This wasn't our first stay, so we obviouly like this place. The manager Anand couldn't have been kinder. He looked after us like super VIPs. He was everywhere making sure that we were fine. A big thank you to him. We forgot a swim suit and he offered to send it by courier service to our next hotel, which he did. The hotel itself is small and not for everyone. The rooms needs a complete rework - they don't do this place justice. They are in a poor state. But the location is incredible and I hope, this will never change - please never cut ANY of the trees! This is the biggest asset- the jungle and all its noises, the beautiful light filtering through the canopy.

We enjoyed our stay so much. The quietness, the nature, the view on the mountain from balcony. Super nice staff. We walked from hotel 2 km to sinharaya rainforest unesco heritage entrance. We were mesmerized by the nature in the rainforest and the surrounding. The hotel is a Super place.

This was our second stay here which was 7 years ago. The property has much improved and is far better than it used to be. We only stayed as it is close to the entrance for the rainforest walk but we were pleased we chose here again due to the improvements and the staff were far more friendly than they were last time. Breakfast was nice but basic, we didn't have the evening meal. I certainly think it deserves more than a 6 score as shown on booking.com so I have given an 8. It is expensive but there isn't much choice at this entrance to the rainforest. We have visited from both entrances and we consider this to be the best and quietest.

We were travelling in the area and required somewhere to stay. Booking a room was easy, and we were welcomed on arrival by the owner, who was very welcoming and invited us in. We were offered tea or coffee, while our bags were taken to our room. The room was very comfortable, with all the required facilities, and even had a nice balcony to relax on. Plenty of parking for our tuk tuk, and the owner was able to give us plenty of advice on all the great places to visit in the area, showing us photos of the waterfalls and gem mines in the area. Definitely a great place to stay if you are in the area!

This is an amazing place for nature and bird lovers. The owners created a fabulous place to relax and enjoy the sounds of nature in a very comfortable lodge. If you choose the option with the bungalows you even have a big private pool. The vegetarian food is delicious and the owners everything to make you feel "home". Highly recommended!

Exceptional location, quality of facilities and customer service. Combination of pool and river (and nearby waterfall) was a massive hit with kids. Also very close to access to rainforest. Staff very helpful, running us around in Tuk Tuks etc. A special place.

The location is on the border of the Sinharaja National Rain Forest Reserve, so visiting the place is a short drive away. The temperature in the area is comfortable and you can stay comfortably with the aid of a fan. There isn't much else to see other than Sinharaja Forest.
