Rain Forest Star, hotel in Deniyaya

Rain Forest Star is set in Deniyaya and features a garden and a restaurant. The accommodation offers a 24-hour front desk, airport transfers, room service and free WiFi throughout the property.

I have only good thoughts when I am thinking about this place. When I arrived I got greeted by Prubad and his wife with a big smile. Even when it was already passed lunchtime they asked me if I wanted lunch after my long trip.The pictures on the site do not really justice. It is a lot nicer. The place is new, the bathroom is super. There is a shower for cold and hot water. Prubad and his wife will do anything to make you feel at home. The first night I just been sitting on the terrace watching the thunderstorm and the fireflies flying around...it was wonderful. They have a small menu where you can choose from for breakfast, lunch and diner because you are in the jungle and there is not much around. You do not need to look for a tourguide, you can do it with them. You have different choices for tours and Prubad knows a lot about nature. I can write here a whole story how good it was but will not do that. Do not hesitate if you want to stay in the rainforest. You will not regret it

Rainforest cabin, hotel in Deniyaya

Located in Deniyaya, Rainforest cabin offers 3-star accommodation with a garden, a terrace and a restaurant. Each room includes a patio.

A serene space in the heart of the jungle, surrounded by trees & peaceful scenery. You have to cross 2 streams to get to the property, making it a very magical experience. The host was very attentive, going above & beyond for us during our stay. He also took us on a hike in the area, which was one of the best hikes we’ve done. It gives you a true glimpse into rural Sri Lankan life, a highlight of our trip. We also went on a tour of Sinharaja, organised by the host, which was also amazing. We couldn’t recommend this space more.

    We did not visit deniyaya village at all but the area close to the rainforest is beautiful...the great thing about it is that it has not yet become touristy so everything at the moment seems more local and real. Not to expect too much from food,just simple local homemade

    Super.

    Super. + Simplicity is the tranquility and friendliness of the owners. Owner took us on a forest tour and showed us a lot of animals we'd never seen alone. The complete visit with the waterfalls was the most beautiful.

    Close to Singharaja Rain forest.

    Close to Singharaja Rain forest. You have also some good tourist spots which everyone can enjoy. Choice of restaurants is less. All are basic with nothing flashy. If you are depending on public transportation it is well connected to Galle and Matara from where we can get Highway buses to Colombo. Not developed as a tourist place

    Fantastic place I have been many times. the property has a bridge to enter that is broken for months now. no way a vehicle can enter or go up to the ticket counter due to this. vehicles should be parked about few KM off the site. Sinharaja is a heavenly place.

    We really enjoyed our stay in the Evergreen Villa a lot. The room is really nice and very clean. The Villa has good food and is located right next to Sinharaja rainforest. Saman, the owner of the hotel is very nice and did an adventure tour through the rainforest with us. (He does different tours, depending on how long you want to walk 😉) He knows a lot about the forest and the animals that live there. We had a great time! Thank you 'samahara Saman' 😁

    The host is very friendly and hospitable. Host also had few fusion cuisines. We ordered Fried rice for lunch and it was accompanied with devilled chicken and one portion was adequate for two adults. Then we ordered srilankan savoury omlet and Kerala Dum Rotti for dinner and it was yummy. This was one of the fusion cuisine. The view from the property is great and you could spot birds and monkeys on the nearby trees from the comfort of balcony.

    What a wonderful place! The room was a bit small, but very clean and had everything we needed. No AC, but the fan was quite enough and a big bathroom. The family is very friendly and provide delicious meals. Vino knows all about the jungle and is a good bird guide as well. He showed.us around morning, day and night. He also provided transport to and from Sinharaja. We were sad to leave soon after 2 days.

    The name says it all - it is a few charming wooden houses by the river and waterfalls. Absolutely stunning, secluded location for those looking for eco experience far away from civilization! The host will help you organize all your trips around Sinharaja at a very good price. I couldn’t recommend this place more - you need to check it with your own eyes!

    Good memorable overnight stay in the hills of Sinharaja. Relaxing views, friendly host, clean room, mosquito repellent in the room is provided. Your own transport is highly recommended, as there is nothing around accessible by short walk. Dinner can be ordered on the place.
