and let us have their services the whole next day after staying. She also helped us to find services that we wanted and always wanted the best quality for our money. She booked us a safari and helped to choose the best one for us Dinner and breakfast were amazing and we also got extra lunch when asked. Kids took us to see their village and garden. Those were such a lovely tours! Garden and a view were great. If you want to stay and enjoy your time with heartful family, this is the place. We would come back anytime!
