Small cute boutique hotel, good place as a starting point to Sigiriya and the surrounding area. The hotel has a nice pool and very well designed rooms. Rich breakfast and surprisingly good coffee included. The staff is great and took nice care of us. Especially the service of the driver Amil, who drove us all the time in a tuk tuk and recommended many interesting places to see.

Back of Beyond - Pidurangala, hotel in Dambulla

Set amidst a natural landscape, Back of Beyond – Pidurangala offers a peaceful getaway in Sigiriya.

Location - amazing, in the middle of the jungle. Keep in mind that it's quite far from the city, however very close to good viewpoints of Sigiriya rock. Staff- extremely nice and helpful. Food - you don't have to go to the city for food, you can order something at the place. Everything was delicious. Price - reasonable for what you get. Houses - very comfortable, nice and clean. It was an unbelievable experience, which we expected and were looking forward to, however remember that you're in the jungle and tree house is quite exposed, you might expect bugs or monkeys to come into the house. You have to keep your things in the drawers and if you're extremely afraid of being in the forest at night, this might not be a place for you.

This felt like a luxury home stay. The people there are so welcoming and friendly. All food is cooked to order, it felt like they were cooking for us at their home and it was also delicious. English breakfast was a little basic, stick to the Sri Lankan but our evening dinner was wonderful!

    The family were so lovely. The lady did our washing and Sosa was rally helpful giving us lifts, they both were very kind and helped us planned our days. The breakfast was different most days, they made us a packed lunch and gave us loads of fruit to try when we booked a safari, can’t reccomend enough! The room was spacious, really nice shower.

    Our time at the Kandalama Lodge was beautiful. We felt special from the beginning. Everything was clean and tidy, the interior and decoration was on point. The bathroom outside was a bliss. We stayed at the villa with a private pool which was luxury as well. We felt so at home! Madushan made sure that we had a nice trip to Dabula and organized a driver for us. He made sure that everything was perfect. The food - try the Sri Lankan curry it is soo good- and the cocktails were amazing! We highly recommend to stay there!

    The Owner (Nuwan) who was always there was charming and very attentive. The room was very comfortable, and the bathroom is large and spacious. We booked a safari with them, and it was great; we saw about 80 wild elephants in one day, which was amazing. They also arranged a Car for us to go see the sunrise at Pidurangala.

    Perfect place to relax at the end of the day… or to spend the entire day! Only a handful of lodges and beautifully styled. Very clean inside the lodges and around the pool/garden. Loved the open air bathroom.

    A small number of beautiful lodges in beautiful green surroundings. Everything fits together perfectly and is of good quality. Very friendly and helpful owner and staff. The food is more expensive than outside but it is simply fantastic. We had one of the best vegetarian curry selection cooked after our preferences. The breakfast is also really good.
