We are a traveling family. Truly, this is one of the most enchanted places we had the privilege to stay in. It is unique because you are in the middle of the jungle, without walls. The place is very relaxing, yet you feel the jungle, in the good way. The stuff is most delicate and gentle. The facility is luxurious. We had a great time. All the payments for your stay are dedicated to the preservation of the forest. Wonderful.

    Really lovely setting and very helpful/friendly owner. They organised rafting for us which was brilliant and reasonably priced. They also lent us rubber rings as there is a little natural pool in the river right by them - gorgeous. Very quiet and peaceful and great value. Would recommend.

    this is the most amazing and magical place in Sri Lanka and the host is an absolute treasure. I loved every minute of it and will defienietly come back. It’s an offsite location, with a natural pool and waterfall. Thank you so much Mona for making our stay so special 🩷

    The guesthouse is located on the top of the hill so you are reliant on a car to get anywhere. Our host Lionel was always available to take us in his car wherever we needed to go. The staff are super friendly and helpful too and will do anything to enhance your stay. They will also arrange rafting/canyoning through Team 39 just down the road.

    Beautiful and quiet place in the middle of the nature with a very friendly host. Next to the accommodation is a natural swimming pool with a lot of tiny waterfalls. You can also do a little hike to reach the source of the waterfall. And last but not least, the food is very tasty and fresh. I highly recommend this place!

    The host was very supportive. Provided delicious meals with a wide variety. There are few natural pools nearby with easy and private access. The location has a nice view with a quiet surrounding. It's conveniently situated just 5 to 10 minutes away from Kitulgala, allowing easy access to all the adventurous activities this area has to offer. If you are a person who would love a homely stay by being closer to nature, this would be an ideal stay.

    Laura was an excellent host who, with her colleagues, kindly welcomed us and looked after us well during our short stay. Great location and amazing views from the pool. Our room had hot water and a nice balcony. There was refillable water available which was a great option. They accommodated our request for an early breakfast and organised a tuk tuk to the train station which we were grateful for.
